So I was just on myspace about to leave a comment on my friend’s page, naturally I nosed around his comments and found this.
What a dumb ass …
and who the fuck is MAGIBON? Hmm …
Well hot damn! Look at the names on this roster. Commemorating 30 years of undenying service to skaters everywhere, Independent Tuck Co. is settin’ sail for a national tour sure to go down in the books.
With the team riders rotating in shifts through out the tour, there will be a whole lot of action at various skate jams, BBQs and parties. And who better to document this trip than Thrasher.
Don’ we just all love this site … Wednesdays with REDA is up. The road to Deluxe is a long one. Parts 3 (already up), 4 and 5 throughout the day! So keep clickin’ back to The Berrics to see the rest of these funny, shredful installments. But until then, go behind the scenes at The Berrics with DVS (below). Good stuff, shows you just how involved Steve Berra really is with his newest venture and a helpful breakdown of all the sections within The Berrics … busy busy busy.
Yesterday was Eric Koston’s birthday. So many rad people have April 29th birthdays, including myself!
Well, ever since their December 10, 2007 reunion show in London, there has been a plethora of rumors and speculation in regards to a Led Zeppelin reunion tour. I’m not only speaking for myself when I say, I’d probably vomit out of pure excitement and untamed happiness to witness one of my top 5 musicians of all time perform. No longer, would I have to search for that time machine, or dream of being Pamela Des Barres or some other infamous Band-Aid lurking at he Riot House or backstage exits.
So are they gonna tour again? It may be wishful thinking, but I think they will. Fuck, Stone Temple Pilots got back together in the hopes of being an opening act, if and when Led Zeppelin decide to tour again. Page and Plant toured back in 98 and now Plant is about to embark on a tour with contemporary blue grass artist, Alison Krauss. I think Led Zeppelin would have definitely gone on tour in 08 had the amazing Robert Plant not been commited to this new project with Krauss. But nonetheless, the sky is looking clear and a reunion tour is more than a definite possiblitly in the latter of 08, or early 09. Click here for more butterflies and anxiety atacks in the hopes of catching Zeppelin live.
Don’t get all “tangled up in blue” this summer, but do “search and destroy” some of the best music festival line ups to date. Two of the most influential musicians have been added to the Virgin Mobile Festival. Bringing one of America’s most favored songwriters and punk’s notoriously shocking, yet pleasing performer, Iggy and The Stooges. I’ve seen them both on separate occasions and it’s just fuckin’ amazing. Especially seeing Iggy still doing his energized acts just as if he were still at Max’s back in 1970. With Kanye West, Nine Inch Nails, The Black Keys, and the return of the Stone Temple Pilots, amongst other fine acts, this Baltimore based festival is lookin’ hot. Tickets go on sale May 3, 2008.
Absolutely epic video (below) from an Iggy and The Stooges performance last year in NYC. Up and personal, shows you just how crazy this 51 year-old punk icon still is. I get chills watching this vid, just knowing his history and what a contribution he has been to rock n’ roll as a whole.
These guys are epic and bring back the root of what rock n’ roll was made of. If you missed the first half of their entirely SOLD OUT North American Tour, or if you’ve just finally caught on to this inspiring duo, (well you should check out their past 4 albums first off, nothing but the goods) they have added a whole slew of new tour dates. Be smart and buy the tickets ahead of time!
And for all you gamers, The Black Keys new hit song “Strange Times,” is featured in the latest version of Grand Theft Auto - IN STORES TODAY!!!! Check it out here. And watch their cool “Strange Times” vid below.

It’s more than just the exciting races; music, food, booze, and fun! Get yo tickets here. PS - The Briefs are she shit! So check em’ out of Friday at The Punk’s Not Dead show (below). It’s free!
I don’t know how many years it’s been since I’ve flown this degenerate airline, but I hope I’m never subjected to it again. I always fly United (for the most part) and now I know why; for the quality of service and not feeling like a 3rd world immigrant cruising around on a over loaded vehicle with some chickens and goats.
I won’t fly this flying city bus ever again.
Headed to SF this weekend for some good times . Stay tuned for some pics of boobs and stuff.
