Unfortunately, in my almost 3rd World Country, No one knows of Ska...well a few people do, and the ones that do Like it.

Most of my friends hate it....so in turn - I hate them.

Ska = God

Yeah most of the group I hang out with Like ska, so All's good. Unfortunately I live near an area where 3/4 of the population think a dance beat and some synth is music, and everything else is "Fookin' shi' lads" to quote.

''No real differnece in haters and fans. ''

Because my friends usually have the same music taste, so they are a comprimise to the people I have contact with through daily life, without wanting to.

most of my friends are indifferent towards ska, mostly because they haven't heard much, if any of it. the little that ive heard, however, ive thoroughly enjoyed. i wish ska was more popular, it can be a blast to listen to. im mostly a rock guy, but a good ska band is like nothing else in music (in a good way)

Hey hey, whats wrong with Saves The Day? Seriously, they're way better then Rufio.

Both Saves the Day and Rufio are worth a listen. Some of the best Ska bands never got what the rightfully deserved. Maphescalies (sp?), Catch 22, 10 Minutes Down (we worked with them on Warped). And yes, it is the happiest music out there. Its the best of both worlds to some: rock and jazz... but then there is always the reggae twist. It comes in waves, and the tide is changing I think.

Ska live is enjoyable. Ska otherwise causes allergic reactions in my ears. I'll agree its happy and energetic, but, unless it's at a live gig and I'm there more for the atmosphere and the likes, I don't listen to it.

(And both Saves The Day and Rufio are kickass.)
