The Dingees are a Ska Punk band founded in the summer of 1996 by Saxophone player Dave Chevalier and vocalist Pegleg. The band was a side project of The Supertones , for whom Pegleg was a Roadie and Chevalier a member. The original intent of the band was to stay local and play shows only when the Supertones were not touring, but that changed as the band grew.1 Guitarist Brian Johnson and drummer Tony Terusa (who played bass for the Supertones) joined as well. They were replaced by drummer Ethan Luck and guitarist Jeff Holmes for their debut album ''Armageddon Massive'' in 1998. This first release contained the most ska of any of the band's albums. After the album was released Chevalier left the Supertones to develop the band full time, while Holmes and Luck left. Jeff Holmes was replaced by Aaron Landers and Scott Rodgers took over for Ethan Luck. In 1999 The Dingees released their second album ''Sundown to Midnight''. The album contained multiple styles, but it's styles were separated by track rather than fused together (like those of the Supertones), leading to what some termed a "fusion/confusion" approach to music. They released their third album, ''The Crucial Conspiracy'', in 2001. The Dingees' MySpace pages feature previously unreleased tracks titled "Fite Dem Back", "Y2KAOS", "Runnin' Underground", and "Still On The Move"; along with dub versions of classics like "Deadman", "Dark Hollywood", "We Rot the Voodoo", and "World's Last Night". The Dingees have also started playing concerts at several California venues. LINEUP
