Description

Rick Stanziale grew up in Athens, Georgia during the 1980s, during which he was an avid skateboarder. Stanziale later joined his first band, The Problem Children during the late 1980s. James Greer was also involved in the skating scene and punk rock during the 1980s despite coming from a very religious household. Joe Elridge grew up skating in Athens, Georgia, though a serious skateboarding accident at the age of 16 inspired him to become more involved in the Athens punk rock scene as a bass player. In this interview, Stanziale, Greer, and Elridge talk about Athens’ skate parks, playing around Athens, and the cultural influences of skating.
