I like the toasters and the skatalites. I don't really have a way of getting introduced to bands other then that. I'll check out some of the bands people have listed.

If you like The toasters and the skatalites I would recomend Some of the more popular hellcat bands I.e. Slackers, hepcat, Pietasters. Deffinetly check out Close my eyes by the slackers you wont be dissapointed. Some other bands like that you may like Chris Murray, 2 1/2 white guys, eastern standard time, westbound train. As for bands like the toasters I would recomend Madness, the specials, The english beat, volcanoes, King Django, Skinnerbox, bad manners, laurel aitken.

Hepcat are a bunch of way cool guys, especially the keyboardist (cant remember his name, its been awhile and i totally forgot playing that show till i saw this post) and I love the pietasters, and blue meanies. All 3 of these bands put on an awesome show and get the crowd skankin'. (hey what about skankin' pickle?)

Least they got horns in most of their stuff Less Than Jake's anethem is half punk nad half ska she's gonna break soon etc...

Acctualy almost no Suicide Machines songs have horns in them, honestly at the risk of sounding like a fool I cant think of one that does. maybe something off of Destruction by Deffinition.

But just because a band has horns or dosnt dosnt mean they play ska or not. Nothing more than a guitar is really needed to play ska as illustrated by Chris Murray who I cant get enough of. MOst bands are just rock or punk with horns, not ska at all. I saw this terrible band the other day called urizen. There lead singer was like 200 lbs over weight and all of there songs were about chicks. They baisically played metal with a 4 piece horn section. the whole thing was a terrible crappy gimic. Then when it was all done I got to listen to everyone talk about how "ska" they were. it depressed me. The when a good band played (Umbrella Bed from MN) they left. Whatever...
