Once-A-Month Punk

Once-A-Month Punk

Skateboarding---Not a crime at the Waikiki Sandbox!

House of Flys Fights for the Right to Skate in Waikiki

 

banner

 

For as long as can be remembered, skateboarding has been a crime in Waikiki. As the international birthplace of surfing, Hawaii’s influence has made riding boards commonplace throughout the world. Surfing paved the way for skateboarding. Today, skateboarding is a recreation, sport, and a lifestyle, as well as an economical and pollution free form of transportation, yet it is illegal to ride in Waikiki.

 

Through a series of shows every third Saturday at the Waikiki Sandbox called Once-A-Month PUNK, House of Flys is working to raise awareness for this issue. They are striving to get 10,000 signatures on a petition to make skateboarding legal once again in Waikiki. They will also be interviewing tourists on video about their opinions on the matter to present to city officials. Finally, House of Flys will be pushing to build a skate park in Kapiolani Park

Since the beginning of skateboarding, punk rock music has been the soundtrack for this lifestyle. And it has been the punk rockers themselves that have elevated skateboarding to this next level. It is now time for both to have their day. It is the goal of Once-A- Month PUNK to decriminalize skateboarding in Waikiki and jam some punk rock down your throat. House of Flys and Stunt Dog Productions have come together at the Waikiki Sandbox to create a space to see the latest skate videos and hear Hawaii’s best live punk bands. At the Waikiki Sandbox skateboarding is not a crime, but not showing up is.

Busekrus the Band

Busekrus the Band

Büsekrüs is a local rock band that musically dances on the lines of modern Pop-Punk, Emo and Alternative. (Think All Time Low, Plain White Tees , Cartel). Büsekrüs is made up of three pieces: brothers Marcus Busekrus  (Lead vocals/guitar) and LJ Busekrus (backup vocals/bass) as well as long-time friend Mike Jones (drums). Hailing from Kailua, these boys have been playing music together off and on since 1998, but only formed their current project in 2006. They love writing and performing music and plan to make their part time passion into their full time careers in the very near future.

With one Hawaii Music Award winning album under their belts and another album in the works right now (due out in Sept, 2009) as well as one US West Coast Tour under their belts and another on the way (planned for Sept, 2009), these boys are progressing with no lack of haste or fervor .

Their goals are twofold – to chase their dream of being professional musicans persistently until they reach it, and to cultivate the local rock scene around them as they do so. “We love the scene here and we want nothing more than to see it grow in leaps and bounds. The attitudes of all the bands here are so supportive. There  is so much talent, so much hard work and so much Aloha here, but there is comparatively negligible support from radio or venues. But this just makes us that much stronger as a whole. Anybody who makes it happen here already has a head start compared to those who make it happen on the mainland. And we would love to see everybody here get their chance to make it happen.”

Check them out on their Myspace page at myspace.com/busekrustheband or e-mail their manager Brady Jones from Half/Jones Productions at busekrus.theband@gmail.com.
