check out rolling stone mag. new issue
 
ok we have a little bit in new stones mag..
here is the deal, it was to be a 3-4 page article at first.
the writer spent 3 weeks gathering info and buying up photos.

when the rolling stones mag. editors got a hold of the original article they down sized it..
why, well here is my theory.

there afraid..
they didnt want to dedicate that much space to something they are not sure about.;
the problem is that when it comes to making this sport grow, the sponsors and magazines inorder to cover more or invest more they have to know that there is a popular demand for it.
this main street market is where it needs to go.
we know that the sport is huge in our stunt riding world, we just need to get it out to the average person.

magazines like rolling stones is a great way to get there...

so go pick up the mag., then in a good way email rolling stones and tell them you want more, no, that you need more info on stunt riding....want to see more shit about the sport and such...

if they dont get a reaction from the little article, then they will not have a reason to do another one...

also check out what jeff caraboolad has to say about stunt riding in rolling stones...

No joke--that guy called me a few weeks ago and we spent at least an hour on the phone. He was asking me everything stunting--not just the Starboyz, but stunting in general, competitions in particular, the XSBA, who else was hot in stunting, etc., etc., etc. They've got plenty of info for another story.

I'm pretty sure it was the last issue, with Jimi Hendrix on the cover, not the current Brittney ish.

Anyone know which issue this is in for sure. Someone let us know but I'm gonna hunt it down after work...

:cheers

starboyscott 09-18-2003 10:13 PM

they have tons of shit to do a huge story, thats the problem, unless they get a lot of interest, they will not run another one...
half the issue was to be dedicated to motorcycles in general...
youll see what really happened....


its the issue with jimmy hendrix on the cover, issue 931, look for kevin he looks like a child molester, my hair needs watered, and they changed my name to jeff.
metz has a nice write up in it also...
