has anyone heard anything they've done since truth & soul?

Dave - 10-16-2008 at 11:56 AM

not really i saw them once they put on a good show

BDx13 - 10-16-2008 at 12:02 PM

i saw 'em once around 1990 or 91 and it was a great show.
MUCH bigger venue than where they're playing this time around!
(Philly heads... Tower then, Dobbs now)

mattybar - 10-16-2008 at 12:36 PM

never been a huge fan of these lot on record, bit too 'wacky'.
live however, they are fucking awesome.
well, they were when i saw em a long, long time ago with bad brains and dog eat dog.
i think it was when bad brains 'rise' came out.

JawnDiablo - 10-16-2008 at 12:47 PM

I know 2 fishbone songs.
Saw them at lalapalooza...i think.
jesus, tower-dobbs.
local H plays the khyber all the time. weren't they big at some point?

clevohardcore - 10-16-2008 at 12:55 PM

I saw them at LOLLAPALOOZA. Not a fan. They did have a couple songs that were good but not my thing. I would like to see them play again though.


This show is across the street from CSU.

defstarsteve - 10-16-2008 at 01:44 PM

probably one of my most favorite bands...
I try to see them every chance I get...
black guys playing ska best thing ever...

3rdDistrict - 10-16-2008 at 02:07 PM

seen fishbone a bunch
first time was at hammerjacks in balt with NOFX and GREEN APPLE QUICK STEP openning in 94

Discipline - 10-16-2008 at 03:54 PM

I didn't know they were still around. I still think it's hilarious that they were in that Frankie & Annette movie Back to the Beach.

I LOVE THAT SONG!!

SKA SKA SKA.... JAMAICA SKA....


I saw them a few times way back in the day. I think once with the Bosstones, once with Murphys Law and at Lollapalooza. I also saw a few of them playing horns with Murphys Law as a surprise because they were both playing in Providence on the same day. That was pretty cool.

After I read this thread I had to listen to them because I had UGLY stuck in my head.

I'm going to the record store tonight and grab a cd. Whats good?

XHonusWagnerX - 10-16-2008 at 07:39 PM

I think my favorite is the self titled.

I'm pretty sure that's a cover of an old jamaican standard, if memory serves.

They've never broken up. Changed members a TON of times. Angelo had another project/side thing for a while but they're still trucking along.

Bosstones/Fishbone/Murphy's Law were all real tight back in the day and toured a lot. Angelo did Ebony and Ivory on that 3rd Murphy's Law disc.

the band photo in that LP was taken outside of Club Baby Head in Providence (which is now Club Hell)

MarkV - 10-16-2008 at 10:21 PM

Yeah, I used to go there all the time. Saw Murphy's Law there more times than I can count. DJed at Hell when I still lived out there.

3rdDistrict - 10-17-2008 at 10:55 AM

your nothing but a lyin' ass bitch!

morgan - 10-17-2008 at 11:06 AM

only album I've heard of theirs is Still Stuck in Your Throat. Not bad just have to be in a certain mood to listen to it.
