Tony Hawk sings on stage with Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater cover band

I had no idea there was a cover band that specialized in it Tony Hawk’s professional skater audio tracks. Today I’m happy enough to know that such a thing exists, but even happier to know that they blew up a show over the weekend because the man himself was there and joined them on stage for a few tracks.

The 900—Named for a skating move that is very rarely possible, both in game and in real life—are a band from the UK who call themselves the country’s “first and only Tony Hawk Pro Skater cover band”. What does she mean only play songs Tony Hawk’s professional skater audio tracks.

That’s a lot of material to cover! And while they don’t play the full spectrum of music genres available in the series, as a band they only seem to cover rock/metal/punk stuff and I can’t find any videos of them playing any of the series. rap tracks—What’s left is a fantastic sample of one of the most important and popular collections of video game music any times. If the song contains guitars and was on one THPS Soundtrack, whether it was Rage Against the Machine, CKY, Refused or Fu Manchu, they will play it.

Anyway, The 900 played a show in Haggerston, London over the weekend and after banging out a few tracks, they were joined on stage by… well, Tony Hawk himself. which he seems to be doing increasingly in his post-pro skating career is happy Settling into a Bill Murray-like lifestyle.

This is the first footage to be shared of the event, which blew up on Twitter over the weekend:

However, the band themselves have shot some more professional footage and have also started sharing it:

It’s impossible not to love everything about it, from the faces of the band to the fact that Hawk absolutely nails it, like he’s spent his life dreaming of the chance to get on stage and belt out a few songs like this.

If you want to see more stuff from the band they have a whole set on YouTube but it’s view only on youtube So you have to go there to check it out.
