I think that's kinda like two other sayings of Brian's/his friends: "Can I get a witness?" and "Good lookin' out". The first one was at the end of his PastePunk interview, i think. and i've started saying the second one recently
Though the interviewer was not very good, he asked a few questions that I think we all wondered about (the reverb, Charles Dickens, etc.), and got a few things confirmed maybe, but at least I learned a bit more, and got to hear about Brian's influences. The Slackers and The Specials...that's awesome. I think the fact that people like Brian and Springsteen like at least a few ska bands kinda validates ska as a genre.
But seriously, no new album in '09? I can keep my hopes up I guess. And I'm calling it: sometime in '09, The Bouncing Souls, The Loved Ones, The Gaslight Anthem tour. I'd probably pay $300 to see that.
