I will admit to a deep core love of jazz, but I don't even know what African strings is, lol. These guys are about the closest I come to any sort of tribal.
It's not a genre, it's a what I call a group of African stringed instruments that are responsible for the creation of the Banjo. Not sure if you'll like them but here's another list.

Ngoni
Akonting
Karindula
Molo
Kibangala (has different names in different countries, and is very similar to a lute. Some people think it might have been the earliest version of the lute)
Ramkie (basically a hand made guitar with an oil can body)

Lol, all this cross-genre music talk is making me think we should try one of those long-distance song/band-building exercises. They're usually an entertaining trainwreck at least. :S
I'm not sure what you mean

Cool, I'm sure between Alex and I you'll no longer have that void in your life.

You won't find many horn sections better than streetlight's, they don't fuck around. But anyway, here is a list.

Voodoo Glow Skulls
RX Bandits (the drummer does things with a hi-hat that will make you cum, but sometimes the singer ruins things)
Save Ferris
Reel Big Fish
The First Chairs (you will probably have to go to bandcamp to find them, but their horn section is really good too. You can definitely hear streetlight's influence all over)
The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Hepcat
Big D and the Kids table
The Evocatones
Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution (Another Tomas Kalnoky band)
Skankin' Pickle
Mustard Plug
The Slackers
The Supervillains
Choking Victim and Leftover Crack (barely 2 different bands)
Morning Glory
The toasters
Mad caddies
Bim Skala Bim
Fishbone
Operation Ivy
Common Rider (
Classics of Love is a good song to start off with)
Mephiskapheles
The Planet Smashers

There are a lot more... Alex can probably fill in any noteworthy exclusions
Oreskaband.
Suburban Legends.
Upstanding Youth.
The Berrymoores. (If you can actually find their albums I'd be shocked, but they were incredible.)
Five Iron Frenzy.
Less Than Jake. (I went to college in Gainesville just so I could see these guys live on the regular.)
The Aquabats, specifically their early albums (Fury of the Aquabats! and Return of the Aquabats,) as later on in their career they lost the horns and went kind of pseudo-industrial.


Some of these aren't necessarily third wave, but still amazing nonetheless.
I like how we both left out No Doubt's early stuff. Total Hate '95 is still a good song though

:hifive:
I am mildly ashamed that we both left out Buck-'O-
Nine though. Twenth-Eight Teeth is one of my favorite albums EVER.
Holy shit, we did. Kaze too. Brb, ritual suicide.[/quote]
I have brought shame to my clan.

I'm not sure what you mean
I lay down a guitar track, pass it off to you, you track drums to it, pass it to pendulum who does some bass stuff, etc.

Pretty much, or just leave a track out in the open for others to mess
with. I'm on the work computer (the one running Millenium) but I'll see what I can do in the next coupla days.

i took off monday-thursday next week because i don't have a place to live and haven't been able to invest the time necessary to find a place to live, but cautioned at the time of filing this that the only reason i didn't file the time off for friday was because two other people in editorial were scheduled to be off before me.
today in the cycle of reporting what each person's schedule is next week, i raised the monday-thursday "vacation" and cautioned that i may need friday if i can't find an apartment in the 4-day window i'd already opened. i was met shortly after with "you didn't file for the day off and you have to file for the day off or we'll expect you in the office."

i've spent the past 15 minutes thumbing through a list of snarky responses to that while biting my tongue almost clean off.

addendum: it is common knowledge to the entire editorial staff i am looking for a new place to live, am not having a very productive time in my hunt, and should just generally be human knowledge that the fear of homelessness is not a pleasant concern.

I'd go for that. Temporary solutions to long-term problems are always the right course of action.
