Description:
Don't Come is closing its doors forever this Saturday, with accompanying crazy deals. We've lamented this at length, but the fact remains Misa and Tim have made a great contribution to the Melbourne scene over the past few years, not least with their amazing gallery space, which has delivered a long list of top shelf exhibitions and cracking opening parties.

You've probably heard, they're going to ban lightglobes. Also, Don't Come is closing. Both sad announcements no doubt, but it could work out for you because Misha and Tim are auctioning their giant neon sign! Tim says bidding starts at five grand, "It cost $4000 to make, art appreciates y'all." We're sweetening the deal though, because if you buy it we'll email you this picture of Kanye West at a slightly higher resolution.

Once an avid consumer of colourful confectionary, Maurice Golotta is now on a health kick. In fact, he's made it his mission to brand sugary breakfast cereals as the poison they are and steer kids away from the sinister antics of messrs Toucan Sam, Tony the Tiger and Snap, Crackle and Pop.

Skateboard photography is really tricky. Not only do you have to deal with the usual factors like lighting, composition and split-second timing, you also have to be able to skate yourself. Partly, this helps you appreciate your subject, but mainly it means you can escape from irate security guards.

Getting an independent magazine out the door in this day and age is an absolute NIGHTMARE. It's sort of like, dunno, dragging an angry donkey up a hill. And one of your legs is broken. Congratulations then, to The New Order magazine for dragging their second angry mule up that bastard.

I've often wondered how NWA's Straight Outta Compton found its way into the Millicent public library in the first place. Gangsta fairies, perhaps? Needless to say, I was drawn to it like a moth to the flame. And even more needless to say, the tape was hella overdue when I returned it. You think I paid the late fees? Hell no.
