yep i love catch 22 as well... i dont understand all the sub genres its all a pain in the bum really. im only really into Reel Big Fish and catch 22 and area 7 because i dont know many people into ska and i dont make much of an effort to go out and buy newcds. lol There is also a melbourne band called Sounds like chicken, Theyre reggae/ska and have a bit of a pirate theme i guess. They're effing great!!
