Smiley Ska Festival Dec. 19, 2009

I was bit Depress these pass a couple of weeks and haven't done much. But a few days ago my friend told me about the Smiley Ska Festival and she told me that The Skatalites was playing so I was down to go there. Before that Friday night (December 18th) I was invited to a rave party that was organized by Smirnoff I got totally wasted  with them free vodka cocktails they had there. So the next day had a total bad hang over and wasn't planning to head to Pattaya for the SKA festival, But a few hours spending time in my room I got bored and decide to go, I packed my camera bag and I was off to the bus station even though its was 4:30pm. Got to Pattaya by 7pm called my friend and she hooked me up with a stage pass when I got in Prince Fatty was playing then I was shock to hear Tribal War and I was like that's Little Roy's song, I ran to the stage and there he was Little Roy I never knew he was part of Prince Fatty's Band, then I started taking pics all night long.  


First things first have to show these pics because it an honor to have photos with the Ska, Rocksteady and Reggae Legends.
