I've never seen the dwarves and think the Fest would be a good first time.

As far as the bosstones, i agree about growing out of ska but damn are they one great party band.

Am i the only one who wants to see the bosstones?


The Dwarves really would be pointless for the Fest if they are still doing shows like when I saw them in the early 90s. The set didn't even last a minute before they destroyed everything in sight. Total hype/shock appeal live. But maybe they have changed?

I suggest the The Jesus Lizard instead.

I loved the Bosstones back then too, but have honestly no interest in seeing them now. I grew out of ska in like 1994. Though as I remember, they put on one hell of a live show!


The Bosstones are one of my all time favorite bands, cause I used to be a total ska-kid in high school. I saw them recently on their first bout of reunion shows in Chicago, and I have to say that I remember them being a whole lot better live when I saw them back in like 99 and 2000...

read on punknews.org today a statement from ben weasel, they reformed recently and said they are only playing a few shows in 2009, 2 in the fall, which will be announced later

that says to me they're not a bad bet for Fest 8 weekend

1. i just read that they are in fact playing austin or something over the summer. it's tempting to go to that. if it was the original SW, i would do it in a second. but holy shit fuck yeah if they play the Fest. i will wait in that venue all day long to be in the front. i will suck ben weasel's dick.

2. i've never met anybody that doesn't like strung out. never. i will suck the collective dick of strung out. i could see them not being a good fit with the Fest and all, though.

sawtooth's pics for Fest 8:

screeching weasel
suicide note
cold world
strung out
farside reunion lol

Superchunk.

Their new EP is really awesome, short and sweet. Plus, they finally released the song from the ATHF Movie.
