I was impressed. I have seen the Ramones 10+ times and was happy to see CJ. I even got to talk to him after the gig and got his autograph. He was a really nice guy and was very inattentive on what I was saying to him. His record is out on Alturnitive Tentical records, I think that it is a EP. Also Joey Ramone there too and got his autograph. If CJ comes to your town, I would go and check him out!!! gk ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 11 Apr 1997 14:20:56 +0100 From: Jake Starr Subject: ADAM WEST >From: EEdiot103@aol.com >"I just got 4 Hits From Mars today (gold vinyl--N-I-I-I-ICE!

They were great. 2) Johnny Rotten got busted in 1977 with 138 milligrams of amphetamines. 3) The new AWESOME Gundam Tetra imported model is 138 in the wholesale catalog. Boy, is that fun or what? Gotta love that lucky number. Nextly, my opinions on "American Psycho". Brand me however you wish, ye teenaged mob of villains, but I don't like the advance cassette at all. Why? They sound like every other band imitating the Misfits. As you should know, the actual music the Misfits played is very very easy to play. Any band can copy that and at least have a decent background. It's the lyrics/vocals combination that brings a band higher up. These "Misfits" don't have it. I don't like Michaele's vocals, for one. And secondly, the lyrics all sound like stupid slasher flicks...they don't "get it" like some of the original Misfits tunes did. Glenn really was the band...sorry! I'm not trying to rag or say I told you so, I was hoping this would be good too. But as long as they make millions of dollars, that's what matters. My glass house is long since shattered, don't worry. Yours should be too. Anyone out there have the way too limited Spazz/Rupture split 7" they wanna trade or sell me? Also looking for the Spazz/Charles Bronson second press on white vinyl, and the Spazz/Monster X 7" on RED VINYL ONLY (yes, there was a red vinyl press...confirmed). And finally, today's nescessary corrections: Crimson Jimmy Most wrote: >Great Tune - - EMI Music Australia >This thread is getting silly. The fact of the matter is ALL of the >old-school punk was released on majors or large indies. Back then good music >was picked up, period. Bullshit. My thesis would probably be the opposite: good music wasn't picked up, period. .From 1977-1982, punk bands (not hardcore, even!) in the US alone (don't even get me started on foreign countries)...great bands who weren't picked up for whatever reason (probably because they know not to go to a sucky label who tells them what to do, or maybe because they're too obscure): Nubs (both), Absentees, Tapeworm, Mad, Chuck Taylors, Eat, Aryan Disgrace, Legionaires Disease Band, Bobby Soxx, False Prophets, NNB, Silly Killers, Insults, Eddie and the Subtitles, Panics, Ebeneezer and the Bludgeons, Cringe, Rejects, Big Boys, Customs, Really Red, Sado-Nation, General Foodz, Features, Grim/Klone Band, Chain Gang, Village Pistols, Nervebreakers, Authorities, Stoned, Dejex, Opus, Vains, Nuns, Avengers, Sick and the Lame, Cult Heroes, Crap Detectors, Vomit Pigs, Child Molesters, DOA, Dicks, Uncalled 4, Unnatural Axe, Crime, Losers, Gizmos, Max Load, Shell Shock, Necros, Fix, Cold Cock, Strike Under, Kneecappers, Pagans, Executives, X-Terminators, Heart Attack, S'Nots, Ice 9, Styphnoids, Hollywood Squares, Snucky Tate, Cosmetics, Victims, Skinnies, Dogs, Shock, Trend, Accident, Teenage PhDs, Peer Pressure, Tazers, Chiefs, Screaming Mee-Mees, Plugz, Normals, Nervous Eaters, Lewd, Meaty Buys, Mentally Ill, Lubricants, Shit Dogs, Tragics/Misfits, Dead Kennedys, Abused, Maids, Dot Vaeth Group, DDT, Reactors, Crucified, Endtables, X-X, Stains (both), Nasty Facts, Detention, Queers, Kraut, the Wipers, Toxin III, the Hated, Latin Dogs, Dennis Most and the Instigators, John Vomit and the Leather Scabs, AK47, Brain Police, Zero Boys, Ejectors, Babylon Dance Band, Ed Davis Band, Alan Milman Sect, Includes Cardiac Kidz, Lizerds, Chemotherapy, Breakouts, Maroons, Lockjaw, Chronic Sick, Injections, HBE, Ayatollahs, Distorted Levels, Ed Nasty and the Dopeds, the Freeze, 5, Violators, Rotters, Cracked Actor, Epicycle, Fear, VKTMS, Epicycle, Maggots, Regular Joes, Plastic Idols, Screaming Urge, Features, Violators, Inanimate Objects, Private School, Funeral, Razar, Freestone, Reducers, Vertical Slit, Negative Trend, etc. etc. If anyone wants more thesis support, I'll do foreign countries next time. But I think my point has been well-proven. BTW, the Saints 1st LP IS awesome. Top five Australia, easy, along with the first Razar 7", the Victims, the Psycho Surgeons and of course, the best of the best, the Fun Things. But there's plenty more from down under...I recommend old Aussie punk highly to the curious...maybe it's because it was a British penal colony, or maybe it's because there weren't enough people to form sucky bands, but most of the old Aussie punk bands are really spectacular. Check them out! Open your mind!

Is there a [misfits] song that you46%think sounds like it says something that it doesn't say? ie I have a46%friend who thinks that one of the songs says his name in it(It does sound46%like it actually) . And I knew this girl once, who shall remain nameless,46%who thought that a certain misfits song was saying "teenagers in love"***46%46%Why must I be a teenager from mars.....46%Leah" Ooooo. Otay, On theme for a jackal at one point I thought he was saying "Feeeeeeeeeed me a rack of lamb." And when I first heard Angelfuck I thought he was saying "She's got eyes for everyone" Instead of "Size for everyone." (I still think my lyrics are better.) My little brother thought that on tv causualty they were saying "Keep me out of it, keep me out of it!" Hmmm... Braineaters I couldn't understand a goddamned thing, but I thought when they said "Brains for lunch" they were saying "Wait for us" and instead of "Why can't we have some guts" I thought it was "Why can't we have some fun?" I could go on and on, but I'll let the other kiddies play this game now. I should get my ears checked. ____ ______ __ / \/ \ \ \ | () | __ | |/ ____ \____/ / \ | / \ / \ \__/ | _\ \\_| | () | | | \\ \ \____/\______/ \____/ ------------------------------ From: Missyfit9@aol.com Date: Fri, 11 Apr 1997 16:06:00 -0400 (EDT) Subject: a sad, sad story. Last summer me and 4 of my friends bought tickets to the Action Park show in New Jersey. We are from the Boston area so we had a long drive ahead of us. We started out at 6:00am and we decided to drive the 79 BRONCO because it has more room for the 5 us. We never expected the truck to break down, but it did! After sitting at a rest stop for a while, we had the truck towed to a service station/car rental agengy. Between all of us we had about $500 and decided to rent a car hoping that we would still make the show. If you have ever tried to rent a car you know you have to be 21 and have a credit card and none of us fit both of these categories so my friend's mother came to pick us up and we begged her to rent us a car but she didn't want to take the responsibility for us. It was a sad and silent ride back to Boston. ------------------------------ From: EvilDieff@aol.com Date: Fri, 11 Apr 1997 17:43:06 -0400 (EDT) Subject: you can't go home... >First of all, it's ok to say that the Misfits aren't the same without Glenn.

