Banksy - Better Out Than In - New York - BOTI, by spirit on Oct 31, 2013 19:02:31 GMT 1, That inflatable throw up completely fooled me
When someone posted a picture of it on here earlier I thought that was a bit of an odd ending but saw it as a kind of back to his roots thing...fine and all that but a bit meh...
Didn't check his site so so didn't realise it was INFLATABLE!
Just brilliant.
Cops arresting balloons. What an ending. Thanks Mr B!

Followed by Seattle.

Dot Dot Dot did these over a week ago after we wandered into a souvenir shop in Hollywood. Will be giving them away at the LA Contraband Event Nov 9th.

If I want a house that looks like the jaws 3d in back to the future and it's my land, I should be damn well entitled too.
Thanks for the last month everyone, been good, thanks yanks for pics an opinions, thanks web trawlers for all the pics and vids

Not sure if he did it intentionally but the song "Start Spreading the News" in the background is the last audio over the PA system at the end of every Yankee game forever.
So it's kind of nostalgic for us Yankee fans!!

Just a short long note to say BIG THANK YOU to our NY brethren - mr drach, AF, viva, kyleb, kob, dreadn, RobS, ath, pip, nah, in no particular order, those who flew over - mr frag, ap ... and anybody else that I may have missed out. You kept us informed, up to date, like Live News Reporters. Some great photos, vids, Inst and other links along the way - tyvm.
Oh yes! not forgetting our very own 'self proclaimed' 'worldwide' 'banksy expert'   .. mr wear .. who just could not keep himself out of the papers  and who, from some of his posts, has not slept for the past month!
I would also like to thank the other members from the UK for your cander, humour and interesting posts. It was also good to see contributions from Holland, Germany, NZ, HK, Kenya and everyone else 'just waking up' each day.
I did not log on during the day yesterday and had to catch up on 10 bloody pages before I came to the leopard!
I would also like to thank ... bloody hell this is not the Oscars ... but a little tear has come to my eye.  mr banksy (and his little helpers).
(PS: I will see, if I get the chance, (subject to permissions etc) to post the 'show end' pdf and hopefully TonyS wont miss it this time, otherwise he will be well p-ssed (again)  )

What a long, strange, awesome and amazing trip it's been!
Such an insane, beautifully perfect exclamation mark on what has been one of the most exciting paragraphs I've had the pleasure of living.

It's been an awesome month.
Also, thanks to Mr.B for being the enigma that he is.

And yes, they also play it at Yankee games, I'm a fan...originally they played Sinatra's version at wins and Liza Minnelli's at losses but she complained so now it's Sinatra all the time.
Liza of course continued her losing streak by marrying David Gest. Rumors of the Staten Island "Ants" piece having anything to do with Liza Minnelli have been greatly exaggerated.

Not sure if he did it intentionally but the song "Start Spreading the News" in the background is the last audio over the PA system at the end of every Yankee game forever. So it's kind of nostalgic for us Yankee fans!! The song is titled "New York, New York", written for the 1977 Martin Scorsese movie "New York, New York" , sung by Liza Minnelli with the classic line "if I can make it there I'll make it anywhere". Frank Sinatra covered it 2 years later and pretty much made it his. It is a fitting closing song to his month long show. Cat Power does a wonderful cover of it btw.

Banksy - Better Out Than In - New York - BOTI, by migsmigsmigs on Oct 31, 2013 20:04:46 GMT 1, Really enjoyed the majority of this month, as with anything this long a few blips and things that don't always WOW people but overall a fantastic idea and executed brilliantly
Personal highlights for me: OS Geomos collab, the stall, balloon, stripper piece
Lowlights: Plato, Ants, Reaper, beaver (although the guys were great)
Concept wise for me the real star of the entire month was the Meat Truck and the Stall, genius to fill the meat truck with cuddly toy animals and take it to the meat district! Secondly this forum showed why the Stall was fantastic, all the experts admitted they wouldn't have looked twice at the stall, the others who say they would have bought something then yeah we believe you!
Cheers for all the commentary and updates from the NY mob, made it fascinating to watch unfold before us all
