I see. Okay, then I misread that part, my apologies. Glad you had a huge turnout. We will be there next year for BAM 10!!

Sometimes I really wonder...

For sure. LIC is AWESOME. Everyone was awesome and really nice. Definitely nice to have such kind vendors who are willing to give so much to others.

Huck is the man. Designing Ken Blocks car eh? Great announcement. Next time you better play football. haha

G-reg from GST awesome as well. So the cool mann. You better play football next time as well.

I'm sure next year's BAM will be just as great.

Dude, Huck is the coolest guy ever! I could talk to that guy for year and years on end with no interruption! I'm so proud of him and proud to have his skull on our beloved shirts!!! I've been flossing my hoodie and shirt the last couple days and showing off my skull

I know exactly what you mean. It's so natural for him to just talk to anyone and carry on a conversation for days. That's what's awesome about him and the rest of the vendors. It's not all business all day everyday. Talking to him and the rest of the guys is like talking to your long time friend that you knew forever. haha

HECK yeah. Everyone better be proud of that skull. Apparently that skull is quite *cachingg $$$$* The shirt design this year is outstanding as well. One of my most favorite designs yet.

It's dope to be able to hang out at their tents for a few minutes to shoot the sh*t for a while. Always friendly people. Hell, I met Paul for the first time today as I was leaving. LOL.

I think you left out credit for those who initiated the caravans for each area. They did a great job too.

Thanks all (vendors, organizers, members) for the great event. I especially want to thank the cooks and DJs for the great food and music. The DJs were indeed amazing.

I like to think that Adam and I are always approachable with anything; even if its something one would think is silly. I feel that's my role/job...to answer the intriacte to the simplistic. If I/we don't know the answer, I will answer as such and not make it up on the fly, its not our style...we are not always selling something but rather discussing your goals/plans/options.

Thanks to those who took the time to say hi and chat with us!

*I agree on Huck, he's been a customer/friend for a long time now...very loyal and one of the most talented guys I've ever come across...shoot we have a wall dedicated to him in our lounge area

Funniest thing happened today...

I was in deep thought and was trying to execute like 10 things at once when I came up to Tommy from GST and was about to ask him where "Greg" (G-Reg) was since I needed to ask him something, and since I was really dehydrated, lacking sleep and trying to make things all happen at once, I go up to Tommy and say "Hey, where's what's his face", referring to Greg of course (And Greg is a long time friend of mine and I see him weekly at least, and we're always chatting it up, and we talk on the phone too, so we know each other well), but for some reason my brain just froze and I couldn't get out a rational thought nor could I remember the name "Greg" for some reason... so I stood there stuttering for like 30 seconds trying to think of Greg's name as Tommy looked at me like I was the biggest imbicile on earth... He starts listing off names which threw me off even further, then finally the name "Greg" comes to mind and I yell out "The dude who works behind your desk!!! GREG!!!"...

They all thought I was on drugs...

It was pretty damn funny actually...

Then about 30 mins later I did the same thing to my wife, I just couldn't get her name out...

Talk about stress, heat, no sleep , no food, no water + ADD = that



I'll never live that down with Greg or my wife... EVER!


My wife: "Daniel, YOU FORGOT MY NAME?!?!?!?"

Me: "Suicide"