Static Age said "Anyone ever notice the end of The Clash's "Safe European Home" is almost identical to the chorus of "Ruby Soho" by Rancid?" As much as I actually like Rancid (and I do), they are getting close to be a Clash Tribute band.,,,, Mike Inzo said "About the Circle Jerks, if you're going to talk about them, then atleast >mention the important thing, Did Chuck ever record anything with them >and did he ever record with Black Flag? I saw a Cirlce Jerks live cd >about a year ago, was Chuck on that?" Circle Jerks live disc, called Gig, does not have Chuck on it. In fact, the only tune he recorded with them was the acoustic version of When the Shit Hits the Fan for the Repo Man soundtrack. In the movie, he is actually seen playing guitar i believe (acoustic). He never recoreded anything with BF. DHermann said "The UNDEAD was on that bill. It >was originally TENPOLE TUDOR and The UNDEAD, but TEN POLE couldn't get >into the country, so they added The Misfits and HEART ATTACK For the rest of you who might not know it (I'm sure DHermann does) Tenpole Tudor is that obnoxious asshole in the Sex Pistols Great Rock 'n' Rol Swindle who was vacuuming the floor and running the conession stand singing "Who Killed Bambi". He also sang "Rock around the Clock" and "Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle" songs. "Oi, Tenpole, we got one of them sex pistols in there!" Fiend867 said "Who does the background singing and WOAHS and GOes??" I would say Jerry and maybe Chud. Jerry for sure as he does them live. Mark? Luther the Greek said "I don't think that it would be a good idea to have DRI opening for the >Misfits. I like DRI, but at a Misfits show, you can't expect people to care for the opening band. " Sure you can. I saw GBH, Agnostic Front and DRI in 1986 on the same bill and the crowd went nuts for all the bands. Same when Gang Green opened for the Circle Jerks or Kraut for the Dead Kennedys. If its a good band, people will dig it, if its a local bunch of nobodys, people yell to get them the fuck off! Michael L Forte said " First of all, it's ok to say that the Misfits >aren't the same without Glenn. I happen to agree with that. They're >not the same. That does not give you any right to say they suck now. Sure it does. While I happened to enjoy all the Misfits shows I went to last year, I wasnt too crazy about the new songs, and if I think they suck, I have every god given right to say they suck, even though I am a big fan of the band. Who is the truest fan, one that likes everything a band does, regardless if its good or bad, or one that is honest and says "if it sucks it sucks". There is no band that I like that has never put out a sucky album, except the 'fits. If they put one out now, so be it.

Subject: Horror movie, etc Date: Fri, 11 Apr 1997 18:15:37 -0400 (EDT) Hi, I got a stupid question, what recent horror movie should the new Misfits use as a influence for a new song? My bet would be Brain Dead AKA Dead Alive by Peter Jackson, they could sing about the Rat-Monkeys turning people in zombies! oh well... on a another note, I am collecting Uncut Horror and Asian films ("legit" bootleg that you buy in add in Fango or such) I have about 30 Titles, mostly Hong-Kong films, but Also many great Horror Gems, if anyone wants to trade, let me know!

Jerry really is a class act. At the August 16th show from the Resurrection Tour in San Bernandino I went to, he was exactly that. In already being the best night of my life, I didn't it think could get any better. But it did. After the Misfits were done playing, they must have stayed for over an hour talking to the fans. Actually, only Jerry and Chud talked to the fans after the concert. Doyle and Michale took off backstage. Jerry signed anything you brought up to him, including under some guy's Crimson Ghost tattoo. I had him and Chud sign my ticket stub, as well a laminated Misfits meet Vampira picture. He was like "Wow, where'd you get that? That's an old picture." Chud signed his name over Danzig's chest. But then again, his only other options were over Vampira or Doyle. Anyways, I asked Jerry and Chud questions like "Are you guys ever gonna put out TAB books?". They both told me that "they were trying to. Maybe soon." Hopefully now that there on a major label, tab books will become a reality. Also, I asked Jerry if it was okay that our band use the name "Green Hell". He said something like "hell yeah. We don't own the name. Go ahead." I was in awe. Here I was, talking to Jerry Only. A founding member of the MiSFiTs. I never even thought I'd see them live, let alone talk to a member! Who'd a thought they would return. Aren't we all so lucky? BTW - anyone know where I could get an video or audio tape of the show I attended? It was August 16th, 1996, at the San Bernardino Arena, San Bernardino, CA. It would kick ass if someone could lead me to finding this. Email me at Thanks. -Tim ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 11 Apr 1997 16:44:17 -0400 From: "You meddling kids..."

THE ALBUM IS INCREDIBLE!!!!! Anyone who says its not is listening to the wrong CD!!! I am so incredibly happy right now, because a band I grew up loving is back in a big way. The album has songs in the Walk Among us style, the EAD style and even a newer style which still rocks. On a different note, i just wanted to make sure that everyone knows that there is a guy by the name of mark kennedy who ROCKS. Thanks mark for everything youve done with the site and the bible.

Can you tell > me the long story on how she got involved with the Jerks? Thanks. > > -Tim OK. What happened is actually quite simple. Niko Bolas, (best known for his work with Neil Young, including Rocking In The Free World and This Note's For You) who produced, recorded and mixed the Circle Jerks' Oddities... album, was also mixing Debbie Gibson's Think With Your Heart album at the time, and for whatever reason, invited Debbie to the studio where the Jerks were recording to do backups. Apparently Debbie liked the idea enough not only to do the guest appearance, but to sit in with the band when they played at CBGB's during their '95 tour, and this made Rolling Stone's Random Notes section, complete with a picture of Debbie in a Circle Jerks T-shirt onstage with Keith Morris. So now... the Circle Jerks and Debbie Gibson have something in common other than having all of both artists' albums in my collection! *lol* CJ (fmg) ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 12 Apr 1997 00:38:34 +0000 From: scooter Subject: sweet insanity like a black tranquility fiends- ive received a number of emails requesting a tape of american psycho since i stated i had the promo. im sorry but i cant do it. #1-im in school and i work a lot-i just dont have the time #2-i wouldnt want to make money off this -im just lucky to have a copy and i certainly wouldnt want to make money off the misfits' hard work, especially after theyve been screwed for the last 13 years or so. #3- i know damn well someone would be happy with a dub and wouldnt want to get the album on the 13th. this is my main reason--i dont want to keep the misfits from getting credit for even one record.ive got a promo but ill definitely buy a copy on may 13. anyway- i work at a bar as a dj-and i have a few friends up there who love the misfits -- usually i play a couple old tunes --last caress, hatebreeders,-anyways -- they were all flipping when i pulled out the promo -- i played about 7 tunes and they loved every one. this one dude's been bitchin about michales voice ever since the show last year--"he needs to sing louder - icouldnt hear him"--im like - "dude it was live and everyone was slamming, the speaker was in your ear"-- he was blown away when i started off with hell night and played resurrection--everybody in the whole place was into that one and dont open till doomsday.day of the dead is definitely a pleaser in the bar. im really impressed with the quality of the lyrics in these songs, the choruses are all here too, not to mention the INCREDIBLE guitars. i hate to say it but i never expected this album to be THIS GOOD!!!

They kicked major ass! Anthrax was the last band to play before the 'Fits, and the crowd was just as enthusiastic for 'Thrax as for the 'Fits, so I don't think that having another major band on the bill is bad for the Misfits tour. Also, Micale Graves was NOT at that show. Rumor at the Agora was that he was spending the night courtesy of the Cleveland Police Dept. (Mark, do you know anything about that?) However, as the band was playing, Dr. Chud and Jerry started singing, leaving Micales mike stand abandoned. Fiends from the pit soon took over the vocal duties. After Jerry reprimanded the secruity guards not to throw the kids off stage, the party began. Fiends were allowed to sing one song at a time, then dove back into the crowd. Soon Scoot Ian, and John Bush from 'Thrax were on stage, as well as guys from Pro Pain and other bands that had performed that night. In short it was one of the most incredible concerts I've ever seen. There was no barrier between the band and the fans. Everyone was there for the same reason, to party. One fiend even told Jerry he knew "Blacklight", so the band got to do one new song for the crowd. Also, I went to a convention in Akron, OH and picked up a copy of Collections II on green vinyl for $12.00. I think I got a good deal, what do you think Tammy? The stuff is out there, although only two dealers had 'Fits stuff where I was, it was a small show. Stay Sick! Wolfsblood. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Enter of your own free will. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 13 Apr 1997 00:29:30 -0400 From: zycki Subject: Prophecy II Ashtown I thought this would be interesting considering all the talk of Danzig starring in movies [found on the COMING ATTRACTIONS BY CORONA web site].

