Kyle Kyleson 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.
Adam Got Iced, (In Iceland).
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.
Passion Pit Got Iced.
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...
Dawson Ludwig Got Iced.
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.
Ladies Of AEG Denver Got Iced.
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!
Jaclyn Ranere Got Iced.
A chill blew through the Orchard this afternoon when Joanna Wu slipped a Fedex Ice package to Jaclyn who took a knee and enjoyed.
The Henry Clay People Got Iced.
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.
Brooklyn Kickball Is Excommunicated.
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.
In Case You Missed Nightline.
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.
Don't Trust Nightline!
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...
3OH!3 Got Iced On Stage.
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!
Nora & Craig Got Iced.
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...
Jeremy Maciak Got Iced.
Greig Bennett from The Thread Shop and Renee Brodeur Iced Jeremy Maciak from Vagrant Records. A special delivery from an intern turned into a drop & drink in the middle of the Sony store.
Ian & David Got Iced, (at The Tony's).
People say the red carpet can be awfully hot, thankfully Ian Wheeler and David Ward had Ice Queen Latifah - Katie Alexander - there to cool them off at this year’s Tony Awards.
All-American Tyler Fiorito Got Iced.
Princeton goalie Tyler got an All-American Ice courtesy of DJ Dick and Lacey at the NCAA tournament Championship Game in Baltimore.
Dana Meyerson Got Iced.
As the Biz3 crew took a well deserved beer break in the backyard late Friday afternoon, they surprised their favorite coworker, Dana Meyerson, with an Ice. Their boss, Kathryn Frazier, asked them to make an animated gif of the situation. Unfortunately they missed Dana spitting up an entire gulp all over Kathryn’s 2 year old son. Drink responsibly.
Duke Lacrosse Got Iced.
In the wake of the Bros Icing Bros take down, we’ll need to help the Bro sect out by posting some photos so they don’t go through withdrawl. Here is Christian Walsh of the Duke Lacrosse team taking a knee.
Nicole Strober Got Iced.
Summer Friday’s rule, but in this case, an early Friday departure bit Nicole on the ass when she returned to work at 3D Management on Monday only to see a room temperature Ice on her desk courtesy of Jonathan Gottlieb.
Jeff Krones Got Iced.
Here at YGI, we don’t care who you’re route for during the World Cup, but David Klein and Bobby Cory had a problem with Jeff routing for England on US soil so they put him in the cooler.
Then There Was One.
Its a sad day in the world of Icing. Bro’s Icing Bro’s has decided to hang it up. We’ll miss their willingness to keep the movement sliding forward. Now kiss the ring.
Doug, Pete Wentz & Scott Got Iced.
A blizzard blew through the Crush Mgmt office last week courtesy of Pete Wentz’s publicist Nadine. Joining Pete on one knee was Doug Neumann and Scott Nagelberg.
Jay & Paul Got Iced.
This is another onstage Icing from the Ice Cruise, except neither of us were supposed to be up there. Funny thing is that I don’t think anyone actually Iced Paul and Jay, they just decided to take a knee and chug. Bonus points for Beach who was acting as a crutch for Craig Finn in the background.
C3 Company Picnic Got Iced.
Doing a bit of clean up and found a few leftover Icings from the C3 company picnic. Above we have the Mighty Quinn in the pool. Below we have Jesse who got Iced by Justin and at the bottem Megan Allen takes a knee.
Justin Smith Got Iced.
Justin Smith of C3 was out on a business trip last week, when Jeff Lawson thought he deserved a nice, lukewarm Ice when he got back in the office on Monday morning.
Todd Goodwin Got Iced.
Allowing the birthday boy to Ice you is like eating Santa’s cookies; you just can’t let it happen. But here Todd Goodwin goes down at Jason Hradil’s birthday celebration at the hand of the birthday boy.
Miike Snow Got Iced.
‘
You would assume that a Swedish band is used to the cold, but they didn’t plan on an Ice storm when they played Jimmy Kimmel last week. Mac made sure they felt right at home.
Dan Teree Got Iced.
Icing has finally hit the Ticketfly SF office. After an epicly long meeting Teree walked out of the conference room to find a UPS box on his desk. He thought it was from the PR team but little did he know it was actually a Green Apple Ice.
David Klein Got Iced.
Like Ahab stalked his White Whale in the open sea, Jeff Krones hunted David Klein through a sea of hippies at this year’s Bonnaroo festival. He got Iced while waiting on a drink.
