Tonight is the last night of the Oakland Crucible’s Fire and Arts Festival. It takes place right next to West Oakland BART so it is very accessible. A night full of fire, art, insanity and great photo ops. Check it out, more info can be found here.

Alright, what an amazing time it was. I was too drunk to take pictures but had some snaped of me.
Here’s one in my army get up.
The Oakland Art & Soul Festival is coming up! I go every year and am looking forward to Zion I this year. I must admit it is becoming more expensive and having less talent that interest me, but it is still a local event worth checking out. It is sponsored by mainly Comcast so maybe that’s why it is changing? Lots of music, 3 days and plenty of local vendors.
