As it was pointed out there is a lack of reggae this year... I think we could really use some John Brown's Body or Slightly Stoopid. Or better yet both of them together? It has been known to happen...Late night anyone? I am really hoping for at least one of the two in the additions seeing as they both are amazing bands and nether has played roo and both are kinda cross genre jam/reggae/dnb and have been know to cross collorabate with themselves as well as many other bands who have played roo.

slightly stoopid is pretty awesome. me and my buddy used to always jam to their live acoustic cd after eating a bunch of corn and then go and try and play the songs ourselves, lol, it made for some good times
Miles from SS is the man. I talked to him at Lolla, and he was one of the most down to Earth musicians that I've come across. We had a great talk about all kinds of stuff and ended the interview off with this:
Moe: One more thing, if you could be in front of Congress, and you could plead your case as to why marijuana should be legalized, what would you say?
Miles: Ah! God, that’d be hard to approach. What I would honestly be thinking in my mind is that the government distributes so much no no word in this country that for them to sit there and say that smoking weed is this negligent thing, is pretty hypocritical, because, do you think they throw away all those no no word that they confiscate from people?
Moe: Yeah right…
Miles: They recycle that back, it’s a filtration process, because that gives them the upper hand. They distribute the shittier no no word in bad parts of town and that kinda keeps the scale, it keeps cops busy. It gives them a reason to do things. And honestly, there’s so much money in the weed that since they can’t control it… Which would be smart, just think if you could go down to the 7-Eleven and buy a dime-bag, or whatever, an eighth, a quarter… But you know, government controlled, they could tax it, then what’s the problem? You know what I’m saying? Honestly, what is the problem? You got people, our people that are running our country, who are getting richer while this country is getting poorer. We dump 250 trillion dollars overseas? We can’t even take care of our own people, you know what I’m saying, to me that’s stupid.
Moe: It is poor.
Miles: Honestly, they need to get new money inside the government to run it. They got these people that are eighty years old making decisions for people that are…
Moe: Like us.
Miles: Yeah, we’re a different breed of people. It’s a new generation. People that are eighty years old, they’re talking about stuff when you’re getting barely even an automobile; you know what I’m saying?
Moe: Oh, I know… I know.
Miles: So, to me I just think it’s kinda funny. The government is very hypocritical about that and if they can’t control it, they think it’s bad. Personally, I just think they need to get off their high-horse and let it ride.
