I was proud to help out for the 4th straight year by donating goods and $ donation to the Standup for Skateparks charity event in Beverly Hills at billionaire Ron Burkle’s green acres estate. I know, you are all asking – who the hell is Ron Burkle? If you ever shopped at Ralph’s food stores, then there’s one connection. How about owning a piece of the Pittsburgh Penguins or owning 20% of Barnes and Noble; there’s more! Anyhow, lucky for Tony Hawk that Ron provides his humble abode to let Tony invite 850 guests at a price of $400 donation each to mingle with celebrities (if you are lucky or brave) like actor Mark Wahlberg or mega producer Jon Favreau or UFC champion Chuck Lidell or rockstar Perry Farrel of Janes Addiction, watch some live music by the Black Keys (yet, literally 20 feet in front of you on a tiny little stage), watch some amazing skating on the vert ramp (amazing that they are allowed to bring the massive ramp and tear up Ron’s yard) with Shaun White, Tony Hawk, Mitchie Brusco, Bucky Lasek, as well as bmx freestyle by Matt Hoffman, get a ton of free shit from a variety of vendors (t-mobile, art of board, dub, nixon, birdhouse, pinks, wahoo’s, best buy, etc.), chat with pro skaters like Mike Vallely, Jamie Thomas, Kevin Stab, etc., and a ton more…. The live auctions this year were off the hook with autographed guitars by Pearl Jam, Taylor Swift, Rancid, Janes Addiction and the coolest one that I bid on at $1275 (beating out Ron Burkle) and won = the 1950′s Fender Telecaster toured with and autographed by all members of Green Day. Other auction items included a tricked out Ford Explorer that went for over $40k, a customized triumph motorcycle by Roland Sands that went for $30k, a ton of autographed pro skateboards (paul rodriguez, nyjay houston, ryan scheckler and shaun white) completely framed by sk8ology, as well as the opportunity to get your own pro skateboard made by Tony Hawk’s team for $250. Our BambooSK8 skate board autographed by the band CHERRI BOMB on Hollywood Records went for $70 the last bid we saw, but hopefully more. Needless to say, despite the down economy, things were looking up for charity this year as people reached deep into their pockets. We can all feel good about helping to get skateparks built in low income, at-risk neighborhoods throughout this great country of ours. The foundation has helped 405 parks get build already in 49 states; Connecticut is the only one remaining. http://standupforskateparks.org/

Congrats to Cherri Bomb and special thanks to Billy Corgan!! I remember back in the early 90′s in E. Lansing, Michigan when the Smashing Pumpkins played with Pearl Jam and Red Hot Chilli Peppers – can you guess which band stole the show?
Billy Corgan tweeted this morning that the Smashing Pumpkins will be joined on tour by Cherri Bomb, an all-girl teenage rock band from Los Angeles.
What an awesome kick off of the Sunset Strip Music Festival… 13 year old rockers Cherri Bomb tearing up the Roxy with their own original songs and a few covers of the Foo Fighters, Doxy and Ana Lovelis songs. Rocks next generation opened up for Filter (hey man nice shot….) but earlier in the night got to walk the red carpet at the House of Blues for the tribute to Slash, who was recognized for his 20+ years on the strip made famous during the time with Guns and Roses. The Smashing Pumpkins will headline this weekends festival.
I can’t say enough positive things about these girls and I’m truly happy to help them with their career. They have a solid team behind them, a little funding for the 4 billboards in Hollywood and tons of music industry folks asking a lot of questions. Most importantly though – they have a work ethic that is unmatched and a desire to truly craft brilliant songs that will hopefully change a generation. It’s nice to see young girls making a dent in music and not sitting around playing guitar hero or rock band but actually playing their instruments and inspiring others to do the same. Schecter guitars are a new sponsor!!

On Wednesday, their video “spin” had 5372 views. We at Out Of Step Entertainment thought, hmmm…. let us see if we can help grow the exposure so we pumped it through our social media channels of twitter, facebook, stumbleupon hookit and many more. Within 2 hours, it was up to 12,000 and by the end of the day near 20,000. 24 hours later- 59,000 views and growing. Now, it’s never just one person who can take credit for success like this, especially as these young girls have 4 billboards in Hollywood right now, as well as the mere fact that they are simply talented and that speaks for itself. Do you think most bands would invest like that? Only those who are serious would… which is the difference in why these young girls are being highly sought after by lawyers, major labels, etc. We are excited to assist and will keep the strategy growing with their parents/managers to bring about rocks new generation.
If you believe in the power of music and that music can change the world, then I ask each of you to truly pass this video onto others. There is simply no other band like these young girls – especially ones that aren’t buying into the whole DISNEY model of success or Justin Bieber-styled success. Okay, we like his hair!!
