keep on moving your feet

New Travis Barker album.......SHIT HOT!!!!

my soundtrack?

There must be some truth in it, when people say music saved my life. I do get it. Music has certainly made my life better at times Im not sure it saved me but i think it has helped. Im doing this thing at the moment where I have to map my life out on a chart putting in all the positive things that have happened to me and all the negative also. Now it can be really tricky to remember everything thats happened to you but nothing brings a memory back like a song. I mean do you remember when you were 11 years old? No nor did I but when i hear "The Power of Love" by Huey Lewis and the News it comes flooding back! That track was on the soundtrack to the 1st Back to the Future movie. That movie made me want to be a skateboarder more then any other single thing in my entire life! So in some weird way the music is the memory. I can recall the 1st time i heard Black Flag, Bad Brains, Minor Threat, Public Enemy, Slayer, NWA, Cro-Mags, Agnostic Front, Warzone, Eric B and Rakim, Slick Rick, Suicidal Tendencies and the list goes on! I suppose what Im trying to say is music maps our life in both the good and bad times. Its our own soundtrack, lets try and make it an interesting one. Im off to run a bath while listening to the new Travis Barker album. Enjoy

Mr Adams

I've been a lover of skateboarding for as long as i can remember. Its played a massive part of my life. So many of my friends are a part of the skate community and i have to be honest I find them to be some of the most creative people I've ever met.
Jason Adams is just one of those skaters I've liked over the years. Always liked his style and his attitude plus he's an amazing artist. Check his blog and his artwork.

5 months and counting

my youngest son is 5 months old today!!!! :)

its sometimes tough

for those of you that didnt know i was recently diagnosed as having depression. its a very odd feeling. its a mental illness and it affects every part of your life. the other thing is i discovered that i've been suffering from it for the last 20 years. if your going through life looking at everything in a negative way i urge you to seek out help. life is meant to be full of joy not misery and heartache. i want to thank my wonderful family and friends for being there for me. i was as low as i could be but now im slowly on the up. take care people talk soon
