To Darrin Hudson: OKAY PLAYER HOLIDAY.

About Me

Name: jeffstaple

Location: New York, New York, United States

I think everyone had a "Darrin Hudson" in their lives. Darrin Hudson was in my high school, back in Marlboro, NJ. You know, that person that you had to one-up all the time. Didn't matter what it was: Gear, hair, grades, sports, whatever...it was ON. Well for Darrin and I...it was kicks. Plain and simple. Oddly enough, in a school with over 1000 kids, me and him were the only 2 really into sneakers back then. This is my blog dedicated to Darrin. This is to tell Darrin that I'm still out there, and if he wants to battle, here it is son!! Bring it!! I've since lost touch with Darrin, but thanks to him, you all get to check out the kicks I have amassed over the years. So it is here, that I will archive every pair of shoes I own. It’ll include detailed photos, a grading system, a little tidbit behind each one and every single one will be available for purchase. (Simply POST A COMMENT with your offer). Some other little goodies sprinkled throughout also. Even if I updated a different shoe every week, it would take me about 3 years to complete this project. So sit back and enjoy! The project begins January 1st, 2006...

OKAY PLAYER HOLIDAY.

The Roots had a very intimate gathering at The Box in New York City this past week. The last time i saw them was this summer at Nokia Theater, so this was really cool to be able to check them in a venue where I was literally sitting on the stage with them. It was a very relaxed atmosphere. The Roots band came out, Black Thought basically did one song. Then the band went into their Masters Of War symphony. And then Bilal came out and did a couple of songs...and that was pretty much it. But overall, a nice little nugget of a performance.
