Because all of those super awkward and weird band kids love ska, and watching them skank is the most embarrassing thing ever.

Horns are cool? I play a horn! This is going to be so great.

The real question is probably why would anyone like ska?

I only have canyoneyes for you
I went to an outdoor concert thing on Saturday because I won free tickets, and Less Than Jake was playing.
They were playing the hit songs from their album in 1996, but they're all in their 40's and it was really sad. The hour their set was playing was like a designated bathroom break/food and drink run time for all but like 300 people lol
By comparison, Fitz and the Tantrums (who?) drew a crowd of a couple thousand on the next set.

Ska concerts are so sad

I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week
Indulging in my self defeat
My mind was thugged, all laced and bugged, all twisted wrong and beat
A comfortable three feet deep

Now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning week
Impaired my tribal lunar speak
And of course you can't become if you only say what you would have done
So I missed a million miles of fun

I like ska music but I don't know anything about it and am not "in the scene" I just like pop music with horns.

edit: I went to a ska show once it was only a few years ago the whole thing was done kind of ironically I guess but there were total hotties there in large qtys
