THE RISE AND THE FALL / ISSUE 1
April 2004
_____________________
I always wanted to do a fanzine, so this was essentially the trial issue to kind of “test the waters,” as they say. The cover was taken from a stock photography book, how lame. This issue opens up with “The Story of The Channel Street Project,” a do-it-yourself San Pedro skateboard park built by skaters, for skaters, and without permission, a-la the infamous Burnside skatepark in Portland, Oregon. The story is executed by the San Pedro Skatepark Association’s own Andy “El Beardo” Harris. Next, Halbadal tracks down the various members of San Pedro band Toys That Kill, then either forgets the recorder or forgets to turn it on, so he ends up winging it by memory. Typical Hal maneuver. A classic story on the taco truck wars going down in San Pedro titled “Buy Any Beans Necessary” written by taco connoisseur, Vinnie Vegas. The run down on the anti-melody band from L.A. who call themselves 400 Blows. Killer Dreamer is interrogated once again by Vinnie Vegas at the once infamous 673 4th Street pad. A cool story titled “D. Boon in the Present Tense” written by Chris King and swiped from some other rag. A Martin Tamburovich memorial page written by Mike Watt. A reprinted News Pilot story on our late friend Patrick Wilder. A centerfold (frontside boneless) of Kobe Newall. A Scott Aicher comic. Misc. stencil art. Vinnie Vegas’ dos & don’ts and a couple of reviews.
