Boston Punk / Skate Rock.

Skater boiz...

So, I saw these dewdz chillin in front of OTC in Chicago while walking from work to the train. I gave them soem of Mai "it's not a handle" buttons a few "R U 4 SRSLY" and one "PWND," I think they were stoked.

I got a brewdog, and a slice of 'za for the ride home and they were on the saem train.

They reminded me of Mai friends and I when we would take the train in to the city to shred. One of those friends being Steve, who owns Yeah! Boardshop in Bartlett, IL.

They were okay kids from waht I could tell. There was the loud one who made noises and dumb jokes, the quiet one who just chilled to (I wanna think) Slayer in his headphones, and the moderator who wanted them to use their inside voices. I hope they keep skating, and I get to ride with them soemday. Maybe at Wilson.

Skate Healthy...

So, it's key to stay healthy when you skate, natural stamina from fruit (pineapple) and water rather than dehydrating synthetics like energy drinx and oatmeal cream pies.

Steve Perdue...

So, last April (2010) I was skating at STC-1 with local ripper, and Yeah! Boardshop rider, Steve Perdue.

I had just gotten mai cammy off ebay and was antsy to get soem footy. 

I asked him if I could film him do soemthing and this is waht he did, First Try.

Steve is a real laid back guy, always with a smile and just wants to skate.

As of the end of this post I am currently listening to "Space" by Soundless from the "Dark Strike Express" compilation, released in 2005 on Kagdila records.

YEAH! Berricshop...

So, I was czeching oat the Berrics this morning, not the Beerics although those guys are pretty rad dewds down for a fun tyme, to look at the shop profile for mai old friend Steve's shop, YAY! A Shoppe for Boards and when the main Berrics page loaded it had an ad for Wellborn Clothing, owned by another friend of mine, Marfa.

(Wellborn on Twitter)
(Yeah on Twitter)
Win Win, two of mai friends have space on the berrics. It's all about numbers. No, not the show with Joel from Northern Exposure. Numbers as in audience recognition and expansion.
Great Job Guys.

As of the end of this post I am currently listening to "Ragu" by Shaolin Wooden Men from the compilation "Psy-Harmonic Vol.3: Hacking The Reality Myth" released in 1996 on Psy-Harmonics records. I couldn't find a video for the song "Ragu", but I did find one for the song "Ohar" from 1994.
SWM is but one of the many projects and co founder of Psy-Harmonics Ollie Olsen.

Shaolin Wooden Men is also a 1976 movie starring Jackie Chan of whom which I think all of you know.

Yeah Barney...

So, mai friend Steve has a shop called Yeah! Boradshop. I recently had the privilege of going in Three (3) days before the black friday and picking me up one of these fine Jerseys, The Invisible Barney.
This shirt is so nice and comfy I might have to go back and get a few moar. The Neck doesn't stretch out, or at least hasn't yet, and doesn't choke you either. One thing I look for in a T-shirt is if the collar stays put during its lifetime, not swimming around your neck or better yet squeezing on your esophagus making your feel like you have soemthing stuck in you throat.

Also, I picked me up another pair of the Vans "Chukka Low", I don't know waht it is about this shoe that makes me come back for moar every time. It's the only shoe I've skated all year and even the last half of last year. I think it has soemthing to do with the padded insole, it's just as thick and cushiony in the heel as the ones that come in the TNT II mids. No moar bruised heels or flattened arches from jumping or running out of failed attempts at landing difficult skateboard maneuvers.
Let's see, I had the Blue & Grey, the Mustard/Custard Yellow (which I did custom art on), the Black & Grey (also with custom art and glitter glue), and now the Olive Green on Green canvas/corduroy combo. (pictured above)
The only gripe I have with this shoe is that the side stitch comes down right across the joint of mai pinky toe. Usually I just wear the shoes for a week to stretch out the material as to not produce any blisters for post skating discomfort so I end up walking around like Fred Sanford.

As of the endof this post I am currently listening to "Jackal & Nine" by Anubian Lights from the album "Eternal Sky" released on July 13th, 1995 on Hypnotic Records.
Soem damn good Space Rock from members of Farflung, The Brain, Pressurehed and The Contortions.
