Ok so what do you get when you mix one of the WILDEST clubs in America with a Hot Denton TX day, you get one helluva crazy show. Explicit Concepts is known all over the states for being some of the wildest enthusiast in the custom scene, from throwing there past Toppin' It All Off Shows at a strip club to there Club logo being a house trailer one thing is for certain EC is a group of party animals that truly love the custom scene. I left Jackson MS with two other EC members on a quest to make it there in one piece. We decided to take Chrissy's Durango cause it would have more room to stretch out and get comfortable for the 8 hours of driving that laid ahead of us. As we rolled into the host hotel parking lot we were greeted by the hoard of EC members that had gathered from their various chapters from all over. With adult beverages in hand the party had just decided to kick off. It wasn't long until Jimmy and Stevie from the Florida Chapter arrived and things started getting crazy. Some how or another Jimmy and myself ended in the pool along with a few other EC members in our Fruit of the Looms. There is just something about half naked woman, wet t-shirts and underwear that I enjoy. But even with all the fun it was time to call it a night. As I arrived at the Stadium it was obvious that this was going to be a great time and a great show. Big C had already taken the stage and was already engaging in what he does best DRINKING. With so many friends there I felt like I was at a family reunion instead of a show. I even had the chance to FINALLY meet people that I had talked to in Chat for over a year but had never gotten the chance to actually meet. It was cool finally meeting Techy, Duh, Texas Camber, Stretch and a whole bunch of others. As the day wore on the sun got hotter and it was obvious that TX is WAY to hot for this Cajun to endure. As the day progressed Chas finally decided to grace us with his presence at the show. Knowing that the nightlife at EC's TIAO show is CRAZY, Chas, a few of his friends (yes I know it's hard to believe but yes Chas has friends) and I decided to head to the hotel and get rested for the long night that laid ahead. After grabbing a bite to eat and resting it was time to head back to the grounds and see the much-anticipated TIAO Bikini Contest. Now I'll be the first to warn you that the nightlife gets wild at EC's show. From naked chicks to a dude that watched one to many Jackass Shows and decided to shoot fireworks out his rectal area this was one crazy ass party. It wasn't long until the heat from the Texas day was taking a toll on us so we decided to head back to the hotel and continue the activities. As the night stretched on it was finally time to throw in the towel and call it a night.

Sunday morning came way to soon and the thought of having to go back to the Texas Heat was too much to bear but that's the life of shooting shows for SSM. As I arrived to the grounds there was allot of work to be done so Chas decided to step up to the plate and take all of the show coverage pics which was much appreciated by me. As the day pressed on so did the Texas heat. I swear I don't know how ANYONE can live in Texas this place is just one simple word "HOT". It wasn't long until all of EC's hard work had paid off and it was time to pass out the awards to the people that came from near and far to attend this years TIAO. EC is known for there own special blend of awards, such as biggest Piece of Shit Award and EC's Party Award, as well as the traditional awards with BOS honors going to none other then Kevin and Christiana McCanlies with their "BAD ASS" Honda Accord wagon. There had been a friendly bet between Big C and Shey and the looser was to loose more then just the bet. The looser was to have their mullet removed and the proceeds going to the Locks of Love foundation. In case you have never heard of Locks of Love they graciously make wigs and hair pieces for Children that are victims of cancer and loose their hair during the radiation treatment stage of there recovery. It was great to see even thought Shey lost his mullet it truly was not a loss at all, as one day a needy child will receive the donated hair. As the day came to an end and the thought of driving the 8 hours home pressing on my brain, O and Chrissy blowing the horn like a wild woman I left Denton headed home and forgot my BRAND new $800.00 camera sitting under Joe's Mama's Kitchens tent. It wasn't long until my cell was ringing reminding me how big of an idiot I can be at times. But thanks to Joker from White Trash Threads the bone headed mistake was not a total loss and after a qwick stop at the Awful Waffle on I-20 near the Texas border my prize possession was returned to my care by Joker (THANKS JOKER). For those that have never attended EC's Toppin' It All Off show I don't think you truly know what your missing, this show is more then a show it's one helluva party thrown by a club that truly loves what they do and loves the scene.
