Burnside Birthday Party "21 years fool!!"

Well another year has come and gone. This was another great celebration that went off and was enjoyed by all who attended (except for a few that didn't that were causing some trouble but was quickly dealt with by the locals) Wow 21 years!! Much respect is given to the homies who made this celebration possible and all the positive vibes to keep such a neat spot going for so long! Burnside, the longest running D.I.Y. spot to date with many, many more years to come!!! Here are a few photos of the friends having some fun! And as always, your DONATIONS are greatly appreciated!!!!

FREESTYLE FELLOWSHIP

If you claim to be a Hip Hop Junkie and have never heard of the Freestyle Fellowship I would seriously recommend that you re-evaluate your love for the music. That being said, Freestyle Fellowship is arguably one of Hip Hop's BEST underground groups from the west coast, LA, CA. Freestyle Fellowship (FF) consists of 5 members; Aceyalone, Myka Nyne, Self Jupiter, PEACE, and DJ Kiilu all with an impressive rap sheet of Hip Hop accomplishments. The groups first album release, "To whom it May Concern", around 1991 got them recognized through underground hip hop mix tape trading community. (I actually got a hold of one of these in early 1992 from a friend out of the trunk of his car in a Tower Records parking lot). Later, sometime in 1993, FF's second release, "Innercity Griots" was released on 4th and B'Way records. This was the album that really put them and the Project Blowed up on the hip hop map. An instant CLASSIC, still popular today. As time passed and Hip Hop continued to grow and mature so did the 5 members of FF. Each embarked on personal musical missions of solo careers producing many more influential albums each important to the growth and history of Hip Hop. Later in 2001 FF put together their third album, "Temptations". Another good album by the group showing that they can hang with the changing times and lyrical flows. More solo projects by each member brings us up to date, 2011 with their forth FF album release, "The Promise" and a West Coast Tour bringing them up to the North West (Portland, Oregon and Seattle, Washington) where I was able to catch their INCREDIBLE set at Seattle's Show Box venue. Playing most of their classics and stuff from their newest album. Going strong for 20 years, FF still packs a powerful and influential punch for the underground Hip Hop scene. As stated nearly 20 years ago in the final track of their first album "To Whom It May Concern" that they will "never fall the fuck off.....we promise" still holds true by todays standards and I think that these fellas are still "Way ahead of the Hip Hop times" even the material that is 20 years old! Now thats Real Hip Hop!

Burnside 21 years facelift

This year is Portland's BURNSIDE skatepark's 21st bday!!! And as gift to her a few of the homies got together to give the park a small facelift in the form of a new 1/4 up the wall that doubles as a hip to blast out of opening up the lines to get some new shred on. This was all made possible by the hard work of the locals with the money YOU have donated. Burnside is forever growing and growing, so if you'd like to be a part of the good vibes, please DONATE and come get your shred on!!

Kicking out the Jams!

Still printing SAUCE Ts and other neat stuff to support our skateboard habbits and roadtrips! Stop by the store: SAUCE Store

Um, yeah, 'cause we're fuck'n broke

Well, it's finally hit home, the SHITTY economy is making it hard to generate enough money to keep putting out FREE printed issues of SAUCE skateboard zine. My wages and hours have been drastically cut at the printshop forcing me to "Reinvest" my life to learn a new trade that I can once again make the BIG Bucks so I can dump it all into the mag. This is not a statement implying that we are done making "Printed Issues" but rather an update on our status since a lot of you are itching for a new issue (as well as myself). I'm toying with a couple new SAUCE printing ideas such as a "Semi Annual SAUCE skateboard book" or the possibly reverting back to BLACK and WHITE (though thats a hard one to deal with getting away from full color print and all) So for now, I'm working with new design / layout ideas for this SAUCE Blogspot aka the "SAUCE skateboard On-Line zine" making this a nice place to publish our skate news, material, and photographs about whats going on in the world of Shred! Just a temporary fix or substitute for the printed version. The good thing is that we can now have the WHOLE world reading and shredding with us in cyber space. So please put us in your BOOKMARKS and stop by regularly to check in and we are also keeping the SAUCE Store going to help generate money for future printed material as well as to help with gas for trips, money for crete, and keeping our camera equipment and computers up to date and in good working order so we may provide you with some "Daily Shred" to go along with your morning coffee.

I'm not thrilled at all about not having a new printed issue (at the present time) but at least we can still keep moving forward with the SAUCE project via cyber space until enough loot is earned to print the next issue or book. At any rate, please comment with any ideas, concerns, and places that may want to cut us a serious deal on printing. Now get out there and SHRED!

SAUCE Por Vida!!!!

No SNATCH for you

Well, CALTRANS is at it again doing what they do best, trying to stop the progression of skateboarding. Damn, I feel for you homies down in Cali. CALTRANS has put a stop to yet another D.I.Y. spot, SNATCH in San Diego! Skaters hunt and seek out the worst possible spots to build things to skate. I mean, turning dumps, drug infested wastelands, and just fucked up unused areas that dont apeal to anyone but a skater, into a clean, organized, and FUN places to ride. That's not such a bad thing, Is it? Well never the less, Skaters vs. The World! Don't worry, you can't stop us! There will be more........Stay tuned..........
