Title: Musicians who skate
Post by: Ziad on October 10, 2018, 01:28:43 PM
Who are some musicians who skated/skated?

Henry Rollins (Black Flag) He even had an Indy ad
Ian Mackaye (Minor Threat)
James Hetfield (Metallica) He had to quit due to breaking his arm many times and having Metallica cancel shows

Who else?

Not as big of a band as the ones listed, but the singer of Andrew Jackson Jihad skates and is actually kinda decent.

Talked to Charles Mootheart of Fuzz, Ty Segall Band, and CFM about skating after a Ty show once

Del the Funky Homosapien came out on stage on a skateboard when I saw Deltron 3030 a few years ago

I skated with Steve Turner from Mudhoney a little while back. Had a long chat until I realized who he was. What's your band's name?

Oh...

Very humble dude and full on skate nerd.

A few members of the Aussie rock band INXS skated (including Michael Hutchence.) And some skating can be seen in the music video of their single Kick which was released in 1987. The band met up with Gator from Vision when they went to Venice Skate Park in California.

  There's footage of Rick white ripping back in the day but I'm not sure if he skates now. Skrillex skates.  Biebes obviously.  Screaming lord salba.  Duane Peters is prolly more well known for his us bombs shit then skatikng.  He was on some TV shows with them. David Lee Roth collected decks and would follow the culture a bit.

I remembered another skater who musishes is baby SD legend Trung Ngo. He started a band TV Girl and eventually gave the whole band to his bassist.
