On the left hand side of the tunnel, near the 'Nobody Cares' piece was a massive scale-electrics stencil. I could only make out 'Little Boys...' but there was more. Too many people standing over it to read it fully.
Anyone know what is said and who sprayed it? Bandit?

What is the meaning and artistic merit behind your work.... ;D
Good work, the youth are the future - I was amazed how many kids were there enjoying themselves with stencils and a spraycan, real fun to watch!!

Bandit? it's by a guy called roadsworth (or peter to his friends). check out his website www.roadsworth.com:-) |

I've been reading a lot of the comments about the show, but haven't really had a chance to add much myself. I'm surprised no-one's really mentioned the Sam3 piece though. I thought it was amazing.....   |

Now then, these posters, I'd heard a lot about them on here and was up for buying one yesterday when I was at cans.
I asked someone in the ice cream van selling the fanzines if and why they were/n't selling them and the only response I got was that on either the sat or sun people were taking them without permission then she said they weren't selling well so they decided not to sell any more!! What's the point in that! You'd try and sell for the remaining day or two surely!!

Did POW remove it to stop people nicking it? Or have the vultures already descended? |

I would have thought POW would have removed anything that could be stolen. Well lets hope so.

Looks like Paul Insect was there when removed, i reckon POW will have moved it all into storage.

Woah... So nice to walk through the tunnell with about 3 other people in there this morning. You can appreciate it so much more. Although I see a few tags have appeared on a couple of pieces already.

ok the poster story this is what i heard !! they were flooging them for a fiver, an italian artist/friend took 500 odd and was selling them on the south bank for £20 each.
when someone was offered a poster for a fiver at the show they said bargain someone is flogging them for £20 else where. the "orgainiser" got wind of this and was worried that it people would think they were official so stopped selling them and was gonna burn them.

and you can now get the program for a mere £1.40 in the UK. stops those ebay flippers who were flogging them for £25 a piece over the weekend.

went back to the tunnel at 12pm today. beautiful. around 20 people in the entire tunnel. it was stunning. all the art (on the walls) is intact at the moment. a few things have been placed in there. on top of the banksy ape (with the cap on) is a jumper with graffiti writing on it stating "here's your gold". In front of the ape is a traffic cone sprayed gold with a signature on (which I couldn't make out). I recommend that you all get down there as soon as possible, as I don't think it's gonna stay this good for that long. the public spraying area is still closed.