I have no preferences as to pressing or coloured vinyl but I do not wish to spend a fortune on it. If any fiends out there can help me out, email me : dvickers@tor.hyde.ca Answers to questions: 1) Real and Bible name: David Vickers, born in Dorset, England. 2) What I do: I'm a coop accounting student at Brock U, currently working in Toronto, Canada. 3) How I got into the Misfits: When a friend of mine found out I liked Danzig ( Lucifuge era) he lent me his Beware bootleg and I've been a fan ever since. I became a Bible member after discovering it's existence while playing aropund on the computer. 4) Other interests: Biking, skateboarding (since '88) and crticising others. Other music: Clutch, Monster Magnet, Skinny Puppy, Nick Cave, Faith No More are some of my consistent favourites. 5) Last book: 'The Wars' by Timothy Findley and currently 'Sacrament' by Clive Barker. The Danzig vs. Moby article in Alternative Press is very interesting. It's probably the most Glenn's talked about the Misfits in ages. Check it out. Does anyone know if there's any truth to what Glenn says in it about a Boston Misfits show where only around 30 people showed up? That's unfortunate if it is true. A big FUCK YOU to the guy selling Zippos and the R&B loving asshole advertising some wrestling shit. You guys make this world a worse place for everyone. Since this is probably the last time I'll post, I'll say thanks to Mark for putting this whole thing together and keeping it going for so long. Truly one of the good guys.

It's fun. The only thing is I play bass. I feel a band forming ha ha. Now to answer the Misfits questions. 1. Who am I and where am I from? My real name is Dave Schultz (not the wrestler, the football player, or the hockey) player. I have the Bible name Voogy, cuz all the cool names has been taken. I'm from IL and I will be 25 on April 14. 2.What do I do? I am a student at Elgin's ECC. 3.How did I get into the Misfits. When I was a freshmen I loved the songs Last Caress and Green Hell by Metallica, I thought they where Metsllica songs. When I was a sophmore I went through my freind's tape collection and saw Earth AD. When I saw the Green Hell song I said "Hey, didn't Metallica do this song first?" After hearing the tape I ran out and bought it. My JR year my freind (not the sameone) said check out this song and played Twist of Cain. Not knowing Glenn sang for the Misfits I became a big fan and bought his first two albums. Shortly after Highschool I found out Glenn was the same lead singer. I ran out and bought WAU and Collection 1. I also picked up the first Samhain album. by the summer of 93 I was a huge Misfits nut. All I would play is Misfits, Samhain, and Danzig's first two albums. I also like Danzig 4. 3& 5 Just didn't do much for me. 4.Other hobbies. I love movies (old horror films and all) I collect comics, Batman stuff Marvin the Martian stuff, and other odd things (like skulls) I also like to write. My friend Ben and I are working on a movie. I sould also like to do a Crimson Ghost flick some time. 5.Last book I read. Mike, Spike, Slackers, and Dikes. It sucked. ThAT'S ALL!!!!

Maybe it was Glenn's way of saying he felt "bound" by the Misfits. Then again I may be reading too deep in this one. Jim ------------------------------ Subject: my coat god???? From: MATT G FUELBERTH Date: Mon, 14 Apr 1997 00:44:33 EDT I've been reading the bible for a while now and this is my first post. I've been wanting to post for awhile now, but unsure what to write about. So, I have decided to tell about an experience I had the other night in Wal-Mart. I was doing some shopping and was walking down the isle, and heard this kid yell at me, "You're coat is god!" I turned around to see this little kid wearing a misfits t-shirt, had to be about 13 or 14. See i have MISFITS and a pic of the crimson ghost painted on the back of my leather jacket. Well, anyway I guess this constitutes as a misfits sighting....or not...whatever.

Hello fiends... first, i have to clear this up. i got several e-mails about the show dates i posted. when i post dates on a Friday, they are for ***RECORD CONVENTIONS*** these are not dates for Misfits Shows. didn't anyone think it would be odd that the Misfits would or even could play 20+ cities on the same day? So, did anyone go and luck out? Someone asked if Chuck Biscuits played in the Circle Jerks and if anything was recorded. Yes he did and yes there was. The funny was he did not play drums, but guitar and the song was When the Shit Hits the Fan from the Repoman soundtrack. also this was a topic on the bible quite some time ago and i gave Mark all the details and you can find it on Misfits Central. to all the Misfits 101 users, i got moved by Mark and you can find the original run down of all the original Misfits Vinyl in the Discography Section. just scroll down and you will see my name and Misfits 101.

If you're in the listener area . . . tune us in. We had a major falling out with out manager this weekend, so I don't know how this is gonna affect our upcoming gigs in the midwest. I'm gonna try to salvage whatever may have been booked. If you've seen an upcoming TIMES SQUARE show, in your area, advertised - get in touch with me right away so I can confirm things. This was pretty sudden, but Jill doesn't take to sexual harassment too well. He should recover, with no permanent damage. ------------------------------ From: Fiend Subject: Re: Misfits Bible #321 Date: Mon, 14 Apr 1997 04:04:54 -0400 (EDT) > From: AZAWODNY > Fiend867 said "Who does the background singing and WOAHS and GOes??" > I would say Jerry and maybe Chud.

By the way fiends, I made some changes to the Misfits Central site, and there may be a few bugs for a while... I know the pictures page is horrendous looking, and I am also aware of the fact that none of my pictures or back issue bible links work. That's not my fault - the music archive server crashed and they were all lost, for now at least... Also, I just want to apologize here for coming down so hard last issue on good old Dave Naked. Sorry, Dave. Next - the Misfits Bible shirts - I was hoping they'd be ready now, but Corey, the t-shirt man, has left for Europe with the band, so the shirts won't be ready until the summer at the earliest.

And then he bought 1st press of november coming fire, with skip on track 1, for 50 crowns (about $6). Why are the bible shirts so damn late?

First CG said "This thread is getting silly. The fact of the matter is ALL of the >old-school punk was released on majors or large indies. Back then good >was picked up, period. Then Gramps said >Bullshit. My thesis would probably be the opposite: good music wasn't >.From 1977-1982, punk bands (not hardcore, even!) in the US alone (don't >started on foreign countries)...great bands who weren't picked up for >(probably because they know not to go to a sucky label who tells them what >maybe because they're too obscure): and goes on to list a hundred bands, 1/2 of which most of us never heard of. Its obvious that what you consider good and what other folks consider good must differ. The fact is you list all punk/hardcore bands and say "good music" wasn't picked up at all. There is alot more to music than punk/hardcore, and if thats all you listen to you are really missing out on alot. I dont want to drag this discussion on any longer, because its obvious from the above posts, and other side discussions we've had, that you have your opinion, I have mine, CG has his, and let's leave it at that.. Onto tape news ... I have harvested the first 19 songs for the "From Hell They Came ... " tape/CD clocking in at around 43 minutes. Alot of cool stuff. I am awaiting some last minute stragglers to get their material to me and then Keith and I will begin distributing. I will make this tape 60 minutes with tunes from the bands I already have if I don't receive any more contributions. Again, for those that want CDs, and some of you have already let me know, please let me know in advance as I only plan to make enough CDs for those who ask for them.

