Way Gone Wednesdays: The Mighty Mighty Bosstones

DateWednesday, August 24, 2011 at 9:06AM

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones were a hard working third-wave ska band for 14 years before they caught their big break.  They ran for another 6 years before going on hiatus in 2003.  Frontman Dicky Barrett is now the announcer on Jimmy Kimmel Live.  Their 1992 EP, Where'd You Go? featured a couple of surprising covers (Metallica's "Enter Sandman" and "Sweet Emotion" by Aerosmith).  Dig em.  They're way gone.
