You just recently premiered your – in what I call – a blading vid game changer, ‘The City Never Sleeps’. It was held at Angelika Theater in Dallas. How pleased were you with the turnout and the overall reaction of the film after it came to a banging close?

Haha, I don’t know about game changer, but that night was awesome! We pretty much packed out the 300 person theater. I remember one of the pivotal moments in my blading life was at the ASR Trade Show the night before the San Diego IMYTA in 2001. I walked into Beau Cottington’s ‘UNCLONED’ premiere and I couldn’t believe the atmosphere in there! If anything in my life really pushed me to make blading videos, it was that moment right there. When I premiered my video, to hear the crowd and feel the energy in there, I forgot about all the trials and tribulations that I myself, and all the guys in the video went through during the two year journey to make the film. We went through a lot of really tough times to get it done. And when it was complete and we were watching on the big screen, I don’t think one person involved had any hint of regret.
