Sunday Service – The Wisdom Manchester Promo (circa 2001).

Ryan — Sun, 17 Mar 2013 08:00:52 +0000

“Keith Miller hops a shiny human steadying utensil.”
Manchester “10 X10″, June 1999.

I’m pretty sure this was eventually turned into ‘Leisure’, but Stu Bentley’s long lost promo for Wisdom Skateshop in Manchester showed a great deal of promise for the video that technically never was.

Featuring Keith Millar, Garry Woodward, James Ewens, Dan Rees, Eddie Belvedere and more, there were only 100 VHS copies of the promo made, which were given away for free to shop regulars and visitors to the long defunct stores in Manchester, Leeds and Huddersfield.

Enjoy…

Sunday Service: Colin Kennedy – Blueprint “WFTW” (2000)

Ryan — Sun, 19 Aug 2012 07:00:51 +0000

You lack the minerals and vitamins, irons and the niacin
F*ck who that I offend, rappers sit back I’m ’bout to begin
’bout foul talk you sqwak, never even walked the walk
More less destined to get tested, never been arrested
My album will manifest many things that I saw did or heard about
or told first hand, never word of mouth
What’s in the future for the fusion in the changer?
Rappers are in danger who will use wits to be a remainder
When the missile is aimed, to blow you out of the frame
Some will keep their limbs and, some will be maimed
The same suckers with the gab about, killer instincts
but turned b*tch and knowin’ damn well they lack
In this division the connoisseur, crackin’ your head with a 4 by 4
Realize sucka, I be the comin’ like Noah
Always sendin’ you down, perpetratin’ facadin’ what you consider
a image, to me this is, just a scrimmage
I’m feel I’m stone, not cause I bop or wear my cap cocked
The more emotion I put into it, the harder I rock
Those who pose lyrical but really ain’t true I feel…

…”Their time’s limited, hard rocks too”

Sunday Service: Scott Palmer – Blueprint “Waiting For The World” (2000)

Ryan — Sun, 16 Oct 2011 09:00:44 +0000

We’ve never needed a reason to appreciate the skateboarding of one Mr Scott Palmer, so why not spend a few minutes of your Sunday morning marveling at the brilliance of his still ridiculous section from Blueprint’s first proper standalone production “Waiting For The World”?

Produced by Dan Magee, this video single handedly raised the bar for both UK skateboarding, and UK skate videos, something which was evidently clear to all by the time Scott’s opening section was finished.

Anyway, give it a watch by clicking the play button below, then wax lyric about Scott and check out a load of other videos and photos on the “Scott Palmer Is Boss!” Facebook Page.

See you next Sunday!
