This weekend DQM & Vans promoted the opening of their “General” shop in SOHO (NYC) by throwing two events: first at the actual shop in SOHO and second at the House of Vans in Brooklyn. Thursday night’s party concluded the DQM x Vans General store’s opening day with free food, drinks, music, cake and a live show by Ray Barbee & the Mattson 2. Friday night continued the celebration over at the House of Vans also with free food & drinks plus a special performance by Suicidal Tendencies. Bowl session was gnarl and Suicidal was easily our second favorite show ever at HOV (Public Enemy #1). Such a great time, thanks to DQM & Vans!
