The Daily Wallop!!

Here's Stevie D and Colin C on a mission in the Jeep.
Anyway it's a mash up of Jeep's, Death Metal, Skateboarding and the inside of Crumbles motor. Like I said Daily Wallop it makes proper sense innit?
Ol' Dirty Bank Holiday

We've got some new signs up around the court- 'No skating'. Oh well, 'No Breathing' soon. Nice work on the one I look at all day Sam. John Peel will always be missed.
Tryptich kicked off last night. There is something for a'body this weekend, provided you've got cashish. Although there's a Hip Hop ban in the shop, I'd really like to see Big Daddy Kane, Biz Markie and Roxanne Shante as well as Kool Keith. Who would have thought that Scotland would have all these fools play in one weekend? Just need to remember my hip hop backpack- weed, mp3 player, house keys, cool- packed.
Got some new shralp sticks in this week from Blueprint, Landscape, Stereo, Popwar and Heroin. Something for everyone.
I was interviewed by the Scottish Skating Overlords (!), Skateboard Scotland Check it out.
Bank holiday on Monday, perfect weekend for over doing biscuits.

Independently Dead

Pay your respects by buying a set of Indy's or make a 'Page Of the Day' in the Built To Grind book.
"The founders of Independent Truck Company are Fausto Vitello, Eric Swenson, Jay Shuirman and Richard Novak. To know these four is to discover the essence of Independent; skateboarding, having fun, making money, improving products, a desire to win, and letting skaters be skaters- all with a "do it yourself/fuck off" attitude." (From Built To Grind.)
Another falls.
RIP.

Merry Weekend Chaps

Uncle John and Whitelock play tonight at Stereo with The Black Diamond Heavies. Both bands have a member missing. UJ&W are without The Jam and Heavies have lost their guitarist somewhere between Memphis and Glasgow. Should be good.
There is a folk festival starting soon. I'm sure it's called 'Folk Off', which is quite funny coming from a bunch of folk folk.
Alex Irvine is heading doon the noo to t'Burnley with Senor Div to compete in the Bowlriders qualifiers. My money is probably on Div to get to the final. I hope he beats Omar Hassan at some point.
Head over to Thrasher magazine to witness Peter Hewits little clip. That dude sure can smoke weed and do one of the best back smiths around. Want to see him in Scoregon this year.
Skate well and pop by to continue debating about biscuits and golf. ( see below posts)
Today's photo is from the lens of G.B's new camera and shows the result of backside no comply walrides. The Jam.
Anyone wanting invites to the Nike floor show, email or call glasgow@focuspocus.co.uk/01415488777

Biscuit Time!

Hiya Cowboy, you wanna lasso us some biscuits?
Aussies are collecting in Scotland. Mavie is back, Morgan is on his way back and Nate has survived winter well aside a broken skafoid.
Looking to be a good summer.
Lets lighten the debating mood here on the Blog, forget about the swoosh/golf and lets discuss when is a biscuit a biscuit?
( Is a Jaffa Cake a biscuit, discuss)
