SKA!!!
STREETLIGHT fucking rule man. C. Thatcher is the boss on drums. And their new CD '99 Songs of Revolution' is just plain spectacular if you know any of the originals.. and even still if you don't.
i go apeshit over the planet smashers, Mad Caddies, Big D.., Mighty Mighty Bosstones, & MU330(among tonz of other bands). Pretty much anything with a big horn section is great. But shit without horns still rules. But that usually tends to get a little punky or whathaveyou..
i just saw RX Bandits in Toronto last night too... their later shit isn't that ska but still amazing nonetheless.
And with that all said.. i leave you with this.
