Reel Big Fish
RBF can get away with having a number of covers in their
set because they manage to make each song sound like they wrote it and
these covers nestle against the bands own standout tracks of perfectly
written ska punk anthems like Beer and Sell Out
Watching RBF play live I know now that I will never forget hearing RBF
covering Boss DJ by Sublime in their encore, I will never
again hear that Sublime song without thinking of tonight because RBF
are so damn good, Ska lost its mainstream popularity years ago and in
a way so did RBF but this hasnt changed what they are about at
all and this is the beauty of it.
And so I left the gig thinking about how amazing it is
to see a band that inspired me as a kid still burning brightly and having
lost none of their integrity as they continue to inspire the next generation
with the songs that inspired us. http://www.myspace.com/reelbigfish
