And I'm sure we can randomly get The Verbs together with someone to play a show. And there's always The Hotsteppers at the Dinosaur BBQ (man, I LOVE the music they get there.)

Then I'm sure more random local shows will come up in addition to all the national acts that I'm getting out to see. Not to mention I want to play at least a few more shows this summer if I can.

But yeah dudes, if any of you want to go to any of these shows, just let me know and maybe we can work something out. Having company is always a fun thing.

well i meant ska shows, and there arent any more posted on the ska site

and scranton PA and buffalo arent syracuse lol

Don't worry about. There will be shows. Danny's shows in Syracuse tend to be posted a month or less before they happen. As soon as bands and venue are confirmed you will get more information.

Meh. There's more to life than ska. I'm into all different types of music, and as such I always have some type of show to get out to.

Besides, don't you live in Liverpool with Steph and all them? Syracuse is kind of a drive for your parents, isn't it?

well i live in the village so its a lot closer to syracuse than were steph lives

Oh, see that makes a lot more sense now. Yeah, I was thinking that your parents must be some pretty cool people to drive you the 40 minutes here then all the way back late at night for shows..

LOL, Johanna knows me too well. I'm getting asked to do The Know How again in late July. Any interest???

I'd go if you put it in Rochester instead of Syracuse

Mike, I will personally drive out there, pick you up, and bring you to the show if you want to go. Heck, you can even stay at my place that night if your parents will let you, my rents are totally cool with me having people over after shows.

I'm sure they'd love to play Rochester if someone will help set it up. I'm not currently in the position to do that, though thanks for the offer.

You should bring them in August, because I won't be in San Diego then

Take me with you to San Diego and maybe I'll consider it.

i'll be there if you get the know how there.

The Know How is playing on Long Island July 24th with:

Bomb the Music Industry!
I Voted For Kodos
Jay Tea (the one from ASOB doing his solo thing)


If you get TKH, IV4K, JT, and BTMI up in 'Cuse it would make my life and I could stop trying to figure out how to get home for that show. Goddamn Sunday night shows on LI and having 9AM monday class in Ithaca. ugh ugh ugh.

Hahaha. You're too funny.
