Don't take our word for it. @wbur.org says we have "a refreshing sound" and we're a "ska band that Boston can be proud of." THANK YOU for the kind words! "These Are The Nights" is streaming everywhere and on CD/LP/Cassette.

Wild how we used to make fun of people for being addicted to their blackberries and all those things did were email and text.

Wait, he apologized for the blackface thing?

Did he apologize for the man show and/or his friendship with adam toyota?
Our affiliates have made it very clear they expect Mr. Kimmel to apologize for his speech and unapologize for his blackface.

Interesting side effect of being months behind on @muppeturgy.com, they keep referring to the mandatory Disney plus disclaimer on a specific episode (James Coburn, S5E5). That disclaimed was removed by the time I got to watching.

Yikes. 😬

There's something very gross about Bandcamp sales offsetting the cost of distributing to Spotify.

Honestly, I'm mostly jealous of swifties. So little new music by anyone gets me that excited. And I've built my whole life around music.

I haven't been that excited in ages. And to get that excited all the time? Love it. I want that.
