if you think that these guys make peanuts, your probably just looking at competition winnings, they have some pretty hefty sponsorship deals that i'd quite happily take under my arm.

what is the name of the first song??

[flemjob]

What music you listen to is irrelevant. Pearl Jam is grunge, grunge came from punk. Whats your point? Woman complaining? Thats a first, ha ha ha.

[flemjob]

Bwwhahahaha. I live in a different country to my parents. They live near Jeffreys Bay and I live in England. Look I also tried the tour in SA but didn't make much money. That was 15 years ago thought. Guess what I found a job. Did you see Seans interview about why he doesn't do the QS? He said its because he enjoys surfing as a sport not a job. There's plenty rippers out there that dont do it for a living. I'll also say that some sportsman aren't qualified to get another job.

You do not worry about money because you live at home, use your parents credit card, and do not cook or shop for your own groceries. Its not about greed dipshit. What about the Women's ASP? You think they are not complaining?

[UCSDEngineerDoctor]

The music played at the beginning is not pearl jam.

Well sorry to inform you but not every sportsman is going to make a fortune. Perhaps you're too ignorant to realise that. I dont think it was their intention to make a lot of money when they started surfing. So take your greed and shove it. Asp surfing friends making peanuts. I know quite a few myself and they're not complaining.

So lets compare your concept to other sports. What kind of music should they play for golf and tennis? At rugby matches they play rock when points are scored. What music do they play at the superbowl? Rock. I think ol Jack is meant for after the surf with a spliff and a beer, not during the surf. If anything his stuff is more stoner than punk. Seeing as one of his main influences is bob marley. Sorry but you're the odd one out on the debate dad.

[flemjob]

Well next time when you're out surfing ask Jack what he thinks of punk music. Apparently he is a fan and used to play in local punk bands. Kelly Slater loves Pearl Jam. Ever seen the Momentum movies? Have you got any idea how big The Offspring and bands like them were and are in the surfing scene?

Surfing is not mainstream, when I see my ASP surfer friends making peanuts on the tour!!!
