Why this name?
In the early days of the band, a few members ago, we were called Stick It To The Man and we played metal. Long story short, creative differences caused the fissure of Stick It to The Man into a no named band, who liked to play ska. Some new members came along and still no name. John Depenbrock dropped the idea one day and it stuck.

Equipment used:
Jack plays a guitar with a pro-Rat distortion pedal into a Peavey tube combo amp and also plays around with his shiny trigger trombone sometimes. Reggie plays either a vintage 1978 Fender Precision Bass in mint conditon or a Sammick Bass into a vintage fender half stack (2x10 cab and all tube head) and he plays a shiny tenor saxophone. Eric plays a shiny-looking silver trumpet with an unsightly crease in the bell that has yet to be fixed. Jimmy hits Tama drums with sticks, which he breaks much too frequently, and uses an Iron Cobra double bass pedal and Iron Cobra Lever-Glide Hi Hat Stand, and a-series zildjian symbols and others. Steve plays a vintage electric guitar in mint condition and a small shiny blue trumpet. Brandon is still learning. (Sorry Ebram). His sax is not shiny. We play through the Mackie 808s PA/Power Mixer with 2 Yamaha Club series 15 inch speaker and one club series 12 inch monitor.
