Series: [GlassJAw set us up the 'Bomb']

This was during the night of Blake's visit after the Pink Taco fest (God bless Nicole Kidman waitresses). We also had the pleasure of meeting GlassJAw for the first time. We hit up this seemingly quiet parking structure near Century City...then John lights it up - up and down the parking lot. I wish Frank and I had more time to do the disorganized shots we had planned in other areas of the lot, but golf-cart security owned us fairly quickly after the highly aggressive E55 pretty much set off bombs everytime it turned on =). On our way out, 3 bomb squad vehicles made their way towards the structure...so we proceded to feed the white man late night Boba.

I selected these pictures from my vantage point, but Frank should have some great ones from where he was hiding. Enjoy!













And Friday Night's extremely honorable mention:





Frank! Quit hibernating and post coverage of John's E55!

Nice pics Jose.

Sorry I didn't make it boys. Now what is that cruddy M series doing in there. Was that the janitors car?! J/K Phil, I'd love to have that fine auto.

Now, how would it have looked with my newly driven Fiat in there?

Probably only seems that way because I flooded the forum with 4 sets of pictures in a night...highly uncommon for me if you ask these guys. Car pics aren't my only subject: http://www.flickr.com/photos/flipachu

Pics didn't come out too bad! Pic of reelax's galant looks dandy!

I love night shots when there is just enough lighting, just wish the security guy broke it up a little later so we could get the other shot we were talking about.

So you can see how dark it really was, here is a pic from my point and shoot camera using flash! Granted, my camera takes horrible night pics anyway, just wanted you all to know how good Frank and Jose's cameras are.
