Great Songs to Skate to....

Okay so I was talking to a friend about. Well actually about the Jonas Brothers. Yeah I listen to the JoBros. No, I'm not 8. And of course you can't get the hype if you've never even heard their music. DUH!!!
Here are 2 of my favourites that I think would be awesome showcases to skate to....


What a great movie - if you haven't seen it go rent it or something.


As far as i can tell the Jonas Brothers seem to be really great kids. And children are always going to have idols. People in the spotlight that they look up to. Our kids could do a lot worse than Kevin, Nick and Joe. That's all I'll say...

On another note a few years ago Lexie skated to Cinderella. Which is really ironic because even at that age we talked about her touring in terms of Cinderella. Lexie has dedicated the last 5+ years to figure skating. We'd talk about how when she grows up she could be Cinderella and travel all over the world with DoI. Not every skater can be Cinderella but you don't have to be the star of the show to be a professional skater. Somebody has to be the ugly step-sister or play all the other girls at the ball wanting to try on the glass slipper (skate). Being able to get paid to do something that you love and getting to see the world would be an amazing experience for anyone. How many careers can you tour with. Its something that I've always wanted for her. She has to really want it for herself. Not just say she wants it. At 8, its impossible to map out your whole life of what you want. Most of us don't even know what we want to be even after we are all grown up. Lexie's is all mapped out. She wants to tour (skating - DoI), tour (rock star), go to art school and become a fashion designer. Oh and be a famous actress. Famous enough to star as herself. We call this plan of hers "growing up to be like Richie Rich."
So I hope you like this one too...

and a few comments... i don't really think they sing that good. But a lot people obviously do like them for something other than what they look like or their name. So whatever - to each their own. I don't get why people have to slam them and be so vulgar on youtube. They are a band that a lot of little kids like. And I don't like my 8 year old reading that stuff. I think people are jealous because they are having fun and making a lot of money doing it.
