M83.
Saw M83 last night. It was really good. If you haven’t heard them. Imagine 80’s pop, synths, ambient, dancy and pretty sounds all rolled into one band.
Check out their new record. Saturdays Youth.
Its Friday and nice out. Time to ride the moped around town.
HOWL.
Hey.
Some of my best friends have been working on something for awhile now. They wrote, recorded, produced, designed and built it from scratch. They are now giving the entire record away for free. The record is great. Check it out and if you like it, tell all of your friends to check it out. You’ve got nothing to lose.

Re-Fresh.
Just finished painting one of the big walls in my home. It feels good to get things like that done. I’m excited to finish the rest of the house, put art up, get a new desk, a bookcase and possibly an Eames chair. I’ll post photos as I finish projects.
The weather has been beautiful for the past 2 days. I was riding the moped around the city and it felt wonderful. I can’t wait...

Okay. Here we go.
I got their on time to see the entire show which was good because Lupe’s set was pretty good. He also brought my friend Mano up to play a track from his group He Say She Say. It went over well.
Then N.E.R.D played. They had two really really good drummers and like 50 people on stage and only like 2 good songs. Kind of a bummer that between all the smashes that Chad and...

The day has come. The glow in the dark tour is in Chicago today and I finally got a free ticket. I almost gave up and then De’Mar showed me that Diddy video where he talks about how the show changed his life and I knew I had to go. 2 days later my friend Christine told me she had an extra ticket and that I could have it. I’ll post about the show later tonight or tomorrow. I’m...

Back Home.
Its always good to be home but California was very inspiring for me. Seeing beautiful houses on the ocean makes me dream so big and think harder. The soundtrack of the trip was definitely “Lollipop” by Lil Wayne.
Check out this really great menswear blog I’ve come across. It’s basically just a ton of clothes and accessories that I want to buy, already picked out for...

Its 91 here right now. Beautiful. About to go shopping with young suh and Stephanie. Maybe we’ll visit De’Mar tomorrow. Just wanted to say that I had a wonderful night last night. I love you guys. Congrats.
Thats all I got. I’ve got a tofu scramble to eat and clothes to buy.
Hi JD.
Whats up with the weather-sistable?
Its May 15th and there hasn’t been a beautiful day in Chicago yet. What’s the deal?
Stephanie is blasting The Knife in the bathroom. We are about to go out to some fashion event that she worked on. I don’t know too many details other than there is free booze.
We are getting a T1 line at the office. So stoked. Blazing fast internet is always a plus.
I gotta figure out...
Today.
I’m doing Hey Chris’ radio show tonight at 7pm (central). I think you can listen at fearlessradio.com and call to ask us ridiculous questions at 312.224.8273
Its gonna be fun.
I got this link from everyone! So ridiculous. If you live in Chicago. Find your alderman and stop this from happening. http://savechicagoculture.org/
