Your other ska choices in Rock Band consist of No Doubt and one Bosstones track.

There's a guy who's working on getting some of the smaller ska bands on it as well. He's working on two tracks for us, and I know he's working on stuff for The Pinstripes and Fatter Than Albert as well. I'm not sure when our stuff is going up, I think we're just waiting on the songs to be approved right now.

I might also be buying rock band just to play this.

Someone should upload "Teen Idol" to RBN just to see what happens.

The song was pretty popular when I first saw them ten years ago (:ohdear:), but Matt has since said, "playing that song would be like loving an ex-girlfriend -- that I don't even like."

That and Secret Agent Man, haha. RXB is one of the few bands that have really changed their sound, and I probably prefer the newer RXB over the old stuff.


And completely unrelated but I just remembered this, on the FIF DVD there's live footage of RXB with Leanne on saxophone. If you are a FIF fan you probably should already have that DVD, though.

It wasn't the Johnstones, was it? I don't really think of them as "screamo" so much as "not a musically inclined singer."

I don't know poo poo about record stores in Syracuse, and my buddy's not on who would know. Sorry bro.

Really only started hitting up record stores since I moved here, actually. I'm making one last trip to my favorite tomorrow, in search of one more fun album for the drive home.

I didn't think much of them when I first heard them either. They grew on me over time.

There's no Youtube videos of my favorite song of theirs, but I like this one more than the ones I linked -- I was trying to think of songs that might match the video aricoarena mentioned. But if you don't like them, you don't like them.

97? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1gxJ7mj2uY&feature=related And, if they went to Detroit they could probably have bought that entire bank. Big D makes slick looking vidoes for their new stuff too. But, I find new Big D and the Kids table more terrible than this. If they just didn't have the awful singing and the awful lyrics they would be fantastic.

The only place I know of on long island is crazy donkey. I only know of it because Streetlight has played there. In the city I don't know of any smaller venues except maybe the knitting factory but maybe they're considered big.

Keep me posted about these shows though because I'd like to see them again

oh most def sir, alternately drive your rear end to syracuse for the 4point0 homecoming/RazSum reunion show

even without the whole band RazSum is loving amazing, and the crowd energy at those shows is just incredible. Shouting along to Dickfor is possibly the most fun I've had at a show, except for that time we got a circle going inside of a circle at a 4point0 show

Wow, that Johnstones band is so horrible. I imagine that's what manufactured mainstream ska music would sound like. Everything condensed down into one lovely guy on a trombone.

Quite the trek for a Sunday when I have work the following morning! However it looks like a few days before that show is one in Brooklyn like 5 minutes away from where I work so that should do the trick!

So pissed I missed this. How was it?

New Haven was pretty sweet place to be in the mid-late 1990's.

Best show I ever saw, any band, was SHJ a few weeks after Static World View was released at the Tune Inn.

I missed the tribute show after Dave died, and now missed the reunion show (which I had heard was going to happen). meh.
