d_rawk Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 Sorry if this is already being discussed on another thread (please point me there, if so). I checked the Ottawa Music Listings forum too, but didn't see anything.Is anyone hitting the Ska Fest? Is anyone familiar enough with any of these bands to recommend what is worth seeing and what isn't?http://www.myspace.com/ottawaskafesthttp://www.skattawa.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d_rawk Posted May 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 Wow, I really really dislike shows that end ~ midnight.For the brief hour or so that I was there, though, I can say that it was pretty god damn fun. And the dancing was fantastic.Repeat: the dancing was fantastic.Brad - the new bayou is the same as the old bayou. Nothing has changed that I noticed. The tables were gone, but I think that was just in order to give the kids some space.(Oh! And the people working the door were all dressed as cats, complete with an 'I can haz tipz?' jar. That certainly didn't detract from the experience.) Will probably be back tomorrow night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagochips Posted May 19, 2008 Report Share Posted May 19, 2008 I checked out the Friday night show. I swear the average age of attendees increased by a few years just by my showing up. The Clock Strikes Music and Whitey were great. Very hot and sweaty in there with all those nice young people "skanking" it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
