that's fine, but i still wish they'd change their setlist more often

i wish i could see them enough to be complaining about their setlist.

I like the animal. Will I like the song?

I don't know why, but I found this comment hilarious.

I do not understand what I just saw.

This and that Slow Gherkin comp (damn it's good) seem to be insisting I get back into ska

Always a fun live band.

I smell an MTV video award.

They still give those out, right?

Two thoughts:

A) Sequel to the manta ray dance?
B) Obviously I've taken the wrong acid tonight.

It astounds me that a half dozen grown men who aren't responsible for Yo Gabba Gabba! would stand together in a room and agree about the artistic direction of this song.

TheTrueCost (August 20, 2011)

pretty much

moistphily (August 20, 2011)

I like this band but this song is just dumb. It's like something you'd hear at a 5 year old's birthday party when it's time for the 'activities'.

Nailed it

RobGoesToCollege (August 20, 2011)

as "fun" as this band may be, I can now fully understand and appreciate why people hate ska. If I didn't know ska, and somebody showed me this song I know i would hate it...
