ska
Lately i've been getting into Ska, but i dont really know that many good ska bands. anybody have any suggestions?
i think Mat L said he was way into ska, im not sure about everyone else...
my favorite right now is Five Iron Frenzy, but i also like Reel Big Fish.
Some things take more than a lifetime.

Operation Ivy, Mustard Plug, Less Than Jake, Planet Smashers, and Common Rider (I would recommend Classics of Love by Common Rider...great song) are
all great ska bands.
You should also check out some awesome ska bands from Mississauga and Burlington:

wants me. I'm not going to waste one more minute wondering how I've gotten this lucky. She smells like angels ought to smell, the perfect
woman... the Goddess. Goldie. She says her name is Goldie.

I don't really stand what ska means, this is the only place i have ever heard people use it, but from the bands I've heard of that list I
think i get the picture. I like Crowned king...I forget what the song was called tho
How do you communicate those emotions that are so intense that no physical expression or series of words can even scratch the surface?

Planet Smashers put on an amazing show. I've never had so much fun at a show before.

YA SKA! I fucking love it!
check out my hometown ska band GreenDivision. They are amazing. The mp3s on the site are old and not good at all though. But catch them live at the
dungeon in oshawa, they usual play there lots. Oh and they are playing next saturday at le Skratch in Oshawa for bandwarz finals. woo hoo!
Anyhoo paige mentioned most of the good bands. But for sure check out: the mad caddies, big D, and catch 22!
hey Paige: are you going to the ska is dead show? I think I am, I don't want to miss it.

oh man, bring back the old threads. paige wound up missing the ska is dead show, since it was on the same night as the rufio concert. I wish i went to
the ska is dead tour. i have recently become addicted to the planet smashers. i also missed seeing crowned king on friday, at the nxne show. They
were playing with sleeper set sail, the reason and blue skies at war.
Big D is coming back with Catch 22, RX bandits and Reel Big fish on the 28th (i think)... and STREETLIGHT MANIFESTO is coming!!
