With the HARO UK tour/Bike Show and Paul's Paultique 10 years anniversay/mini FAT-JAM going on last weekend neither one of us could make it to the Joe Kid on a Stingray premiere in Hollywood. We're actually bummed to have missed this event and are looking forward to see the Bang Pictures movie on the history of BMX.
Dimitri Coste from France was fortunate enough to make it to Hollywood for the premiere and sent us some snapshots. Thanks for that Dimitri.
Hello Bart,
We were at the premiere of the movie. It was great. the sound was a little bit too loud, but we had a really good afternoon.
Lots of guys were there like Jeff Utterback, Bob Haro, Eddie Fiola, Thom Lund, John Palfreyman, Stu Thomsen, Perry Kramer, Maurice Meyer, Dennis McCoy, Dave Voelker ....
In the pictures we also noticed the presence of Bob Hadley, Guy-B, McGoo, Sully, Losey, Jesse James, John Ker (still getting his camera in there for BMX Plus!), Scot Breithaupt and we know of the presence of Brian Blyther, Todd Anderson, Dave Nourie, Ron Wilkerson, Woody Itson, Eddie Roman, Hugo Gonzales, Oscar Gonzales and Tim Rogers.
Sounds like a legendary BMX happening for sure.
