Ever wonder what goes on backstage when a band full of pro skateboarders is playing. Of course games of skate, duh. Check this game out Dustin Dollin vs. Goat guitar player, Andrew Reynolds, getting their S.A.T.E. backstage at a Goat show. Dustin seems like he had a few drinks, and Reynolds doesn't drink, so it was like Drunkard vs. Sobered. Dollin purposely breaks the board, and claims he won. Check it:

The Skate Park of Tampa's own Brian Schaeffer caught up with the concrete killer, Tony Trujillo, over in Europe recently. Check out a little video interview:

Hell, I think Koston should put this guyon retainer. You know for demos, and all the other "meet and creep"things he has to go to. All he'll have to do is top whatever AuntieAnnie pays.

You can always count on Mr. Koston for good tweets, or twits, or whatever you call them. Here's the first twit of the year that made the cut:

"I wish LA was always hungover."

I feel the same way. Today's a good day to get stuff done, the freeways are clear.
