The Slackers Perform Live at Rolling Stone Studios

[@witchfingergeneral]

They've been killing it for over 30 years, shit is insane.

[@eddiemosssax]

The best ska soul rocksteady combo to ever come out of the USA ❤️

[@maxczapski2239]

No doubt. Best gig I've ever been to, and I went to hundreds of them.

[@padgloor]

word. saw them 12 times in switzerland and 1time in spain the last 20yrs....fck legends ❤

[@stephenhayko5317]

I remember fall of 1996 hearing "Sarah," on "This are Moon Ska 2," that a friend at my college radio station gave me and I was hooked. I picked up "Better late than never," and went to see them at a dive bar in the beginning of 1997. I've been a fan since.

[@mmdehnmm]

I was also there during the red light tour I have been a fan ever since... I've always felt that Vic was such an underrated musician.

[@billanderson2763]

Discovered em in 97 from the Give em the boot album. Man I miss great music like this.

[@TheReturnofEddie]

Finally Rolling Stones Playing Good Music 🖤

[@criswebber04]

Wife and I saw them in December 2021 in Sacramento. Great show! I hadn't seen them live in about 15 years, when they opened for Rancid at the Warfield, and they're even better live than I remember.

[@maxczapski2239]

This guys are out of this world. Long live The Slackers.

[@TXN85]

Love these guys! I've had the pleasure of meeting them and even had some drinks together! Vic is the nicest man you could hope to meet!

[@surfsexsea]

Just saw them today at the Getty 25 celebration in flipping Wilmington and they’re better than when I saw them the first time 22 years ago at Chain Rxn in Anaheim!

[@FrodoRamirez]

Miss them in live act here in my city!

[@odemu2074]

Saw em in a small venue man they were jamming then they were all chilling with the fans out on this balcony Vic was at the bar I was stoked!

[@samteks125]

Man, it's gonna be three years since I last saw them in fall, I really hope their next gig here in Munich will take place, I'm in serious withdrawal!

[@robloxmamaw4266]

[@bobert6523]

Rename it the Slackers magazine.

[@jmeara9912]

Vic is going to wind up a legend.

[@MistaMahoney]

going to? he already is one

[@fattdamon5342]

Personal opinion, sound mix needs more treble to bring out the brightness of the horns/vox. Great presentation and talent, amazing band 🎉

[@thomasfredjackson1115]

🎷🦖

[@rudeboyjohn3483]

Real ska for real rudeboys!

[@booger075]

I love this band but this video sounds like it was recorded with a potato. Rolling stone sucks and should just let KEXP give us good sounding shows.

[@MattsYoutubeChannel]

Their best work was all before 2010. I've said it before, I'll say it again. Their first 4 albums were really original, stuff you could listen to again and again. The rest since then, this set included, has been almost completely forgettable junk I can't imagine ever wanting to hear again (except for Married Girl from the 1997 album Redlight). Also, it's pretty dumb of Vic to describe the third tune in the set as a "rocksteady" rhythm, when it's nothing of the sort. That's reggae, the pace is way too slow for rocksteady. Vic knows better, I don't know why he'd say that.

[@bryanimal2272]

Do you even Slack, bro?

[@MattsYoutubeChannel]

@@bryanimal2272 I bought my first CD of theirs in 2003.

[@dougandreano8869]

Thanks for your expertise on all that

[@elyseconnolly2804]

Junky man tell me what your story is
