Right, so I'm sure you all like ska already. Here's a directory where I upload music, feel free to download it, hotlink it, whatever.

I'm a big ska fan also.  Here's an awsome local band (I've been to all of there show's except for the one yesterday, which was postponed from friday and I had plans to see): www.myspace.com/thirdwavebandits or there website www.3wb.org

What ska bands you like?  My favorite is Streetlight Manifesto.

Yeah, Streetlight is good. They're like a gateway band. I like a lot of bands, it's hard to pick a favorite. Check the "favorites" directory to see a couple favorites.

Yeah _3fg that is just one example of ska but there are some bands that play happy ska. Speaking of Streetlight Manifesto they just played down the street from me like 4 days ago at the Crocidile Rock

Ok... sure, I'll check them out... link or something?  I'm in a Ska band called 'The G-Strings' actually.  Due to conflicting schedual's we rarely practice though, but we are getting together this friday.

Ever heard the song Flashlight? Worst song I've ever heard. The only good song they have is their cover of The Specials song Little b****. And it's only good because Big D didn't write it.

On the topic of Ska, there is a small possibility that my band will be opening for Catch 22 in two weeks.

I just thought I'd mention I've been listening to Streetlight's new album, Somewhere In The Between recently, and it's amazing.  Get it. Now.
