This week Courtney was sounding a little hoarse, but we still had a great time. Tried a new Segment "Give Me a Beat", another alien story, fake bands, and some classic songs. Music this week provided by: No Cash and Go Jimmy Go!
In 1995, promoter Kevin Lyman launched The Warped Tour. The first year's lineup was an eclectic mix of bands from the 90s (including No Doubt and Sublime). In subsequent years, it gained a reputation as a punk rock festival, though the lineups always remained diverse. And ska was always a component, even during the 2000s and 2010s. Some years, Lyman booked a bunch of ska bands. 1998 included The Specials, Hepcat, Pietasters, Skavoovie and the Epitones, and more. On today's episode, we talk to Lyman about his ska roots and discuss how important ska was to The Warped Tour. We talk about the time in the 80s he toured with The Untouchables, and we discuss how he booked Fishbone in the early 80s at rented halls. We also talk about some of the lesser-known ska bands that played the festival in the 2000s, like Oreskaband, Go Jimmy Go, Westbound Train, Stacked Like Pancakes and Sonic Boom Six. We also talk about Warped Tour's most attended year, 2005, when Fall Out Boy and My Chemical Romance played as they were exploding on MTV. He tells us about the BBQ bands, and he reveals whether he knowingly allowed Jeff Rosenstock's old band, ASOB, to sneak on to Warped Tour or if he was blissfully unaware. Support the show
On our last episode of the 2021 the gang digs deep into their collective knowledge of ska/reggae holiday music. We discuss the implicit nature of this genre in our scene. Throughout the episode we play tracks from the Scotch Bonnets, Bad Manners, Toots and the Maytals, Go Jimmy Go, the Skatalites, Strange Manor and much more.
This week we talk about mustaches, alligator nails, quarantine food, and what Wil heard while watching Love is Blind. We also chat with Jason Bison Friedmann from Go Jimmy Go and learn where he got the name Bison and listen to music from: 430 Steps Mike Have-Not (V-Town and Have-Nots) Jason Bison Friedmann
