Hopscotch boogy!

I said a hip, hop, the hippie the hippie to the hip hip hop and we don't stop at HopScotch. Do your friends and family talk to each other in a secret language about the "recreational arts"?  Are you convinced that they've started a secret society of music appreciation... without you? Do you stay awake at night longing to name-drop bands that they've never heard of? Do you fantasize that these bands are "actually really good, man" and long for the day that you can say "they're just really underground right now."  If you're in need of awesome-ammo, we are here with the solution. Head town to Raleigh town this weekend for the 4th annual HopScotch music festival! The Freaker B-truck will be set up for day parties on both Friday and Saturday! Here's where to find us:

Modern Times in Paradise

For the past couple of days we've been in San Diego hiding away in 24-hour coffee shops named after a vampire once played by Tom Cruise. In a fit of sleepless joy, we're here to announce our event schedule for this upcoming weekend with high hopes of high fives! This Friday, August 9th, we'll be celebrating life, liberty, and all the good things with beer. Good beer. Impossibly good beer. Modern Times Beer is a brand new brewery in Point Loma, opened by a runaway from Stone Brewery. For the first time in human history, Modern Times Beer is opening their tasting room to the general public this Friday. We're going to be there in full Freaker force circa 7pm helping these fine chaps pelt you with hedonism!

Ida Red Tinted Glasses!

  We like everything. Sometimes we reveal our true colors and say that we love everything. Once upon a time, we confessed our undying love for Oklahoma, along with our apologies and regrets that we hadn't always known to love Oklahoma so fiercely. Want to wallow in an Okie Bubble with us?! The fine folks at Ida Red Boutique have put together this A+ video about a Freaker life, living in a boxtruck, and slingin' grilled cheese sandwiches for the masses! "Why? We said it one time and then it felt like the thing to do. Because we said we were going to do it and then grilled cheese!"

Get snapped! Oh snap!

Once upon a time, Freakerteam-member Lauren drank too much wine and got all monster-face-y with the Mayor of Wilmington. Photographer Saben Kane Matthews was there to capture her inglorious (??) moment. TONIGHT, you will all have ample opportunities for your very own inglorious moments and Saben Kane will be there to capture them too!!!! Get fancy, get snapped. (OH SNAP!) Saben Kane coming in for the win! Soapbox. 8pm. Grilled cheese and glory bands!

Misfortune Villains & Community SuperHeros!

People are funny creatures. Sometimes they make cartoons, fly kites, and try their best to spread happiness. Sometimes they break into your warehouse on a Sunday morning and steal your expensive cameras and 5 computers that are your tools for creating and propelling your business forward. Freakerville was robbed this weekend. Thank you thank you thank you to all who have been sending warm thoughts & support! Whoever did this did not break our legs (and for that, we're extremely grateful!), but they did manage to push us a couple steps back. If you're running low on your Freaker supply, now would be a really really awesome time to restock & help us regain our balance! If you're in the greater Wilmington area, the fine folks at Gravity Records & The Soapbox Laundro Lounge are hosting a fundraiser show! Seven (yes! 7!) amazing bands will be playing and the new revolutionized Freaker Boxtruck will be unveiled! We'll be slingin' grilled cheese sandwiches to anybody and everybody who is lucky enough to have a mouth and wonky smiles will be flowing in full force!!! br> Now for the magnificent band line-up! If you happen to be in water right now, this list will blow you right out of it. You have been warned:
