Show us some ROCKIN' photos.

The party rocked harder than most of the pussy-assed shows I've been to in the last year.
Wednesday, September 20th at 10pm the news came on the flat screen TV behind the bar at Canter's Deli's Kibitz Room. The top story was of a man on a motorcycle being pursued by the LAPD. After about 20 minutes or so the broadcast began to attract the attention of the bar patrons due to the fact every couple minutes or so this 'rider in the night' would throw up his left arm, fist clenched, in a gesture of triumph.... or at least that's how we began to read it. After a while the bar patrons began to join the nightrider in his revelry. Together we too raised our fists in the air, crying "Fuck Yeah!" or just hooting and flicking the bird. It was as though this guy, averaging speeds of only 35 MPH but stringing the cops along for hours, became a champion of freedom, a renegade, and we cheered him for fleeing as we had another round in his name. Chances are he was just some crazy dude, a screwball, but Wednesday night he was my hero.
In the morning, I tried to find information about the outcome of the chase. I wanted to know the story. I searched the web and turned up nothing. He was gone.
