When Long Beach Dub first started, The Players Ball had them perform at our very first Ball in 1999. They played all Sublime and Long Beach Dub tunes, not too many people realized who that band was back then but everyone loved that they played Sublime tunes.
Well, Long Beach Dub broke up again and split up into a couple of different groups. One group is the band that is backing up our reggae legend in San Diego, The Dubcats. Oh yeah, the reggae legend performing will be Half Pint who also has songs with Long Beach Dub All-Stars.
Dubcats is also comprised of another group some of you might know called Hepcat (Ska/Reggae band).
Anyway, just thought I'd share that with you. I know there are tons of Sublime / Long Beach Dub All Star fans in our biz.

D$: Please refer to the Player's Handbook chapter 1, section 1.1 line 69 that states quote "Whenever the Original Player's Ball and LBdub are mentioned in the same paragraph a nod to Team Homegrown is required per the O.G code authorities and recommendations..." end quote...
Congrats on the show! (my college rooommate Dust Brother EZ Mike was one of the producers on tone loc's original record, btw)