Now in Bible #320 Luther the Geek said >DRI >I don't think that it would be a good idea to have DRI opening for the >Misfits. I like DRI, but at a Misfits show, you can't expect people to >care for the opening band. That's why they have Sardonica, people don't >care for that band. Don't get me wrong, I saw them in Toronto and I >thought they were good, but they don't have any records and nobody knows >them. Oh on the contrary,I think a great opening band makes the eveing much more enjoyable.And one to rememeber for a long time.It can make the time pass alot more quickly.You see if there is a great opening act like DRI your up enjoying getting right into them.As opposed to Sardonica your sitting there looking at your watch,oh man these guys have played way to long when are the 'Fits coming on?Then after the crappy opening band is done people just whine and complain.Which like I said makes the night go alot slower and less enjoyable.I've only seen DRI twice each time blew me away and everybody else. Nobody knows them and don't have any records.Where have you been son?well it depends how old you are I guess.They have been around since at least '85 and have quite a few discs out.DRI really took off when thrash-metal started getting popular like in the early 90's.It's to bad these guys are not more "popular" like succeses wise,cause they are one of the best and most hardest working bands to come from that era.Nuff said sorry about the length. //Brad// "Austin 3:16 says I just whipped your ass!" ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Apr 1997 10:55:52 -0400 From: Tarry Carapezza Subject: Part 1 This Bible post is broken up into three parts for easier digestion. Part 1: The Show Saw our man Jake Starr's band Adam West at the 9:30 Club here in DC on Saturday. For those not familiar with the 9:30, it is THE club in DC. I saw The Misfits for the first time there last year. The 9:30 is where all the major tours stop in DC. I've seen Luscious Jackson, the Genitorturers, Fugazi, the Pogues, ect... there. You get the picture. Seeing Adam West there was a real treat. I mean, seeing Adam West at the same place I first saw the Misfits, how cool is that! Getting to hang backstage at the 9:30 was the bomb. The door price ($8) was a downer, but I drank my fair share of the beer backstage. (sorry guys) Got to meet Jake Starr's dad too. He was a real cool guy. Getting to see Adam West play with a real P.A. was also rockin'. These guys are so good. Their energy for this show was through the roof. You could tell they were stoked to be playing the 9:30. The sound was the best I've heard from them ever, despite one pulled cord. They pulled out all the stops fer this one, including having go-go dancers (I kid you not) for 4 or 5 songs. There was even some freak who thought he knew the chorus to the song 'Speedbump' and tried to sing with Jake. (o.k., that was me) ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Apr 1997 10:56:00 -0400 From: Tarry Carapezza Subject: Part 2 Part 2: the CD What also made the show special was that it was the release party for Adam West's long awaited CD 'Mondo Royale'. I got a copy at the show. The cover is way cool, and features friend of the band Trixie. Turns out Trixie was also one of the featured go-go dancers of the evening. Before I talk about the music, I have to share a personal moment. I couldn't wait to get home, so I took the plastic off the CD on the Metro. I was reading the lyrics & liner notes, and then I saw it.... There was my name in the 'Thank Yous'. In fact, Mark Kennedy, D-Rod, Denmom, and CG are all in the Thank Yous by name, and the entire Misfits Bible in mentioned too. If that's not reason enough to buy this CD, I don't know what is. Just so everyone knows, all the songs on this CD are new. None of the 7" songs from the past are on it. They did a great job capturing their 'sound' on the CD. All the energy is there, the booming bass is there, the wha-wha pedal is there, all the things that make Adam West Adam West are there. My favorite songs so far are 'Upside Down', 'Speed Bump', 'Wrong Way Ronnie' & 'Woke Up On the Ceiling'. They also do an interesting cover of Velvet Underground's 'Venus in Furs'. Bottom Line, get the CD! E-mail Jake Starr right now! If you happen to live in the DC area, or if yer gonna visit anytime soon, Tower Records is carrying it as well. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Apr 1997 10:56:05 -0400 From: Tarry Carapezza Subject: Part 3 Part 3: The Scoop Some of you may not care about this, if not just scroll down. I happened to run into Ian MacKaye at the Adam West show on Saturday. He said Fugazi wouldn't be playing in DC for a while. He explained that while on tour in Australia, he suffered from a collapsed lung. He was hospitalized for 10+ days in Australia, and they canceled the dates for Australia and New Zealand. They will eventually do make up dates sometime this year. He said they are working on their new record, but the live home video project has been put off 'till September. I asked him if he had heard the new Rollins Band CD yet, he said he had. But he said the more they produce their records, the further they get away from what he thinks is their true sound. I couldn't agree more. Then he said, "I think their best work is the stuff I produced". While I totally agree that 'Do It' it leagues better than the new one, I think it's just funny to hear someone say , 'they were cool when they were my band, now they suck'. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Apr 1997 13:48:43 -0400 (EDT) From: "The Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs At Midnight" Subject: Perfect Crime My friend got the collection, and said it's not there.

PUNKTURE YOU ARE AN IDIOT (unless you are kidding about the shit you say, if so you are one funny fucker). i haven't heard the new misfits album but i have seen bootleg video and it wasn't that bad. i'm not making any decisions right now on the guys, but i think that anyone who says they suck has that right and shouldn't be attacked for their opinion (hey what happened to open mindedness here?) afterall there are some old misfits songs that i think suck ass. and even though i'm sure you don't care, i'm gonna tell you anyway 1.children in heat 2.teenagers from mars 3.bloodfeast 4.hell, almost all of earth a.d. now attack me for my opinion you lame ass "punk rockers" joe ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 13 Apr 1997 12:59:04 -0500 (EST) From: Stephen Gorny Subject: Re: Jerry's bootlegging and first punk signers Ok - I think that the assumption that Bobby may be allowing bootlegs to be released/recorded is logical. It is a way around paying royalties for releasing these songs on CD. I mean - I firmly believe Kiss had something to do with the leak of their unreleased 1996 album Carnival of Souls, as well as some of the other very high quality Kiss bootlegs out there. It may or may not be true - but it does make sense. As for the first "punk" band to sign with a major label - several people have offered up several different answers to this. I guess it depends (as one person pointed out) on what your definition of "punk" is. For example, some would call the NY Dolls punk - others wouldn't, and they released their first album in 72 or 73. The Clah's first came out in 75. As for the "official" Sex Pistols releases - there are also multiple versions of both Never Mind the Bollocks and Swindle. As for the others, yes Virgin has capitalized on the success by officially releasing some former bootleg material of demos and such, and some of these early demos are much better than the Bollocks versions, before their producer helped Steve and Paul to develop their "wall of sound". BTW - did you know that Glen Matlock, although no longer in the band, played bass on almost every track of Bollocks cuz Sid couldn't do it. Yeah Art - the D Gen tapes were cool - thanx. When is the Static Age CD scheduled for release - anyone know?? +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Stephen Gorny + There is an old truism which is often Department of Psychology + forgotten by the proponents of University of MD Baltimore County + political correctness: 1000 Hilltop Circle + Baltimore, MD 21250 + "You can't please all of the people + all of the time" sgorny1@umbc2.umbc.edu + ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Apr 1997 15:09:27 -0230 (NDT) From: Shaun Young Subject: fun, fun, 'til satan cums you guys are all satanic, so my mom says i should unsubsribe!!

Cheers j. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Apr 97 14:14:34 EDT From: Will Plummer Subject: My summer vacation It started out as the regular yearly trip to the Catamaroon islands with Mommy and Sis. Daddy had far too much important work to do but he promised he would catch up with us at the "clubhouse" ( his pet name for our little beach bungalow). Without Daddy I knew that I would be the "man of the house" eveen though we would not really be in the house at all but out chasing horseshoe crabs across the dunes and reenacting our favorite scenes from the crow, of course I always got to be Brandon, so tortured yet so strong and resolved. But I'm digressing, the real fun started one crisp , clear morning as we took our first of many constitutionals along the sands of Albuquompinog sound. I was wearing my new surf clam diggers and pylon crew tee( J. Crew catalog, Spring 97 p.54) and feeling quite confidant about my place in the world. I felt a bit mischievous and I thought it would be a real hoot if I ran ahead and hid behind a sand dune until just the perfect moment when I would leap from my secret spot and do a raucously scandalous impression of Dom Delouse from the final scene of The Apple Dumpling Gang, in my opinion his greatest work. I saw myy opportunity when Mommy and Sis stopped to pick up a syringe that had floa! ted into one of the tidal pools. I ran as if I were the goddess Protacrenus herself and bounded headfirst over the largest sand dune I could find. You can imagine my surprise when instead of landing in a softly crumbling pile of mussel shells and seaweed I went face first into Glen Danzig. After apologizing for my rudeness , I could barely contain my torent of emotions and quickly showered him with praise, telling him how sometimes I too felt just like a teenager from mars and i too didn't care. He was about to explain his sleeping in the sand dunes when it occured to me that my birthday party was thet night and wouldn't it be just smashing if he came. When I offered the plan he was so enthusiastic he grabbed me and tried to kiss me on the mouth. At the last moment before our lips met I realized that Mommy and Sis woul;d be wheeling around that bend at any momenmt so I politely slipped from his grip and told him I would see him at the party. When I told Mommy and Sis they didn't believe me and for some reason Glenny never showed up at my party. But that's O.K. he probably had to go " Where eagles Dare" if you know what I mean , and I think you do. ------------------------------ From: MISFITS337@aol.com Date: Mon, 14 Apr 1997 15:40:59 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Re: Misfits Bible #321 i hung out with joey ramone and cj ramone down in the basement at coney island high and they are both great guys. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Apr 1997 13:24:23 -0700 From: Neil McAllister Subject: Re>Misfits Bible #321 Matt G.

