Meeting a few hours with LASK and 1 BASK, might be one of the highlights of this very short trip.

I wanna thank these awesome guys---Carl, Scott, Connel, Matt, Pete, Nate, Pete (??), and Alex.

Thanks Carl for picking me up the hotel, and waiting for several minutes. :oops:

Here's Carl lecturing me about being ON TIME! joke joke...

Carl, thanks dude!

From Astro Burgers, the group proceeded to the "Muton's House of (Very)Precious Toys".

But before that, this particular/similar view caught my attention.

Thanks JAY! ^____^v

Nate told me he had a lot of fun today and trying to describe Muton Museum in detail was hard. It was overwhelming he said. So many awesome toys! XD

On Muton's ref.

After Scott edits it.

So, while everyone was so stoked with Muton's collection, Scott set-up his "Rootbeer Challenge" which is part of his upcoming What Gives? gig.

Let the RB Challenge begin!!!

Laying down the rules.

Image

Image

One by one, the rootbeer kept flowing in...

Image

Image

Matt: "WTF is this shit??"
Image

Alex: "Tastes like burnt soft vinyl...!"
Image

Image

Scott announces the winners and losers....lectures a bit about root beer.
Image

Turns out, this was my choice.
Image

This one tastes like mouthwash!
Image

Image

A pose with LASK.
Image

A couple of poses with Muton.
Image
Image
Image

Image
A pose not far from "Posers!"---one of my agenda for visiting L.A. and one of my most favorite shop.
Image

My LA loot!
Image

Had a great time in LASK country. Awesome Skull Brain community you guys have here, I hope to visit again soon.

Or see you all in Manila?

JAY

ok let me set this straight. this is how I look when I am focused, not because it was a bad rootbeer. all the competitors in the muton north bracket were good imo. I took the competition and evaluation very seriously as I wanted to find my favorite rootbeer. see my eye, there is some serious thought being put into this sample. I came to find I like jack black red dead (? I think that is the name, scott correct me) the best in the bracket.

doghair from roughousing w/ the pugs scruffy and millhouse, Im not usually covered in fur.

great to meet Jay in person and hang w/ lask. :) good times.
