Amy Winehouse Loves The Specials
Amy blew me away when she played this cover of "Hey Little Rich Girl" back at the Virgin Festival a few weeks ago. Here's the studio version (?) that someone set to a cheesy slide show.

Members - Offshore Banking Business
From "Urgh! a Music War"
Before the Bad Brains, before the Police & even before the Specials, the Members were playing punk & reggae to stump the masses. I've loved the Members for many many years, but this is the first time I've seen video footage of them...wait... I take that back, I've actually watched, "Urgh! a Music War" when I was a little kid, but back then the only thing that mattered to me was the Oingo Boingo footage.
Rico Rodriguez guests on the album version of, "Offshore Banking Business". I love it.

Is It Too Late Now?
I just found out that Brandon Smith (of the Upstarts) is currently producing a documentary on Utah Ska entitled "Is It Too Late Now?". He asked me to possibly interview and I'm honored and excited for a project like this. Of course the Utah Ska Scene of the 90's is something that's dear to my heart and I think there was something about it that was very special. I'm excited to see how this comes out.
Check out the production blog.

Jacobs Family Reunion
So last week I flew to Utah for the Jacobs family reunion. This is how I was greeted at the airport.
That’s my Dad, me, my step nephew Sid and Tyler. Guess the real moustache.
