While in Barcelona, Guillotine was invited (last wednesday) to a great dinner organized by limitEDitions, A.R.C. and Adidas Originals.

The event took place in one of Spain best restaurants, Tore d’Alta Mar, a 75 meter over the sea platform, with some of the best views over the city of Barcelona. Street Culture big thinkers/makers all gathered in a restaurant is something pretty impressive! How often do you see Nike, Adidas, Reebok, Vans, Asics and Lacoste under the same roof, speaking about the furure of the industry while sharing great Mediterranean cuisine?

Some of the lucky invited ones were: Opium, SlamJam, Stüssy, Gimme 5, Nike (nice to see you again Julien!), Jeff Staple, Crooked Tongues, Adidas, Nice Kicks, David of Highsnobiety, Remix and Sneakers Mag (Italia), Suelas de Goma and Zapapedia (Spain), Sneaker Freaker Spain, A.R.C., Alife Distribution (Whattup Pierre!), Kangol, Gary and Wally from Patta, Concrete, Caliroots, Fred Perry, Goodfoot, Sneakernstuff, Wood Wood, Foot Patrol, Hanon Shop, Starcow, limitEDitions, Leah, Erin and Joanne from M.O.B., Vans, Reebok, Asics, Lacoste, Salomon… Impressive right?

Many thanks to Ricky (limitEDeditions, Chikashitsu and Opium Barcelona/Black is Beauty) for taking care of everything, we’ll remember this for a long time! We loved meeting and speaking to all of you guys! This should take place more often…

Arrived to LA yesterday morning where I’m staying at my very good friends Carmen and Adam! Carmen just got her Medical ID to buy healing herbs yesterday, which basically means you get to buy great pot at a local farmacy.

Gotta thank a few people today! First, that’s Matt above from The Darkside Initiative (that place used to be Recon SF on Powell). He offered me the green Sophnet. X Nike Free Trail 5.0 at the crazy price of $70. Thanks a lot man, I really appreciate that! More after the jump…

Madrid is getting ready to celebrate two big events in the next days. First and foremost, the victory of the Real Madrid in the Spanish League of Football. It always comes down to this, they just always win. Party will take place when they officially win, which should happen this sunday, or next game, as usual around the Foutain of Cibeles, and should gather thousands of people! The other event is the celebration of the Dos de Mayo, the uprising of the people of Madrid in 1808 against the occupation army of the French leaded by Napoleon… Next are also some random shots from downtown taken on this week end. Have a nice Sunday!
