Our band, Uncle Frank Says No!, had the opportunity to play up at Fright Fest this past Saturday, so why not as Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem (well, most of them!) and some muppet additions! Had a blast of a time, and it was great to see all of the park goers who stopped by enjoying our music!

I was listening to French radio today and came across this banger that I think this community would appreciate

Given the time of year, I think this song is appropriate; to be honest, it’s one of their best, even if it is famous.

WNC ska band, Heavy Lifters, play this Saturday at a great little venue called 185 King St. calling all rudies in the Western North Carolina mountains!! Long shot, but figured I’d put it out there.

Hi all, I've got what is hopefully not too weird, obscure a request (but I'm not super sanguine given I've had zero luck tracking this down). Back when I was teenager in the early aughts, there was a French skinhead ska band I absolutely adored called the Explorers (later, from what I can tell, when by Explorersz and even Eksplorersz to keep from being mixed up with the prog rock band). I had their first album, Fight, and the Ten Commandments EP - I don't even remember how the shit I got these in the States, just something I got from a friend of a friend of a friend and fell in love with. Both of those discs went missing when someone stole my CD binder from a jobsite years later, and I've never been able to find them any of their music again. What little internet presence they had in the aughts has mostly disappeared like so much internet ephemera, they have nothing on streaming services like Spotify, and if I ever do see one of their CDs for sale, it's always somewhere in Europe; I've never seen a copy pop up in the US since the aughts. If anyone knew where I could get my hands on a copy of any of their releases, they'd be my absolute hero; I've been going through old music and finding myself bummed yet again at the loss.
