On Saturday, March 10th we had a memorial session/ BBQ in Keaton’s name. We shredded all day and at the end of the session spread some of his ashes and cried together. It was an incredibly powerful day and weekend that brought us all that much closer.
Keaton, we love you brother, rest in peace. Filmed and edited by Anthony Medina. Additional Filming by Foogie Bartels.
Music: 13th Floor Elevators - Gloria (Cover).
Here is the last filmed footage of my dude Keaton Newsom. This footage was not used due to audio issues that weren’t resolved until recently. This is also the first installment in The End of The ComeDown series. Throughout the following weeks you will be seeing never before seen footage from when we filmed the first official ComeDown video 3 years ago and more recently filmed footage. Keaton you were more like a brother to me than just a friend and you will be deeply missed be me and many more. We love you brother. R.I.P. - Austin Bartels.

This video was originally on Vimeo but was removed and lost for quite some time. I recently was able to find it and here it is, re-uploaded. This was considered the “warm-up” to Keaton’s section in the “City Never Sleeps” by Brian “BMO” Moore. R.I.P. Keaton. We love you bud. - TexasBlading.
