    "A blend of punk, ska, and straight up rock’n’roll that appeals to the sing-a-long music fans and even the "muso" musician types that typically dismiss punks as not being able to play their instruments.........The idealistic unifying tone of Dick’s lyrics, coupled with the catchy driving riffs of the band, allow the Fish to appeal to a wide variety of folks. Heck, they are the only punk band my whole immediate family has seen play live, twice! My mother still partially blames the band for my father’s unemployment. After hearing Dick’s ranting prelude to "Phone in Sick" at a Philly gig, my father burst out applauding and shouting "Yeah, now that’s a good one! Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!" and took another 6 months off." - by Craig O’Hara, author of The Philosophy of Punk: More Than Noise. ********************************************************************
