Daewon Song kill the mini ramp

So, it looks like Sonisphere Festival is making a return to Knebworth after all in 2014 following months of rumours. They have just announced that the festival will be co-headlined by Iron Maiden who will be performing their Maiden England World Tour set and also Metallica who have announced they will play a ‘by request’ set.
Lars Ulrich of Metallica has said: “Iron Maiden are a big reason that Metallica exists in the first place. Although we haven’t played together on the same day since 1988, this is the closest we’ve come for 25 years, and for all our fans who share the same love for Iron Maiden as we, the band members do, this will hopefully amount to what many rock fans would consider a dream bill.”
Expect more to follow to add to this solid line up and tickets announcement but this is great news if you love classic metal.
Death pro Richie Jackson has set December 10th as the day that will be treating us all to a full new video part. Watch this teaser and get it in your diary.
Remind yourself of the no too distant past here:
Phil Evans’ “Coping Mechanism” movie that documents the synergy between skateboarders and their local councils to make better places to skate within Malmo’s skate scene in Sweden is about to be released on DVD.
The DVD (available from here) also comes in a special pack with select stills from the film shot by Nils Svensson and features various heads such as Richard Gilligan, Pontus Alv, Nils Svensson, Gabe Morford and many more.
Check out John Magnusson’s section in the film in which he sheds a little insight into how they manage to convince their city to get behind the skater’s ideas and a preview of Will Taylor below.
Alan Glass has dropped 28 minutes of top goofing on whizzplanks mixed with 80s classics from his travels around Bristol and beyond. Joel Curtis, Gonz, Foz, Jasper, Habgood and many more shred curbs, parks and more in Tüesday Crüe. Enjoy.
