Kelvin’s Ruckus @ Zen .

I took last Thursday off work to help Damien set up the Aus Infront VR Exhibit, and I was so hung over on the Friday I had to take it off too. The boys @ Zen were cool with me taking the extra day off, but made me promise to get in early to open Zen on the Saturday (we’re now open every Saturday), they said they’d be in later.

I got in 20 minutes before 11AM (official opening time) and there was already a bunch of peeps waiting! Was a busy day, funny thing was Sean and Rob didn’t come in at all, leaving me to man the store by myself HAHA, serves me right! :P

What better a way to celebrate my birthday than to be granted an interview with American Photographer, Artist and Biologist Natacha Merritt! Check out the full interview here.

Our Post Easter Sale went down a treat last Saturday thanks to our friends who helped us get the word out on their Facebook Pages. Sydney turned on the weather (we’ve been blessed!) and punters snapped up heavily discounted goods.

Initially I was a little upset to be working on such a nice day. When asked how I was going by a customer I replied “I’d rather be at the beach!” to which they replied “no way we’d rather be here!”. That took me by surprise, and very quickly snapped me out of my downer mood. Better yet is this snippet from Fitment Freaks:

Days like this are what we live for. A big thanks to the staff at Zen Garage for today!

Sweet right? The above photos were snapped by Fitment Freaks. Check out more images here.

The 2012 JSCC annual general meeting was held at Zen Garage last night. The boys discussed various upcoming events, particularly the planning of their upcoming Gymkhana training day to be held at Eastern Creek skid pan at the end of May 2012.

If you’ve got a Japanese car, and are looking to get CAMS affiliated there’s no better way than to join through these guys.

It’s on like Donkey Kong!

The world’s a much happier place from up here.

The million dollar cruiser had us balling out of control again last night. :)

So good to be a tourist in your own city.

We docked up at Cocklebay Wharf, turns out the whole of Sydney was there as Darling Harbour put on an awesome fireworks display.

A few weeks ago I closed up the shop one night and had the Dopesource Media guys come over to shoot unsigned 21 year old Artist Christian Joseph performing his original song titled ‘Fool For You’. The results are amazing, one guy, a guitar, unplugged… it’s so raw, no synths, overdubs and drum machines, nothing to hide behind (unlike his official video).

I was instantly jealous of Christian’s amazing voice, which filled a dark and quiet Zen Garage with emotion so thick you had to wade through it.

I’ve put a feature, with more links up on Zen Garage, so click for more, if you like.
