Man-As-Brand: Luke Highfire by Jeff Gamble

In 1977, on the heals of a Candyland World Championships debacle that saw him knocked off the U.S. team by his own coach, Luke Highfire ceased to be Luke Highfire the person, and began his journey towards Luke Highfire the icon.

Griffith Park Fire

So only a couple days after my official move to Silver Lake. I'm grabbing a bite to eat with Kris and Chip on Hillhurst Ave a couple blocks down from Griffith Park.. As we're seated for dinner, the fire that had begun a few hours before was, according to the local news, contained and out of danger for the local homes. Half way through our meal, the flames were now rolling up and over the hills of Griffith Park and the Fire Dept started evacuating the wealthy residents of the area. People started gathering on the streets and before long camera crews and local news stations were on the scene. At this point it seemed like several homes were going up in smoke and there was no stopping this raging fire now. To the total disbelief of many, the FD was able to contain the fire and save all the homes. In the end 800 hectares were burnt and the park was reduced ashes. Check out the pictures above.

Particle Productions

One of my first of few jobs here in LA was with Particle Production and Mike Mayer. It was a project for Instant Films where we needed to shoot and cut the film in 1 weekend. Thanks to Mike, I was able to hang with a good crew and meet good people through the experience.. Look out for his upcoming film The Graduation

Coachella 2007

Coachella 2007

Hands down the best concert event I've ever been to. From the bands to the Venue to the people Coachella had it all.. Once we figured out parking, we were golden. Just check the pics and buy your ticket for next year ASAP.

Pioneertown, CA

While visiting grandma in Rancho Mirage, Kris, Sarah and I decided to hit Old Pionnertown off of 29 Palms drive. Aside from the miniature western set, we rocked the local saloon, and dropped off a licence plate at Pappy & Harriette's.. Make sure to bring acid for the waitress, she was fiending

Winter in Oregon

Oregon Feb 07

Any chance I get to go up to Oregon, I take, and this trip couldn't have been at any better time.. Snowboarding time that is. So the weather in Portland is bad yet it didn't discourage me from hittin the town and the slopes up in Mt Hood. Gamshark hooked us up with a stay at the Silcox lodge 6000ft above sea level just above Timberline Lodge. The conditions weren't perfect but the powder was plenty and thats all that counts for me!
Did I mention how much I love Oregon!

Las Vegas

So while MAGIC is happeneing in Vegas I decided to hit the road again and meet up with Hakeem at the Venetian for a few days.. What was supposed to be 2-3 days turned into 5 days including the All Star NBA game, Air Force One party at Tao,and did I mention the free massages offered by the people at ROCKPORT..Party now, sleep later

Pebble Beach

Hardly settled at the maltman house, I get a call from Gamshark to hit up Pebble Beach for the Pro Am golf tournament coming up. "Hotel will be paid for, dinners should be as well, so all you need is to get your ass up here, and your CBS pass will be waiting " he told me. On top of that the drive would take me through Santa Barbara, Big Sur and Carmel.. hell yeah! So I'm back out hittin the road for another extended weekend in Monterrey. The Golf tournament didn't disappoint with Bill Murray hitting the course, not only is he a good golfer but the jokes were flowin.. He even stopped for some hula-hooping on the 4th hole. Ray Romano, Kevin James, Don Cheadle, Kevin Costner, Tom Brady and Emmitt Smith were all part of the outing. Although Emmitt was hitting more golf balls in the ocean than on the fairways. All in all another excellent weekend. Oh and did I mention the Monterrey aquarium, pretty dope stuff, if you've never seen a sun fish check out the pic!

Superbowl 2006.. in timelapse

More snowboarding.. this time is Cali

Upon arrival into the Long Beach Airport, I make a round of phone calls to my people out here in LA and get offered a trip up to June Mountain for an extended weekend; departure in 48hrs. Since I landed with nothing but winter clothes it was an easy call. Chuchie and I broke out late Friday night with a make shift picnic for the road. That is wine, cheese and crackers. The drive took us through the desert and star filled night to the small town of June Lake Village. At our arrival around 2am everyone in the house was passed yet we managed to score one of the few rooms while others crashed on the couches and floors. Although the snow wasn't at its best we managed to have a blast as Chuchie and I were schooling the college kids in the house about life experiences.. Drinks flowed and truth or dare didn't leave any rocks unturned.. Thanks to Susana for hookin this trip up!

The Maltman

Gotta give it up for Kris who put me up at the Maltman house as I decided to call Cali Home for a while..

Sundance 2007

Can you say last minute trip.. Well this years Sundance was exactly that. I made the call a few days ago while speaking with Hayes about it. Snowboarding, movies, and after parties, I'm all about it. So far it's lived up to the hype, the powder is fresh, the streets are bustling with filmmakers and wannabees, dinners have been generously offered by friends and acquaintances and the after parties are a nice mix of sloppy and glitzy. Hayes and his boys rented out a chalet not far from Main street where the Jacuzzi is kept at 105 degrees surrounded by fresh snow, which makes it an easy call for me since my Motel was located 25 minutes outside of Park City. Today, I've decided not to return back to NY and fly into LA for another round of meetings and whatever else the West coast can offer. Thanks Kris for accepting my request to crash at your pad.

