"Immortalized: Rods and Customs of Distinction"

"Art and Rods", what a bitchin' way to spend a warm Friday evening, a band, beer, wine, food and cool people. It was the opening reception of a "Rod" inspired art exhibition in a downtown Escondido gallery called ArtHatch with artist Robert Williams.

The reception was held with wine from "Vinz Wine Bar," beer from "Stone Brewing Co.," and sounds from Gino and the Lone Gunmen. All a benefit for Cruisin' Grand and ArtHatch. Oh yeah, the event had plenty of badass car art hanging on the walls, with more of the same in machinery on the street. After hanging out inside with show curator and speaker, artist Robert Williams, we came out to a sky heavy with stars shining down on some of the coolest rides on the earth.

It was a delicious night...
