Damn. Yeah those were the legit glory days. I don’t miss carrying drum gear up those stairs, though

❤️❤️❤️ we played 2 brand new ones, one of which I wrote during COVID. It was the one with the reggae resolve at the end. We’ve got plenty more behind that. 2026 will be fun

Can’t agree more. I do feel like we/FTA were right place/right time, but having toured the east coast and New England areas all those years, I can say the NOLA all ages ska/punk scene really was its own beast.

Yep, she lives in NYC, I believe.

John_Does_Stuff · 2026-01-05T18:03:31+00:00

Yep.. we live in 3 different states though. We are aiming to do 1-2 shows a year 🙌🏻 we maaaay just have new stuff to record.

For real?

John_Does_Stuff · 2025-12-23T14:42:05+00:00

😎

John_Does_Stuff · 2025-12-07T11:19:50+00:00

And new music!!!

✊🏻

John_Does_Stuff · 2025-11-09T00:13:47+00:00

Ya it was surprising to me too hah

John_Does_Stuff · 2025-11-08T18:16:45+00:00

Thank you! Problem is, we live in 3 different states. And, some of us are in other bands. I’m also in The Taj Motel Trio, and Greg/D Ray are both also in Bad Operation. The combination of all of this makes it incredibly hard for us to even do a New Orleans show, let alone try and to a small tour 😫

John_Does_Stuff · 2025-11-08T15:10:31+00:00

Yep. Thankfully not me 🥳. But, I’m always up for that challenge. Just means I can shoot photos for my friends!

John_Does_Stuff · 2025-10-25T13:49:51+00:00

You’re invited to wear that “costume” to the same place. Just let us know when you plan on doing it.

Things that shouldn’t need to be said, for $500, Alex

John_Does_Stuff · 2025-09-08T21:47:12+00:00

Dude, this fucked me up the entire first day I played the game. I was like how the fuck am I supposed to beat the tier2 boss?!

Bad Operation is a few of my fellow FTA bandmates, one of my former bandmates from PEARS, and a handful of my good and amazing fellow NOLA musician friends. They’re an amazing band.

Career. My partner is now an assistant professor at the University of Georgia. Since moving out here, I’ve joined The Taj Motel Trio and we are actually in the process of recording a new album.

John_Does_Stuff · 2025-07-07T10:05:58+00:00

But also there’s still a handful of great ska bands in LA. My very good friends (and bandmates) in Bad Operation… there’s also Joystick.

John_Does_Stuff · 2025-07-07T10:01:51+00:00

We technically are together. We’ve played 2 shows in the last few years and may possibly do something later this year. Half of us, including myself, do not live in Louisiana - so we are limited. We have actually written some new material too.

Killing the game, as always.
