Victor “Vic” Ruggiero, (also known as Bad Vic,Ruggarroo or Lord Sluggo) is a musician, songwriter and producer from New York City who has played in many ska bands, such as The Slackers, Stubborn All-Stars, SKAndalous All-Stars, Crazy Baldhead and The Silencers (not to be confused with the Scottish rock band The Silencers). He has also performed with punk rock band Rancid, both live and in the studio. He has released three solo acoustic albums, and has accompanied acoustic ska musician and singer Chris Murray.
Ruggiero’s voice has a distinct Bronx accent that has a hard, guttural quality. His lyrics usually follow several themes, including the apocalypse, dark humor, political distrust, paranoia, murder, love and loss. His songs have ranged from narrative ballads to nonsense songs inspired by Beat generation poets, such as Jack Kerouac. He is primarily an organist, although he also plays piano, bass, banjo, guitar, harmonica and percussion. He has been seen playing many different kinds of organs, such as Roland VK-7 and VK-8, Korg CX-3, Hammond XB-1G, Hammond XK-2 and Rheem Mark 7 as well as a Rhodes Piano.
Ruggiero has also worked as the producer behind a number of releases. His own New York-based record label Special Potatoe Records is the outlet for many of these projects, especially those in which members and alumni of The Slackers are involved.

If you can't find MP3s, you're either a member of the wrong torrent sites or too stupid to google his name, head over to his official website at vicruggiero.com and get his free bootlegs.

He needs to come to Syracuse again. The Slackers did awesome when they played here but I'd really like to hear just Vic sometime.

quite possibly my biggest influence as a songwriter. This man does no wrong all across the board. He is the quintessential ska-pop songwriter. I'm always craving his melodies.

My brother saw a show of his in NYC and said that he did a cover of Eminem's The Way I Am. Wish I was there. That would've been awesome... awesome funny.
