QUESTIONS & ANSWERS ♯ 24 - SKORE

London’s old school king and Gooner for life  - SKORE TRC ! Listen up - hes got something to say . . .

p1010167

1. Tell us who you are – what you do and how long you’ve been doing it ?

Hi. I write Skore, I write graffiti in and around London and I’ve been doing it now for 26 years

2. Favourite 3 colors?

Red, white and black, although if I ever had my own spray-can colour it would be ‘Skore turquoise blue buntlack’…….

3. Favourite 5 pieces of all time and why – (please include links)

If I picked my favourite 5 pieces they would all be from Subway Art…  Mitch-Seen, Sab-Kaze, 2Many, Noc’s Style Wars, Duster-Lizzie

From Europe I guess it would be people like The Chrome Angelz, The London Giants, Tuf Arts, The Cold Crush Dukes…… as you can see I fell in love with Graffiti many years ago when iconic pieces meant something… Nowadays everytime I visit flickr I can see 20 amazing pieces but they are instantly forgotten and replaced by another 20…. The internet has made generic pieces that are painted for a web audience - in the old days pieces were timeless, and meant something within a localised scene. Droves of people would travel for miles to come and stare at these amazing works… Nowadays it’s often a collection of the latest fads, cliches, gimics and trends…

4. Favourite city and why ?

London. I never fall out of love for it and discover something new here every single day.

I also love New York for obvious reasons, and Bangkok because it is just so alive…… and so mental!

5. Favourite food / drink /?

Indian / Lager (Alpine from Sam Smiths is nice and cheap!)

6. Biggest vice ?

As a young-un it definitely used to be porn. Lol. But the internet has cured me of that one… Nowadays, I don’t really have one….. Maybe the constant urge to go travelling!

7. Biggest Gripe ?

Definitely having to be a jerk, and go to work.

8. Favourite shoe?

Shuto.

9. Favourite 5 tracks ?

Just off the top of my head without too much thought….

Madness - It must be love

The Verve - Lucky man

John Lennon - Working Class Hero

The Jam - English Rose

Kings of Leon - Be somebody….

10. Perfect day?

Somewhere in the sun with my girlfriend….

11. Whos the most famous person on your phone?

I’d hate to say. I guess there would be a few faces people would recognise from the UK music and graffiti worlds, both old and new….

12. 3 people you would love to have a pint with ?

David Icke, Patrick Vieira, my Dad…..

13. 3 things you cant live without . . .

Graffiti, my girlfriend, Arsenal football club

14. i am lucky/unlucky because . . .

In my life I have met some remarkable people, got myself in some of the maddest situations, been witness to some amazing times and been to some incredible places….. I’m not really a believer in luck… hard-work and determination breaks through all the bad times….

15. Last time you were caught doing something ?

Fare evasion, and then cautioned for losing my temper with the cxnt!

16. 5 things that are within arms reach of where you are right now?

cup of tea, telephone, sun newspaper, computer screen, work-colleagues…..

17. what would u grab from your burning house?

My girlfriend and my hard-disk……

18. 3 things to do before you die ?

Own a hot-tub, a camper van, and have a family……

19. earliest memory

Listening to nursery rimes at pre-school…

20.  any upcoming projects- shouts – final words !

Projects: Building a patio in my garden and the infamous non-book. Lol

Shouts: To everyone I know, I would have still done it without you all but it wouldn’t have been such fun….

Final words: Rest in peace King Dare……. never forgotten

This came about from me trying to find the video of Barrymore on Celebrity Big Brother a few years ago when they made him smash eggs on his head. Some of the eggs were raw - some were boiled so it was like a russian roulette vibe. . . when he did get a result the look on his face as yolk ran down it was something i will never forget - it was like watching somebody crumbling before your eyes. . .why he went on the show I cant understand . . .its easy to work out whether his career is at the top,middle or bottom
