The third Mike Vallely / By The Sword show went down this past Saturday night at the Slidebar in Fullerton, CA. Upon arrival, the bar and restaurant portion of the club were already raging full on so I knew it was going to be a rowdy show. After loading in the gear and getting settled in, we split for some grub. When we returned, the venue was packed and Rick Thorne’s band, Good Guys In Black were about to play and out of nowhere Weeman got caught in a mosh and set off the pit. After Good Guys in Black, Mike Vallely / By The Sword took the stage. The banner was raised, cameras were in position and the band kicked the bro mecca bar’s ass with their inspired Black Flag tribute set. They added in a few more tunes including Agent Orange’s “Bloodstains”, Minor Threat’s “Filler” and “We Are 138″ by The Misfits which had guest vocal duties from bass player Colin’s girlfriend, Christine. Even a Revolution Mother song was popped in for good measure. See the full set list below and enjoy these awesome Mark Nisbet photos. Next stop… Long Beach.

A hundred years from now, Mike Vallely (also known as Mike V) will be viewed as one of skateboarding's pioneers. He'll be remembered as a burly, glue-footed, hella-pop artist. An ATV ruler, a poet, and a fighter's fighter. An iconoclast among icons.
