Sorry so slow lately, we have officially settled into our new place and the net is up an running.

361: Chuck Biscuits….Was reported to be ALIVE today…Phew!
October 30, 2009
It seems there was a hoax yesterday claiming that punk journey man drummer Chuck Biscuits had died at the age of 44 of throat cancer. I had heard the news from my mate John Stabb yesterday via FB and was relieved to hear this morning that it was indeed a hoax. Anyway its great that he is alive and does not have cancer either and still delivering the Bread and Butter as Weep might say. Hard to believe he is only a handful of years older then most of us and has played in so many great bands over the years. I must have seen him banging away dozens of times now that I think about it. I think Ben and Weep even made it to the Danzig “Mother” video shoot as well.
Well anyway …..Chuck we are all glad to hear all is well.

“I had friends that killed themselves. I had friends that killed other people and went to jail. I had friends that got into drugs and went to jail. I had friends that overdosed and died…”
Read and see the interview here at B*Slap Magazine:
This stuff actually works I swear I tried on a pair of those Black n White NIKE SB shoes that Lance sports just two days ago, I quickly dropped em and kicked em over to the counter when the ‘Your not 17 anymore police stormed the place and had me at gun point”
359: MOOSE, TAG & BAUM: New decks for 2009

I dig the new Dharma deck design for this Darren Menditto.
New updated Flying pig motif for Tag…and
I made the entire post one big clicky so you can see all of the efforts at the folks over at Never Again and Death March. I believe these boards are limited so get em while you can.

356: Matt Padulo, Bernie O’dowd, Jeff Jones and Harry Jumonji 1984 Contest at Silver Apple Skate Shop in New jersey
September 24, 2009
Matt Padulo
Wow! That really is crazy to see. I’m not really sure how old I was in this picture. I do remember entering the contest in the younger division then everyone I was with so maybe I was 13 years old? The ramp was made out of what seemed like fiberglass that sounded really hollow but road solid at the same time. I don’t even think I dropped in on the ramp so when I started a line had to run up the ramp, fakie once or twice, and then start my run. At the time I did all my airs just below or @ the top of the ramp, and I think was doing some Inverts about mid transition. I wound up taking 2nd and won a Lance Mountain deck which I saved for a while, but eventually road and shred up.
Can never get enough pics of the old days!
