That's All Folks

With the kind of impetus usually found in rugby or wrestling, but suitably dressed in surfer brands (as you'd expect, with Quiksilver and Red Bull as sponsors), the crowd was chanting as one at the "That's It, That's All" premiere.

Powerful imagery in HD: risk, vertigo, bloody noses, fully-branded choppers and snow, snow and more snow. It's a curious thing, sharing the snowboarding adventure with these kids on and off the big screen.

Having said that, if Greenpeace were to catch certain excerpts from the movie - particularly the bit where the best trees are torn down to make the board - there'd most definitely be a different kind of chanting.

That's it, That's all

  • Uptown Downtown

    I remember when the bars in El Gòtico were for guiris, uptown for the pijos, Port Olímpic for the garullos, Raval for the adventurous, Gayxample for the gays, and everybody else nibbling and sampling as they saw fit.

  • Going Solo

    If you've been to Bailén 22 after it reopened as Lotus, then you'll understand why I got a bit excited when learning that women, of the paying kind,would be welcomed at another former puticlub.

  • Make-over

    Trying out a "new" bar in Barcelona is rather like going on a date with Ana Obregón: you can be sure that you'll have seen the place before and that it'll since have had a nip and tuck or two. You just won't know whether the change has been for the better or worse.

  • Photos: Globo

    Fucked From Above 1985 - Milan-based Venetian Giulia Centofante - not only designed The Bloody Beetroots' t-shirts and those of her own label, Cut (apart from being über-hot).

  • Somoslas Photos

    Did you use any fake blood this Halloween? If you did, like me and most people at the last SomosLas, you probably woke up to a red mouth/nose/arm that, no matter how much you washed, stayed that nice shade of allergy-red for a few days.
