NS seems to be pretty enthusiastic about different types of music, what about ska? Favorite bands?
Mine is Streetlight Manifesto, for ska anyways.

Streetlight is the best ever. ...My cousin's band toured with them this year slash are friends no big deal /claim

I really like Big D too. I don't think they're really as Ska-y as the other bands posted but they're awesome I love them.

Reel Big Fish has been one of my favorite bands for MANY years.

I was at a show with Streelight, Westbound, Suburban Legends, and RBF. Awesome show, and Suburban Legends killed it that night.
