Reservoir Dogs - Old Street, by Curley on Jul 25, 2006 13:00:01 GMT 1, There was a piece in yesterdays Guardian about the space in Old Street where the Reservoir Dogs was painted. The Story was titled <One Wall, Four Artists and Two bananas>
i have it scanned but have no idea how to put it on the site,
can i e mail it to some one who does know ??
Basically it seems that it was covered with F*ck Al Quaida and was then covered by Faille and Shepard Fairey, it seems to have has been reclaimed by Banksy however it may not be real. Anyone seen it ?
The article also says Faile wrote <Banksy Was Here> as i in it was there, i actually believe Banksy wrote that as its in the same pink paint that he has used on various pieces recently. Also have a photo of this but again have no idea how to post it on here.
Peace Curley

Reservoir Dogs - Old Street, by mido on Jul 26, 2006 1:22:18 GMT 1, The article is good but a bit too reverential in places. It's a wall.
I think the new one is obviously banksy.
I always wondered if faile or banksy did the 'banksy was here' bit - both have used that pink paint. Could be either of them. or even someone else.

Reservoir Dogs - Old Street, by HowAboutNo on Sept 30, 2006 13:15:33 GMT 1, Our intrepid roving reporter 'HowAboutNow' has just told me that Pulp Fiction has gone! Buffed back to the bare stone   Expect Sam to be on Trevor McDonut's prog Tonight.....
'Tis true. Couldnt believe it at first. Was texting Martin to tell him about new Faile stuff thats been pasted up (pics to follow soon) turned the corner and BAM. Looks shit, and what really bugs me is the rest of the shitty tags and flyposters on the building have been left intact. It makes no sense. I know its the nature of the beast and all that jazz - but it really gets my goat!! If anything this piece lifted an area thats never going to be "nice and shiny" anyway - its a stinkpit!!

Reservoir Dogs - Old Street, by danny123 on Sept 30, 2006 22:10:03 GMT 1, Has no one seen the new peice up there- not sure if its banksy but the image shows the two guys now in Banana suits holding guns instead of holding bananas - i will try and get an image tomorrow, well i'll see if its still there, it was last week.
Cheers

Thats the original (and still my all time fave street piece that I never got to see "for real") I started working in the area shortly after that one got tagged over
Banana was this one
And like I say, all the other crap is still there!!

Reservoir Dogs - Old Street, by HowAboutNo on Oct 1, 2006 22:37:56 GMT 1, This has now been replaced (by Faile again I suspect) with "NOTHING LASTS FOREVER" in big black letters, they repainted the stone wall completely white.

Yeah, I see what you mean love. And I was wrong anyhoo, as it was Shep that was rumored to have done the "Banksy Was Here" bit, painted over the Faile Dogs. Just incase someone shouts at me for psting something thats not fact based! Have to watch meself as of late for fear of not upsetting anyone!!

Its changed again, and be repainted black background, with some obscure tags and random s**tty other bits. And you know what makes me sick....I bet it stays intact for longer than Banksys.
The strange thing is, wall was buffed back to complete bare stone - but last night I could have sworn I could still see part of the Samuel L jackson banana suit. Then again I had drunk 16 steins of larger in the bavarian bar round the corner. So will check when less blurry eyed.
Peace,

Reservoir Dogs - Old Street, by lesroy on Oct 7, 2006 11:20:16 GMT 1, If I were Banksy I put up another one of my awesome pics (like the Pulp Fiction) and then afterwards I put razer wire and anti personel mines all over the roof... probably even add a little bit of grease to the drain pipe....
... that'd show the fuckers!

All I know is I will be quicker at scaling the wall to get a decent pic of it...whilst avoiding the land mines and razor wire that is!!
The landlord of the pub is shit hot on people getting up on his wall where it is...but then again that scos I mostly tried it in broad daylight....Doh!

Reservoir Dogs - Old Street, by willamsa on Oct 8, 2006 23:22:17 GMT 1, I went past yesterday (Sat 7th Oct) and could see the old banana suit version on a black background,so either
- it wasn't buffed back to stone, but pasted over with some paper that has now been removed, or
- it was buffed back to bare wall, someone repainted the banana suit version, and stuck posters back on top (who would do that ?  )
