Video: The Toasters' "Run Rudy Run" with Coolie Ranx at The Knitting Factory on 1/16/11

Here's the postscript to The Duff Guide to Ska/Marco on the Bass pre-show party for The Toasters' 30th Anniversary Tour gig in NYC--a video of The Toasters performing one of their signature cuts "Run Rudy Run" with guest toaster/ex-Toaster Coolie Ranx at The Knitting Factory Brooklyn. You'll find that Buck's voice is kind of raspy here--we hope he's not coming down with something at the outset of this tour--so Coolie is given a fair amount of time to impress the crowd with his lyrical magic. Make sure to watch the video in its entirety--Coolie spills the beans on something the band is planning for later this year...

Big thanks to Mike D. at The Establishment for the video!

  3. Brian...it will probably be the last time anyone will have the chance to see something close to a "Dub 56" era version of The Toasters...

  4. I was too young to see the Dub 56 era Toasters but I always lived vicariously through the Frankenska live album.

    A chance to see some of that stuff live again w/ Coolie on the mic is something I don't intend on missing.
