Gadfly - San Diego Ska

Posted over 4 years ago
Due to my recent nostalgia kick for late-'90s third wave ska, I decided to do a little research and try to find out if there are any decent ska bands around today.
I'm new to the San Diego area, having recently relocated from the east coast, so I started by looking for local ska. My first search led me to this band:
If you're in the San Diego area and want to see them live, they are playing at Winstons in Ocean Beach on Nov. 7

  1. Bartleby says That's a pretty cool tune... Why would people want to flush it down??? Anyway, your post made me wish I were in SoCal right now. Ah, that California dreaming of mine also got me into nostalgic mode. Here's something to share with other 2-tone/Ska enthusiasts (myself not excluded):

  2. spazzzz says Thanks Bartleby - love the Specials! That song, along with "Pressure Drop" (popularized by the Clash) are covers of a great Reggae-soul-funk band, Toots and the Maytals, who are still around and touring - coincidentally they will be in San Diego sometime soon. Also, Gadfly will be playing a show Nov 20-something with none other than 2-tone legends The English Beat (or as I believe they are known in the UK as The Beat)
