Finally the raffle tickets are available! We’ve made this really easy and set up a text line, so if you’d like to join us on 9/9/09 at the Worlds Smallest Festival for a kick ass day of free booze, amazing music, stand up comedy and randomness – send us a text. Even if you can’t make it but are into this whole adventure, have been enjoying the videos and want to see us pull it off, feel free to ping a text over and back this horse! We can blag this million!
This post has nothing to do with Breast Milk or blagging a million pounds so please excuse me while I go off on a whim. I’m a big motocross nerd, and have been since I was 12 years old. I have also been a big fan of Travis Pastrana for years, we all know he is nuts but later today he is attempting something seriously wild. It makes me nervous even looking at this, check this out:
What is that? Some weird rotations going on there. This trick gives me the creeps just looking at it, there is so much going on and so much that could go wrong – and from so many angles. I can’t wait to see it and seriously hope he lands on two wheels, he seems to think he has a 50/50 chance…
If none of this makes sense to you, go to a motorbike shop and sit on a big heavy motocross bike. This is ridiculous. Good luck boi!
Note: Actually there is a tenuous link to Blag a Million, if all goes to plan we will be shooting a feature at the Red Bull X-Fighters comp in Battersea in a few weeks!
Heres some leaked pics of our Human Ice Cream factory to keep you going while we edit this thing…
Craackin the eggs…
Pouring the magic potion…
Hmm…
Voila! The final goods…
Me and Donal have just tested this stuff, must say it tasted pretty damn weird. We’ll see how we feel in 24 hours and if we’re not sick, we are taking this stuff to market. Must be some fiends out there craving Human Ice Cream this summer eh? haa.
For me, one of the best parts about this project is all the wild characters it has brought together. We found this awesome old man in Putney when we had just started filming, he is hands down the best old man ever. We have his number, need to go round for a brew to film part two. Good idea?
I’ve never had to run down a street for money, but things are getting desperate down at the Blag A Million HQ.
Also, a one off MTV show documenting the whole shennigans is on the cards – ‘if‘ we book some huge bands. Which is exciting and would be amazing, but who comes first, the chicken or the egg?
So we’re going to get on the blag, we have confirmed Howard Marks, Chicken Man and Billy Bailey is nibbling around the bait. Here is a personal invite to Noel Fielding too. Fancy it Noel?
And here is a wee vid of the Barker Band sessioning at a band stand somewhere in Austin, TX during SXSW… So good.
We’ve had quite a few people asking where the hell the almighty Chicken Man No1 hit single is. Basically, to update you guys, our music guru friend and record producer Lester Woodward has just been stacked with ‘paid‘ work, so we are just waiting for a break in his schedule to jump in the studio, get the single dialed in and get the Chicken Man on his way flapping up the charts. During the interim, feel free to join the Chicken Man Facebook group and say hello to Rob. We really can’t wait to get this single out there, its one of our favorite schemes, so sit tight and we’ll keep you posted as soon as we know more.
