All Things Classic x DJ ACRO: August edition.

ALL THINGS CLASSIC continues this month with a summer ending/fall welcoming event. This all vinyl monthly feature has quickly become one of the premiere events on the Ottawa scene and features all the best classic and wax from hip hop, soul, funk, blues, reggae, breaks, and samples. 

After holding down July as a solo effort,  DJ ACRO is going back full circle and welcoming back  DJ ILLO who helped him launch the first ever all things classic back in March. As for himself, Illo has had a busy summer, making it very clear that he has picked up some pretty heavy wax while travelling around the country and is ready to throw down for this one!


So with that, I invite you all down to the Standard Luxury Tavern (360 Elgin St.) on TUESDAY, AUGUST 30th, 2011 for what is easily the best and most unique monthly feature in Ottawa.

Starts at 10pm. NO COVER.

5$ Martinis
4$ Jagerbombs
4$ Chicken Wings
2$ Gourmet mini burgers

Gypsie free ridin' - new edit! Pt.1


Gypsie free ridin' (Pt. 1) from Johny Bonney on Vimeo.
July was crazy fun month for me. I was fortunate enough to be able to travel from Ottawa to Timmins, back to Ottawa to Winnipeg, back to Ottawa to St-Zotique and to Trois-Rivières, and then back again. Confused? Tell me about it. Shit at the end of all that, it was already August!

Part one features myself, Johny Bonney riding at my cottage up in Northern Ontario, Yan Tibo at Adrenaline Adventures in Winnipeg (Axis, AtWater, Go Fast energy drink, CTRL Wakeboards, Von Zipper), and my bro Justin Bonney (Billabong) in Winnipeg as well. Needless to say that I got lots of riding done, visited some cool places, and met some even cooler people along the way. Stay tuned for part two...

the WILKER lives on!

My friend Jamie Veilleux snapped this pic at his lake in Hearst, Ont. The boat you see is where and how this all started. My mom purchased it in the summer of '99 in order for her boys to spend a little more time at the cottage. Well her planned worked like a charm! The very next summer, my brother Justin convinced me that we should buy a wakeboard, and well here we are today.

We traded this boat in two summers ago for a jetski simply for the sake of convenience and efficiency. The last time I saw the Wilker, was when we sold it and it was being trailered off never to be seen again...until now. This boat represents a very special time in my life, and it's fucking awesome to see it again in the water especially with all our stickers still in tack! Many good times were had in that boat, good to see you again Miss Wilker...thanks for the memories.

it's my birthday!

This past weekend I was in Timmins for a little pre-birthday jam at my cottage. I showed up only to found out that my brother Justin had built a rail by himself for my birthday as a surprise (note: we failed to build one two weeks prior) even though he had six fresh stitches in his leg and wouldn't be able to ride it. Best gift EVER!!
