Ska is not dead.
Well well well. Let me recap this for you.
Starting at the top:
Bad Larry (in no real order of songs)
Another Way
Call To Arms
Ska Tissue
Tabitha
B-Side
Label
Sarah Hates Less Than Jake
Plus some cover than I can't identify.
Highlights: Everything
Lowlights: Absolutely nothing
Cool points of intrest: They did a verse of Sublime's What I Got towards the end of Sarah Hates Less Than Jake; and the guitarist from Senior Discount came onstage and played guitar for Ska Tissue, while Paul sang his lungs off
Mu330
No clue what songs they played
Highlights: Really huge trombone player screaming "OK PROVIDINCE, YOU WANT TO HEAR SOME HARDCORE PUNK ROCK?" then singing a fairy tale theme; black trombonist dancing onstage; huge trombone player grabbing a chainsaw and running aroung onstage with it
Lowlights: Some slow songs
Voodoo Glow Skulls
All I know is that they played DD Hates Ska, Charlie Brown, Ghetto Blaster, and Fat Randy
Highlights: Trombone player hocking a huge loogie onto the chick next to me; their insane intensity; awesome skanking action
Lowlights: Just what exactly are they "singing?"
Streetlight Manifesto
Failing, Flailing
Everything Went Numb
Point/Keasbey Nights/Counterpoint
If And When We Rise Again
A Moment of Silence
A Moment of Violence
BOTAR Cover: Here's To Life
Some Cover that I didn't know
The Big Sleep
The Saddest Song
We Are the Few
Catch 22 Cover: Dear Sergio (with BOTAR verse)
I might have forgotten a few inbetween, but it was sick, ok? Sick doesn't really do it justice, when for example in A Moment of Silence, there's a pause between guitar riff and singing, and SM held it out. So some dude in the crowd starts singing, and we all pick it up. In the middle of the song, at another pause, Tomas, the lead singer is like "I just wanted to let you guys know, nobody has ever done that before. That's awesome."
Then, obviously, Point/Keasbey Nights/Counterpoint was crazy; as was Dear Sergio. What happened was that they said they were done, and we all knew they were full of it. We start chanting "Let's go Streetlight!" and they come back and play two more, ending with Dear Sergio.
On a scale of one to ten, the concert was a forty-two million. Shame on all of you for not going.
