Right but they're so drunk that they're falling over and they puked in the chocolate and you're allergic to flowers. BtMI on the other hand is the guy that takes you out on an awesome date, and then continues taking you out on awesome dates, and never hurts you except for sometimes you can't get in touch with him but you really want to see him and you can't. Streetlight's the same way except you literally don't hear from him for three years but then he shows up on your doorstep with a brand new car for you. This is fun.

Catch-22 was really awesome but turned into a totally different person and you just don't have anything in common anymore.

Less Than Jake is obviously the dude that constantly bitches about your town and always talks about how things are going to change when he moves out. But he's never gonna move or stop complaining and you wouldn't have it any other way.

The Aquabats is the unmarried uncle on your mom's side that you idolize him for his neat things and manchildness as a kid but then you grow up and feel a little sad for him because he still hasn't grown up.

Speaking of which, has it been mentioned here that RXB is breaking up after their next tour? I really didn't care much for them when they were a ska band, and I've really been digging the past 3 albums they put out, so this hit me pretty hard. I just really hope they come somewhere close, cause I've really wanted to see them live but put it off.

I wasn't serious about it, just using it to follow the joke. I still like Aquabats and am happy/envious that MC Bat Commandor/Christian has been able to get Yo Gabba Gabba off the ground. I am far from the target audience and I love that Yo Gabba Gabba exists. I wish I had it as a kid. I wish I had a kid I could watch it with.

It makes you wonder what kind of ska exposure they've had when the only names they drop are Less Than Jake, Cherry Poppin' Daddies, and Let's Go Bowling (whom I adore, but still...).

When I think of Christian ska, I think of the OC Supertones. I just remember being in high school and borrowing a friend's cd of the band and occasionally putting it on as background music. One day I decided to pay more attention to the lyrics, and their overt Christian messages made me realized that they were a bona fide Christian ska band. Being able to look up their lyrics online now, I should have realized it sooner:quote:I'm wide awake Bonus link to song the lyrics are from - http://youtu.be/ht5Dk-Ue8cs

As a kid I listened to the Supertones but it's a little harder to listen to them as an adult when their songs literally have lyrics like "Hitler is alive in the knives of abortionists" Five Iron Frenzy was a good band because they attacked within rather than rally the whole fire and brimstone thing. I think their only religious material is about personal reflection, individual spirituality, and none of it is malice. The most angry stuff they've written is about the treatment of Native Americans, and the conduct of other christians and christian bands (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ulw3BGQzZM). The rest of christian ska I can take or leave. I think the Insyderz are funny bad, I can't even remember any others. The W's were the worst example of trendchasing in music history.
