You aren’t familiar with ska?
Yes, I do. :-)
Not that I know of by that title. LOL!
My friend Darlene had a Vespa scooter in the day, called “Budgie”
That thing would d 75 with 2 on it

Very good! Glad he behaved so you could get the med on. I hope it does its job.
Our temps won’t plummet but they’ll drop a bit next Monday. We’ll have highs in the upper 40s and low 50s next week and that’s not too bad.
We hope to get the rain they predict for Monday. We need it to wash all the salt off the roads. They put down too much brine this week. Now it’s dried and the salt dust gets kicked into the air by cars driving over it and it’s killing our sinuses and lungs. NASTY stuff!
Rough week for sure...and next week is shaping up to be the same. I’ve already fallen asleep twice tonight. LOL! And no alarms for the next 2 mornings.
Have you played any of the tunes?
Ska is basically fast reggae. Back in the days when my back was still in good shape, I loved to dance the night away to ska. Fun stuff!
Oh no! What are they going to do to y’all next week???!!!!
Better take it easy and do NOTING this weekend so you’ll be rested up.
My hubby had one when we lived in GA when he was in the AF. When I started working, we needed 2 vehicles and the Vespa was cheap to run.
I did, and they were very danceable, but I had no idea what it was called. I wouldn’t know HOW to dance to it, though. LOL!
I have this original LP by Tx Guitarist Larry Coryell
And have seen Stevie Ray, but I only recently realized that Coryell Taught Stevie all his riffs before Stevie was born

Yuk...all that salt! I hope you get rain and us, too.
I did nag hubby into watering, but he started too late and didn’t get much done. He’ll do it tomorrow. He’d better. LOL!
The City of New Orleans...a fav no matter who sings it. Willie does it well. d:o)
NOTING???
NOTING = NOTHING.
Gotta pay attention. *sigh*
The owl is on the Montana nest right now. WooHoooooo!
Now you know what it’s called. :-)
There were several ska bands that played in the clubs in Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, NC and I loved to go out to hear them.
As for how to dance to it, in a couple of the videos you can see the musicians dancing as they play and that’s pretty much how you dance to it.
Guess I need to watch more to see how to dance it. :)
Not that I’ll ever actually DO it. That’s a hard workout. LOL!
