Video: The Legend of Cool "Disco" Dan

When I was living in Washington DC, I came to know many of the graffiti crews in the area through my work with Words, Beats and Life.  The preview below captures the true legend of one of the OG graf writers in the nation's capital. Cool "Disco" Dan had no agenda and managed to "get up" for years before anyone really thought about piecing or doing murals. He marked his travels with a simple but memorable tag and finally get's some world wide exposure from this documentary. Hosted by fellow DC natives Roger Gastman and Henry Rollins, the film has been in production for years now and with recent screenings in DC and Maryland, hopefully it will get the shine it deserves.
