Rainy And Bored, So I'll Blog

Today was one of the most boring Sundays I have experienced in a long time. After hanging with our boy Arjun who just came home from Australia and getting down on the dance floor at Hardware it was a day of bumming around and watching the most TV I have in awhile. However there are some good aspects of a rainy Sunday I suppose, myself being a optimistic can seem to find the good in anything. Sunday is a solid day of TV, today I watched MIB and some of that Wipeout show, which by the way is hilarious. Sunday is also a guaranteed good meal courtesy of Mom or Grandma.

Doing some ordering tomorrow! We're getting closer...

Glad to see our man Arjun home, we've missed him and plan on keeping the good times coming!


Wale's new mixtape! Get it here!

Michael Jackson Trumps Any Other Topic Today


Shocked. It's the only word that comes to mind when I heard of my man MJ passing Thursday afternoon. It seems like one of those staple events in one's life. 30 years from now someone will ask me where I was when I heard the news and I'll be able to recall it in an instant. I suppose we all know death is inevitable but this was too soon.

I don't care what you think of the man, but you need to respect him. Michael Jackson is the greatest American entertainer of all time. He might be the best performer that our world will ever see and we need to be grateful. Anyone alive has liked or likes a Jackson song, Halloween we hear Thriller, dance parties we hear Bille Jean. Michael is always going to be apart of us.

That being said, if you can find the Thriller album, I recommend you buy it and keep it forever.

On the other hand, last night I was able to finally see our boy DJ Dstar get it going at Bayou. Myself along with Corey, Julian of Crush and Stephen hung out upstairs and watched everyone get rowdy to some scratching courtesy of Dstar while sipping on our beverage of choice. Someday I will be able to stay for his whole session but this teaser was a great preview.

Brett let me peek at his new designs today for the fall, I was already impressed and they have not even left the computer screen yet! I can't express how excited I am for this fall line up to drop! Just make sure you check back for updates or add us on Twitter!

Always,
Chest

Buy Thriller. Now.

So much gum. I hope Bass didn't stick to it.

Burnin' Up

Yesterday I had the pleasure of taking my first trip to the beach of the summer! It was a perfect day for it, the temperature hovered around a solid 75 degrees and I was burning up out on the sand tossing the Kan-Jam frisbee around. Any of our non-Buffalo readers should check out the official Kan-Jam website to see what I am talking about. By the end of the day when I got back home I was looking like a fresh boiled lobster. Straight up, it hurts. I was rocking some SPF 4 for my first trip this summer which wasn't such a smart idea. Should have went for some 15 I suppose. Anyways, if you see me and I am peeling like a maniac, you'll know why.

After soothing my tanning wounds for a bit I was readying myself for a meeting with the members of Dazzle still at home. Brett, Stephen, Corey and I sat down for about 2 hours yesterday and got a lot of solid work done and keeping the wheels of Dazzle in motion with Seabass on the road and Brett to soon be departing to Rome, Italy for the month of July. Our new caps should be hitting us soon and the ordering of new tees is upon us! Very exciting! Keep in touch to hear of the finalized release date and party for Dazzle Me Formal's fall line.

Cookout Pictures!


This weather outside right now is just putting me into a nap mode. However, to avoid a 2 or 3 hour waste of my evening I chose to blog! And it is a great time for me to be blogging because Brett hit me with some pictures from our cookout on Sunday afternoon. Once again, Thanks to everyone that came out to show us some love and check out our banner. Everyone has a lot of fun and there was plenty of sun and 64 hot dogs and 40 hamburgers that got devoured along with assorted other snacks. Kitty's aim with a water balloon was also shown as she attempted, but unsuccessfully tried to hit me. Our banner will be out rain or shine all summer, drive on by 1032 Elmwood and check it out.

Sadly, yesterday Bass left us again! Only good things came come out of his tour managing though. Bass will be on the road with The Summer Set on their tour with The Cab all summer. Drop him a line and show Dazzle some love by wearing your gear to the show!

Lately I have been itching to get some shopping done, my next investment; Desert boots. It just needs to be done!

Sidenote: Arjun & Corey will be home soon! Psyched!

Always,
Chest

Deelicious

Alright, alright I am getting back on my blogging after being on the down low for a few days. Straight up, today is a great day. I woke up feeling full of energy and I am being productive and in a non stop mood that will hopefully end with some drinks with Bass as he departs for tour tomorrow with The Summer Set. Anyone planning on going to see the show make sure you drop a line to Bass. On the subject of travel, Arjun will be coming home the 28th of June. I am looking forward to seeing my home boy again! It has been too long and Dazzle misses its boy. Also, Brett will be hanging in NYC for this weekend coming up as he prepares to go to Rome, Italy for all of July. Apparently I am the only member of Dazzle who doesn't travel. That is soon to change...

Who ever knew left over steak could be so good? I sliced it up nice and thin and threw some sauce over it and made myself a little side salad and had a feast that will keep this good day rocking. On this subject of good eats, anyone who came by the BBQ yesterday on Elmwood, thanks for coming to hang for a bit! We all had a great time listening to some Flo and assorted tunes via Stephen and his booming P.A. system. The dogs and burgers were being grilled all day with the brews flowing and just a great chill vibe we expected from this event. Pictures to follow shortly this week!

Always,
Chest

I've Been Known To Wear A Bow-Tie

Finally the rain has hit Buffalo this afternoon. Totally killing the vibe of having my windows down and pumping that Flo hard. Today I updated our Dazzle Twitter page more than I think I ever have. I think it is a sign of how hard I work at work. Thanks to everyone that is following, I am noticing more and more everyday! Solid! Bass and Stephen just got back from NYC for the weekend. I was pretty jealous once I learned of them hanging with Flo in Central Park. However this is just an excuse for all of the Dazzle crew to go back and hang for a weekend this summer. Speaking of summer, it is approaching extremely fast it seems.

Last week myself, Bass and Shaant picked up the Dazzle banner that is soon to be draped over the balcony at the crib on Elmwood. It looks so dope! The company did an amazing job for us and we're all excited to see this babe fly in the Buffalo sunshine. Check a sneak below and drive by next week to see the banner in full flight.

I've heard so many great things about the newly released Hangover movie and can't wait to check that out sometime this week. Along with The Hangover I am so down to see the new Disney/Pixar movie UP. I don't think Disney has ever released a disappointing movie so I want to see what they for this one. And, 3D?? Uh, Yes. Oh yo, Toy Story 3 trailer is out!
