at least you see ice on train-line
which is more than can be said for
ANY of you.
Not too shabby for a guy who hasn't gone out painting in almost 7 years.
All you see is simples? Maybe they are all the only things left around. Maybe you don't look hard enough. Either way, those simples are fresh, and still runnin'.
-The Truth is that you are a legend in your own mind.
hahahaha.....i know now that -the truth- is just a toy...hahahaha....he cant do shit but try and sound witty...you aint got nothing....come battle me if you wanna get clowned even harder...your letters are sooo generic and bit anyways....hahahaha.....keep dropping my name tooooo-- i love internet fame!
So Much arguing and beefing in this thread and Ct. Just all get along and paint as a unit and team and things will run much smoothly I say. Also much undiscovered spots in the area not been hit up that you guys go run through just the like springfield heads.

That outline might be nice if you did something with it. My 2 year old cousin can pick the squares, circles, and triangles from her playset and make that, and if she spits up on it she'd have the same fill. Daze, you're probably a little white boy running around trying to represent by using the word nigga. I bet you don't say that in front of a real brotha, do you? And threadz, trying to rep the CT scene with a bunch of crappy pieces, mostly by people who don't even live in CT. Way to go people!
What ever happened to my man Raw Fish? At least he tells it like it is.
been away for a bit... I come back and its 17 pages of bullshit... so very sad... I guess instead of painting, everyone puts their effort into trying to king the CT thread on 12oz... how sad...I like the green twice piece... RIP for the wall that was done at (if its where I think it is) and the 3a prodo goes with out saying
I would like to know who you are Gangsta... email me or something

so if there was to be a battle... who would be the judge?
and by what criteria are we going to judge the pieces?
and as for the train line comment (I dont remember where I read it) Ice isnt the only person up... there are 60 something miles of train line between new haven and springfield... a similar amount of miles between the NY border and the RI border, not to mention countless miles of frieght line, abandoned and active... how much of it have you walked? I think maybe you should check the facts, and do some research before you make such a bold statement...
you would be very very surprised to find out what is actually on those freight lines that you have no interest in.... stuff painted on a freight line in a spot where "no one who gives a shit will ever see it" is likely to last until the paint fades away...
maybe you see no value it the hunt for new spots, or the adventure of getting to some really out of the way place, or the pleasure of painting something illegal that is even more chill than a legal wall... or the comfort of knowing that you can do a piece and its not going to get gone over the next day...
maybe you like doing the same spots over and over again.... good for you if thats what makes you happy... but for me, I have a much better time putting a little more effort into it... I have pieces in towns you have never even heard of...
just two cents from a sucker that no one likes....
I would hope that after nearly 7 years of not painting, there would be others who have gotten up. Although, there is still plenty of shit running that is at least 7 years old. As for freights.. done. As for Commuter Trains... DONE. As for lines that run north-south in CT (to mass)... done. as for the rest of the tracks that run from New Haven to Rhode Island... who cares? I've painted farther east, but painting the train line is for recognition... I want people to see what I do. I never claimed to be the most up, or the best writer, but at least my shit gets recognized... by writers, and non-writers alike.
Just so you have your facts down, there are over 150 miles of track in CT, between NY and RI. I have walked nearly half of that, and there are lots of people up. Are you one of them? I'm not saying that you are not up, but rather, that I do not know if you are. (this was not directed towards any one person)
If you want to argue about who did the most, there are plenty of people who will agree that it was the ALG.
Don't take your history from some graff mag, or video, or what your friend said. These are all skewed points of view, and will never give you a true representation. Lets see your flix from 91, 92, 93... even 94. Better yet, lets see ANY of your flix.
I say the battle should go down somewhere dope. Like an active train yard... or how about trumbull, you could each get your own wall to burn, and heads could watch from the other side...
... and I would be happy to judge.
Nothing is foolproof, to a sufficiently tallented fool.
i agree with raw fish but, username makes sense ...it is the main commuter line and moves thousands a day...........not like the untraveled rural trains or buisness class northbounds that zip by
that sounds good for a battle...you gotta put up 20 cans to make it interesting...you do my name and i do yours....or you can do any name you want but i'll use your tag and your "style" ..judges must be objective....
heres the deal you find a run down abandoned town and you go back to back and take 3 steps forward and draw your weapons! this is a shootout! and whoever wins gets the girl in the saloon