Free Energy Got Iced.
What tops an onstage Icing? Not that much. Here we have Free Energy taking a set break at Jerky’s Bar in Providence, Rhode Island courtesy of their tourmates Jukebox the Ghost.
A Great Email From Rich Jones.
This guy must be a serious bro. Check out the email he sent just moments ago. Apparently there is something wrong with the prose of this site. He is assuming I give a shit and he is also assuming we are taking this “fad” seriously. He kind of reminds me of the Anal Cunt song, “Steroids Guy.”
Subject: This is not ‘Hipsters Icing Hipsters’
You’re diluting...
NY Newspapers Don't Have Fact Checkers?
Wow, I’m stunned. Today I opened up the NY Post and there was a story on Icing. Not only did I waste my time taking the writers calls, but they also incorrectly credited the site, (just like the fucking NY Times). I’m not so much worried about getting in the papers, but just wondering what kind of copy editors and fact checkers are running these crumbling insitutions. You can’t...
RCA Got Iced.
Last week Ryan Warnberg of RCA records decided it would be a good idea to go on an Icing spree. He started with Jordan Blaugrund who *surprise* took it down after a lot of whining. Then after a meeting with Ed Rivadavia and Chris Boghigian, Ryan decided his closing remarks would include a double Icing.
Then, Ryan hid an Ice in a poster tube and sent it to Sony merch dude Pete Bongiovi. He...
Leslie Cooper & Olly Peacock Got Iced.
Is there anything sweeter than Icing a married couple? They think they are so refined because they go apple picking and do the jumble together, and then boom they get brought down to earth on a slippery Ice luge. Here Leslie Cooper and Olly Peacock of Gomez go down at the behest of Jules Handel.
Jesus AKA John Martin Got Iced.
While attempting to explain the rules of a good Icing to some foreigners, John got an Icy smack down courtesy of Jon Bahr.
Michael Winsch Got Iced.
The boss has to be careful when he goes out to see with his employees. It can get pretty lawless out there. Here we have Michael Winsch taking a knee at the hand of Mike Leonard.
Annie & John Selden Got Iced.
Cecilia Lederer and her friends Miles Klee and Spike Friedman Iced their best friends: the bride (Annie Selden nee Smith) and groom (John Selden) at their wedding this weekend in Indianapolis, Indiana. They took it like champs! Shortly after a rampage of Icing took place and nearly everyone got hit.
Deer Tick Got Iced.
@Deertickmusic’s John McCauley was the recipient of our first onstage Icing during his set on the now legendary Ice Cruise of 2010. He proceeded to do 2 or 3 more throughout the course of their set.
The NYTimes Got Iced.
Well, actually they didn’t - they just ran a story on Icing. Check it out here and pick up a copy to see the bonus photo on the front page of the business section. With three Ian’s you can’t go wrong. May the Ice be with you.
Christine Cao Got Iced.
What happens when you move from contracts to an agent’s desk at CAA? As Christine learned quickly from Tricia Olson, it means you get Iced.
Doug Croy Got Iced.
Was it a delicious sandwich or a refreshing Ice? It came from Kaplan so it must be Icy. Doug takes a power lunch at the Agency Group offices.
Tim Putnam Got Iced.
To celebrate the release of their third record, Deer Tick decided to put @partisanrecords Tim Putnam on Ice.
Fake Problems Got Iced.
On a recent trip to LA, David Jacobs stopped by the studio to make sure @Fakeproblems wasn’t overheating. Ted Hutt had been working them hard so David cooled them off with some Strawberry Acai.
Spencer Hall Got Iced.
A mid-panel Icing went down at this year’s Blogs with Balls 3 conference. Good show!
Cheap Girls Got Iced.
@Cheap_Girls stopped by @BridgeCityInd to say hello on their way through town, (after playing a show at The Know in Portland). They thought they were going to get lunch with Chris; instead they got Iced.
Nick Stern Got Iced.
Nick was up at Jimmy Fallon with his band Circa Survive. While he was hatching a plan to Ice Jimmy on air, he put his guard down and got Iced by Jonathan Cohen.
David Galea Got Iced.
And we’ll end with the beginning. Justin Bridgewater nailed David Galea with the boat cruises first official Icing.
Seth Kallen Got Iced.
Josh Moore popped Seth’s Ice cherry on the cruise.
