Separated at birth

Separated at birth

Separated at birth: This photo of my old friend Jay taken circa ’85 in suburban Illinois, and this photo of Mike Blake at the North Vancouver Canadian Nationals in 1980. No, not the skaters or the action by any means, but the graffiti for sure. It even takes the hatred a little longer to filter out to the Midwest. Or at least it did before the Interwebs™! [Photo: Right - Calstreets]

    Late 70′s, Chicago, Disco Sucks, ala Steve Dahl was the mantra.