Very Nice throw up
even if i find this humurous i still love seein abel throwies on fences and shit goin to NYC and as much as i may try not to like this pic i really do. is this a piece?? is it a throwie?? if its not a piece.. does abel do pieces?
those abel computer things that move and shit are stupid
"as for the rest of the tracks that run from New Haven to Rhode Island... who cares?"
those lines still have trains rolling on them, people still see them... writers or not, its still being seen
"I never claimed to be the most up, or the best writer, but at least my shit gets recognized... by writers, and non-writers alike."
I also never claimed to be the most up, or the best writer, just trying to get recognized. Im putting as much effort into it as I can, doing stuff that is going to be seen, and stuff that will most likely never be seen.
"Just so you have your facts down, there are over 150 miles of track in CT, between NY and RI."
thank you, I forgot the number
"I have walked nearly half of that, and there are lots of people up. Are you one of them? I'm not saying that you are not up, but rather, that I do not know if you are. (this was not directed towards any one person)"
Ive walked my fair share too... and I came to the same conclusion...
"If you want to argue about who did the most, there are plenty of people who will agree that it was the ALG."
I will agree with you on that...
"Don't take your history from some graff mag, or video, or what your friend said. These are all skewed points of view, and will never give you a true representation. Lets see your flix from 91, 92, 93... even 94. Better yet, lets see ANY of your flix."
History is outside, its a real living thing, and you cant learn anything about it by sitting here...
I dont mind disagreeing with anyone, and Im happy that so far (at least in the last half page or so), the back and forth has stayed mostly intelligent, its much better than the "yeah, well, your mom is fat" kind of arguments that were going on before. (some of which were my fault)
theres some people who talk shit bout me on this thread and thats all cool and shit, it doesnt really bother me, what bothers me though is the people who try to say cts scene is garbage...if its so garbage do something about it, im not a hardcore bomber or none of that, but at least i get up when i can, and try my best when im out there, to me graffiti aint about walkin train lines, or even about history for that matter, to me graffiti is me, daize 1m, going out in the middle of the night to catch a tag, or planning out a production, or just findin new spots all together, all this hatred is unnecessary, everyone is out doing the same thing for the same reasons (more or less), why cant anyone understand this? i have to give it up to the ones who tell people straight up thier wak or what not because them doing that will do 1 of two things, either make the wak writer quit or make the wak writer get better, i may not be the best in the world, or my state, or even my city, but at least i try, if everyone put as much effort in to "trying" rather than beefing there would be no problems, i have to say i dont like jas' style or abel's style but that doesnt matter, its thier style, at least they are trying.....just my .02, take it for what its worth

on another note, abel, im just curious as too what your shit looks like....is it like those "electronic bitch slaps" or something different, got any flicks?

Propaganda- get in touch. You should be far more cautious. I understand you're trying to make moves around here in places that could quickly get you killed. Just because someone did it before does not make it safe now (or then). And be careful not to spot jock.
As for this whole argument on here, there's tons of unseen spots all over here and I know Raw Fish has been to as many of them as I. If no one else sees them I say fuck 'em. I live to paint, paint to live. I'm a big fan of Banksy, anyone who wants to see innovation can check him out. I've seen this quote from him floating around and I think it sums things up best: "The time of getting fame for your name on its own is over. Artwork that is only about wanting to be famous will never make you famous. Any fame is a bi-product of making something that means something. You don't go to a restaurant and order a meal because you want to have a shit."
Criminal minded you\'ve been blinded looking for a style like mine you can\'t find it
