Stoked for the show on the 21st!! I am going to try and bring some Brazilian tropicalia music for you, I remember drunkenly telling you to check it out at Mukwah...haha. Cheers!
Our first live show in 22 years is on stage with you all. We won't be playing the New Music West Festival Showcase - Our first Vancouver show in 2 decades is Sunday Aug. 24th at the first Annual Skaspot Live Picnic - at a location to be determined in the lower mainland. Tix won't go on sale until after the Ska Festival is over. We are looking forward to playing with Buena Buya - you have an interesting and unique sound.
aaaahhh! you guys were amazing, my times at the waverly are always so good. it was great to see you after at Jesse's party. PLUS your little red suits were insanely awesome.
Thanks for adding me. ¶ Love, but not blindly -- don't confuse it with sleep. Love all people, but not all ideas; think to distinguish helpful ideas from hurtful ones. We are immersed in a culture of destructiveness, and we must end it before it ends us. Our many problems have a common root: Bullies, liars, thieves, and murderers — particularly those in public office — believe people are motivated only by greed and fear. They want us to share that belief, because they use it to justify themselves and to manipulate us. That belief shapes the political and economic systems of the world, perpetuating war and poverty. ¶ But you and I have found something better inside ourselves and our friends. It's in everyone, if we can just wake them — we're all one flesh and blood. Let us spread that word, for until we do our other advances will be minor and temporary. The outcome to the ideological struggle is not yet determined, so no one can afford to be a spectator. Join the conversation. ¶ The Iraq war, like most wars, was based on lies. And now the occupation is making new enemies faster than it can kill them; that's helpful only to arms dealers. The economy is all wrong too: the rich get richer and fewer, everyone else gets screwed, and the ecosystem gets trashed. These problems are not new, but lately they've become so blatant that we've begun to understand them. It's time to end the military-industrial complex and the corporatocracy. We the people must control government, and government must control business, not the other way around. A good start would be transparency in government, public financing of election campaigns, trustbusting the media, and ending corporate personhood. ¶ Question authority. Keep on fighting, loving, hoping, and singing. Hand in hand, we may still be able to heal the world. — Love, Eric
