I decided to make a thread honoring The Specials. They are truly a great band. I think they really help bring on the third wave. ::Listens to Gangsters::

I agree, they have been one of my fave bands since I was about 6 or something stupid like that! hurrah to having found someone else who appreciates them (other than my mum!) biggrin Its not just that they're ska either, cos they have such a range of music- Ghost Town could not be more different from Enjoy Yourself, for example

No idea, I don't buy cd's! Anyway, the place I go for DDR is called swingtime, I went there last week and then walked down the highway with my bro to the pool hall for some billards.
