Whatever, you guys just don't *get* the 90's.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

I'm happy none of this makes any sense to me because I don't know what song you're talking about and I prefer to keep it that way.

Id be down with half of them. Fuck those two headliners though. Never heard Save Ferris alwsys hated the name and left it at that. Goldfinger as I recall were underwhelming. TMMB, Fishbone, Aquabats and Hepcat though should be a good time though.Flex wrote: ↑21 Feb 2018, 9:03pmFLEX WANTS TO GO THERErevbob wrote: ↑21 Feb 2018, 7:46pmCalling Flex...

Ska, not mormon.
Faux addendum: actually, they're a kid-friendly band. Super fun.

I had a mormon friend that was super into them, I guess that's the connection. I thought they were religious somehow.
