You Got Iced!

His parents know him as Kyle Kaufman. Phish fans know him as “the Met’s Guy”. I know him as Kyle Kyleson. However you may know him, you know he’s good at making party. Here Lucy Beach and Nic Rioux Iced Kyle in the lot at the Hartford Phish show.

This Icing is epic for so many reasons. The first being that Jon Allen backpacked 30 miles into remote Iceland with his friend Adam only to make him drop to a knee once they were far enough to know Adam couldn’t get a block. Then there is the fact that Ice comes in a can. There is some sort of Ice / Shotgun hybrid that needs to be done and blow our collective minds.

In celebration of two sold out @PassionPit shows at Stubb’s in Austin, TX, Brooke Wirth of C3 decided to show her appreciation post show with some refreshing Ice to cool the guys down. Above we have the guys pre-knee taking and below we have the chug.

And here are some tight shots - first is bass player Jeff Apruzzese who looks near delirious while manager Rich Cohen coaches him.

And below is Nate Donmoyer who is handling it like a pro. Congratulations on two big shows!

Here’s 5 minutes worth of footage of Bros being Iced last Saturday in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The video was made in preparation for John Faddoul’s stag which is taking place in St Johns, Newfoundland in July. Nice work Icers.

Here’s Dawson Ludwig getting Iced by Stacy Horne at the Noise Pop office. Stacy put the drink in an envelope on his desk with a note inside that said “take a knee, bitch.” Unfortunately, his form leaves something to be desired.

The victim of this Icing was Jeff “Wears Birkenstocks” Abarta, of Epitaph Records that came courtesy of Jason Weiner. Let’s hope Jeff finished the rest of his big boy.

On Tricia Olson’s last day of work at AEG Live Denver, the ladies thought that was the last they’d have seen of her. Until Monday when they returned to the office with gift bags containing Ice, (L-R Mary Sullivan, Sarah Finger, Anne Hack, Sara Williams, Ariana Zambrano, Erika Green, and Shannon Rutledge). Adios suckers!

A chill blew through the Orchard this afternoon when Joanna Wu slipped a Fedex Ice package to Jaclyn who took a knee and enjoyed.

On their way out to Florida to start their tour with Silversun Pickups and Against Me, The Henry Clay People stopped by their manager David McDonough’s house and got slammed with some ICE. Check out the video here as they struggle to finish their Ice while David coaches them on.

What’s wrong with these people? Why do they hate having fun? People need to ease up and remember - its not about being in a frat, its about making your friend chug something disgusting. And since when are frat boys the only people who partake in horrible drinking games?

PS. You are in a kickball league. Stop kidding yourself.

June 17, 2010 Nightline interview. Wow, this is stupid.

The story is on the landing page for Nightline in the lower right hand portion of the player. Check it out. I shouldn’t have cursed. Click here to be amused.

So yesterday Nightline called about doing an interview for this evenings show, (it will be on after the game and the news). I figured what the hell, I’m game, (someone give me a book deal). The kind folks at Pianos allowed us to shoot a quick interview and then they ask to get some outside shots of me walking by. As I was concentrating on not tripping on my own shoelaces, my second favorite Thurlow twin does a drive-by and Iced me on camera. Tune in to ABC this evening and never trust your Nightline crew.

You got to love 3OH!3 for embracing the Ice culture. On the last night of their tour at the Stone Pony’s outdoor concert series the gentleman took an on stage knee courtesy of Bam Bam Bigelow, (yup, the former pro wrestler). Nice work!

Aren’t bloggers supposed to stick together? Back in my day there was a code of ethics, but I guess that has been flushed down the Ice luge. Abbey Braeden of Punk Photo Iced Nora Walker of IRockIRoll and Dodge (Craig) of My Old Kentucky Blog on her roof. One blogger freaked out so we aren’t going to post his picture. C’mon dude, even Brooklyn Vegan got in on the action and he’s famous.