I've asked `Tammy bout this, and I don't think she said anywhere this. I would steal a copy from my bro's work if I knew that it was worth that much. For my own collection of course. I mean, if it's that "rare", why would I want to sell it? and then the Misfits "Box Set" 4xCD set in a coffin, first press, sealed $75? $75???? I could still get it for under $50 sealed. And was there really such thing as a first pressing for that? And then you try to sell the Violent World CD for $15? Hopefully that's with shipping and handling cause I can still find that for under $12 here. I don't know. Maybe your just trying to "help" some of us out that can't find some of these things. I guess the tribute album might be reasonable for overseas Fiends that can't find it, but the rest? I don't know, Paul, I don't know. -------What I DO know however is that Rollins Band is on Saturday Night Live this saturday. The new album kicks ass. I heard it at my bro's work (a college radio station), and liked it. Check it out. Also, this is too late, but I just figured out this morning. Patty Hearst is on Conan O'Brian tonight (Monday, the 14th). Of course, it will be the 16th when you read this, so sorry. Did everybody watch that Dateline NBC show a couple of weeks ago about her after I bugged you all to do so? After all, she's part of our `fistory. <------- my lame attempt at combining the words Misfits with history. got any suggestions? -Tim ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Apr 1997 20:27:43 +0100 From: JOHN KLINGNER Subject: Action Park show video I was at the 8/31/96 show at Action Park in Vernon and I'm sure you've heard this 1,000 times, but does anyone know how I can get a video?The only video I have of the Misfits is from a public access show in Detroit called "Why Be Something You're Not" from 1983 and , well, they sound like shit.I need good quality!!!

I just thought that it could be fun for you all to see what Jerry Only told a Swedish magazine called Close-Up (sells around 2 million issues / magazine). The new line up is on the cover and its in Swedish so Im sorry if the translation gets weird - Im sure I messed up spelling and grammar... oh well, hopefully it makes some sense. Here are some of the stuff Jerry said: "... When it comes to the lyrics, there is one major thing that is unusual today - they are very strong, but contains no cussing whatsoever. The title "American Pshyco" dont just point to the book, it points to us too. We are a bunch of crazy Americans that travels around the world and makes hella much noise." "...We met (Michale) through our old sound man George Jermaine. He works in a studio in the city Lodi in New Jersey, were we originate from. I had a cassette which was recorded during a concert 1977 or 1978, where we played "Blue Christmas". The instruments was badly recorded, but Glenns vocals was awesome, so we went to Lodi and recorded the music again. When we were in the studio, the owner came and told us about Michale who then was in a local band, since he knew we were looking for a new singer." "Glenn could usually only sing around a hour before he got tired, but we have done shows with Michale that lasted over two hours.... He (Michale) is a really cool guy, he is like a little brother for me and both my wife and my kids love him. I much rather fail with Michale behind the mic then win with Glenn. It is that simple." "But to be totally honest, it wasnt the abscence of Glenn as frontman that I was most worried about. With the fact that he wrote the large part of the songs in mind, I was mostly worried that that part would be the hardest. But look at how it turned out, we wrote new 35 songs in two months.... We do fine without Glenn, and Im sure people will realize that when they hear "American Psycho"." "I really only liked the Snapcase and Farside versions (of Violent World of course). The other stuff is good, but it didnt knock me out. I think its a good example of Carolines bad taste to release a tribute right before we release "American Psycho", that was really a blow below the belt. Because we are a new band now, so I thought they could let us release our first record before they made us into dinosaurs with a tribute." "But, that is Caroline. They dont give a shit about us, except selling our records." What does Misfits have that no other group has? Jerry figures it is honesty: "All new music deals with violence - or worse - politics. I would rather sit at home, eat popcorn and watch a black and white monster movie than care about politics. The way I see it, Misfits has a place in todays music. Misfits aint something you just can say is in the past. Our concept is so powerful that it do not matter if the rice price in China goes up or down, we are not controlled by any trends or whats hot for the moment. Rolling Stones are Rolling Stones, Beatles are Beatles and Misfits are Misfits - we have our place. Now its our time to show what we are about and stand for." And that, ladies and gentlemen, we should only be grateful about. (End of article) A question: What does the "Left hand black" thing mean? Its in both Danzig and Samhain songs... would love to find out what that is about..... thanks in advance :) Have a good one, Cenobite ------------------------------ Date: 15 APR 97 17:29:57 EDT From: AZawodny@mobile.bam.com Subject: oh yea...

UPDATE AND DEADLINE Hey there Fiends, Myself and AZ have decided to set a deadline for tape entries into the Bible Bands Tribute To The Misfits: "From Hell They Came..." THIS DEADLINE IS MAY 1ST, 1997 This gives everyone two weeks to record whatever you want to send for the tape. After that, AZ and I will have some last minute work to do, to get this thing ready for you all to hear. SO GET THOSE TAPES TO US! Here's the latest info on the project: Kevin Kuder has submitted a great piece of art for the cover of the tape and/or CD. This artwork is really cool and is worth the price of the tape just to get this excellent drawing. Picture the cover of Earth AD, only, its in this evil church and the Chrimson Ghost is in the middle, at the alter, dressed like a priest, and the pews are lined with all kinds of freaky looking ghouls. If you want to get a good idea of Kevin's brilliant work, I urge everyone to check out his webpage at: http://www.student.toplinks.com/hp/Kuder/ Kevin also has a great Misfits related package for sale called the Misfits portfolio. He used to have this to view on one of his pages, but none the less, if you cant find it, perhaps Kevin can point the way with more info. His e-mail addy is: klk@gwis.com Please check his stuff out, it's great. John Andino from Green Hell has also drawn something for the project but I have yet to receive this. Tim, e-mail me if you have already sent this or let me know when it's coming. The following bands have submitted music that I have sent out to AZ and he has already worked on, and will be included on the tape: 1. Devilock 2. The Idiot Police 3. The Fiend Club 4. The Unfits 5. Undermine 6. Peanut Butter Scar 7. Cunt 8. Silent Noise 9. Solefish 10. Bane 11. "138" 12. Alcoholaust 13. Nightbreed 14. And this one has me confused. We received a tape of a band from Jake Starr, this tape was submitted for Jake's 7" and is a rendition of "I Turned Into A Martian" by a ska-type band. If you are in this band or know who they are, please e-mail us with more info. The following bands have contacted ME or AZ, but havent sent their tapes yet and need to get their asses in gear: 1. The Disgruntled Postal Workers 2. Separate Path 3. Green Hell 4. The Scapegoats 5. Ghosthouse 6. The Ninjas / THX1138 / Fernspank 7. Vincent Price (the band, not the guy) 8. Ripsnorter 9. Angelsin 10. Deathcamp (?) (Ryan Weedon) 11. Realm 12. The Fleshworms 13. Stewart Gallacher (although you just e-mailed me) Hey guys and gals, e-mail me if you're on this list and give me an update on where or when these tapes are gonna arrive. Also, Jake Starr has also been kind enough to send out left over tapes from bands that did not make it to the "4 Hits" EP. But, even if you were one of these bands, please still send tapes to us as he does not have everything that was sent to him. Send tapes to Noss or AZ: "From Hell They Came..." C\O Keith Noss 61 East Duncan St. Columbus, Oh. 43202 Art Zawodny PO BOX 210 Pluckemin, NJ 07978. Remember, if you send a tape, also send any other info you can for the bio.

