2 tone ska is about the greatest argument for promoting and embracing immigration and integration that I have ever come across. Racial, cultural, ethnic, integration always seems to produce mind-bogglingly good and creative results, food, art, ideas. The kind nobody can even predict or imagine.

I'll never forget being introduced to Ska in 8th grade. This girl had Ska written on her notebook. I asked " what is skuh " she laughed said Ska and handed me her Walkman cassette player with an English Beat song playing. I still listen to a lot of Ska and i'm 50 years young. Ska !!!

Whoah - ok no joke. I also am 50 - AND I was introduced to Ska in Gr 8. I went to a Boarding school, one of the "old boys" he was a grad (school only went to gr10) came to visit the school. He had a jacket covered with 2 tone band patches and one badge said "SKA". I asked him what "ess kay ay" (pronouncing it by letter hahahaha) was. He explained it was a style of music, "uptempo reggae". I already liked reggae. The first 2Tone I listened to was I Just Cant Stop it the guy leant me an english beat tape. I eventually worked backward to the original jamaican stuff but 2 Tone still rules. Cheers to 42 years of Ska fandom!

I grew up in SoCal and a cholo taught me how to skank at a yard show when I was in my teens. There’s never been another place that I’ve felt so accepted than in the ska community. They really just accepted anyone who wanted to be part of it, and I made lifelong friends going to those shows

I feel like modern Japanese ska is sort of the next evolution of the genre. Bands like Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra, Cool Wise Men, The Miceteeth, Beat Sunset etc. It seems that Japanese ska has a strong jazz influence but other genres too, and yet it still has an old school kind of sound somehow. Ska hasn't developed much in the West over the last 15 years, at least for now.

Saw Madness a few months back. Still love all those 2nd wave English bands. Thanks 2 Tone!

I remember meeting Roger Ranking and smoking my first joint with his bassist loool. Golden memories I will never forget.

Kids man, fighting for our right to live and love and be with our friends, fighting gangers and goose steppers - Heavy crip lifestyle there, but dirty south ideals. Ska got the punks and they came to us like, hey man, lets get together and make a space we can survive in. Kids stop seeing colour when their parents are struggling together, too. We all had it. I rep oakcliff every day, but not the anarchy so much as the unity. people fighting to work together.

Check out the Dutch ska band Doe Maar who were part of the second wave of Ska, they had songs with political content such as "De Bom" (The Bomb) about the atomic scare of the cold war. Or "Rumah Sajah"(My home) which is about indonesean people living in the netherlands having a tough time adapting. (Doe Maar vocalist and keyboard player Ernst janzs is from Indonesian heritage But also "Nachtmerrie op hol" (Nightmare on the loose) amd "Dansen met Alice" (Dancing with Alice) where they put themselves on one par with those English bands but never broke big outside the Netherlands or Belgium because of their choice to sing in Dutch.

I was introduced to Ska by a friend of mine when I was in 9th grade (better called as 3ème in France) in 1994. My friend gave me a K7 of a french Ska group called Skarface and since, I've learned what the Ska community is and discovered lots of bands. Awesome music. Peace from France.

I loved it when musicians made depressing songs with upbeat and bouncy sounding music to back it up. I believe that catches more attention than being one dimensional in terms of mood. A lot of 2 Tone sound similar, but it's always fun.
