Here is one for you Ska fans!

Sign in to disble this ad
I just saw these guys over the weekend. Without a doubt, the best Ska band I have seen in years, and they are from Edinburgh too! Full of energy, got the crowd going and the band kept on going!

Amazingly tight, upbeat and just damned good fun!

This track is the instrumental title track from their CD "A Fistfull of Dynamite"

Hope you guys enjoy. There are various live clips to pick from too!

To give them credit, they put a heck of a lot more into shows than people half their age! They were going at it like that for over two hours at the weekend

Maybe the music scene is better around your parts, but at least relatively, these guys are awesome. They also have a Beatles tribute album out on iTunes call Skabbey Road

The live music scene in general, not getting into genre specifics

Miami! We had a much better ska scene a while back... even in the early 2000's when I was frequenting shows things were great. (There's a Know How reunion show in Gainseville!)

We just got Agnostic Front at Churchill's... and quite a few locals are coming up... Surfer Blood, Jacuzi Boys, Arsenal 88... And there's a Glasseater reunion coming up also at Churchill's...