Friday My band played a show and I saw some guy there that I knew. He said he had the promo to the new Misfits album and we went out to his car to listen to it. I stood outside the car and listened to most of it. I am not saying it was good or bad. I am just warning you what to expect. Some of you will like my desctription and will love it and some will hate it. Here it goes. I'm not going to review songs. This album is a cross between the Misfits and Kryst The Conqeror. There is definetly a heavy metal feel to it. The whole thing isn't Metallica palm muted riffs, but it has that feel and there are actuallt palm mutes. It's very musical. Like, I heard parts where everyone would stop and let Doyle do quick heavy metal lead scales. I heard parts where everyone would speed up into the thrash thing. It sounds like they're trying to appeal to the thrash audience. The reason I'm not going to be mad when I get it is because I don't think it's the Misfits so it's not going to bother me. I RESPECTFULLY THINK IT IS JERRY AND DOYLE'S NEW BAND. When I went to see the Misfits at the Fillmore in S.F. back in August, I was more like "I'm going to see Jerry and Doyle in real life." Than I was, "It's the Misfits!" They didn't have to call themselves the Misfits, it's a new band. Soon they will be playing mostly new songs anyway. It's not the Misfits and there's nothing wrong with that. There are whoa oh's. but it's got an 80's metal feel to it. You have to keep in mind while listening to this that Jerry and Doyle's favorite bands are Judas Priest and Iron Maiden. That's why it's more metal than punk. I don't think that this album is going to ever be as timeless as the older stuff. How classic do you think the chorus "You're never gonna catch me, you're never gonna catch me, you're never gonna catch me, I'm the Crimson Ghost" is??? I'm going to buy it and there will be some songs on it I like maybe I'll grow to like the whole thing. Heck, I didn't like The Misfits when I first heard them. But this is truelly something new and we have to take it as that. Jerry said he was going to start where the Misfits left off. In a way, he did cuz it has an 80's feel to it. There, be warned! Strange Samhain thing. Tonight I was watching a video tape from my video camera. The tape was stuff all from 1993. There was footage of me trying to play guitar when I first started. I couldn't even play full power chords. I was just playing the root note and the fifith. My guitar was out of tune too. The riff I was playing on my guitar sounded cool so I concentrated on it and low and behold, I was playing the chorus to The Hungry End in the same rythem and everything. The A B G Gb. That was 93' I didn't start listening to Samhain till about a year ago. It was a weird find. :) Remember I'm looking for a replica boot of Horror Business, NOTLD, 3 Hits, and Halloween. with inserts. From posting in here, I'm already trading a guy a Harlock shirt for a cough/cool boot so posting in here is working. If I keep posting, eventually someone in here, for example is going to get sick of their HB boot, see my post and sell or trade it to me. :) I am also looking for the AngelFuck boot (Maryln on cover) and the Static Age Demo E.P boot. Questions 1) Why didn't Caroline ask to put out the new "Misfits" album? American Psycho not being on Caroline leads me to beleive they're doing it for the money and will break up after their first contract is complete. 2) How did Glenns nose get broken inabling him to get 2 nose jobs? 3)I heard Mike Muir beat Glenn up extensivly in the pit one time at some show. Is that true? 4) What "trouble" would Doyle have been in if he didn't go along with the resurrection? Someone in here said something about that. Like was it money he owed or something? 5)I didn't expect the Evilive reissue on CD and LP to come out this soon. When is the Static Age Album coming out? Is it going to have the original cover planned on it? Are they going to remix it again? if you listen, on most of the songs YOU CAN BARELY HEAR THE SNARE DRUM!!!!!!! Isn't the two extra tracks to be released on it Spinal Remains with different lyrics and some version of She? 6) Any news on the Sawin box set? As far as not understanding Glenn's lyrics, I have to funny ones. On Martian I thought he said "Times like this I wanna slit my throat." but it's "Times like this I hardly never sleep at night." my version makes more sense. On Black Dream I used to think he said "Pretty pretty pretty black boy, your lips are hung up a pole." but it's "Pretty.....Black one, your lips I hunger for." Listen to it; it sounds like it. And on Killer Wolf Before I read the lyrics, I thought he said "I killed a mexican" but I found out it was "I curl up next to you." Anyone ever notice that Damian had atleast 3 different Ibanez Iceman guitar's? That was the exclusive Doyle guitar. kinda weird. Oh and before I go, don'cha think Eerie's collection is priced a little high? I think it's priced that way cuz we think we'll pay it cuz it's from "Eerie Von!" One thing about that though, I'm sure everything is in super mint condition.

But after seeing all the posts and private email I got from that made me realize that we are not different. I mean I am not the typical fiend but I am sure that we all do the same things like: 1. always check the Misfits section in a record store!( like there would be sumthin we wouldnt already have!) 2. Play an instrument to all the songs! 3. Incorporate little misfits sayings or sighting into our daily life! For example: My roomate weighs 138 Ib's <--mno shit ask bobby steele! 4. go mad when youi sing along to the song of the m isfits, how many people wish they had a chance to audition for michales job>? I mean there are little things like this that I do, and Know that some of you do as well. i know that when i see someone with a misfits shirt on or anything to do with the fits I go talk to them. maybe I am just a more putgoing person them the next but i just want to meet fellow fiends I want to tell them about the bible and I wat nothing more then to make the misfits tjhe most powerful band that has ever graced this earth! So share some stories of stuff you I will as well, and forget about all trhe bickering I want to read shit and say:" yeah I do that to or have it spark a misfit story that I have "---peace I love being a fiend! is'nt there such a sense of comunity amoung fiends!

Of course the Perfect Crime 7" was not included - it's not an official Misfits release. It was a bootleg put out around 1990. The bootleg features live material from '79 that is unavailable elsewhere. Caroline does not have access to this recording and will therefore never put it out, especially not on a box set.

Tour and I have to say, I was mightily impressed. I saw the Misfits just over a year ago at the London Astoria and to be honest it could have been a different band. Last time they were sloppy, the mix was dreadful (Graves might as well have not even been there) and there were only one, maybe two, new songs played. I'm not into giving the full set list (not that I can even remember it) but they played most of the usual 'old' set list plus around 6 or 7 new tracks, all but one of which were very, very impressive. As far as the Misfits Vs. Danzig thing goes I've always thought that there's no fair way to judge the 'new' Misfits until their own material is heard. All I can say is that I don't think people will feel let down by this new album. If the songs are as strong as the ones played live then I think most people will be a little surprised at just how 'Misfits' this album really is. The early comparisons that the new stuff is like Earth AD crossed with WAU seem spot on, the music echoes EAD while the vocals and melodies are most reminiscent of WAU, although one new track is maybe a little too close to the Hybrid Moments melody lines for comfort... Anyway, the show... they came out to the usual 'wall of noise' doomy music intro and just let rip totally. Chud's playing seems to have improved dramatically although his progression seems slight compared to Doyle's playing... Christ, the guy even managed to curtail his feedback once or twice between songs. Seriously, Doyle absolutely plays his ass off these days. For all you guitar demolition fans, it only took him half way through the second song (Horror Business) to destroy the first one! The image is overall the same as usual although Michale Graves does look a little silly in his Evil Dead 'grandma' blacked out teeth and make up. His voice is fine though, the mix is actually amazing on the new tour and his vocals are upfront and audible throughout... he DOES use a lot of effects on the newer stuff and on some of the older stuff such as Come Back. To his credit he did a fine job of whipping up the (notoriously apathetic) London crowd... the pit for the final half of the set must have numbered 300 out of the 800 present, mainly due to Graves' constant calls for people to get into the stuff. One hilarious moment came 4 songs into the set when Graves offered the mike to the crowd and some guy shouted 'Where the fuck's Glenn?'... Jerry shot Graves a weird 'Don't do anything' look and Doyle actually looked up for the one time during the entire show. Graves replied 'Up my ass' as Jerry shouted 'At home in bed'. It got even funnier when the guy in the crowd started yelling at Graves who then invited the guy on stage for a fight... as soon as the guy actually looked like he was getting up, Graves turned white (even under his facepaint!). At this point Doyle just strode over and raised his arm and the guy in the crowd practically lost his lunch into his trousers... Graves looked a bit dumb standing behind Doyle laughing though, talk about 'My brother's bigger than your brother'... All in all though the show was great... far, far better than they were last year and to be honest, I really did enjoy myself (something that just doesn't seem to happen too often at shows these days). Considering this was the first date of the tour these guys are either going to be totally stunning when they hit the States or totally knackered and useless... you can't ask for a band to give more then 100% and this time at least, that's just what they did. As for the supports... Sardonica were awful. Sal was chatting to people before and after the show and seems a genuinely nice guy but unfortunately the band's music just plain sucks. Did they copy Kryst or was it the other way round?? Sub Zero were much better, total NY hardcore with absolutely no frills but then that's what they're into. The singer was pretty wild and all in all they got a good response. I don't know how old the guys are but they can't be much over 20/21 years old so it's a little weird to hear them drum on constantly about 'Bringing it back to the old days man' but that's just a minor point. They'll go down well in Europe but I wouldn't mind betting there's a whole slew of very similar, and probably superior, bands in NY. One last thing, anyone else on the Bible from Britain that is going to one of the shows, please look out for a (really) fat guy in a terrible grey wool suit who is the promoter. The guy is a grade A asshole... really. It's a real shame that the Misfits have to go through a fool like him to book their tour. He managed to book one date in a club that's closed for this month, meaning the venue is now switched to one over 60 miles away which will have NO advance promotion (he'll be the first to whine when it doesn't make him any money) and booked them into a venue that was far too small in London and charged #10 a ticket (most other shows at the Garage go for #4 maybe #5). He has NO regard or respect for the Misfits and is purely in this for the money. He also promotes other hardcore/punk shows in London and is laughing at the people that go to these shows and the bands themselves. As one of many examples, the band had official posters for sale for #2 in the venue and this guy had gotten some printed up from the advance posters he'd been given and was selling them for #1 outside the venue after the show... a promoter bootlegging the band he's promoting?!? Jesus Christ. Unfortunately I couldn't get his name out of the lackeys he had with him (I think they could sense I was close to hitting the fucker) but anyone else who sees him should tell him to his face what a total asswipe he is... once you've actually gained entry to the venue of course :) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 16 Apr 1997 08:31:54 -0400 From: Scott Perry Subject: New misfits fan Hi, I just started listening to the misfit cause i herd they covered some of my favrite metallica songs, i herd they covered a guns n roses song I like two.

