Hmmmmm. I'll actually be in Whistler that day.

I wonder if that band still brings the funky-ska. I never did see them live.

Buffalo Bills would be far from my first choice of venues, but it could be worse. I might just be at this show, actually.

go see them.

they are back to a 7-8 piece with an incredible horn section and have been playing a lot more to their ska roots.

their new album 'Still stuck in your throat' just came out, and its awesome.

I saw them at the Vic Ska Fest in 2005 and they sounded awesome. Judging from the live bootlegs that have been coming out over the last few months, they are sounding even better now.

fishbone is definitely in the top 3 bands I've ever seen, and they very well could be the best live band ever.

Wow. That is quite a raving review.

I appreciate that.

I am pretty much decided to go to this show. Your post is very encouraging.

Thanks!

This was a fun show last night. It didn't get started until well after midnight, and was over by 1:30, but it was one helluva kickass 75 minutes or so.

Great band; great time.