Ewww … Whether you like it or not, girls can be pretty fuckin’ dirty. And I’m not talking about promiscuity either. I am talking about however, bad hygiene. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been in a public bathroom and some dirtball of a girl is too lazy to wash her hands after the loo. Geez, I don’t even touch the door handle on my way out. If there is a handle, I use a paper towel. If it’s a push door, I use my ass.
So I’m washing my hands in this public bathroom, which was quickly begining to smell like a sewer. The girl in the next stall must of been blowing up the joint. She comes out, applies lip gloss and kick finger comb through, then walks out the door. Yuck! Not only did she take gnarley shit that smelled worse than my brothers, but the broad didn’t even wash her hands. I wonder if there was any fecal matter on her fingers as she rubbed her sticky lip gloss into her paper thin lips!
I got a couple girlfriends that I’ve noticed don’t wash their hands after using the bathroom. I won’t mention any names, but I observe this shit. So when I don’t wanna share my lip gloss or finger foods with you, it’s not cause I’m trying to be a bitch, but you dirty! And what’s even worse, is some of them just sit directly on a public toilet! Now that’s just disgusting. Us girls always go into the bathroom together, and I get totally grossed out when a friend of mine sits on the nasty toilet with out a cover. I even feel worse for the poor sucker that ends up messing around with her that evening. Clean girls hover, and nice clean girls use a toilet seat cover while they hover as a courtesy so the next girl in doesn’t have to sit on a droplets of piss, that mysteriously soak through a toilet seat cover.
So girls, keep it clean and don’t be lazy. Wash your hands and maybe they won’t look like some dirty skater’s hands after a crazy sesh (or smell for that matter). As for toilets, you best be taking care of the treasure box in between those legs, or not even the dirtiest of pirates will want to unlock the jewels of desire. Besides, hovering is great for the glutes and quads.
Listen closely to the first 15 seconds of the performance … I swear she let’s out a belch to her Nirvana intro.
She rocks out with the voice of a soul sista! Beth Ditto, the volumptuous front woman of the high energy rock n’ soul band, The Gossip, is one free spirited lady. I have a few of their tunes and I like em’. But after seeing a few clips of them on MTV, it makes me really want to catch them live. This girl is nuts! And I give her mad props for doing what she does, even if I think she should throw a little more clothes on. Her voice and energy is super intense, but definitely on point. But damn girl! You need to slow yo’ roll! There’s a whole lot of moving that consists of some massive shakes and unusual gyrating. She’s like a glammed up Roseanne Barr with the voice of Aretha Franklin. For being the large size that she is, her boobs look like they’re about to knock out one of her pencil-thin fans (check out the video above). And some of the get-ups she wears, well shit, I know skinny bitches that won’t even prance around like that in their skibbies. But oh, not Beth Ditto:
Nonetheless, this chick rocks! Her voice, style, energy, and carefree nature are what make her so loved. Check out The Gossip’s “Live In Liverpool,” a deluxe Live CD/DVD combination package. It just dropped on the 15th so check it! You’ll get a good taste of what I’m talking about.
Looks like our favorite coconut tree dweller will be parting ways with his massive guitar collection. Apparently he’s got 3,000 guitars, which I’m sure are all pretty damn sic. Of this collection he’s only played about 10 of them. Keith’s got plans to give them away or make a museum. Whatever he does, I sure as hell would love one of them! Hell! I’d be happy with his guitar pic or even a finger nail clipping of his.
Many of his guitars were given to him as gifts. And as the “Soul Survivor” that he is, Keith said, “I don’t know what I’ve done to deserve that. I’ve been one of the biggest assholes in the world!”
After so many promises and teasing, they finally came through. This awesome news will bring a smile to my nephew’s face. Not to mention mine, whenever I come for a visit. Get ready Nate-dog, it’s time for a challenge.
As stated in the press release: Harmonix and MTV Games announced the first complete album to be added to the Rock Band downloadable content catalog: Judas Priest’s 1982 classic, Screaming For Vengeance. On April 22, some of the most influential metal tracks of all time will get new life as Screaming For Vengeance becomes the first complete album to be released as blistering game play levels in Rock Band. The album’s plethora of highlights includes smash radio hit “You’ve Got Another Thing Comin’,” “Bloodstone,” title track “Screaming For Vengeance” and “Electric Eye.” Black leather and chains sold separately … Read full press release here
So I get out of a nice hot, steamy shower this evening, and normally I would play some tunes as I pamper my skin with some yummy lotion. But this time, I turned on the tube and there was this sick lil metal band performing on a previously taped Jimmy Kimmel Show. These kids were rocking out! And it didn’t hurt that they were easy on the eyes. What can I say, I love long hair and I also don’t mind them young.
