GET MENTAL Friday Night @ SKY 60 BIRTHDAY EDITION

Ok friends of COVERT/BETA. We don't always promote our party's on the blog. (Im not sure why we don't) But this one we should all try to make. Its Tommy MOT's B-day bash at SKY 60. Its a 21 and up affair. Its going to the JUMP OFF this Friday. MOT will be 40....DAMN! 40! That greasy haired Dude has been drinking Jager, playing records, slinging skateboards and street-wear since some of you were born! He has put out 6 or 7 records, been signed to a multi album record deal (which abruptly feel through a year later when the label was sold) and went on tour with MOTLEY CRUE. (sounds like a where are they now episode on VH1) So come show some love for the man behind COVERT and BETA and have a drink or two. The music will be banging and the vibe will be tight. DJs on tap will be the GET MENTAL residents MOT and ANDREW SPEAR along side LT. SMASH and JFM.

Sky 60 is located between Tabu and The Social. There is a doorway that leads upstairs. Yes SKy 60 is a roof top bar.

Password for free admission is " 40 is the new FUCK YOU! "

p.s did we mention he is a pretentious bastard?

Contest this weekend at MESH re-post

Some of you might know I was a dj on the first couple of AST DEW TOURS. While I was there I convinced the staff to let me have a contest on the skateboard park course at AMWAY arena. So with a little help from our friends at MESH we started the LOCALS ONLY contest. Here is how it works. There is a Qualifier at MESH. The top finalists in that contest get to skate in the finals at the DEW TOUR alongside a representative from all the local skate shops. That way each shop in town has a finalist and gets represented. It is a super fun contest and its all for skateboarding in central florida. We have a ton of amazing talent here.
So below are the flyers to explain everything. One more thing the finals will be held when the gates are open at the AST DEW TOUR. That means the stands will be packed with a ton of fans cheering on all the skaters. FUCK HATE LETS SKATE!

DEERMAN DARK WOODS

How fun is it to skate Jersey barriers? Well I guess when your soul is possessed by you know who it doesn't matter. You just do what your told. I heard these guys have a limited shoe coming out from Emerica. Hmm Maybe they really did sell there soul to the DEVIL. Don't say Deer Man Dark Woods three times. Unless you want to join the BARRIER KULT. If I were you I would just settle for this. Now listen to your parents eat your veggies and say your prayers. Enjoy!
