What's up y'all?!? I had some time (finally...) and decided to get something off my chest as a segway to more frequent usage of my beloved Bakotopia.com.... Ska is NOT exclusively for Grad-Nite patrons. Ska is NOT about choreography and being a total douche.... it is about unity and brotherhood (well at least to me...) and it means more to me than just a genre of music....watch this video and educate yourselves a bit on where ska was and where it will hopeully. Much love and respect to all of you...

SKA sure isn't dead in Bakersfield. Look at all the fans Mento Buru plays to... They definitely sounded a bit like Madness years ago, but then evolved into a Latino Ska-kersfield band... :) Comment From: twinkie

Ska-kersfield... You're a great word-maker-upper, N.L. Ska-kersfield and Rural Rock Punk.... I love it. (or as I say it because my little Mexican tongue can't handle so many "r's" Ru-roh rock punk.. Comment From: likhy2