Santa Con.. what???

So its that time of the year again.. and to change things up, i decided to check out this years Santa Con... a bar crawl around Manhattan with thousands of people dressed as Santa Clause.. and for those of the Jewish faith some Menorah Women, or Yammukah sporting clauses... Think that's weird check out the pics..

AFM

The American Film Market started this week in Santa Monica. I flew in for the 2nd week of the festival and met up with Steve so I can figure out how to get myself a job in the industry.. Without a pass to the upper floors of the hotel I was bound to the pool area and ground level. Not a bad place for some people watching especially here in LA and in the film industry..... One of my lunches at shutters was with David Carradine.. the guy was straight out of Kill Bill, Zen and composed as he told us a story about his latest feature. I ended up staying in for 3 1/2 weeks, meeting with VP's from Newline, to Spyglass to Warner and Lionsgate.. Still no job but building on knowledge of the industry.

City Year

So its been a few years now that I've been working with City Year through Timberland and I recently got the opportunity to speak at the opening day for City Year New York. What an honor, especially at City Hall in front of 300 people. I am an avid fan of theirs and believe that they continue to inspire our younger generation in doing good.
A raving fan.

Europe and more

So most of my summer of 06 was spent in France and Italy.. I just couldn't leave my job and not run home for a culture and culinary refill.. From the Paris night life and late night merguez to the most delicious pesto in Radda in Cianti, all was good. The trip to northern Italy was a reminder in how to enjoy life to the fullest. Incredible sights from Como to Bellagio, to the surreal city of Venice it only got better as friends met up for a birthday weekend in Florence and drive through Tuscany to the beautiful medieval city of Siena which comes alive for one of the world's most breathtaking folk festivals, Il Palio. Unfortunately we missed it by 48 hours.. Pisa wasn't all that but the fortified city of Luca is. the trip was not complete before a short stop in North Africa on the Island of Djerba Tunisia..

World Cup 2006

Waiting 4 years really sucks but its well worth it.

Regresar A Mexico

So another trip to Mexico had to be done and this time with a crew of friends.. Thanks again to Memo and Moni for drawing up one of the best trips ever.. From DF to Pie de la Cuesta (A must stop if in the Acapulco Area, forget the crowds and go chill out in this serene area). Onto Puerto Escondido for some surfin with the locals and Aussies. Further south we found our way to Zipolite for the best beach hammock in Mexico, ok so I passed out for an hour from the 2nd hand smoke. If you've got the stomach for it take the road up through the mountains to Oaxaca and spend a few nights there and check out the nearby ruins of Monte Alban. Did I mention the local delicious dishes of Mole and chapulines. From there we drove through Puebla and back to Mexico DF for some final tacos in Bosques de las Lomas Mall. Make sure to ask for Las Costras, the inventor of the delicious Costra tacos, estan padres!!!

Invitation to sms

What the F...
So SMS.AC has figured out a way to send out an email to all your contacts asking them to join up for text messages. What a scam. Make sure you delete this before signing up or all your contacts will be receiving this email. It is even signed your name. Stay away! It's bad enough already but having an email sent out on your behalf to all your contacts without even knowing it, really sucks.

Mexico Lindo

If you've never made it passed our Southern Border, then maybe you should think about it for your next trip.. Thanks to my best friend Memo, I took a long overdue trip to Mexico City DF. From the colorful neighborhoods, to the grityness of this massive city, there is a little bit of everything for everyone. My favorite places so far have to be La Condesa, with its small streets, art deco buildings, cool shops and eclectic restaurants. Coyoacán, located just outside the city center is a colonial-era suburb with beautiful squares, local shops and restaurants. It is also home to many museums including the house of Frida Kalo and Diego Rivera. Next is El Centro, the heart of Mecio City with its expansive town square featuring La Alameda and the Zócalo built directly on top of the Aztec capital of 1519, which has been brought back thanks to recent escavations. The main Cathedral on the square is quite a sight as well. Did I mention the delicious food, from Mole to Tacos mmmm..

VAL D'ISERE

So I just got back from Val D'Isere in the French Alps.. de la balle! Thanks to my Aunt and Uncle, I was chillin' in a chalet for 9 days. In case your wondering it's a massive ski resort, with over 200 runs, 3 valleys, 300km of slopes, 2 glaciers, 2 snowboard parks, and all you need in terms of nightlife. Did I mention the food, and amazing wines, but of course we're in France. Shoot-Out to the Crew at the Chardon, and to the Petit Danois for serving up the beers during the week.

Pour les GAMS!

Pas grand chose a dire de plus que ceux qu'y s'y reconnaissent, savent!
