He committed suicide after Next Friday for some reason too?
Yeah kind of cool how they took real people, or real Kids even, and threw em in the movie. The guy I knew actually worked at a old skate shop that is now closed down since years back. Anyways, movie was messed up with the whole aids thing but enjoyed seeing our nyc street and club culture in a movie
