Thatā€™s rad. Korahn is such a fucking good human.

Fucking legend.

But an actual legend.

Not the sort of legend when people just throw out that word when they donā€™t actually mean it.

Hey all - new poster here. Iā€™ve been scouring for a UK skate video from the 2000s that focused on London, had Clash - London Calling on the soundtrack, and featured a part with a skater getting up in the middle of the night to go and rip the streets in the dark. I absolutely rinsed it growing up when I first started skating and would love to find it again, but canā€™t for the life of me remember what the video was / who the skater(s) were.

Ring any bells for anyone?

Have been through all the vids above to no avail. (Some sick stuff though!)

Peace,
Will

Sounds like ā€˜Day in the City oneā€™ the full vid is on youtube somewhere, if you ever find out the name of the song that the skater who gets up in the middle of the night uses, let me know.

Per the description in the YouTube vid that Brewer so kindly posted - the song is Kristin Hersh - Your Ghost. Absolutely beautiful.

Did I just witness an old forum meme naturally occur with earnest?

The Bristol premiere for Alfresco was brilliant. I remember a lot of cheers at Wainwrightā€™s loooooooong 5.0!
