"That's because an arena is the wrong venue to appreciate the most important member of the Bosstones: the dancing guy."
All he did was skip back and forth across the stage. He was the one my dad liked to make fun of the most: "What the hell is that guy's point? The band is so shitty they need to have a guy skipping across the stage to take your attention away from the fact that they can't play their instruments?"
I do prefer their ska-core stuff (i.e. earlier albums) that they put out on TAANG much more than the later stuff. I never really thought of them as serious musicians as much as a fun band to bop around to (and there wasn't much bopping to be done sitting in a chair in the Boston Garden). :)
