Emil Amos plays drums in OM, and earlier this summer, he got pretty banged up in a skateboarding accident. OM had to postpone their fall tour, and that’s what’s most important here, but I can’t stop thinking about two other skateboard-related things: Rocket Power and Skrillex. Those Rocket Power kids rode their skateboards everywhere. Skrillex skates too. Or so I’ve heard.
But I’m not here to ramble about some old cartoon or a self-proclaimed psychedelic glass dolphin blower. I’m here to say that OM have now rescheduled the tourdates. They’ll be supporting their new album, Advaitic Songs, which came out back in July on Drag City. We chatted with them recently, and even though we didn’t ask if they’ll be skating from city to city, I’d reckon there’s a damn good chance they won’t be.
