Two benefits at opposite ends of the country this Saturday. In Portland there is a benefit bowl contest fro Taylor Appelo who was one of the two (Hey Clay!) skaters in PDX who were jumped by four jocks at a MAX station in Portland. Taylor’s got a broken jaw, missing teeth and a mountain of medical bills. The contest entry fee and the spectator fees all go to the medical bills, plus there’s a pirate’s chest of booty being raffled as part of your entry fee. This is a daytime event. Registration at 3pm, contest at 4pm. Details at the Department.
Meanwhile, in Philadelphia, the private facility known as the Warehouse is having a fundraising bash to cover the costs of operation. Skate Rock legends McRad will be playing with a couple other bands and a DJ too, plus food, beer, etc…. Flyers and bonus vid of the Warehouse after the jump.

I just read that article on Taylor Appelo-typical of the cops. The Appelo family lives around the corner of the my new house apparently…I didnt know his brother is pro.. fuck,i had a point…
yeah, it was that i recall advising some mouthy BMX’r here,that i personally, bring my glock to Burnside
& sketchy locations. only this is habit from skating lockwood,hawthorn & echo park all my life. and instead of drunk peckerwoods it was bangers and freaks in my experience.
man fuck that. beating up teenagers & shit…wish it had been me, wuld’a shot em in jaw, then let PPD clean up the mess.
Hope the families get some revenge/justice. I’ll be at DOS.
