The Toasters have been around since 1981 and have undertaken their 28th YEAR ANNIVERSARY TOUR IN 2008. Formed on the Lower East Side of Manhattan they traded punches with the best of them at the legendary CBGB's Club (RIP) on the Bowery. With early releases produced by the great Joe Jackson they zoomed into prominence as America's early ska pioneers and have been blazing the way for the rest of them ever since. Alongside bands like Fishbone they helped engineer the American ska craze in the 80's and 90's.
Since that time they have continued to provide an international benchmark for the genre whilst never losing sight of where they cam from.
2009 will see them undertaking yet another world tour.
28 years, 5000 live concerts, 16 albums, a million miles...but most of all - 100% SKA

Thanks for adding/accepting me as a friend. I hope that you enjoy my music! I'm 20 years old & am a seasoned big band saxophonist, but I'm also a talented singer/songwriter/producer that makes meaningful, positive, catchy music! I've been a student of music my entire life & couldn't begin to imagine doing anything else! Oh, & I recently started designing MySpace layouts too! I just finished designing my music profile layout which you can see on my page now, so if you have a minute, go take a look & tell me what you think! Anyway, how are you doing today? Just stopping bye to show you & your page mad respect & love. Get Back At Me if you get a minute. Take a listen, drop a comment, sign the guestbook...any support is very much appreciated!
Little late, I know, but it was a huge honor playing on the same stage as you guys, we are all fans and the chance was great. It was a fun evening and hope it was an ok show for you folks as well.
