You should check out some REAL ska, like the Toasters, the Specials, Skatalites, Slackers... because everyone needs some real ska in their lives! (I like the bands you named too, don't get me wrong..)

That would be awesome, like just toe stalls back and forth. I might have to try that sometime, I think the timing would be the hardest part...

The bands you mentioned aren't any more real ska than Five Iron Frenzy, Streetlight Manifesto, Mighty Mighty Bosstones, and Mad Caddies (Not mattering if you listen to them or not).

its because normally, normal ppl dont have any idea of the legs are doing ... just by doing clipper > clipper > rpt x 30583085843, the "crowd" ( between 1 and 5 person ) always think you dance ...

and since OUR bags are golfball size or smaller and THEIR bags are tennis ball size, they cant follow it

and for skanking, it doesnt look stupid ... if you arent alone hehe
