Never heard of this show but since it features some of the former writers of Late Night with Conan O’ Brien, I decided to check out the DVD of the first 2 seasons. It’s a outrageous, out-there concept of a show but works for the most part.

Taj Motel Trio
1) The Taj Motel Trio formed around the height of the ska craze in the late 90’s. What was it that made you want to start your own ska punk band?
I’m not really sure what made us want to do this, we just like making music I guess. We didn’t intentionally start a ska punk band, it was an accident.
