Taylor Rodeo
Since 1950, the Taylor Rodeo Association has proudly brought to you the Taylor Annual Rodeo in the hometown of Bill Pickett.

Do you live life to the fullest? For thirty years now, this is a question that has been challenged by a formidable group known as the Skatenigs. A band of heathens that has survived like cockroaches navigating life’s ups and downs making no excuses for their unconventional lifestyles or lack of. Phil Owen (aka Phildo) developed a brand of music that stole from every aspect of outlaw genres such as punk rock, heavy metal, rap, hillbilly, and every sacred rock and roll anthem vulnerable to its taking. After landing a deal with the Chicago-based Wax Trax Records, through an introduction from his Revolting Cocks cohort and Ministry’s main man Al Jourgensen, Phildo penned the now-classic song “Chemical Imbalance.” 2016 brought the release of the band’s most current album “Adult Entertainment for Kids”. This album currently is streamed in 51 countries and has assured the Skatenigs are anything but forgotten! Join Phildo and his band as they rise from the gutter to bring you an undeniable experience that is sure to be on your bucket list!
