ABOUT THE SHOW:
This is the second installment of this motorcycle helmet show, promising bikes, art, booze, raffles, and chaos. Curated by White Noise Maker, Brad White, “Friday the 13th” appeals to motorcyclists, art patrons and lunatics alike. It is a modern riff on the artistic motorcycle helmets of the 60s and 70s, popularized by Kustom Kulture. The film Easy Rider alone made the vintage open face helmet as synonymous with motorcycle culture as the black leather jacket. The undeniable cool of the iconic and famous classic shell speaks directly to the themes of the era… Freedom, youthful aspirations, sex, drugs and rock and roll. Sponsored by Pabst Blue Ribbon, Biltwell, The American Motorcycle Association, Cheap Cycle Parts, Kick-It Vintage, Triple Six Crew, ChopCult, The Vintage Monkey, Grease N Gasoline, Rust Revival, Old Soul, Show Class, Busch and Busch, CafeRacerXXX, Culver Customs, Angry Blue, and Shitluck.