Black Tide hail from Miami, (yeah, a metal band from Miami … weird )and have just dropped their first full album, Light From Above, off Interscope records. Damn! Barely legal (well almost), these boys are already on a major label and touring internationally. It takes some bands albums and albums to reach the grounds these kids are breaking. They’re pretty much on their way to being the biggest rock/metal sensations since their buddies Avenged Sevenfold (but rest assure, they don’t wear silly make-up). Oh, and for all you groupies and cougars, these young bucks are single and ready to mingle.
Purchase their tunes here
Check out their newest vid. Some thrashing not only on the guitar, but skateboards and partying. I’d embed it, but Universal is being gay.
Well this year’s éS Game of SKATE won’t be taking place at ASR. Instead they have moved the game to the biggest ($$$) skate competition to ever grace the industry. The Maloof Money Cup will be hosting the final Amateur World Championships and Pro Invitational, on July 11-13, 2008 in Costa Mesa, CA at the Orange County Fair Grounds. Presented by Boost Mobile, the éS Game of SKATE only gets more intense every year and sure to be an event not to miss! Check out the official eS Game of Skate site for tour locations and how to get in on the action.
Alright, we all got our embarrassing pleasures. Whether it’s listening to a lame band like Good Charlotte or some kinky shit like shrimping (I used to date a guy that had quite a selection of porn, a lil more than usual, and he got kicks off watching foot fetish porn.). Anyhow, some of us like watching terrible reality TV. I’m definitely a victim of this sinful indulgence.
So I was watching Paradise Hotel yesterday and couldn’t help but wonder what kind of dumb asses would actually go on such a show. I think that’s why I watch this reality bull shit, to laugh at all these lamers crying their eyes out and confessing their “issues” on national television … pathetic, but so entertaining. They cry over loosing someone they’ve only know on the show for like 5 days and get mad at each other at any sign of “playing the game.” Well guess what, it is a game, so quit fuckin wining.
I think that Mike guy is a tool, he refers to everyone as his best friend. That Myrna girl wears way too much make-up, bet you I could scrape that gunk off with my nail. She talks in such a stuck up tone! I’d pay money to see her get a donkey punch. Poor Krista, she’s nice, but kinda does look like a troll. And big boobied Stephanie has a metal grill on her bottom row of teeth. I can’t help but laugh whenever it’s revealed. That Aaron guy was crying like a little bitch yesterday. What a puss. And James is a drama queen, but he plays the game well. Now, that hot surfer with the mustache, Ryan, why the hell is he on that show? He’s the only guy on there that actually seems cool.
Yep, so I’m pretty much a lamer myself for liking this show, enough so to blog about it. Oh boy! I can’t wait till the next episode.
Tis the season for a shit load of music festivals. Although, none have completely tickled my fancy. I do plan on attending the Austin City Limits. Their line up rocks and consists of some greats such as Roky Erickson, The Black Keys, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss, Tegan and Sara, Del, and the list goes on. I prefer this roster over the upcoming Coachella, Bonnaroo and All Points West. But to each their own. Check out this article for more info on all four events.
I don’t know why Slightly Stoopid is on there … that’s just stoops! Well, at least their from San Diego.
Green as Goo and climbing back up through your kitchen drain …
From the depths of hell straight to your monitor!!! Creature’s new website has been unleashed on the internet.. This budweiser and jameson fueled masterpiece can be viewed at creatureskateboards.com and includes things like a list of dudes and some skulls and stuff.
Don’t be a kook, Get in the van!
Well, it all went down Saturday night at the swanky Boulevard 3 in Hollywood. The celebration was set up as a red carpet event and damn was it packed. With a fine selection of women, the party definetely lacked on quality of men. Seemed like just a bunch of LA tools with bad fashion sense. The party was the goods nonetheless, and we enjoyed some great scenery to the sip of our $11 drinks. Headed on over to the always awesome 4100 Bar in Silverlake and sealed a great night.
