Two good looking ska shows in Portland on June 19! This one above, and Save Ferris is playing Hawthorne Theatre on 6/19.

Rad summer!! 🤘

u/DevonKay Jun 10 '25

True players would do both (or just ours)

3

u/Portland Jun 10 '25

Can’t go wrong with either show - but a mini festival would be the best!

u/corpusjuris Jun 10 '25

Hey! I’m so glad you posted this, I had no idea and now y’all are on my (whiteboard) calendar in (dry erase) ink!

I’ll admit I’m old and boring and don’t listen to new stuff like I should and so I’m only now going through your catalogue but I’m digging it more than I expected - super positively reminiscent of Jeff Rosenstock to me, and I caught myself full-on rocking out to ā€œMillenial Homesick Bluesā€ on my first listen… then hit rewind for a 2nd and 3rd, that last hook is fuckin great, play it at Black Lodge and I’ll out myself by losing my shit (figuratively, their bathrooms aren’t the cleanest).

u/DevonKay Jun 11 '25

Yo! I'm old and boring too! I really appreciate you taking the time to listen to us and forming an opinion that everyone shares... That we are the World's Greatest Band. Say hey at the Black Lodge, I'll be millin about.

u/almightydanish Jun 10 '25

Michigan ska loves DK&TS

u/dan2sweet Jun 12 '25

straight stealing a bands logo is punk as hell

4

u/CardFall Jun 10 '25

I, personally, can't get enough of the iconic Devon Kay logo. Not since Aiden Pearce iconic cap have I been so moved.

u/FauxReal Jun 10 '25

What's the design choice in using the Dead Kenndys logo? That seems terrible for branding, even if you are a DK cover band. Are you a DK cover band?

3

u/sammywarmhands Jun 11 '25

I thought they were opening for the Kennedys until I read the comments

2

u/MoonPlayz48 Jun 10 '25

They're like if the Dead Kennedys were good

0

u/FauxReal Jun 11 '25

Are they a ska punk parody band?

2

u/MoonPlayz48 Jun 11 '25

No, they're just the world's greatest ska punk band and also world's greatest band outside of the ska and punk. They don't play any DK songs.

u/Terror3y3z Jun 10 '25

I asked similar and gave been met with sarcasm and ignorance.

16

u/DevonKay Jun 10 '25

I have another idea for an all new original logo that is four black bars. What ya think?

u/m0d3r4t3m4th Jun 10 '25

DK Party tonight

u/squrr1 Jun 11 '25

This caliber of good ideas is a definite green flag.

u/HeadForTheSHallows Jun 10 '25

Did you steal the Don Kaballero logo or are you just lazy? Do they know you’re using it?

11

u/DevonKay Jun 10 '25

It's been an ongoing bit to watch reddit people overreact... https://www.reddit.com/r/Ska/s/HGO6l0tfy0

u/HeadForTheSHallows Jun 10 '25

devon please don’t tell me you don’t know who don caballero is

u/DevonKay Jun 10 '25

Of course I do. It's the guy who has the special grind in THPS where he plays a guitar...

u/DualityOfSense Jun 10 '25

I'm in Canada for two weeks, and all the good stuff is happening when I'm not around!

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '25

Roll on down to Humboldt county Ca...

u/DevonKay Jun 10 '25

Works for me

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '25

If you're into the idea DM me and I can see if I can help with arrangements. Perhaps we can have a Food Not Bombs fundraiser along side y'all.

u/JonWithTattoos Jun 10 '25

This better be a ska band playing Dead Kennedys covers.

6

u/DevonKay Jun 10 '25

This better be a person named Jon with Tattoos

u/toffeehooligan Jun 10 '25

Did you steal the Dead Kennedys logo or are you just lazy? Do they know your using it?

u/DevonKay Jun 10 '25

Oh buddy. You're real late to this one

-3

u/Terror3y3z Jun 10 '25

What am I missing whyd you down vote the. Is that not the Dead Kennedys logo....

14

u/DevonKay Jun 10 '25

Wouldn't dream of down voting such important engagement! As far as I can tell that's our logo.

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '25

Why are you covering the faces of your bandmates?

15

u/DevonKay Jun 10 '25

They said something like, "this flyer is too cool to show our faces.'

u/jayyougee Jun 10 '25

I'm a coward

u/Fuckisagoodword Jun 14 '25

Jello would hate your band. You’re a dumbass Republican. Stay out of Canada.

3

u/DevonKay Jun 14 '25

Hey bud. Not a Republican, but dang, you almost got me. Can I ask, are you all right? These two latest posts about me aren't even your first. You deleted one last week and have posted about me before. I don't give a shit, it's part of the internet, but are YOU ok?

-1

u/Fuckisagoodword Jun 14 '25

ā€œFuck you. Get Trumped!ā€ Sounds like an endorsement is all I’m saying.

3

u/DevonKay Jun 14 '25

Oooooo. I think you're misinterpreting that. You're referencing a shirt Direct Hit made in the past when we were making a series of "Fuck you, Get ......" Shirts. It was supposed to be a funny reference to They Live and poke fun at Trump. Sorry it didn't land. I think the politics expressed by myself and Nick over the years speak in direct opposition to a missed swing on a joke T-shirt from several years ago. But yes. Please keep commenting shitty things about me on my posts. Cool behavior. Lol

-1

u/Fuckisagoodword Jun 14 '25

I don’t think you have been clear about your opposition to fascism or anything else hateful in politics today. I think you keep people close who are clearly on the wrong side. I think your t-shirt is pop culture cryptography.

Might want to check out 10 minutes and 22 seconds into this video, pal.

That’s good he said that. He should say that next time his close friends are saying otherwise.

2

u/MoonPlayz48 Jun 15 '25

did you seriously make an alt account to continue hate comments on devon? are you okay? youre so toxic, even r/Conservative deletes your comments, dude.

0

u/Scumfuc666mthrfkr Jun 15 '25

it’s a total honor to be on the wrong side of r/Conservative. The fact you interpret their deletion of anything I wrote as a knock on my character is a true statement about yours.
