[QUOTE=Cassel;27364873]High five!
I've been trying to find a band to jam with for about two years now, but there is only quartets of horn players that are looking for a guitars/percussions/vocals.[/QUOTE]
Horn bands are a pain in the ass for me, pure and simple. My friend Paul tried to start one? Boring as hell.
I got the "Somewhere In The Between" album by Streetlight Manifesto a few weeks ago. I love it.

Streetlight is my absolute favorite band ever. I have seen them four times in concert, as well. :D
Their concerts are always, always epic. Like, truly epic.

No, they're just awesome. But I don't think they feature brass in many of their songs, so i would say no.
Them there Aquabats are AWESOME. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEQitya7uWM[/media]
Ska heroes of our generation *salute*
A quick nod to Catch 22 with one of my favorite Ska songs ever from one of my favorite Ska albums ever; Keasbey Nights. Eventually Tomas Kalnoky from Catch 22 rerecorded the entire album with his new band, Streetlight Manifesto

Streetlight Manifesto is legit as fuck. They're coming to AZ on February 28th, during which I will not be in the damned state (fffffffff)
Their cover album is awesome. Ever heard that song Such Great Heights by the Postal Service? Yeah, well Brass > Keys now.

40oz to Freedom and the Jah Won't Pay the Bills demo could easily be classified as Ska, at least to me.

The English Beat is amazing, they've made some great songs, saw them live a few years ago as well.
Anyone been listening to The Aquabats latest album? I've just recently got it, only a few songs into it atm but it seems great so far.
