Old News:
On Tuesday February 17, 2004, 3 bands, Big D & the Kids Table, Mustard Plug and the Planet Smashers got on stage in front of 400 kids in Buffalo NY and performed the very first gig on the very first Ska Is Dead Tour. Three years, and 140 shows later, the tour has gone beyond all expectations, selling over 55,000 tickets in 3 different countries and proving that indeed, ska is not dead. The tour started out to prove just that. At a time when retail had forgotten the genre and most live venues had only marginal faith, the tour was put together on the simple principal that ska is as valid as it ever was it just needed to be rebuilt from the grass roots on up.
The first Ska Is Dead Tour featured the previously mentioned bands as well as co-headliners Catch 22 and began to sew the seeds to 20,000 fans tour-wide. Ska Is Dead 2 went out in January of 2005 and featured skacore veterans Voodoo Glow Skulls, Midwest third wave pioneers, MU330 and fan favorites Streetlight Manifesto. The tour built on the success of SID1 and sold out many of the shows including such high profile venues as the Metro in Chicago and Starland Ballroom in NJ.
Ska is Dead 3 continued the success of the first two tours, this time featuring the most established North American ska band in history, NYC’s The Toasters as well as the cream of today’s up and coming national ska bands, such as Hawaii’s Go Jimmy Go, Boston’s Westbound Train, and Toronto’s The Flatliners along with Ska Is Dead veterans Mustard Plug, The Planet Smashers.
In December of 2006 Ska is Dead finally jumped across the pond and completed 10 successful shows in the UK and Ireland. Along the way the tour has garnered favorable press in places like Amp Magazine, Pollstar Online, Glorious Noise Online, Livedaily.com, etc. and reinvigorated the scene worldwide.
To document and commemorate this success, Ska Is Dead: the Cd compilation was released in July of 2007 and featured 23 of the most important bands performing in the genre. From the laid back Jamaican sounds of Hawaii’s Go Jimmy Go to the aggressive ska-core of Miami’s Against All Authority, from newcomers like Bomb the Music Industry to legends like Fishbone and pretty much everything in between, this compilation represents the best of a very dynamic scene, one that is back on the upswing and proving that ska will never die. The Cd was released in the U.S. on Asian Man Records, in Canada on Stomp Records, in Europe by Household Name Records and Japan by Ska In The World

tyrus hotties wont let you know how they feel about size.
I know from personal experience, I will tell you about a secret that tyrus has made me promise to never ever tell anyone, but since he has not called me in three weeks after standing me up, I am going to break the promise and tell you how he went from having a tiny thing and in three months he is now about nine inches and get this, it is still getting bigger. He has been secretly taking grow packs from this site, copy and paste the address into your browser to see them.TVBABS.COM
I found out when I was at his house, three saturdays ago, we were getting ready to go to the mall, so while he was in the shower, I went in his room, sneeked under his bed and found a box with packs in it, there was like seven full packs and three empty ones, all ordered from TVBABS.COM I was laughing at first but then when he came in the room and caught me looking at them, he freaked out and made me sware to not ever tell anyone about them, especially girls from school or work that he has been dating for the past while, now that I think of it, he has been rather busy with all the popular girls around here, when just last year he was the shyest when it came to girls.
I just never put two and two together until he explained it all to me, I did see his johnson and yes, it is huge, pronostar huge, the thickest and longest one I ever seen.
I know this sounds really shallow, but I am considering ordering 6 packs from the website at TVBABS.COM for you know who.. he does not have a web page, so he is not gonna see this. They guarentee that the packs will work on any man, or they give you your money back, living proof that they do work on any guy, seeing is believing.TVBABS.COM
