Roller Skating Tour kicks off in Los Angeles August 1. A preview party, which is also open to the public,will take place on July 25 in San Diego with a guest DJ.“Our show is so much fun, we want to invite everyone to have fun with us,” says Seth Green. “Grab your friends,your couple’s skate partner and some kneepads. We’re coming to your town! Or at least to a major market somewhat closeto your town.”“When Seth first pitched the idea of throwing roller skating parties around the country, I rolled my eyes and laughedat him,” says Matthew Senreich. “I said, ‘That’s crazy talk.’ Now that we’re actually going to do it, I’m in awe of itsabsurdity and can’t wait to attend. It fits with the randomness of our Robot Chicken show. Why not throw roller skating parties across the U.S.?”Adult Swim’s
