The Slackers - Live at Wetlands

This is from a Moon Ska showcase back in '96. The other bands on that show were The Peacocks (from Switzerland), Step Lively (Long Island), and The Skeletones (CA).

The Slackers' set included songs from their first CD, but they also played stuff from other albums that would not be recorded until much later. This was taped on Sunday October 13, 1996. (The Question came out in 1998, and David Hillyard's Playtime was released in 1999.)

Here's the playlist:

1. Hillyard St. (David Hillyard & The Rocksteady Seven)
2. Tonight (from Better Late Than Never)
3. P***philia (from Better Late Than Never)
4. Keep Him Away (from The Question)
5. Cooking for Tommy (from Redlight)

Enjoy and please comment!

Whats that instrument Marquis is playing?

[donsegundo]

@dvdpz You can see Marq playing the claves on "Hillyard St." On "Keep Him Away" he is playing a tambourine, which you can hear, but is covered by the audience in front.
