Slaughter at the Opera is on today!!! For the live webcast, head over to the Globe site tonight, Feb. 29, at 7pm PST if you're in the states, or just head over to the Sydney Opera House if you're in Oz (gates open 10am, March 1, since it's already tomorrow down under). It's come to my attention that I actually do have some readers in Australia, so I thought I'd throw that in there (skate hard, Jake, Oliver, Eric, and Rebecca!) Thrasher has some pre-Slaughter Globe team antics up on the P-Stone video blog here.

While you wait for it, click over to SkateparkOfTampa.com for an Aussie travelblog from SPoT's Ryan Clements and Brian Schaeffer: SPoTlight productions is helping run the event, and also scouting locations in Melbourne for the first Damn Am Down Under event while they're there. So far, the SPoT dudes have chronicled Slam Magazine's skater of the year party for Lewis Marnell, a wicked Eric Koston slam, and other Australian adventures
Running with the theme... Team Emerica is also down under, filming for the forthcoming flick Stay Gold. Check the photo blog here. With half the skate industry exported to Australia for the weekend, there should be some interesting news and footage trickling out. Stay tuned!
