A Short History Lesson (bet you wish your teacher would say that!)

In the beginning there was the sound, and it was good! (well some of them were) The sound was used by many for the purpose of music. One day a man (Desmond Dekker) discovered a sound that caused people to lose all control of their muscles and dance in a strange way (and sometimes poop, but i think thats just a condition), this manner of sound was called ska and the dance was called the skank and it was good! And the people rejoiced throughout the land! Since then there have been many a band who have used this manner of sound to incite random acts of dancing!
 
This is where we come in!
Far out in the middle of nowhere (its somewhere close to the tree and the farm!), in a small whole in the ground known as Tottenham, there lived a group of people who didn;t know each other (well not yet anyways). A guy named Cameron and another guy named Mark teamed up with each other to create band. After failing to do so, they decide to go their seperate ways, but Mark will not give up he is determined to start a band (mainly because the idea of sitting behind a desk designing pop tart labels isnt that appealing), so after much searching he finds a drummer (Matt) and a bassist (Devon), and they join forces to create a ska band known as The Dancing Squirrels. They whip up a couple songs and journey to find a singer, one Simone Anscomb. Summer comes around and the band all but splits up. When school rolls around again they reform again but without singer Simone (availability problems). They decide to induct one Val Balabalabalaanowitz, and start a fresh with new songs and a give em hell attitude! Things were looking good for the band until Val decides he no longer wants to sing but instead decides the guitar is his weapon of choice and he bids us farewell. Now we are again an incomplete band (Just when things were looking up). We do much searching and have little or no luck and just when things are getting hopeless we see a bright light and from this bright light there seems to be strange noise coming from it! What could it be a sign? a fire caused by our lack of cooking skills? a hallucination caused by food poisoning? (it was the first one) Just then a man steps out of the light and we welcome Dave into the band, a trumpet player/ singer! (The strange noise was bad trumpet playing, he hasn't played for 3 years, gonna need some practice) Now with the band complete we set off on our journey to bring swift justice to the world in the form of sound! (WAIT DIDN'T I SAY THIS WAS GONNA BE SHORT! THIS COULDA BEEN SUMMED UP IN ONE SENTENCE, BUNCH OF STUPID KIDS STOP PICKING THERE NOSE AND PICK UP INSTRUMENTS, MUSIC FOLLOWS SHORTLY AFTER! DAMN IT YOUR WAISTING MY TIME
