there's actually a bar-band in my neck of the woods called Skanatra. 'Cause this is Frankie's hometown and they play ska.

Get it? Good.

don't give 'em any ideas, Ms. Rosen. it's bad enough having Skanatra around.

oh yeah, Weehawken (next door to Hoboken) is where Aaron Burr shot Alexander Hamilton to death in a duel (there's even a memorial on the spot, so you know it's true!)

therefore, i propose that some bad Weehawken bar-band should call themselves Skalexander Hamilton (but y'all saw that shit comin')
