Check it, forget it.  You almost certainly heard it here first.

I was on a shoot in Big Sur and I mentioned Falcon to Jason O’Dell (a superb photographer by the way).  He and his assistant dropped their sandwiches when I told them that these guys were our friends and that we worked with them in various capacities (I must add that thankfully none of those capacities involved the actual building of bikes!).  They then proceeded to tell me what they knew about how Ian built this, the latest Falcon - The Kestrel.  And it was a lot (none of which made much sense to me as they were talking about overhead manifold sprockets and diagnostic bearing attaches, or something like that).

Now, the Bullet, being the first Falcon Motorcycle (that belongs to actor Jason Lee) has a place in history that can never be taken away, so it was a tall order for Ian Barry and Amarylis Knight to create something that could even compete with the Bullet, let alone surpass it.

Well in many people’s eyes, they did just that.

So bike lovers, wait until you’re alone, then get your tissues at the ready.  You’re gonna need them.

BTW… this video is in HD so go to full screen baby.

Well now he’s a finalist in the Doritos King Of Ads competition.  Out of 2000 entries Rob’s entry is down to the last three, meaning that he’s a finalist.  All credit to all three finalists, but I think that Rob’s has the edge but that doesn’t mean anything unless everyone votes for him.  So my friends, simply click on the link below and help ensure that Rob gets the nod.

Thanks everyone!

Ah, yes, every now and again, it seems to come together.  I am pretty sure we brought the house down.

But… here’s what I love about this picture.  The dude from The Bravery… notice he’s so drunk that he forgot to do up his belt.

Angels & Kings.  ’Spect.

The latest MYMAG is being curated by none other than one of the world’s leading spiritual guru’s and author - Deepak Chopra.

Mr Choprs’s MYMAG gives a unique insight into his extraordinary life and teachings, whilst providing a fascinating inside look at never before seen photos and correspondences with some of the worlds most famous people, including President Clinton, Michael Jackson and George Harrison to name but a few.

The connection to Harrison also indirectly lead to the world’s most famous living illustrator - Alan Aldridge (excuse me Ma’am but where is his knighthood?) who was The Beatles’ ‘official’ illustrator,  creating an absolutely stunning cover image for Deepak (below).  Aldridge and Deepak also happen to share many similarities in their practice of Buddist philosophies, so this arrangement was seemingly a match made in, um… The Tao?

And the intimate relationship that he shared with Michael Jackson is presented with incredible, never before seen photos of them both in extraordinarily personal moments together.

You can pre-order your copy by visiting mymag.com

Peace and Love to all.

As a nice coincidence it also happened to be a good friend of Miss Sixty’s birthday that very same evening.  And so it was that the stage was set for a birthday party for international film and TV actress Jenni Baird, and a celebration of the Miss Sixty summer collection.

The night was fantastic.  The Flaunt Magazine team (our media partners) were in fine form, as were Jenni and her guests (who all seemed to have a smashing time).  In fact, with the exception of the music equipment not working for the first 20 minutes (damn that dodgy serato system, what’s wrong with old fashioned vinyl… apart from the massive inconvenience?) which caused the infinitely patient and wonderful DJ Smiles Davis a few problems at the start, everything went off swimmingly.

The temperature was suitably tropical, partly because of the limited air conditioning, partly because of the sexy models causing a few of the gentlemen visitors to get a bit heated under the collar, and partly because DJ Kelly Cole turned up the heat on the decks.

Then it was time to sing Jenni the happy birthday song, which we did… then we had cake… then back to the bar for one of the delicious cocktails generously provided by Metl Tequila, alongside the rather great, full open bar to the delight of the thirsty fashionistas.  Oh, and the canapes from Magnolia were delicious too!

Then it was off to Hyde for the after party, two bottles of Belvedere later (between us of course!) and it was time for home.  That’s the benefit of living on Crescent Heights… all of that just happened on our road.  1 minute taxi ride and we were back, swaying in front of the babysitter.  Good times.

Thanks to everyone at Miss Sixty, Flaunt, Lee Wallman and her team, the guys at Hyde, and everyone else involved.

‘This is my new favorite shop’ he said, ‘Well, this one and Adidas!’  That made me laugh (as Adidas were also giving him some freebees for the week’s gigs and interviews).

Ian, as the gentleman that few know that he is (but he is), posed for pictures with the store staff, who were a bit star struck I think… it’s usual for them to see Hollywood actors, but a bonafide music legend from the UK?  They don’t come over to those parts too often.

Ian wore a Ben Sherman hoodie and shades on stage at Coachella whilst Will Sergeant (founder, co-writer & guitarist) wore the Ben Sherman pinstripe suit in front of 25,000 baying fans.

And how was the gig?  I dunno.  I missed it thanks to misinformation regarding my backstage passes, and a three hour traffic jam.  That really wasn’t bunny (I’m fired).
