May daze!

Holy krap, what an odd month for the band. Half of us are moving, preparing to move, preparing to have children, or just plain acting like children (see: Halo 2 beer 'n pizza fest.)

Big thanks to everyone who came out to the Dave Roberts fundraiser in Campbell River, and to the bear we sideswiped, hope your ass hair grows back before Meatball and Doogie grow their first ones. On their chins.

Sad to say that we aren't playing the Victoria Ska Fest this year :( But, it's all good: we'll be there as fans and consumers of the beer! It'll be hard to top last year but Dane always brings in the top-flight talent. And, he laughs well. If his laugh was a food, it'd be beef stew.

In terms of 'lifters shows, we're getting our summer bookings worked out right now... watch for the usual Canada Day madness in Swy-a-lana Lagoon (Nanaimo!) as well as a weekend at the lovely Silva Bay Resort on Gabriola Island, July 29th (Meatball's birthday!! the big 1-7) and 30th.

On a last note: the server that hosts our website crashed worse than Craig attempting a sudden stop on skates! So, our site has been down for a bit... hopefully it should be back up in the next few days.

More gig news and some exciting news regarding some surf tunes in the next few days...

PS. I meleed Stone Broker and Doogie hhahahahahahahhahaah

thanks for the kind words :) We wish we were playing skafest too; it's my fave music event of the year! To be fair, of course, there are a ton of great ska bands in the world that deserve a shot to drop their rhythms on Victoria... but if you want to see us there next year, send a note to Enigmatica Entertainment :)

PS - i'll recommend more Victoria shows to the hoser who does the booking, whoooeeee
