I have a birthday…every year I have one. This one was different. RickyDanny has been on The Morning Madhouse for almost 2.5 years now and we figured lets blow it up. The week was right, we had Brooke Hogan in town the club was MOTIV and is the place to be in Santa Cruz.  It started out with the VIP invite only from KDON, limited guest list for RickyDanny and MOTIV, all in all we invited 220 females with 4o males…can you say talent? Sam Diggedy, White Menace, Boy Toy Bobby, Showbiz and our crew rolled up to downtown Santa Cruz at the same time Brooke Hogan showed up. The VIP line was down the street and people were looking good and ready to party.  Once inside the music was jumping and people were already gettin tipsy…did I mention it was only 10pm.  Juan Burgundy was throwing heat on the turn tables as the ratio of girls to guys was the best I had ever seen in Santa Cruz. Straight up White Menace hit me the next morning after sleeping on Sam Diggedy’s bathroom floor “Blood, Santa Cruz blows San Francisco out of the water for talent, hands down the most hot chicks I have ever seen in a club at one time”…yep…that’s how we do it. Brooke was cool as hell, even with all the haters, MOTIV was packed till closing and not one problem. KDON, RickyDanny and SC know how to throw a party, next time we mention it….you might want to make sure you are there…here are some pics.

Santa Cruz Roller Girls

April 17th, 2008 | Posted by dk in Action Sports | KDON - (0 Comments)

I have the wonderful opportunity to be involved and sponsor our local Roller Girl team, the Santa Cruz Roller Girls. I must say when we first started talking with them, I didn’t think it would really get this big. It was July or August of 2007 and The Morning Madhouse on KDON was doing an interview with the SCRG about their future games and how to be a part of the team etc. when I called in to the studio to give them a hard time. The result of that call ended up with Santa Cruz Skate Shop and The Morning Madhouse scrimmaging against the Santa Cruz Roller Girls in front of 1400 people. Now, mind you none of us had ever really been on roller skates in a while (especially Showbiz), however we did have a trick up our sleeve with our ringer Evenflow Ron. After one period and multiple tailbone slams, the SCRG team beat us by one measly point.

Since then we have joined forces with them, promoting every bout (did I mention they have sold out the last two bouts!!!) on The Morning Madhouse and becoming the Santa Cruz Roller Girl outlet at Santa Cruz Skate Shop. So it was no surprise when Sam Diggs and I made our way over to the Santa Cruz Civic to watch our team bout the Angry Beavers of Redding to see another line wrapping completely around the block…the people of Santa Cruz had more than embraced this new production called The Santa Cruz Roller Girls. My boy Lex Vandenberg of Survivor fame was one of the phenomenal announcers and after losing my voice again, we watched our girls completely trounce the Angry Beavers and send them packing with a whopping 121-22 win Saturday night. If you have Roller Girls in your area, get out there to support them, buy their merchandise and take the family out for some good ole American fun. Hey Mark Cuban, get on this now before Vince McMahon or Dana White does.
