The pain, the pain...

what do you two (meaning Ned and Marco) think of DAAB, the Polish reggae band?

The song name seems to be the name of a dish one would find at Poland's only Mexican restaurant.

You mean you've been to Krakow Bell?

Wroclaw's finest, ladies and gentlemen.

Czterysta lat temu Hiszpanie znaleźli w Meksyku nie tylko złoto. Była tam również kukurydza, fasola, chili, pomidory, ziemniaki, cukinia, awokado oraz wiele nowopoznanych owoców i przypraw. Zdobyły one swe miejsce w kuchni przybyszów, którzy chętnie korzystali z doświadczeń kulinarnych Majów i Azteków. Tak powstała kuchnia meksykańska, która podbiła serca amatorów ostrego jedzenia w Ameryce i Europie. Przyjdź do nas i rozpocznij swoją mexykańską przygodę!

CHIMICHANGAS - 19.00

nadziewana smażona pszenna tortilla, mozarella, sałata, kukurydza, papryka, groszek, salsa fresca, salsa ranchera, crema blanca, nadzienie do wyboru:

fyi meksykańska = mexican ska

I've no doubt this is where Fun Lovin' Criminals spend all their time now.

Running around robbing banks all wacked off of nowopoznanych owoców i przypraw

Stick 'em up punk, it's the nadzienie do wyboru

Hughie is part of the tragic losers parade that is the 6 "Music" advert I saw tonite.

no wait he spells it like the duck, yeah?

Nick B, i love ya. and i'm kind of not into Polish jokes, being Polish and all.

in other words, Bravo.

there's also Mr Zoob

well, anyway, the name of the Mr. Zoob song translates to "I Am Your Piece of Floor," roughly.

Been a year, there has to be new and equally bad out there.

Well, here's a recent single by Jukka Poika, Finland's most popular reggae singer of the 00s. He's not bad though.

The most recent trend in here has been combining reggae and rap with Finnish and Eastern European folk music.

...which was pioneered by the rapper Asa and his band Jätkäjätkät.

A friend just told me to check out this Italian ska band called Pitura Freska and I smiled.

bought this jabberwocky cd a few years back thinking i was getting something else (the u.s. jabberwocky) but it turned out to be a gypsy ska punk band from italy. quite good actually in a bregovic/no smoking orchestra kinda way, horn vamps aplenty and all that jazz
