06 Pandemic Poll - AZPX SkateRock installment
Rob Locker of local skateboard/record label/promotion company
AZPX does what many folks only wish they could do - release
records by great local artists past and present like Junior
Achievement and the Smoky Mountain Skullbusters and throw
shows by skate rock greats like JFA. Heres what Locker
has to say about the 06
Top 5 Subject: The 5 best live performances of music I
have attended this year. I went to a ton of shows this year
but there are 5 particular performances that really stood
out. Before I get going, I want to thank Mr. BJK for regarding
my silly opinions as worthy tripe for his blog
.I am
pretty sure he assumed I will do a biased SkateRock list
and
he is right. Secondly, I wouldnt be doing this if
it wasnt for my mentor, MVC aka The Professor-OG
bassist for JFA. Thirdly, SkateRock doesnt mean its
a band of skateboarders. SkateRock is a state of mind which
propels you to go skate.
I aint gonna spew no dates cause I cant
remember them.
3.
Greenhaven at Chasers 8th anniversary show. Man, I
went to see Nebula that night, they cancelled. I shot over
to Chasers to catch Greenhavens set and was not disappointed!
Nebula who? The only band I saw all year where everyone
in the 300+ audience knew EVERY word to EVERY song. If these
guys dont receive the best local release for 2006
The Last Powerful Second, Im moving to
New Mexico.
