No professional touring band has had it easy the last couple of years, but San Diego ska punk icons Buck-O-Nine have had one seriously bumpy ride since the release of their 2019 album FunDayMental. For starters, the worldwide COVID pandemic struck the following year, cancelling the band’s plans to tour in support of the new album. Most recently, much-beloved singer Jon Pebsworth suffered a major cardiac arrest, which led to him being hospitalized and again delaying a planned tour.
