Hi,
Thanks for the comment. I would like to add the following bands,
Prince Buster
The Specials
And ofcourse "Madness"
I always felt that these ska bands bear close resemblence to first wave
surf band set ups (sax, guitar Bass, drums, and organ)
And indeed that crazy "El Hefe" of NOFX plays some nasty Ska rythems
from time to time....So do the Bosstones...
Jerry S. (who use to go to see every NOFX gig in Belgium....Until he got
hit by the big surf ;)

Hey Brian, as a ska fan i can help you out allitle on your problem.
The technique i use the most is a mute down stroke with an up stroke, of
course that way is only effective with barre style cords, you can also
use
your palms and just have a staccato upstroke depending on the
sound/speed
your looking for. Im sure your familiar with some of these but ska
bands
that i would model after would be -operation ivy, buck-0-nine, the
skatalites, the The mighty mighty bosstones, and even certain nofx
albums
have ska style guitar on them. Hope this helps.
