Tony Hawk Skates Until Interpol Stops Touring | Music News

Tony Hawk just dropped a wild one: he’s not quitting skateboarding until Interpol stops touring. The legendary skater, who first fell for their music back in 2002 with “Turn On the Bright Lights,” even witnessed them live during a Jay Leno Show sound check in 2004—where he was doing slow handplants while they played “Slow Hands.” Hawk sees his own lifelong dedication to skating as parallel to Interpol’s enduring commitment to music, making his declaration both heartfelt and hilarious. The band, now signed to Partisan Records and gearing up for a massive tour—including a co-headline run with Bloc Party and a new album “This Mirror Weighs A Ton” dropping August 28—shared a clip of Hawk’s intro, thanking him for “riding with us.” And when asked about AI replacing art, they’re cool: AI can only remix what exists—it can’t create new human experience.
