And I said HEY! WHAT A WONDERFUL KIND OF DAY!

I covered this track about 5 years ago, and I’ve been wanting to re-record it for STREAMING for some time now, so I hope y’all enjoy this new rendition of a SKA version of one of the most iconic theme songs of all time, featuring some CUMBIA vibes in those verses!!!

Now, this isn’t a final mix… I’ve honestly been having a hell of a week. I recorded this cover not knowing I had COVID… lol. It actually left me feeling so exhausted. The next day, COVID hit me full on and I felt it. I was supposed to get this early access up yesterday, but I was basically resting and out of commission all weekend and going into early this week! Im finally back to somewhat normal, but still.. COVID really set me back.

Adding insult to injury, I had a separate eye infection I had to go to a clinic for! And being a 100% freelancer, that is another out of pocket expenses, so bye bye 200 dollars! Lol Thankfully folks here support and I have fans who help me do the thing, but it’s a reminder that when you support here on patreon, not only does it help to my survival, and helping the channel get better, but helps me when I have emergency moments like this! Whether its medical, or getting sick!

SO THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING HERE! And please stay safe y’all! WEAR A MASK! I managed to dodge covid while traveling ALL SUMMER during a spike… but alas…. Even teaching high school band as the college students returned to my college town couldn’t save me….. rip…..

Hey Jer, do you think you're good to play that DC show next Friday? I'd totally get it if you wanted to skip it on account of all the traveling you're about to do.

Ska Tune Network

I’m definitely going to be good to play. Which is good cause cancelling would mean I would be several thousand dollars in debt LOL

I pledge that if you have to cancel, I will send the price of my four tickets right to your Venmo. So you have that, at least? But I'm glad you're on the mend!

Ska Tune Network

I appreciate it lol but I would need a lot more than money for a ticket. Between our travel and expenses like the van alone, it’s a few thousand dollars, plus the cost of all the merch we made. Plus my agent put weeks of work into organizing the shows, my 6 band members took off work/are depending on this work to survive too, and every band playing made the choice to play which includes turning down other shows There’s not really an ability to cancel that wouldn’t ultimately fuck me and the people involved on the tour financially lol this is why we stress how important it is to support bands when we tour. We put a lot into this. It’s not just the ticket sales, it’s all the time and work put into making the shows happen in the first place. And every expense of the tour has already been paid for, the money is gone and credit cards are maxed out. Not playing isn’t really an option. And if I had to cancel I honestly would probably never tour again lol
