SKA IS DEAD 3

[grassroots]

so i came back from ska is dead 3 tonight. it was awesome, however, of the 5 bands that played, i only saw two. im sick, but i thought the ska would cure me. it didnt. i saw the Planet Smashers, and the Toasters, both bands i hadnt seen before since ive had to miss their shows somehow or another. but both very solid bands. id check them out if you could. i stayed for two songs from mustard plug, however, they seem to be lacking something since they had the lineup changes. the two people i went with and i just werent interested in mustard plug as wed seen them before and the set hasnt changed. theyve been touring for like a solid three years and havent released a new album yet. we missed los vicios de papas, a local latin ska band thats sweet and play local shows all the time, and lord mikes dirty calypsonians with ex members of deals gone bad, which also plays shows around here all the time, and are excellent.
