Team young commercial shoot...
In 1983 Flip had to beat them off with a stick!
So My Buddy Joe Gall (head of Team Young) tells me he's making a movie..like a full on big time movie and it has some CRAZY plot. It involves Bike, Girls, Midgets, Fire, Music, and plain old fun. He decideds that he wants to make a trailer for it and sets up a CRAZY party on the roof of some shady ass building in downtown Detroit. Manyy of the Albe's crew was there along with the Team Young croud. It was more fun that you have ever had on a sat night.
I'm too lazy (I really just don't remember much) to write a story abouts the nights details so my pal Joey Greenwald stepped in to help. Below is his take on the night.

p.s. Be sure to click on the photos to see them larger. They are quite fun.
So joe gal is making a movie thats based in 1983,Tonite he wanted to shoot a commercial for it. instead of just shooting a commercial he decided to invite all his freinds and turn it into a huge party,the catch was,you had to dress up like you were in 1983 it was a blast. me and kris (marcum) showed up 2 hours late becuase marcum had to eat desert,its okay we got thier right as things got going. we caught the last song of the band and all i remember them screaming was 1983 1983,thats one year after me and dmc's tour.After the band played things started getting a little looser. tom from myspace was in full effect bouncing through the crowd. at one point im pretty sure flip wall road over him. Flipper was wearing a white suit and size 12 shoes,i think he wears size 8 normal hahaha. So the shoot went on mat sparks flaired the crazy ass 3 ft quarter to complete flat,but he pulled it haha. tom was siked. Josh stier was in the house and still looks like an antilope. he told me stories about him and danny hickerson. Brawler was in full effect wearing a ted nugent shirt,im pretty sure he was with his sister all night. Carmicheal was getting crazy on the trampline bike doing flips and flip x ups,i think gordie cole was even caught doing an x-up whip on it.. Girls were getting nuts on trampolines,flipper was doing double foot plant wall rides and not caring. The 9ft tall gay deer was in the house taking photos as well,expect a few gems from him. Thier was freestyling on the mic from some random guy and tom was getting action with all the ladies. tom got way more action than me. i finally met a real myspace girl...yes kids they are real,my theory of tom just making up 0938420348 random girls and pretending to be them is false.Brawler was still brawling at high velocity. Dane wild was in the house,or i guess on the roof hardcore dancing and moshing his head off. josh stier was still there. some more girls jumped on tramplolines and midgets were kicking the hell out of rollerbladers,finally justice. The night was amazing except a few dumb kids fighting becuase they are tards and some people just being dumb. Joe gall did an amazing job and a special thanks goes to him and c-block. you guys rule happy birthday joe,thanks.
On to other news. a few of the guys are traveling to my house 578 n grant st, wooster, ohio 44691 to have a party tomarrow nite. it should be interesting,everyone is invited,if your lame ill punch you really hard. Monday we will either head to the flow or to athens park depending on weather,if anyones in the area show up. well thats all i can think of thanks agian to joe gall and everyone who helped out.
joey greenwald
a good band playing for about 200 people all dressed in clothes from 1983...GOOD STUFF!
Brawler supports uncle Ted (uncle Flappy is much cooler though)
the shoot was on top of a 5 story building in Detroit.
Dane Wild looks like he was one of the Village People.
Flip forgot it was an 80's party and just wore his regular party clothes
Momma C-Block in the "HEN" house
Half Naked 80's girls, Skulls, and FIRE! Bet you wish you were there.
Girls on Trapolines
Damn lens flair..
Oh Yeah....there was some bike stuff going on too.
Joey met some of his myspace girls....Myspace Tom approved.
I forget her name...i called her Madonna.
Sparks played a big part in the plot of the shoot. It involved him stunting while looking 1983. Flip's old Bully Jersey helped out.
Nick Zeblin is the main photographer around these parts so it's not too often you see a good photo of him.
Think Don Johnson ever did a wallride over Myspace Tom while wearing shoes that were 4 sizes to big?? Flip is probably the only person to EVER do it.
The three people that pulled the whole deal together...Joe Gall, Momma C-Block, and Dinosour Gall.
Like Joey said above...we plan on continuing the weekend with more fun and BMX. Wooster Ohio Sunday and Athens Ohio on Monday. If you are from either of those places and wanna come hang out and ride, gamble or chill in the Albe's bus give me an e-mail at flip@albes.com
