Just goes to prove how much ska The Skaficionados actually listen to. We suck.
Sounds Like
Record Label
"Jasonius Bohmanius Music" said The Skaficionados.
Once upon a time there was a Peter Barrett. He wanted to start a band despite constant warnings from his brother, Aaron Barrett. So, he went to town in his magical flip-flops to find some band members. In a clubbin' club, Peter found an Asian who was having a soda. He said, "I wish I was in a ska band with someone named Barrett." Peter immediately exclaimed, "Join mine." So off the two friends went to find a guitarist. Walking along the street, they found themselves in a Regional Mexican suburb. There was one Mexican who was playing a guitar (well that's what they thought). They were very impressed and talked to the manager about buying him. They found out his name was Mexi1543 but everyone called him "Moe". So off they went with their new friend. They started to walk to the ghetto when they saw a poor Ginger kid playing his saxophone for money. They were going to talk to him, but first they needed to get gas masks so they wouldn't catch Ginger-vitis. The Ginger known as Wooley said, "eret (the 'scratching' sound a turntable makes)." As they ventured further into the dangerous ghetto they found a little dirty Samoan boy. He was singing love ballads to all the women. They didn't have enough money to purchase this one because of their previous buy. So they got a net and captured this great singer and they were almost complete. They needed a trumpet player to play and write trumpet parts, which they needed (if that makes any sense). While walking through a jazzy neighborhood in the jazziest part of town, they found a jazzy ja-jazz-jazz trumpet man working the streets. When they approached him, he took a strong defensive stance (almost impervious to missiles and rockets) and said, "Get off my corner, I saw it first!" After reassuring him that they weren't going to steal his corner, the band brainwashed him with their awesome brainwasher, which they found at Guitar Center for only $3! And then, they had a trumpet player. They all got together and made a mental list. Singer—check, Tromboner—check, Saxophone—check, Trumpet—check, Asian—check, Guitarist—check, Drummer...........DRUMMER! They needed a drummer because no one can have a rockin' band without a kickin' drummer! So searching and questing they went, happy as can be. Finally they found an ad for a drummer/plumber's assistant (Luigi). So they went to Plumber's World where this famous drummer/Luigi was staring into a toilet, covered in poopoo water. He was snacking on some beard-growing pills (totally prescription), and looking fine. They were having second thoughts on him but they were getting desperate. So they took him away and had a cool band. There was still the prospect of a name. Then one day the Asian sneezed. Peter then had an idea. He said, "Your sneeze sounded like Skaficionados! That will be our name!" So they ventured off to scour the earth, loving cousins (not really) and killing oppresive rulers. Some say these people will not go far, but I think they will rule the world—or at least Carls Jr.—This great band, The Skaficiodoodandies!
They now live off the coast of Jamaica in a fishing boat made of not-so-solid provolone cheese. Also, punctuation. mishaps. and. grammatical... errors. are. all. part... . ... of..the plan, son.

P.S Peace out.
