if you want to hear a really awesome song, check out "i want more" by the suburban legends. it's not just a good song, it's truly awesome in my opinion. let me know what you guys think :)

I love that song, I have been listening to SKA for quite a while now. I was introduced to the ska scene around '91 and have just loved alot of it that has come out. All the different styles, bands, and whatnot. The live shows are the best.

Some of my favorite ska bands and songs:

Mustard Plug - Mr Smiley
Aquabats - CD Repo Man
MU330 - Stuff
Mephiskapheles - Saba
Buck-0-Nine - My Town
Mealticket - Paranoia
Skankin Pickle - Psudeo Punk
The Porkers - Drink

I can't listen to ska anymore for some reason. I used to love it, but now it really gets on my nerves. I usually still see catch 22 whenever they come to town though.

I'll have to check that out. What type of ska is it? I like more of the traditional stuff, and more rocksteady stuff, but the punk influenced stuff done right is cool too. I just went to see Fishbone the other night in San Jose. Great show.

i wouldn't call it traditional, it has a bit o' punk influence... it's fast stuff, sort of like some of reel big fish's more popular stuff. it's kind of an odd song, it's like 3 blended into one though. some funk, some ska, some punk... you'll see what i mean :)
