THE AQUABATS

[The_Real_Crunk]

I love these guys. Id love to see one of their live shows. They jump around pretending to fight guys like power rangers. Their music is mostly ska stuff. But good ska. Even the lead singer from Reel Big Fish is in their fanclub.

I never even knew they tried to get an actual show going. The demo of it looks awsome.

Re: THE AQUABATS

Ah yes. I was really into them years ago. I saw them play at the Crystal Ballroom over here, and it was the most super-rad concert I've ever attended. Not only did I witness several dance-offs, a crowd-boating contest using a kiddie pool and a raft (it was a tie(!)), some kitschy commercial breaks, and an awesome set, but I was in the front, and I high-fived almost every Aquabat there, inlucing the MC Bat Commander.



But I've mostly abandonded my ska obsession, and the new Aquabats album is only okay.

I love them. I love them. I love them.

I hung out with the Bat Commander after a show and Crash signed the chest of my shirt. My friend hugged the Commander's gut in a show of respect!

You know that show Yo Gabba Gabba on Nickelodeon? Well that actually is by the lead singer, MC Bat Commander AKA Christian Jacobs. You may notice that one of the characters bears a striking resemblance to Cyclopsis?


Edit: Oh, have you seen their DVD? "Joe Famous" (Aaron Barrett) interviews people coming out of the concert.
