rude boys back in town well done to the specials for reforming saw them in concert in may it was blinding lets bring back the old style music of ska! laurel aitken and prince buster are kings! Hello to Germany mr skinhead ska man here from England!
We saw him about 8 years ago, in new orleans...and it was fantastic...but this is really sad to see. He should not be performing, the band are doing it all, he is just a sad shadow of his former wonderfull self. The people are only into it coz they spent 20 pound on the ticket and need to feel they got their money's worth. That being said, I wish him the best and he is still the godfather of ska!!!!
Dear Rabby, This was Laurel's last ever show. Laurel was desperate to do this gig and make this film even though he was very ill. Laurel did the show as a thank you to Club Ska and his fans who the year before put on a benefit gig for him when he was very ill and to which Prince Buster, Dennis Alcapone, Winston Francis, U-Brown and many more came and performed. Laurel died in 2005 - 6 months after this last show. The Godfather of Ska lives on in our hearts. Geno Blue - Club Ska, London.
Sad is not the feeling that crosses my mind when I see did, instead makes me remember the great and pasionated person He was... love for music like this... strong!!!
it is silly!but these people aren't skins.they copy the style but not the thinking of the traditional skinheads.i was once on an aitken concert and there was a white skin dancing on a table with his colored girlfriend.but pictures like that u would never see on the news because this is not what the people want to see :(
i have seen the english-wiki-comment on skinheads. it is not good, i believe the german one is better, there is much more about rash, sharp and oi, less about styling, also some socio-schientific background. i tried also the french one, but learned, that it is hard to understand a language, which one last had at school 15 years ago and was bad in it^^
ska und reggae ist musik der schwarzen und da sieht man irgendwelche tätowierten weissen skinheads vor der bühne herumhopsen,,,einfach unglaublich,,,und morgen werden wieder irgendwelche schwarze vor der bushaltestelle halbtotgeschlagen von den selben leuten!!!
must play again and again.....

very easy :)
the original skinheads wasn´t rassists.
it was them who make ska at first real popular.
if u like to have more informations about skins just look it up at wikipedia ;)

madstone187 3 years ago 3
thank U very mmuch! I've allready looked it up, but there were no words about that skinheads were not rasist. That's why it made me confused.
Than why do modern skins hate people with derk skin? Isn't it silly?
immortalyoghurt 3 years ago 2
it is silly!but these people aren't skins.they copy the style but not the thinking of the traditional skinheads.i was once on an aitken concert and there was a white skin dancing on a table with his colored girlfriend.but pictures like that u would never see on the news because this is not what the people want to see :(
madstone187 3 years ago 4
just call the racists boneheads, they got no place for a in brain inside their skulls,
i think the most new bonehads don't really know about the roots of the scene
eckie77 3 years ago 3
totaly agree! but the media always call them skinheads and this is something that really makes me angy! ;)

eckie77 3 years ago
true...i have looked in the german wiki^^
maybe it is that way because germany have so many boneheads :(.
but i keep on fighting against this way to discriminate the skinhead way of life!
and french was my school subject as well^^
