    Professional skateboarder Tony Hawk unveils music that has personal meaning to him – from his days at the skate park and as a high school outcast to grueling exhibitions tours and the soundtrack for his first video game. He tells KCRW DJ Jason Bentley about artists he keeps on heavy rotation AND the perfect song for a skateboard video. Tony’s 5th Annual Stand Up For Skate Parks charity event is November 9, 2008. The Tony Hawk Foundation raises money to build skate parks in low income areas.
