I loved that

I no longer remember what we talked about the handful of times I was able to talk with Mike, I'm sure I asked him typical fanboy type questions, but sitting back watching him answer them was always a trip. He was always very animated, talking a lot with his hands and using the Watt slang. So very cool and besides the music, it's what I miss most about going to Banyan shows because Mike, Perk, Nels and Willie were always friendly with their time and put up with me asking questions that I'm sure they have each heard hundreds, if not thousands of times already.

Thanks for posting this :thumb:

If anyone is interested he mentions this skate video, which I used to own so many years ago. I remember the Natas Kaupas bit blew my mind back then, because he was so awesome.



Funny thing about Natas. I had this shirt with his skateboard design on it

I wore it to a church youth group once and they sent me home because they thought his name was Satan spelled backwards :lolol:
