Thanks to all the bands we’ve played with, but mostly to the legion of fans for keeping it real. Support your local ska crew! No thanks to the sell-outs, you know who you are. Thanks to Moon for having the balls to do what they do. Special thanks to: Sara Vale at Tahoe for her constant efforts on our behalf. Hats off to Jack Kontney at Shure Bros., Kangol, Mojo Guitars (NYC), Promark. Thanks to Norm 930 for letting us watch the fireworks off his roof. Alex Montalvo RIP.
The Toasters would like to thank individually and collectively all those who have helped us through the last fifteen years and 2500 shows. We’ve driven a million miles for one of your smiles. Things haven’t been easy, but when times were tough, there were always the fans to dust us off and help us get up off the canvas for our standing eight count. That’s why we never threw in the towel. Ska music will never die, as it lives in the hearts of the fans and not in the bank accounts of the major labels.
