Old school attitude, new school performance. This is no novelty deck. Custom shape, wheelbase, and concave offer unparalleled control in the streets and beyond. Easy to ollie/nollie either the kick nose or kick tail. Tired of those wobbly longboards? The wider front foot area allows you to run your trucks tight and still turn easily, or run them loose for ungodly maneuverability. 7 ply maple made in U.S.A. construction withstands whatever evil you choose to inflict on it..
" Mr. Jay's ripping guitars and expressive singing drives this band on dark missions.."
Top Indie Producer Bart Thurber
Coming from a long line of musicians and stock car drivers, Skyler was constantly punished as a child for refusing to learn piano from his wicked great Aunt, who was a classical concert pianist.
At age 12 he ‘rebelled’ and picked up an electric guitar. Jay quickly gained notoriety in the central Jersey rock, punk, and metal scenes for his aggressive, cutting edge lead style which fused the over the top psychedelia of Hendrix with the velocity and energy of modern punk and metal.
A self-professed Misfits fanatic, Jay’s primary vocal influence is Glenn Danzig, although he is also a huge fan of other dark low-voiced singers such as Jim Morrison, Elvis, Nick Cave, and Johnny Cash.
A fixture on the San Francisco rock and nightclub scene, Skyler is usually referred to by his nickname “Rock Star Jay” and is notorious for skateboarding the hills of San Francisco at night in faux fur coats and cowboy hats, and dating the most insanely beautiful, (and just outright insane) women in the city.
Cameron Landers
Cameron "Shaft" Landers joined RadioStar SF in 2001, replacing Brian McCarthy who had left due to health problems.
Cameron was an instant hit with audiences, replacing McCarthy's technical metal style with a rhythmically communicative style reminiscent of the great British drum masters Ginger Baker, Keith Moon, Mitch Mitchell and John Bonham.
Cameron joined RadioStar SF after being fired from the tribal goth band "Fontaine's Muse" for playing too heavy.
Jay Skyler after hearing the reason for his firing, invited him to audition and hired him after the very first session.
Skarkrow
Skarkrow was brought on by Jay Skyler to succeed a long line of half-dead bass players in late 2006. His low-end growl and glam-trash antics lend a further level to the growing legend of Radiostar SF, and is now coordinating with the rest of the band to bring some new material to be released soon.

"RadioStar SF This is rock, you either like it or you don't. You're either with us or against us. I'll give you a couple minutes to figure out who's quote that is. But this is not politics and this isn't the sh!t your mommy listened to..."
Helios Creed Legendary guitarist of Chrome.
Fusing American style rock and raw psychedelic fury with influences as dark and diverse as metal, delta blues, death rock, The Misfits, Hendrix, the Doors, the Velvet Underground, Bob Dylan, Elvis, and Johnny Cash, RadioStar SF is rapidly emerging from the San Francisco rock underground.
Known for their explosive live performances, powerful songwriting, and the dark cutting-edge Hendrix-inspired guitar work of lead vocalist and guitarist Jay Skyler, they are the first of a shameless new breed of 21st century Rock Stars.
Explains Skyler:
" Our goal has always been to produce rock music that combines the pick it up and play the hell out of it spirit of 60's acid rock with the intensity and defiance of modern punk and metal."

Cool raw sound. And that touch of punk, well, it made go back in time, when I was just a teenager. Yeah, back then, punk music was kicking ass. We all talked about it in high school. Man, I didn’t hear that sound – the one you provide – on decades. You’ve got the feeling all right.
Time flew by, my friends. I still remember when I had long hair (now it seems it also flew by, you know?). The few I have left turned grey, or white, or... well one of these colours which remind me I’m not young anymore. But... I try to keep my spirit up, although it’s a very hard thing to do in this Society we live in.
Stopping by to say that a good friend of mine (Ringmaster in my top friends) is going to plaster your banner onto his (many and varied) virtual sites. Such a great guy!!
Hope each of you are well. Enjoy your weekend! :-)
