this shit was all over the radio here in SD
them tony hawk pro skater royalties
and I'm pretty sure this was the first subllime single/music vid i ever saw on mtv/heard on the radio (followed by what I got and then santeria)
Here in Your Bedroom" was the Goldfinger song they played the most on the radio here. I'm in Canada so the radio's a bit different here though.
This one got love here. I saw them dudes with my mom way back when
My favourite Skolars song
Thats my second fave
Thats my fave fave. Had a lot of first with my wife to this album.
I remember being hart broken when they stopped doing this one live. The girl thats about was a pal of my sisters.
Thanks for putting that up so we all can enjoy it
Parka Kings (I got this cd for free from Telegraph when I saw them open for The Suicide Machines in Toronto, they threw them out into the crowd and I caught one)
the other song on there 2 million dollars is better but its another one thats nowhere on youtube and I still havent gotten around to sending out my cd order. parka kings were one of my all time faves from around here. and that comp is my fave of all time. Every song on it is good.
I had 3 jump up patches between my backback and jacket and was convinced that no label even came close to the awesomeness jump up was puttin out. Asian man came close though.
Im stuck on some Johnny hobo tonight
My wife has informed that its screechy and sucks
After I posted that I saw that you just posted them in the "songs with great horns" thread, I thought that was pretty funny.
Asian Man, Dill, Hopeless records, and Elevator music... They ran Ska, as far as I was concerned in the late 90's
God your on a roll putting my fave songs up on youtube. I been wishing this one would pop up off and on for years.
You forgot moonska man
They were killin it in the 90s too but at the time a lot of that was a more traditional sound that took me some growing up to truly appreciate
If you make it down here to michigan let me know man theres still plenty of good shows and bands roaming round these parts and if you are still playing in bands id love to check your shit out live.
Rhymemaster... my favourite song on the comp (wasn't ever able to find anything else from him/them)
Thanks for the offer, you never know. I wish I knew people here that played punk/ska/screamo type stuff. My old band still play from time to time but they're too far away.
Yea I wish I played but I would be a detriment to any band I was in because I dont have time for that kind of commitment and I dont get into anything I cant give my all. I havent tried to be in a band since i was like19 . I can play the bass and sing but I cant make a day have 40 hours
Another good one
neighbours
Speaking of those mine is actually in several different bands and a pretty decent fellow. Lets hear some of that....
I always tell em we should jam some ska and he always tells me he hates that shit
I always harass em to play kiss the bottle twice and heckle em during band practice too. Its a small world man it cracked me up that it turned out I already new my neighbor when I moved in
The punk scene in Detroit has really shrunk since the 90s and the dudes that are in bands seem to be in like 5 of them.
I have a good small world story. About 20 years ago My aunt and uncle were visiting from Scotland, they rented a car and went down to the outlet malls in Buffalo. They were standing on a street corner in downtown Buffalo (far from the strip malls) and a couple came up and asked them for directions. They recognized each others accents and talked, it turned out they lived 8 houses down from each other on the same street in Scotland, had never met, and then met in Buffalo in a street corner.
