Banksy • Cans Festival • 2008, by snakes on May 7, 2008 9:03:40 GMT 1, ok the poster story this is what i heard !! they were flooging them for a fiver, an italian artist/friend took 500 odd and was selling them on the south bank for £20 each. when someone was offered a poster for a fiver at the show they said bargain someone is flogging them for £20 else where. the "orgainiser" got wind of this and was worried that it people would think they were official so stopped selling them and was gonna burn them.
It was not JBOY putting on an accent by any chance?

Banksy • Cans Festival • 2008, by Jef Aerosol on May 7, 2008 9:37:01 GMT 1, Hi, I've just had a look at the video and I'm trying to understand but I guess I'm missing something : my english isn't good enough to get the humour or reference I suppose. Must be funny as we can hear a girl laughing after each spray, on the video ! Can you help ? I've looked for the meanings of the words :
-prozzie = prostitute
-midget = very small person (= dwarf)
-muff = sort of fur fashion accessory to keep the hands warm
So, we have : skull + "midget for sale" (really don't get this !) + "muff"...
Now I'm trying to figure out where the pun is, or what the meaning is...
Help !

Brian Taylor (Candykiller) is not a street artist or a Stencil artist. Its Prism from Australia.

Hi jef. Its more of a regional joke from where we come from.
Prozzie = Prostitute
Midget = Yes its a dwarf
Muff = Fanny/va***a/axewound, etc
The joke is that where we are from there is a legendary midget prostitute that was ugly as sin but people still bought her for her muff. So its more of a dedication to her than anything. The skull is representing how f**king ugly she was.

Banksy • Cans Festival • 2008, by Jef Aerosol on May 7, 2008 12:22:46 GMT 1, ok Lukep, thanks for the explanation...
very good taste humour, if I may say so !
so this stencil can only be understood by a tiny minority of people who live in your area, if I understand well ! Some sort of "private joke"...
it's strange that you wanted to spray it at the festival...
anyway, some things have to be strange, I guess !

There were about 30,000 people who attended so I reckon POW will have printed in excess of 10,000 of these. So they're not exactly rare and even if they do run out then I'd hope that someone with better PC skills then me would scan and post them on these pages.

Banksy • Cans Festival • 2008, by Fragile on May 7, 2008 14:17:46 GMT 1, went back to the tunnel at 12pm today. beautiful. around 20 people in the entire tunnel. it was stunning. all the art (on the walls) is intact at the moment. a few things have been placed in there. on top of the banksy ape (with the cap on) is a jumper with graffiti writing on it stating "here's your gold". In front of the ape is a traffic cone sprayed gold with a signature on (which I couldn't make out). I recommend that you all get down there as soon as possible, as I don't think it's gonna stay this good for that long. the public spraying area is still closed.

I could only make out 'Little Boys...' but there was more. Too many people standing over it to read it fully. Anyone know what is said and who sprayed it? Bandit?
it states "little boys and their toys"
