^Yeah, one of my friends found an old Toots vinyl in his attic and it's great.

The Toots are great and have been around for so long. They produced some of the earliest and greatest reggae ever.

for some reason when I listen to a Toots CD, every song sounds the same. maybe it's because they are.

I caught it just in the middle of pressure drop and almost creamed my pants, it was great. And not only did the Maytals play the earliest reggae, I'm pretty sure they actually invented (with their song, Do the Reggae). However, the actual episode of SNL totally sucked. Donald Trump blows as an actor, he looks too doufy with that hair. OMG it sucked so bad...

FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHT TO SKANK!

Emo kids don't cry because they're sad all the time, they cry because they have to listen to that horrible music all the time. I'd cry if i had to listen to that whiny music over and over and over....wouldn't you?

(I'm in a band, go to purevolume.com and check out East Coast Skank. Our recording sucks, but bear with it...)
