We all know VICE , an independent media company and Web site based in Brooklyn, New York. They have been running an interesting broadband television network VBS.TV since 2007, and within the three years that they have been around, they managed to intrigue the big dogs over at CNN, who were interested in their journalism techniques.

VBS.TV is overseen by creative director and renowned filmmaker Spike Jonze, along with Vice founders Shane Smith and Suroosh Alvi.

Since January 20, 2010, every wednesday a new episode from VBS.TV will be featured at www.cnn.com/vbs. This section of the site also will include behind-the-scenes essays, photo slideshows and archives of VBS.TV stories that have been featured previously on CNN.com.

What a week !

March 4th, 2010 Written by Livestock No comments

About a month ago I was down in LA hanging out with the guys from the hundreds. The topic of the olympics came up and I was asked if I had planned on going. I said no and really had no intentions in partaking with the up coming event.  Thanks to NIKE I have avoided one of the biggest disservices I could have ever done to myself. Photos are taken from the big picture on the Boston Globe

Over the past 6 days I have been a tourist in my own city, one of the lucky people to be a NIke guest. I along with a few “key retailers”  was hosted by the swoosh for the last six days of the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. They put us up at the Loden  hotel in Coal Harbour area of Vancouver. If you ever get the chance you should stay here the service and food was amazing.

My olympic adventure was a little skewed towards hockey. We saw 8 games in 5 days. I’d only been to two hockey games in the past and they did little to prepare me for the full force of Canadian hockey fans.  The first day I saw team USA play and they seemed like they knew how to take care of some biz.

Team Canada’s loss to the US and a tie in one other game set us up to be knocked out by the gold medal favourites. The Russians.

v13_222439534who are lead by this guy…….. looks like he’s ready to take car of some shit. To bad for him team Canada handed them an embarrassing 7-3 win. After a 3-2 win over  slovakia that set up the Canada Vs USA gold medal game and a jackpot for scalpers. As we were leaving the game there were dudes with signs “gold medal game tickets $4,000″, rumours had them going for as much as $20,000 a ticket for prime seats

v04_222008975Of all the things I watched it was coolest to see the ladies hockey team win gold. For sure the mens was insane but the ladies are all amateurs, and there is no level for women like the NHL. This is the highest level for them, was dope to see.

v38_223856137Overall the Olympics were amazing for Vancouver, for Canada and for myself. Again a huge thank you to nike for the love.v46_224424618

raekwon X Livestock

February 15th, 2010 Written by Livestock 2 comments

Raekwon was recently touring his new album OB4CL2 and made a stop in our lovely city of Vancouver. The Chef was kind enough to stop off at our Gastown Livestock location to cop some AF1’s, Alife chucks, and of course some freshly designed Livestock tees, one of which he rocked at the show later that night! Rae was definitely feeling the BBC selection as well, most notably the bbc ski mask.
