Although Tony Hawk was hugely important within the skateboard world, at that point skateboarding was still a relatively small, closed world. So, for example, on a Powell tour the minibus would be under siege at a skateboard park to the extent that the Police would turn up and tell them to move on because they were causing too much of a fuss. But they only had to drive down the road and they would be just a bunch of 'kids with skateboards' themselves. It was a much, much smaller world and the barriers of large-scale celebrity did not exist. The interview itself was done by telephone, I think, though I had visited Hawk's house earlier just as Fish was finishing work on the bowl. Those were very different days.
