Tickets for “Activision presents Tony Hawk’s Boom Boom HuckJam,” the celebrated arena tour showcasing the talents in action sports and music, go on sale Aug.16 at TicketMaster.
The tour will kick off Oct. 2, 2003, in Vancouver and run for seven weeks across North America.
Hawk’s dream team for this unrivaled production feature HuckJam vets in Skate: Bucky Lasek, Andy Macdonald, Lincoln Ueda and Sergie Ventura.
This year’s high-octane tour will blow spectators away with a new unique set design reminiscent of an actual street and new ramp features.
Music for this year’s Boom Boom HuckJam will be performed by “The Anarchy Orchestra,” an ensemble whose repertoire features extended instrumental versions of classic punk and alternative tunes. Think the Blue Man Group’s band at a rave at 3 in the morning. Now picture the Boom Boom HuckJam going on at the same time.
Last year’s tour – the first national arena tour to feature skateboarders, BMX racers and Motocross riders as the arena headliners packed major venues from coast to coast.
At the heart of the show is a multi-million dollar ramp system, which includes a massive halfpipe encircled by a Motocross track, enabling Moto-X riders to launch over the skate ramp.
When the riders all went off at once, it was possible to see Tony and Hoffman pull synchronized 720s while Hart floated a “superman” over the ramp.
Meanwhile, top musical talent rocked the house.
The highly successful 2002 tour received a flood of press, with articles in scores of national magazines, metropolitan newspapers, a feature on CBS’s “60 Minutes II,” and an hour-long special that aired on ESPN, MTV2 and Fox Sports Net.
“Tony Hawk’s Boom Boom HuckJam” is presented by video game giant Activision. Sponsors supporting the tour are Hershey’s Milk, Frito Lay’s Go Snacks, Hot Wheels, and McDonalds. Media partners are MTV2 and Transworld. The tour is being produced by SLAM Management.
