Action Now v7 n2 September 1980

The second issue of Action Now, confusingly labeled as volume 7, Number 2. 999 and Mike Hirsch on the cover. 84 pages. Som good skateboard coverage of the Oasis G&S Cup, but you know skim boarding , trails biking, rollerskating and grass skiing. You can’t say they weren’t trying to broaden the appeal... A feature on the band 999 and a guide to New York clubs that included shot of the Suburban Lawns, Sting/Police, Steve Diggle, the Rockats, etc. People on the Go? How about skateboarder Gene Tocci?
