Wing stop

Had lunch at gr/eats with Wing Ko today. I met him in 1995 through fellow Chicagoan Paul, who was doing sound for Seam and staying at my house with the band while on tour. Wing had just moved from the Windy City to L.A., and since then he's had a hand in what are some of your favorite music clips (Pavement, Soundgarden, Weezer...) or skate videos (Goldfish, New World Order, Rodney vs. Daewon, ON Video).

In a couple months, Wing is going back to Indonesia to continue his current gig doing documentary work on people with mental illnesses. He's a real interesting and generous guy who I don't see often enough... (Most of my skate shirts and a few pairs of shoes are from him.) If you ever see Wing, definitely say hi and ask him if he's ever going to write another article for GR.
