The venue was full of aging mods and skinheads in Fred Perry and Doc Martins all expecting a set of two tone and ska. Hall was completely oblivious to the crowd and just played loads of shite 90s chart music like Groove is in the Heart and Here Comes The Hotstepper. It was both embarrassing and hilarious at the same time. The ska crowd were fucking fuming. Speaking of Dundee, here's the city's greatest reggae band... No self awareness, that's their issue. Jobson sang a five minute a capella version of "Waltzing Matilda". Seriously... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspect Device Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) Enjoyed Stone Valley North festival at the weekend but it was definitely the oldest average aged crowd I have ever been in. Made me feel young. And slim. Edited August 10, 2022 by Suspect Device 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vale Vale Vale Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Just found this never realised there was a ska/punk section on here. Are Root System still kicking about? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a belting song. It was indeed! 3 and 4 had some cracking tunes on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember 3 having a cracking front end run, NOFX, the dwarves, bouncing souls, all and voodoo glow skulls. I've covered "say anything" by the bouncing souls at every punk gig I've played since about 1998 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to hate most of this sound but there's a punk station on my satellite radio and it plays them. I'm getting more into it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this. The quality control filter will twitch a lot with late 90s/early 00s "skate punk" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyAnchor Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I recently read the Bad Religion book, We do what we want that was enjoyable. Some great Epitaph history obviously too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
