Ska in the Park is over!

Holy crap guys, was that a fun show or what? Yes/No/Maybe (Circle one)

So to recap Saturday's Ska in the Park in Dashes acting the part of bullet points:
- Bhakti danced a whole lot, played with Half Past Two, then danced a whole lot more!
- Lindsey wore a tiny top hot
-I kept telling people my old band isn't getting back together, but they need to watch Half Past Two's set for awesomeness
-Half Past Two delivered said awesomeness
- Tyler's Zoom Q3 Handy Video Recorder fell off our combined superampstack 6000 (that's it's spiritual name, anyway) but it survived!
- Curtis wore a killer purple shirt!
- Patrick Holder returned from his Asian adventure
- Dave encouraged a kick with a broken foot and in a wheelchair to get in to the pit
- That kid totally got into the pit with his wheelchair
- Bands rocked
- There were lot of horns
- Mustard Plug made me feel like I was in High School again
- I ate a free hot dog, but passed on free cake (chocolate, no less!)
- Defunked made a mess on the roof with silly string and streamers and I was totally jealous
- Grim Luck fans marched into the main room carrying their cello player above their heads from the alley stage
- We played a NEW SONG and it ROCKED!!
- Most importantly I made funny faces while playing, like this one:
-Last, but not least I learned that the Ska scene is very much alive.

So there you have it kids, that was Ska in the Park. Sure there was about 27 bands that I didn't mention, but hopefully a lot of you were there and got to experience the day! Hopefully there's a next year and hopefully it's awesome.

Speaking of awesome!!! We're making our awesome return to awesome Pomona, California for our next show!! We're playing the Glasshouse on Tuesday, July 13, 2010 with Defunked, Maxwell Smart and Pato Banton! Check it out because there will likely be rocking and/or rolling happening! Also, the Glasshouse now has a glass front again, so it's no longer the particle board house! Everybody wins!!!

Thank you and Goodnight!
Anthony
