RAQUEL QUEEN OF BAIL

I recently had somebody ask me how I heard about a specific art show. I don't remember, but I usually post what I'll be doing on the weekends here on my blog. If you ever feel like there's nothing going on or nothing fun to do, check my blog! 
This weekend was no different! It was packed with events but there's only so many hours in the day.
I must give it to the San Fernando Valley for the East meets West Pinstriping Art Show. We did a lot of things this weekend but this show takes the cake. Obviously a lot of planning & thought went into it. Or who knows, maybe a super cool event happens quite naturally for this rockabilly shop called The 8 Ball. 
We walked in this shop, & the further back you went, the cooler it got!!! Starting with a band from the valley called "Orwells Nightmare" playing a live set. Then there was fashion & shoes and fantastic handbags by Lux de Ville. Then you were in their art gallery area. They had a pinstriping exhibit with paintings, helmets, furniture all featuring custom hand pinstriping. There was even an artist pinstriping right there in front if us. Amazing he could do that with everything going on. All of the art was bad ass! My friend & famous artist Skratch was there & his art, which is always a treat. Walk further back and you found yourself in a little tiki cocktail lounge! It was fantastic. The style & design made this small area give you a special feeling to be in it. Everybody was having a great time & was very friendly. My friends from Born Free Cycles were there & sported my Tshirt!! 
Glendale Harley Davidson had a great event this day as well. A great band, lots of cool people & of course some really fantastic bikes & cars. A big shout out to Andrew for inviting me. They had shaded seating and a beer garden that served ice cold beer on this hot humid day. They had vendors, & some really good BBQ too! 
If there's one thing I've learned in business... It's that meeting people and shaking hands is better than any commercial, radio show, ad or flyer. I love being able to network & have a great time. It's a tough job, but I gotta do it!!! 
Thank you for reading my blog & I hope you got your Tshirt this weekend!

The weekend is almost here and RQOB's  schedule is already full. This is L.A. ! There is always so much to do! 
This Saturday is jam packed with events. The best part is they are all close & local. Saturday is the annual Love Ride kick off party at Glendale Harley Davidson ! Food, beer garden, vendors, & live bands! Good times for sure. Right after that we're hitting a pinstriping art opening at the 8 Ball in Burbank. I'm excited to see the many artists amazing pinstriping on motorcycles, helmets, canvas and everything else! The very well known artist "Skratch" is being featured in this show.
