Anyone remember Skatemania? I used to shop there all the time at the station arcade store. So awesome! Every time I walked in the store would be blasting punk and metal. So rad! I bought some Hosoi Rocket Rails from there, a Vision street wear shirt, some Santa Cruz Screaming Hand wheels, and a bunch of cool stickers. Got my deck from JR’s Surf And Ski. Good times!

Hey Ho, Let’s Go!!! So this year I will be at PAX Australia for the biggest gaming convention in Aus and it’s sure to be a hoot! I’ve been a few a times before and it’s always a great time. Whether I am soaking up the hottest new games from the world’s finest developers, or basking in the glory of retro games, PAX is such a blast! I am stoked to be going again this year and looking forward to all the awesomeness that these 3 days of most welcomed chaos brings.

P.S. this promo thingo is really giving off THE WARRIORS vibes and I’m here for it! CAN YOU DIG IT?

Anyone from Adelaide remember that show at the Madlove Bar with The Mark Of Cain and BUDD and it was insanely hot and they gave up on charging at the door and opened up the doors on the side of the venue and people were spilling out into the street cos of the heat? One of the best shows I've ever seen. BUDD were a powerhouse that night. Absolutely incredible. I think this was sometime in 1995.

Here’s one I picked up a long time ago and forgot all about it but it’s so good! And check out that line-up! Heavy hitters all the way! A great addition to the Ramones collection.

There will be RECORD STORE DAY titles at Sonic Shakes from 12:01am on record store day. Only a small quantity of each, some only 1 copy. But there will be some and cos only like 5 people know the store exists, you have pretty good odds on securing them. Enjoy! Sonicshakes.com
