Hi,
Below you will find one of the cooler videos I have ever seen, compliments of Mr. Tony Hawk.
Go Skateboarding Day, Kabul 2011 from Skateistan on Vimeo.
And yes, since you asked, I own an original Tony Hawk mini deck from 1983. Not the actual one I owned when I was 12. But it reminds me of the one I owned when I was 12. Which reminds me of things like Not Having Fear.
And yes, since you asked, tonight I will be performing again with the great Kris Gruen. This time at Bruar Falls. Which reminds me … do they have a bass amp there?
And yes, tomorrow you can see Mother Feather. I promise, we look better than our website.
And yes, since you were wondering, the great(ish) Andy Fitzpatrick will be back at Rockwood Music Hall this Sunday at 10pm.
Enough about me … how have you been?
Zzzzzzzzzzz …
Mwah!

P.S. Someone totally just farted.
Hi,
Even though I never received the 8x10 signed photo of Tony Hawk that incentivized my donation to the Tony Hawk Foundation I am still pretty pumped to know that my $20.00 helped build a brand spanking new skate park! So, if you or someone you love loves the art of skateboarding and lives within 40 or so miles of Long Beach, CA I totally suggest you go there and think of me and all the money my physical therapist makes off of my insurance provider while you’re shredding.
And speaking of people who will totally forget about you and your pathetic little life after you’ve so generously donated to their cause, don’t forget that today is the last day to get advance tickets for a certain rock and roll show featuring something called “Mother Feather.” And in case you haven’t been paying attention, said rock and roll show featuring something called “Mother Feather” is being put on in order to raise something called “money” in order to do something called “record more music.” So, while you’re at the show you be able to purchase T-Shirts of women kissing and other things like “the last batch of music we recorded” and then go home feeling all warm and fuzzy that you supported your local community of artistsdklfhjgaslkhgpbnsv;df/klgad’;g entobjdf’glv ;afjsd;fhjsoi;dbnvs’jdsfkdjfbamc .zmxns.jdnvsdfvksjndamcfndsjfsdkv.sdmfnas/dkfnakds. Baarf.

See you tomorrow.
Mwah!
