From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Duane Peters (born 1961), nicknamed "The Master of Disaster",[1] is a punk rock singer/songwriter and professional skateboarder, who has been at the top of the sport for almost 30 years.
Biography

Peters is credited for inventing many tricks, such as the "acid drop" into a pool/bowl, the "layback grind", the "Indy air", the "Sweeper", the "backside layback grind revert", the "fakie hang-up" (a.k.a. "Disaster"), the "invert revert", the "fakie thruster", and the "loop of death", a full 360-degree rotation in a specially designed loop.[2] He also, along with Neil Blender, helped to evolve the footplant into the more dynamic fastplant
Peters was one of the very first high profile skaters to embrace punk rock, cutting his hair short and narrowing his jeans when most skaters were still wearing 1970s fashions. However, in the mid-1980s, Peters embraced a "mellow" lifestyle. This included distancing himself from the punks of the era, even joining a "white-funk/new-wave-romantic" band in 1984.[3]
Peters was named Transworld Skateboarding's "Legend" in 2003. He is a professional skateboarder who rides for Pocket Pistols Skates, and also a subdivision of the Black Label Skateboards called Emergency. In May 2005, Black Label Skateboards released a biographic film, entitled Who Cares: The Duane Peters Story,[4] and a second documentary is planned by havocTV, focusing on Peters' and Parks' path to sobriety.[5]
Along with skateboarding, Peters is a well-known punk rock singer. He has formed bands such as the US Bombs, Political Crap, Die' Hunns (also known as Duane Peters and The Hunns), Duane Peters Gunfight, and Exploding Fuckdolls. He also owns a record label called Disaster Records,[6] which represents bands such as The Briggs, Civet and The Hollowpoints.
In 2000, Peters formed Duane Peters and The Hunns with Rob Milucky (previously of The Grabbers and The Pushers fame.) Within two years, the band released three full-length albums and undertook both national and European tours. At a The Damned show in 2002, Peters met future wife Corey Parks, who had just left her previous band, Nashville Pussy. Parks joined Duane Peters and the Hunns on bass guitar and soon the band changed their name to Die Hunns, recorded a fourth full-length album entitled Fire Fight, and embarked on another tour.
Peters is married to Parks, with whom he has a son, Clash Thomas Peters (born in 2004). Clash is the stepbrother to oldest child Schuyler and middle child Chess (Chelsea) Peters; Both from a previous marriage.
Peters has also struggled with drug addictions, mainly heroin, for around 10 years. As of March 2007, Peters and his current band, Die Hunns canceled their tour as Peters once again entered rehabilitation facility.
Peters 20 year-old son Chess (Chelsea) Peters was killed in a car accident on July 6, 2007. [7]
In late 2008, Peters started another independent record label called Indian Recordings. The second Duane Peters Gunfight album entitled Checkmate will be released through this label in March, 2009.
