Reed Caught by Urban Eye

Of all the people featured on the New York Times's Urban Eye vlog—yeah, I said it: vlog—at SXSW, I of course know the one who looks the most toasted.

That's Reed. What the videographer might (or might not have) realized is that he was tripping on acid, thusly rendering him a somewhat overwhelmed and hilariously slack-jawed subject. Back in Denver, Reed is best known for two signature moves: tearing his shirt off after last call at the bar he works at and yelling "shirts are for work," and "metal face" in which he brandishes his half-clenched hand in the air and makes a pained expression. Both often involve growling.
