Pics from last night’s show at the Cow Palace featuring Testament, Slayer and Megadeth. Sick show. Saw hella folks down there like R.D, G-Man, Xavier, Logan, Jesse, Aria and Arco to name a few. I was half-past faded…in line. So…yeah, sorta don’t remember much after I sat down…but it was sick regardless!
















Thursdays is the new Friday!!! Yep Yep…This Thursday, if you’re still not hungover from the big ass Testament/Slayer/Megadeth concert, strike thru to the Rock-It Room over on Clement and 5th Ave. in the City. Its where the old Last Day Saloon used to be back in the days. Equipto is dropping a new CD and having a record release for “Man’s World”. He’ll be rockin’ that shit live.

EMB4EVER, a collective of skateboarders who long for the city’s seedier days when skaters in the late ’80s took over Justin Herman Plaza (turning it into “EMB” or Embarko) are still remembering the good old days and throwing a party for themselves in Potrero del Sol home of the the La Raza Skate Park.
Just a hump day reminder that the OH BOO BBQ is this Saturday August 28th at the Potrero Del Sol Skatepark (25th & Utah) SF,CA. Pretty much, just show up. Toad and Salmon will be on the parkside holding down their annual Chili Bowl while we’ll be lurking hard by the tables with the usual. Blunts, brews and BBQ. Oh and OH BOO. Bring yo’self, bring some shit to grill or drink. it’s all good. Should be nice weather, plus the muthafuckin’ Chili Bowl is going down!!!


Still trying to get some of these James Ray Kelch tees made up. Proceeds from the shirt will go to the Big Dirt Going Back To Cali fund. If they’re not ready by then, I’ll have them available online.

Urie!!! Another August birthday. This one belong’s to young Mike Carroll. If you see Nerd out there give him a “Yeah Nerd!” and a bow before you get him a round! Happy birthday dude!

Pics from last night’s Rebel 8 / PBR / Breast Cancer fundraiser event. Shit was crackin’. #wishyouwerethere. Too hungover to write proper content right now so…there’s 17,000 words below.

















DWNTWN skate shop had an art show featuring photographers Brad Evans, Travis Jensen and Troy Holden. Shit was tight. Literally and figuratively. DWNTWN is a tiny little shop down on Hyde in the Ls if you’re not familiar with it. It’s tight, but it’s tight! They’re moving soon to a bigger location, but that’s another story.
There was plenty of lurking to be done. Beers were…not flowing but steady in my coozie. LOL. and lots of unmentionable mishaps in the back alley. Frank Chu even made a guest appearance and made the lovely young hipster chicks swoon and take flicks like Paparazi was playing in the background. Peep the pics below and thanks to Johnny Roughneck for the good time.












Lil’ something for your viewing pleasure. boosted it from TSW. Jon Keehn, EMB OG Karl Watson, Sean Mcilvain, Carlos Young and friend of the fam Travis Jensen. Enjoy.
