"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

You never hear these on the radio or anywhere.
I was watchin a surfin video and they had a ska song on there so i finally remembered the genre.

The only band ive really heard in the past was this christian band called "The O.C. Supertones" ... actually ive also heard "The mighty mighty bosstones" cuz they had that one hit lol.

Anyways, i think ska is pretty cool and upbeat, but i dont know any good bands... or any bands at all for that matter. Could any of yall point me out to some?
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Less Than Jake has a ska song called Best Wishes to Your Black Lung on their Anthem CD. The funny thing is I was listening to this exact song when I saw your thread. The rest of the CD is great too so you won't be disappointed.

Listen to Reel Big Fish or Suburban Legends for kickarse upbeat ska.

Also Mad Caddies play a cool brand of punk-ska
 

"She Made Her Decision Before You Finished Your Sentence"

Three seconds. That's how long it took. Your shoes. Your posture. The way you held your drink. Whether you looked at the floor or looked at her.

She already filed you away. Interesting. Boring. Safe. Bold. Before you even opened your mouth.

Everything you say after that is just her confirming what she already decided.

So stop rehearsing lines. Fix the first three seconds. Stand tall. Look up. Smile like you mean it. Walk like you belong wherever you're standing.

The words come later. The impression comes first.

RELATED STYLES


RELATED STYLES


RELATED STYLES............ the key word is RELATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is not the style of Smash Mouth

Its saying, ok smash mouth is so and so tsyle ( rock or w/e) ... and there are styles related to rock like classic rock, punk rock, ska rock, etc...

besides the fact that you just proved yourself wrong, trust me, SMASH MOUTh is NOT ska.

i dont hear any offbeat strumming, trumpets,trombones, along with the regular band parts such as distorted electric guitar

Most of the popular bands out there considered "ska" are really more punk/ska, or whatever. I would not consider Smash Mouth real ska.

Good ska bands are bands like Hepcat or The Slackers. Now that's ska.
