The King Blues

[the-UK-ska-scene]

They released their album last night at a gig with Tim Barry from Avail. It was well good. They're a band in London who have members from a few other bands. They're like punk/reggae/ska stuff. Yeah.

Check out this video from the party last night (Jon Fawkes from Filaments was playing bass for them):

I also took the chance to pick up the CD, it's well good, I think it's officially released on the 5th of June. Everyone should buy it :wave:

[Drop The Baby]

Sounds really good.

I think i read recently that Lars Frederiksen liked them or something.

Blindside is the song that still gets played on the radio and stuff

[<---NoFX--->]

There is talk of new material that I heard somewhere and and and apparently Adequate 7 and Captain Everything are supporting at the Bristol show!!!

the-UK-ska-scene your avatar is awesome

[the-UK-ska-scene]

Thanks man. My mate in Brizzle said it's almost certainly gonna be Captain Everything! and Sonic Boom Six, which is almost as good as Ad7 (who am I kidding Ad7 are in a league of their own).

Last time I saw Lighyear was with Captain E!, too, it was a really good night. But last year I saw Howards Alias/Captain Everything!/Adequate Seven together, can't really top that...

[Microwave meals & ideals]

Yeh it's been confirmed now, its gonna be Captain Everything! and Sonic Boom Six. Not as good as Adequate 7, but it could be worse.

Also Kenisia are supporting in Yeovil which is pretty cool.

[<---NoFX--->]

Captain Everything are buumbastic, love those guys

[Drop The Baby]

it, they're brilliant. Great songs, very funny on stage, very tight, and on top of that really nice guys

I saw the King Blues supporting TBIAPB. They were cool.
