I wish that I still had the Skatalites LP my parents brought back from a trip to Jamacia around 1965.

I'm not a pizza person, don't ask me. I stay right next door a few times a week and have never tried it, so I make no claims to any sort of expertise on this topic.

Ironically, one of our sponsors is a pizza place, and their logo is on the butt of our shorts, so people often call us the pizza team. Or in races "hey, pizza!"

Sorry, I think I might be partially responsible for this one.

I'd guess being asked to be a mod before banned. They like the inmates to run this particular asylum.

at one time I loved ska. the Specials, Bad Manners, a few others. Then out of the blue I hated it (probably when it got "popular") and havent listened to it since. Prolly around '91.

Lots of good Oi! from back in the day as well.

I got into some of the third wave bands back in the early 90s, but I didn't keep any of the discs and my multiple head strikes and aging memory doesn't really serve to recall if it was really any good.

Isn't there a place that has "Ray's" in the name someplace that's supposed to be good?
