Random Lurkerz

Today im posting some clips from Mark White's Random Lurkerz . He definitely made something out of these videos that set them way apart from the homey feeling that Mutiny had. For some reason this video didn't get the hype outside of Utah that it should have, but the Lizard and Dyet surely did. Also peep Sean Hadley's part you may remember him form P Stones Shotgun video dude ripps.

MUTINY

Although the SLC is one of the most trendy fake places ive ever been they're skateboarding scene is the direct opposite. This group has been doing their own thing for some time now, the only thing they share with the rest of the city is that they are still inside a bubble, an untapped resource that few get out of.They have their own drama, their own mag and their own set of local videos apart from the rest of the world. Its awesome, these dudes are throwing hammers just for each other, work their butt off for their 3 minutes in the local theater.

Their lifestyle luckily has been documented in three different video series by three different filmers. Shelby Menzel's MUTINY series, The Random Lurkerz trilogy by MArk White and Eric Jensen is about to put out the second WEASt video. Each filmer is totally different so you get to see the scene from a different angle in each series. I thought i would give you a little visual history or timeline of the trailers ending with EJ's new Weast Infection Trailer. I think local smaller videos are the best but these are not that, this is more of a torch being passed to each one of these filmers to do with it what they want. Mutiny is more RAW, Mark White brought in major filming booms, EJ's on that Gangsta Shit but they all have the same focus.






Here are the two teasers for Shelby's Mutiny 4 the horseshoe pits were actually in my backyard when i lived in SLC for 8 months and these trailers were what i sent to my friends and family as my reason for up rooting from Brooklyn to SLC.

GRINDING!

Has anyone noticed how tight the Girls scouts game is. I mean they got shit on lock. Once a year they come out on corners all over the city. I rolled up yesterday on a troop at 5th and Market trying to cop some Samoas and they already had sold out, but you better believe they told me we will be back tomorrow btwn 1-3 but the girls 18th and castro may still have that killa. They have a product that no one else has and everybody wants, im still itchin for some still itchin for some thin mints waiting for those girls on 2nd & Mission to open up shop. They even have limited edition cookies or cookies that are deadstock to keep you comin back. If it wasn't for the Internet i would still be chasin after those lemon coolers they were pushin back in 03. So how do they just take shit over just like that? Why isnt anyone trying to take their gate or push them out? Because they are bigger than you think, the Girl Scouts roll mad deep and are very organized, im talking county clicks not just states. The best part about their hustle is that they use little girls in cute green berets to sell their product ,everyone knows thats what they are doing but deems it harmless. They just cant see that that cute beret is the same as a bandanna, those badges are stripes. Vests are classically uniform for "members only" gangs such as the Hells Angles, Outlaws, even the younger bike gang the Rough Riders. Im not saying don't by the cookies, shit I respect their hustle, im just saying with all the things that have been showing their true face the last few years, just always look at the whole picture
