- Ugh.. Speaking of someone from the Detroit area (Ann Arbor) who goes
- to a ska show every now and then, I'm sick to death of Gangster Fun.
- If I had to put my finger on it, I'd put it down to the fact that they
- put a lot more work into dressing rude and hopping around on stage
- than they put into their music. It's unimaginatively written and
- poorly performed, at least judging from the at the live shows I've
- been to. Save your money for good music.
