Risk: Old Habits Die Hard

I was lucky enough to check out this secret Risk show before I got really sick. Would have taken more pics if I wasn't feeling like shit, but I sure had a blast. The house was a piece of art as Risk did his signature "beautifully destroyed" drips from top to bottom as the inside was filled with neon lights and many collaborations. Photos courtesy of Birdman.
