Catchin' Up With LoveFiend
"Just got back today from a 2 week holiday in Sydney, plenty of fun nights, postering, stickering and a few drama's, I found it pretty hard putting stuff up over there, the police patrol constantly and everyday people are even on to it. The night life is crazy fun, so many fun bars! The photo above is from a suburb called Bondi.
I had one funny encounter one night, i was on my way home in a taxi from a big night out. It was about 3am when I went past a wall that i had postered earlier in the day, when I saw two people scribbling over my rose. I jumped out of the taxi and walked upto the two figures to find out that it was two girls "remixing" my rose. I deicided to play dumb and asked them what it was that they were doing, one girl said "ohhh i'm just painting a rose for my boy-friend with our inititals on it, he lives just down the road and i know he'll see it, do you like it?",she said. I couldnt help but laugh and yelled "bullshit! i put that up earlier today and now ur defacing it! why?". They both thought i was lying until i whipped out one of my little stickers to show them proof and you should of seen their faces, they were shocked and embarrassed. They then apologised and left quickly. I was a little angry but kinda happy that it had a influence on someone :) take care and stay peace"... LOVEFIEND
