MOTU Traveler And Martin Backpacker: Tod A's Globetrotting Luggage

June 06, 2008
Traveling With Gear

Firewater's Tod A doesn't get emotional about gear. He compares good gear to a hammer. It works for a while, and then it needs to be replaced. Of course, that comparison is lost on you if you're as big of a hammer enthusiast as I am. Nothing like a 32 oz. Fiberglass Ball Pein to drive in those nails, am I right?

Returning from that tangent, Tod A also talks about traversing the world with different gear that is or is at least supposed to be portable on his quest to find the spirit of punk in every hemisphere.
