I know, I agree with you. We have been looking for all ages shows in Fresno for the longest time, but since they are few and far between, this is all we can get for now.

this is the original jamaican band that created ska, the grandfather of reggae music. many of the original members have passed on, but it is indeed the original bassist, drummer and one saxaphonist. it is definately worth going to, you may not ever have another chance to see these legends perform
