I saw a ska band on Saturday night called Los Furios because a friend had an extra ticket. They were alright, but the venue and the setup was just really weird. It was this weird mixture of birthday party and punk show, but in an old jazz dancehall. At first there was a DJ playing latin dance music, then ended with "Paint It Black" and the studio recording of "Stairway to Heaven", and then gave way to a really generic sounding stoner rock band that just bored me to tears. Los Furios definitely have some good energy to them, but they're not going to be the band to get me into ska.
