What's your favorite ska bands to play to? Mine would personally be catch 22, since each instrument (in most of their songs) play their own part.

I love trying to play along to The Planet Smashers and the specials, the former cuz the bone parts are damn cool, and the latter cuz its generally pretty easy and mellow.

i play stuff from all waves of Ska, lately i've been leaning more towards the 3rd wave stuff, just because it sounds really cool (Reel Big Fish, Suburban Legends, Less Than Jake) but bands like Planet Smashers, Toasters, Big D, Specials, and Bosstones are always fun to play.

Trombonist dave how long have you been playing trombone for because you sound like your really good, actually nearly everyone on this forum sounds good. I think I am the only terrible one here.

I play for 11 years now. But I don't play ska for very long. I play in our local music club, and I had an eye on ska for a long time, but I play ska for 2 or 3 months now.

I personally like to play to the mad caddies, also less than jake. The Bosstones are very good, too.