Well it depends how old you are I guess..." I'm 26 and have been a fan of DRI since Dealing with it came out. When I said "nobody knows them..." I was talking about Sardonica. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough. I would enjoy seeing DRI or any other band that I like opening for the Misfits, but I can tell from my experience that people don't have too much respect when they have to wait for THE band thay came to see. I saw the ramones 4 times and each time many people were screaming "ramones, ramones" during the entire set of the first band.

Charming words of praise for the label that put out supposedly the first Misfits release Jerry and Doyle ever made any money from -- a $60 box set (a little better profit margin than a single CD, I warrant). But I suppose Geffen are a much more nurturing and caring environment for a "DIY all the way" band like the new Misfits...? Anyone care to tell me WHY there isn't supposed to be any swearing on new Misfits songs? Didn't anyone tell Jerry MTV will bleep the naughty parts and you can still get your video on the air? Danzig's on a Disney-owned label now, and he still has a song about fucking corpses on his album... I just had my lungs pierced, anyone have any words of wisdom or advice?

First off, Stephen Gorny, I believe I've heard that Static Age will be released sometime in the fall, so with all the delays, figure by January at least. To everyone ragging on Paul Holstein. This is capitalism! If people will buy, let him sell stuff for whatever he wants. If you think it's a rip off, don't buy! Paul is very reliable and his prices are not by any means out of the ordinary. In fact, in many cases they're pretty good. Also, just because some of you can get deals on stuff, doesn't mean EVERYONE can.... Gordo, relax man. It's Wes Thomas, you must be new around here to react in such away. Does anyone else think Entombed is beginning to sound more and more like Danzig every day, at least the singer? Maybe it's the other way around. As far as the guy talking about Glenn getting back with the Misfits. The local radio station has mentioned a similair thing. I think that it is safe to say that the president of the Fiend Club who speaks with the band often is a bit more reliable than some guy who's secretary probably talked to somebody's agent about their client. Now, here is my review of American Psycho, if you don't care--page down. AND NO, I CANNOT TAPE THIS, so please don't bombard me with e-mails begging me to, seeing as I do not own a copy, I merely had the opportunity to hear it a few times. It will be out soon enough and if that isn't enough, I have heard that there are several listening parties, I know there is one in KY. Check your local cool record store. Brief intro notes. There is not a song on here that I do not like. They are all great and I am very happy with album. I was very hesitant my first time listening to it, as Graves sounded so different (than live, to me anyway), but after a few listens it not only grew on me, but I think this is their best work since 3 Hits From Hell. The music is definitely more metal than the previous work, it's got that very full sound, although it is 100% the Misfits. No solos, no Bruce Dickinson vocals, no false metal, wimps and poseurs leave the hall. I can't wait to get the CD and see the artwork, and the lyrics of course. Dr. Phibes--Intro, nothing those of us with boots or who have seen them live haven't heard. American Psycho--I was taken aback by Graves's vocals. Mainly the fact that he does not sound the way he does live. I reckon he changed his style out of fear of sounding like Glenn or something. Maybe I heard wrong. To me, he sounds like the guy from Testament in this one. Picture Testament doing a Misfits song correctly. Speak of the Devil--Great song. From memory, this doesn't sound too much like the live version from 11/2....I'll have to go back and listen again. Over all, great tune that gets you singing along even if it's your first time hearing it. Walk Among Us--Whoa.....okay the intro sounds strikingly like the Earth AD intro. However, it kicks in and it is definitely not Earth AD. Great tune, excellent vocals, good music. The Haunting--Not very different from the live versions except the vocals every so often lap over each other. My only gripe is that they put an echo on one of the "Go"s, so it almost sounds like you're listening to Biohazard covering the Misfits. ALMOST, not quite. .From Hell They Came--Once again, you're singing the refrain the first time you hear it. Fantastic song, obviously catchy, vocals a little closer to the live sound. Dig Up Her Bones--I like this one, but it strikes me as sounding like the guy Candlebox or Ugly Kid Joe doing a song with the Misfits. That is, it does NOT sound like either of those bands, but the vocals kinda sorta sound like them. Blacklight--I love the beginning of this song. Nothing different than the live versions although I don't think it has quite the original power. Ressurection--Okay....everyone I talk to LOVES this one, I have been told this is their best song ever. Like the band Dying Fetus, I think it's good, but not the best on the album and by no means not the best ever (which for today is Hybrid Moments). This Island Earth--the end of this song is the glorious part. I find they use the word "darling" a lot on this album. Crimson Ghost--if this was more cheezy it would be the best song on the album, but it's not quite there. This would almost fit on the Earth AD album if it weren't for the comic part, and I'd probably say it's the heaviest song on the album. I won't ruin the comedy for you, you'll find out when you hear it for yourself. You may not find it as funny as I do, but I was on the ground. Day of the Dead--Cool intro and outro. Vocally---"American Nightmare running scared." Glenn? Glenn? Is that you? There are similarities, but it's definitely Michale on the lower vocal range. The Haunting--Not as good as the many live versions, but isn't that always the case? Lyrics are a bit different....'cut my wrists and watch me bleed' instead of 'take my life just cleanse my sins' or whatever it was. Good track. Mars Attacks--I like this, but this was the biggest disappointment. The demo version which can be heard on the 6/2/96 bootleg is so much better. I hope that is the song they put on the 7" that they will supposedly put out at the end of the year. Hate the Living--Interesting. If Crimson Ghost isn't the heaviest, this is it. I like the singing parts and then the "HATE THE LIVING LOVE THE DEAD". Good song, I don't see how they can do this live, unless Jerry or the crowd does the HTLLTD line. Shining--My personal pick, this is the best song. The intro (and occassional part in the middle) are Queen Wasp...in fact I thought it was Queen Wasp for some time. The part in the middle and end, which I think has the name "Carol-Anne" in it are outstanding and make this song stick out. WHICH brings up a very good question. This song, from what I can tell, is about Poltergeist, so why is it called Shining? That I am next to positive the girl in Poltergeist was Carol Anne, I don't know about the Shining, though. Nevertheless, best song on the album. Better than most of the old stuff. Don't Open Til Doomsday--as traditional as you can get. Great tune a la 1982. Hell Night--Yet another song that gets you singing along right away. Chris ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 16 Apr 1997 18:20:32 -0500 From: Tony Bridges Subject: NEWFIEND!!!

