    Love Skavoovie

    Any other Ska fans here on the XMTS other than me and Rocky? If so, what's your grove?

    I have my faves across the waves, but the First Wave stuff really rocks my boat. Check it out:

    One chord! What more do you need

    Was a huge Ska fan in the day. Still listen to one of the greatest collections on disc! The Two Tone Collection. I am a bit out of touch now a days. After working at Sam Goody for several years and having to play only the Billboard crap, I had to keep current. Maybe I need to step back again! Thanks for the reminder.

    I've seen Skavoovie & The Epitones - nothing like watching an 8-piece brass section live. I'm a huge fan of ska, old-school, third-wave, you name it. I haven't kept up much in the last ten years or so, but still listen to what I've got on a near-daily basis.

    I used to listen to ska in middle school, but then it started running together. It's like punk's kid brother who's always happy and jumping around seeking attention.

    ...but that's just one man's opinion.
