Not what I planned exactly but Royal City Riot is good, a little more poppy to me.
Vocals are eh though.

We don't get any credit for the Slackers or even Deal's Gone Bad on Skalloween!?!?

Wow. Talk about a tough customer. :rambo:

I meant some new bands that aren't necessarily playing here. I don't want to look for new ones. Just give them to me. At least names.

See what you think of these guys: http://www.myspace.com/bigtakeover

I'd recommend "Shake It Like That". I just got their album in the mail and I'm liking it.

I got your back, bro.

Hepcat (kinda obvious)
http://www.myspace.com/hepcatlive

The Aggrolites (kinda obvious)
http://www.myspace.com/theaggrolites

Green Room Rockers (AWESOME up-and-coming band. Some recordings aren't the best, but they're GREAT live. Definitely like the three bands you listed)
http://www.myspace.com/greenroomrockers

The Debonaires (different vocal style but really awesome soulful, jazzy, funky reggae/ska)
http://www.myspace.com/thedebonaires

Heavy Step (Todd from DGB's old band. Their full length, produced by Vic Ruggiero, is really good)
http://www.myspace.com/heavystep

Yeah, Matt Turner helped turn me onto them. Any chance they might ever tour into the Northeast?

Hahaha. We know both bands very well here. I think they've played here about as much as in Florida, which is really saying something, given the distance. :thumbup:

If they can ever get their line-up straightened out, I can't even get them up to Tallahassee!

Oh yeah, I forgot they were just up there on the Community Records tour. We'll get up there again as soon as we can though!

The Brentford Sound have been doing a lot of Florida touring lately, and are supposed to have a new full-length CD coming out within the next 3 or 4 months. I wouldn't be surprised if they decide to start touring the country within a year.
