IRON BURNERS MAG ‘96 / RIP NACEO

Joe 08.03.11

Back in like ‘96 I hunted this magazine down just so I can read the NACE interview.  I finally found it in Philly.  I remember it was $5 and that was all I had on me.  It was either get this magazine or a cheese steak. I got the magazine, and I starved for the rest of the night, but it was wort it.  On August 12, 2001 NACE passed away after being hit by a drunk driver in Cincinnati Ohio while attending Scribble Jam.  I though it fitting to post this up.  Hope everyone enjoys.

How long have you been painting freights?

I’ve been bombing/painting since ‘91 or’92, but didn’t get serious until ‘93.

How did you get started?

Well it was around ‘88 or ‘89. I started going up to N.Y.C to see hardcore shows on the L.E.S and that when I really started to take interest in writing. Just seeing dope pieces on subways was enought to spark my interest on this artform, So that is when I started messin with handstyles and drawing pieces.
