Wall from Yesterday with my mate Sole and a french dude called AntOne, decent geezer. I painted a NEAR piece.
I first went to that spot as a 14 year old kid and met a few writers a bit older than me, one was a guy who wrote Near. Good style and pretty funny guy, I met a him a few times after, but he more or less gave up painting by 96.
Last time I saw him I was out with a group of mates and randomly bumped into him in town which led to a comical breakdance battle in the street with much hilarity, as I said he was a funny guy.
Few years later he walked out to the Forth Road Bridge, 150 metres above water level and jumped off. Killing himself instantly. At that height the water would have the same consistency as concrete so I imagine the end wasn't pretty.
That'll be the last time I paint that spot.
