Jake Blues, the elder of the two Blues Brothers, was imprisioned for five years, for holding up a gas station to cover the band's room service tab in a gig in Tijuana. He was released on parole after three years, for good behaviour, and was picked up by his brother, Elwood. After a fully religious experience, he decided to put the band back together, to raise money, and to pay the taxes on the orphanage in which he and Elwood grew up. He was played by John Belushi, who died before Blues brothers 2000 came out.

Holy crap, "Joliet" Jake Blues did all his own dancing.

Possably the most generous ska band in the world. Doing benefit concerts and giving away free tickets are just a few of the things they do,and also they have the most killer Ska sound out there.
Less Thank Jake is the most Awsome Ska band ever.

Less Jake is a (curently) five-piece melodic punk band out of Gainesville, Florida. Despite what most people think, they are not ska. They started off as a power-pop-punk trio with metal and punk influences, then the drummer, Vinnie started thinking, "Hey, some horns would be cool," after listening to The Specials. In their decade of writing incredible songs, they have undoubtably written some ska, but the majority is punk, albeit with horns.
The band has put out so many records it's not even funny, and is touring constantly, and they have been doing this for many years. They represent the punk mindstate, as they always do shit for their fans. Then after the release of Anthem, so many of their fans turned around and started calling them sellouts, just for signing to a major label (Warner Brothers/Sire). They said this, when in fact, the only thing that changed is now more people have access to their incredible music and terribly deep lyrics. I must admit, some trendhoppers peeking their way into Less Than Jake can get annoying, having to see them call "Look What Happened" "I Swear It's the Last Time", and seeing them just in general tarnish the loyalty Less Than Jake's fan body, it's bad, and it can hurt. The fact that they are on a big label doesn't make them sellouts. Anthem is my least favorite LTJ record, I admit, but overall quality is still uncompromised (She's Gonna Break Soon is a pretty shitty song though).
Memberwise, Less Than Jake is currently Chris on guitar and vox, Roger on bass and vox, Vinnie on drums and he writes the lyrics, Buddy on trombone, and JR on tenor sax. Roger has another band called Rehasher, in which he plays guitar. Roger is pretty good at guitar, and he mostly writes the lyrics for them, and has proved to be as adept as Vinnie with lyrics. Vinnie writes the best lyrics ever, if I may express my opinion. What he wrties is so deep, and most anyone who cares to look can extract multiple levels of meaning from his lyrics. Buddy is one of the best trombonists not involved in orchestral or jazz music, if not the best. JR has some solo music where he plays guitar and sings. Previous members include Chris, their first bassist; their second bassist Shaun, who was a roadie after he was replaced by Roger; Jessica, who played alto sax, who now teaches highschool in Gainesville; Derron on bari sax, who started a kickass band called Gunmoll, now broken up; and finally Pete on trombone, who now is a firefighter, and is rumored to be a firefighter in Antarctica (I don't get it either).
Do you like Less Than Jake?
Oh, hell yeah. Best GVR band. Ever.
Borders and Boundaries is the best album ever. Faction is off that album. It just so happens to be the best song on Earth.

THE fucking greatest and most kick-ass ska band ever to WALK THE EARTH!
Less Than Jake could kick 500 other bands' asses with their arms and legs tied together and with rabid ferrets duct taped onto their faces.
