A Collection Part 27

Happy happy middle of October everyone! I hope you’ve all had a lovely and relaxing weekend so far. For the first time in my life yesterday, I spent the afternoon out on a boat in Puget Sound with some wonderful company. Hard to believe that I’ve never actually done that before – clearly I’m not getting the most out of Seattle by living here. There’s no theme to this collection post this time, but it’s been a month since we’ve last seen one and I like this group so much. I’m kind of in this limbo right now of college and the real  world that begins after college (that I thought began at college.) And I’m going to be here for a few months I’m sure so I’ve been attracted to photos recently that involve a single person. That’s really the only explanation I have for that.

MTV Gives the Hipsters a Television Series

After tomorrow’s 2011 Video Music Awards, make sure you stick around to catch the pilot episode of MTV’s newest scripted series, “I Just Want My Pants Back.” Nathan Williams, the frontman of Wavves, has composed several songs and is in charge of providing the score for the new series. I’m not exactly sure what this series is about nor have I seen it advertised that much on the network, but supposedly, the series follows a group of hipster post-grads living in Brooklyn.

The full series will premiere sometime in 2012. Apparently, MTV was casting extras for the series last summer searching for real-life hipsters:

“Do you own skinny jeans, old school chucks, cabbie hat, the 70’s vest, an ironic t shirt or hat, a fitted sweater, flannel shirt, or chunky lens-less glasses? Do you drink PBR, have an ironic mustache, have a blog that allows you to post pictures you took with your digital camera? Been called a hipster? Deny being a hipster, but own various wardrobe and sport an asymetrical hair style that is considered Non-Mainstream? Smoke Parliaments? Got any cool tattoos? Perhaps one of a star, maybe on your wrist or elbow? Own a vintage dress or have an awesome beard? Shooting the week of 8/30/2010.”

The main character is kind of a dream boat.
