Visual confirmation that SPI has the Ripe LP We get that patience has worn thin, the records appear to be on the way. We're doing all we can on our end to ensure the records get to you and apologize that this has become an issue. This label went the distance to ensure that fans got a deluxe version

Yea, do I walk through the valley, and the shadow of corruption I will fear no evil, cos thou art with me Thy rod and thy staff, will comfort me.

The many members of Skavoovie consist of visual artists and art school drop outs. If we see your band using AI art we will block you. The creative process is savagely vaporized but the use of it.

Anyone want to meet up at Skavoovie in June?

See you in New Haven CT, at Cafe 9 on 6/21 with The Agonizers & Riki Rocksteady for our first CT show in 25 years! (and it's all thanks to @ctska.com) #ska #punk #skapunk #reggae #jazz #conneticut #flyer

Along with boycotting many corporations and continuing to put pressure on representatives (and gardening because SPRING!), I’ve got a rack of shows coming up. PHILLY! This one’s for you, in TWO WEEKS, with my brothers in arms @theslackersband.bsky.social . Join us, in community and joy! ✊🏁❤️

Much shenanigans occurred last year when I did my book event at Scottish Dave's pub in Clinton, CT. I also got a nice audio recording of the event. It's up on the In Defense of Ska Patreon right now if you'd like to listen. Sign up to the IDOS Patreon to listen (Link in bio)

Excited to see @dropkickmurphys.com join @bsky.app Make sure to follow those cool cats. #dropkickmurphys #boston #skavoovie #mephiskapheles #amazingroyalcrowns

Saw these guys perform many times in the 90s... and never knew they had their very own schoolbus. Anyway, these guys reformed for a reunion show last year at Supernova and the whole thing is on YouTube and it's amazing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=exV6...

After our shuttle bus died, which Bucket told us not to buy, we did the research and saved up ($5000) for an International DT-466 bus.

Happy 91st birthday Don Drummond. My blog post on skabook.com from a few years back, presents his birth certificate and celebrates the music of this legend. Have a read and listen to his music today, and every day! What’s your favorite Don Drummond tune? One of mine is Cleopatra #ska #jazz #Jamaica

😄 Ok I’ll admit I saw you guys more than once!

Fans, we have a dilemma. Looks like we will be playing a show in NYC in June. (Details forthcoming) We need an incredible band of kindred musicianeers to help us fill the place and tear it down. Any ideas? Let us know who you'd like to see join us #ska #skavoovieandtheepitones #nycska #nyc

Joe, Rob & Eric chilling in the parking lot at Graceland. The security guards heard us playing & suggested we go to Beale St. We found an open mic (blues) night, & played a quick set. BB King's house band came over from across the way to watch it all. #skavoovie #skavoovieandtheepitones #elvis

The bouncer, possibly unaccustomed to the size of ska bands, threatened to go get his gun if we didn't stop loading in. w/ #MU330 & Amazing Royal Crowns #BOSTONSKA #SKA #BOSTON #ROYALCROWNS
