Cops suck.

Will the DA ever move on filing charges for the allegedly advertised free beer in the vicinity of the Kona all-night New Year's cook off and camp out? The evidence apparently is long gone, if the hypothetical brew ever existed at all.

ET rolled through the Vienna Kunsthalle to participate in the survey Masterpieces of American Photography. After being honored along with such American masters as Dianne Arbus, Larry Clark, Richard Avedon, Robert Frank, and Ryan McGinley, he returned to Long Beach, Call for the premiere of Suffer the Joy. There, our traveling documentarian was overrun by a crowd of 2,000 skaters being "contained" by 200 riot police. In the ensuing debacle, the doors to the art theater were physically torn off their hinges. Survivors included such notables as Johnny Layton, Daewon Song, Jeremy Adams, Jamie Thomas, Greg Lutzka and Darrell Stanton. At least one broken arm and some smashed windows were not enough to overpower the skating, however, with hot shoe Nick Trapasso stealing the show, and Harmony, Layton, and the Butcher ripping competently. Should be in stores by the time you read this. Following this highly successful interaction, Templeton went to unwind at his opening of Empty Plastic Echoes at the Tim Van Laere Gallery in Antwerp, Belgium.
