Are The Jumpstarts still around in any shape or form? I used to play in
The Stingy Brims, but we broke up 5 years ago. There were a bunch of
ska bands and shows around this area about 10 years ago and there was a
ska scene. I lived in Charlotte then, and there was no ska to be had.
We had to drive up here. There was a small mail order/ska promotion
company that cropped up in Charlotte around '95 called Rude Bros. They
brought the Jumpstarts to Fat City and had "ska night" at a coffee shop
called Cafe Caffe' or something. Seems the NC ska wave crashed in '98
or '99.
