Now that the cult of emo is apparently beginning to show signs of disintegrating perhaps as its fans enter high school and discover the Smiths? what genre's next in line for resurrection? Why, this writer believes it's ska, of course! The fifth installment of the area's skanking-heavy event (appropriately called
Ska Fest V) features locals Disturbing Lou and BAMF, along with out-of-towners the Hoodlums, 80HD and the Rum Runners. Find out more information at the fest's official Web site,
