Cue the string quartet – Tony Hawk is going down memory lane. Actually, scratch that. Hawk isn't the melodramatic type. But he does have a few choice memories from the past six years of Huckjams.
“The tour keeps evolving, but definitely there are highlights for me,” said Hawk. “One highlight was our very first show, our sort of test show in Vegas in '02. We had Shawn White come out at the last minute as our special guest rookie. And you know how far he's come since then, so that was pretty cool.”
And here's another from the Hawk archive: “One of my favorite memories was from our first tour year in '03, we had Devo play at our San Diego show. Devo is one of my favorite bands of all time, and I'd never seen them live before. And they're playing our tour. It was like Spicoli throwing the birthday party for himself with Van Halen.”
