Welcome everyone to This Was The Scene, the podcast that takes a look back at the late 90s / early 2000 Punk scene, I am your host, Mike Doyle.

Less Than Jake is the shit. If you don't know who they are then you're in the wrong place.

I was able to get Vinnie on the phone, which was AWESOME, and this is what we talked about:

• Stepping away from touring
• Growing up in Jersey
• How were they embraced when they started out
• What influenced them to write ska songs
• Getting on Asian Man
• The Alan Rappaport pool party
• How has Jersey treated them throughout their career
• The Losing Streak hidden track
• And a ton more
