   About the Ready Steady Go!
Ready Steady Go! is a five piece band hailing from the Washington, DC area. Featuring ska veterans from bands such as the Ratchet Boys, Woody the Fish, the psychobilly band the Alphabet Bombers; the RSG! brings you the tight fusion of ska with a dose of Elvis Costello and Two-tone influences. Current members of the band also play in local rock n roll acts such as Thee Lexinton Arrows and Geisha Lightening, and the big country sounds of Cowboy Amnesia.

In just a couple years RSG! has shared the stage with bands such as King Django, Dr. Ring Ding, the Pietasters, Eastern Standard Time, The Aggrolites, Go Jimmy Go, Shakedowns, Gamma Rays, Goons, Coolie Ranx, 2 1/2 White Guys, The All Mighty Senators, Las Cabriolas, Westbound Train, Mass Hysteria, Avoid One Thing, The Afterbeat, The Alphabet Bombers, Hub City Stompers, The Players, Val Yumm, Springfields, Five Maseratis, Los Hermanos Rodriguez, Latchkey, The Liberation, The Homeowners, Die Cheerleader Die, Overprivileged, The Screws, Charley Horse, Big Daddy Chrome, Plan Nine USA, Queen Anne's Revenge, High School Hellcats, TMLE, The Noelles, Bowlcuts, Booboise, Oskama Bin Laden and the Jihad Jammers, MKH, No Talent Show and many more.

May Mayhem!







Last month's semifinal game between Scare Force One and the Cherry Blossom Bombshells came down to a nail-biting double overtime, and the Bombshells are trying to carry that momentum to vanquish the fierce DC DemonCats, who haven't lost a game since October. This exciting season championship matchup will be the last DC Rollergirls home game until the fall, so don't miss out!



In addition, fans can watch an expo matchup between Scare Force One and the River City Rollergirls of Richmond, VA, and check out Jason Leffler's #38 NASCAR showcar. Plus, in honor of Mother's Day, moms will get a gift at the door!



It's tailgating season, so come early to Stadium/Armory Lot 3 and get a head start on the fun! The lot opens at 3 p.m.



Tickets are available in advance through Ticketmaster (service charge applies), at the RFK Stadium box office and at the door on bout day.

The DC Rollergirls again have back-to-back home and travel bouts in March.


On Saturday, March 14, home teams Scare Force One and DC DemonCats will face eachother for the second time this season. The 2-1 DemonCats were victorious the last time around, but 1-1 Scare Force is itching for another win.
The Cherry Blossom Bombshells will take on the Boardwalk Brawlers of Shore Points Roller Derby in an expo game.







On Saturday, March 21, the DC All-Stars head to Pennsylvania again, this time to take on the Dutchland Derby Rollers in Lancaster.
