Audobon Skate Park
From Louisville Punk/Hardcore History
Revision as of 14:57, 13 February 2007 by The last pedestrian (talk | contribs)
Audobon Skatepark was located in the back of a skateshop (Skateboards Unlimited) on Preston Highway near the fairgrounds. Nestled between train tracks, busy Preston, and I-65, it was a good place to have shows without getting shut down for noise complaints.
Achieved status as a weird historical footnote when Melinda Loveless took in a punk show there in 1992 in the hours before she and friends ended up abducting, beating, raping and eventually burning 12-year-old Shanda Sharer.
Bands to play there:
- Integrity
- Sunspring
- Endpoint
- Nation of Ulysses
- Kinghorse
- Cinderblock
