The Great Escape

Bombing “Le Metro” is equivalent to getting the METROLINK in Los Angeles. It’s the city’s railway system guarded by security 24-7. Very few writers can say that they’ve painted a METRO before and to be able to pull it off without getting caught is neary impossible, but do-able. You get 20 minutes TOPS, to run into the subway, paint, and be out before security can smell the paint fumes through the tunnels due to the way the airflow works in there. The icing on the cake is to be able to see it running around town the next day and take pics because there’s a zero tolerance level for this and it will get buffed within hours. Seems like that tolerance level for our train just went up a couple of notches cause it was running all day. Go get your wetwipes…

SMASH MTS


Only had 10 seconds to be able to take pictures of the stuff and it came out blurry.


Wait! Wait! Waaaiiiittt!

    That’s dope that you handled the 4 panels in 3 days. Much props to you on that. Just curious. How long ago was this and what lines did you hit? Needless to say I’m sure that each person has their own personal stories to interpret in regards to the METRO. But thanks for contributing to our blog. It’s always good to hear from other heads. Peace.
