Awesome! Who else is playing? I want to start a ska band, just to play shows when the Bishops come to town.

Fuck that, I'm thrilled there's not an opening act.


$5, Jordan. It's five fucking dollars. You can pay $5 for someone to entertain you for an hour.

Well, I also have to drive down and back from Ames, plus, when you are in one of the opening bands on a fairly regular basis, you forget how much paying for shows sucks. I'll go anyways.

I'm under the impression they are going to do 2 sets. They might stretch it out to 2 hours.

I think that's more or less what they did last time they played here. One set of their material and then one set of covers - which was really sweet.

Yea....they did a great cover of Dandy Livingstone's "A Message to You, Rudy." Right on key. It would be even better if they did "Skinhead, a message to you" by Desmond Riley.