I read this at Misfits Central - On March 8th, 1989, Jerry Only and Doyle attended a Metallica concert at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, NY. They brought a custom made guitar and a Horror Business drum skin for Kirk Hammet, as well as Max's Kansas City promotional posters from 1979 and a demo copy of the unreleased Kryst The Conqueror album (featuring the song "Wherever I Roam") for the rest of the band. In return, Jerry and Doyle received seats far from the stage and were heckled by security. Mysteriously, the next Metallica album included a song called "Wherever I May Roam." Does anybody know anything else about this? Did Metallica ever give any credit to Jerry and Doyle for it? -Tim ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 17 Apr 1997 10:19:52 +0100 From: Jake Starr Subject: ADAM WEST news! kids, here is the ADAM WEST news for today: TONITE!!!

They self-released their first LP Dirty Rotten LP in '83 [later re-mixed for CD and released on Rotten Records w/the Violent Pacification EP in the early "90s] followed by Violent Pacification in '84, Dealing With It [Metal Blade '85], Crossover [Metal Blade '87], Live at the Ritz [Metal Blade Video/LaserDisc '88], Four of a Kind [Metal Blade '88], Thrash Zone [Metal Blade '89, THIS release is when they started to get their new thrash-core sound] plus two more studio albums and a live album released on Rotten Records [along with re-releasing their whole catalogue from Metal Blade] that, in my opinion, doesn't match their glory days. And now for the obligatory Misfits mention. Just picked up Violent World [thanks to my tax refund] and can sum it up in one word: SUCKS. Except for the SOIA track it is god awful [well, the Earth Crisis track is okay, but that's it]. zycki ________________________________________________________________________ ________ By US Code Title 47, Sec.227(a)(2)(B), a computer/modem/printer meets the definition of a telephone fax machine.

"But it is funny you should mention that story. I recently had a similar experience... I was heading down the highway, the one with three inverted nines. And I was driving late at night, twelve o'clockish, don't be late. When I came across the presidents bullet ridden body in the street. I knew this wasn't a love-in. Or a happening, or a feeling in my arm. I wanted to stand in his Spinal Remains, but they where making me sick, so I left. Soon I came across the Horror Hotel, where it is up to me, so I stopped for some brains. Which is all we got at this rotten, fucking place. And low and behold, what is on the table of filth, next to the vapor rub? The genie of death, I touched it, I saw it. So I turned the lights down low, and bolted the doors up so the children in heat (who don't have a whole lot of conscience or resistance) wouldn't come back and bite my face. They're always doing that. I knew I didn't wanna be here, in this British hell, when a woman with about two inch nails, and a micro-waist approached me. I can't remember her name, but she walked out with empty arms. Wait, Nike is her name, I remember it. She worked at the human pit of love, where she wasn't loving me anymore. Well, it was some kinda love, anyway. She had some fucking attitude, so I left and walked the street at night. Do you remember that day? Was it Halloween? No, it was 5:25, August 5, 1962. In... ummmmm...give me a moment. Moments like this never last. Oh yeah, in Spook City, U.S.A. Well, to make a long story short, we all brought back souvenirs, for it was our mommy's dream. Which was all I want in the world." Later ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 17 Apr 1997 15:47:06 -0400 From: Tarry Carapezza Subject: Hey You Limeys!

This is from The Los Angeles Herald Examiner Thurs. April 15 1982 "Violent World" (about an actual infamous magazine that, at one brief low point of bad taste in the late 70's, peddled graphic photos of train wrecks and executions) represents an authentic nightmare "vision" of modern life. But most of their numbers can be interpreted as sick jokes. "Mommy can I go out and kill tonight?" for example, recalls the gruesome family vignettes of Charles Addams. While "Braineaters" has all the lipsmacking grossness of a ghoulish playground chant. What do you think? ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 17 Apr 1997 20:18:36 -0300 From: Charles Pritchett Subject: NEW TRIBUTE About 6-7 months ago I was planning to release A Misfits Tribute album... by their fans... the most important people to them. I kinda got a little busy and the idea simply faded away. Now I am back and have started the plans to do such a tape again. I ask you , if their are any Misfits fans out there who are in a band and wanna be on my tape to please email me at the address below. I am looking for tapes (cassette) or CD's or records... really anything of your band singing a misfits song(s). The quality doesn't have to be studio quality, I don't give a damn if it's you guys singing in a shower, BUT it has to be reasonably clear and I must be able to pick it out. Please help me make this thing work... I do not plan to make any money off of this tape, as i will send it for only shipping + cost of tape.... and for any amercians out there this is pretty good seeing how your almighty dollar is worth so much more than ours. I know that it's a stupid idea to have two working on it the one time, but seeing how I'm in canada and mine would probally be chaper (you know the damn exchange) on americans.... it would also make the shipping cheaper on Canadian Fiends. Finally I just wanna see what the response would be... I don't plan on doing it until another month or so. P.S. I will accept lesser quality tapes (ie: boombox recordings) as long as they are reasonably good PLEASE E-MAIL ME IF YOU ARE INTERESTED thanx for your time.

Hey Bible fiends, In case some of you didn't know. Friday April 18, 1997 is the 20th anniversary of the first Misfits show EVER !!! The setlist from that night (if I'm not mistaken) was: Bullet | Hollywood Babylon | She | Feline Nursery (aka: Spinal Remains) | In The Doorways | Harpies In The Night | West End Avenue I just wanna take this occasion to say thanks to Glenn, Manny and Jerry for taking that first step into the unknown and creating the legend known as the Misfits. I also wanna thank Bobby, Franchee, Doyle, Joey, Mr. Jim, Googy and all the others for perfecting it. About a year ago Mark asked the fiends if they could come with lyrics to the unknown songs from that first "fits show. Well, I wrote some lyrics for Feline Nursery and liked 'em so much I added music to 'em. In honor of this Evil date I'll share them with you. ***BTW: Even though the Misfit's Feline Nursery is just an early version of Spinal Remains. MY Feline Nursery has nothing to do with that song. As a matter of fact I've never heard Spinal Remains so I assume the words won't match if you try singing along to it.*** Anyway, hope y'all like it. ------ "The Feline Nursery" Don't throw away the key ...to the feline nursery Got something I want ya to see ...in the feline nursery Hey baby, run away with me ...to the feline Nursery Why can't we ever be... alone in the Feline Nursery Hey baby, come and play with me ...in the Feline Nursery I got more than a ball of string for you I got more than you could ever imagine too I got more fire inside than any man you've met I wanna crawl on my knees and be your pet Chorus: Don't you throw away the key Ooooo-Ooooo To the Feline Nursery Ooooo-Ooooo Don't you run away from me Ooooo-Ooooo To the Feline Nursery Hiss and spit all you want at me You're staying in the feline nursery You're a bad little kitty You're a bad little cunt You're gonna learn to behave You'll learn not to hunt I'll teach you some manners I'll show you some fun I'll take you to heaven I'll see you in Hell Chorus I ain't no woman's scratching post You ain't gonna get my nuts to roast I ain't got nothing just because of you I'll tell you something; you got no excuse I'll show the Hell life can be In my Feline Nursery I'll show what you've done to me In this Feline Nursery I'll tame you for all eternity In the Feline Nurseryyyyyy... Chorus (to end) ------ Jim *To the ladies: Sorry for the mysoginistic content of the song.

Why does the 1987 re-issue of Evilive have 5 more songs on it than the original 7"'s and German press ( nike a go go, hate breeders, devil's whorehouse, horror hotel, and ghoul's night out )? These songs are from the same show as the others. So, why did the Misfits not just release it as a full length album? I could not find the answer on Misfis Central so I'm takin' it to the street. ----------------------------------------------------- Bill Hanscom hanscom@shore.net http://www.shore.net/~hanscom ----------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 17 Apr 1997 17:30:05 -0700 From: R Hinojos Subject: guitar/request.tab Any Misfits/Samhain/Danzig/Undead/et al songs not on this list have been transcribed and are located at: http://watt.seas.virginia.edu/~msk4m/guitar.html looking for TAB: ---------------- MISFITS: AMERICAN PSYCHO (entire album) UNDEAD: "hollywood boulevard" "i don't wanna feel the pain anymore" "i'm so happy" "invisible man" "lies" "shadows" "slave to fashion" "strange creatures" KRYST: "thunder thruster" "in god we trust" "trial of the soul" "march of the mega-mites" "spellbound" ROY ORBISON: "life fades away" (chords missing) SAMHAIN: "night chill" "lords of the left hand" (rewrite) DANZIG: "anything" "bodies" (guitar riff) "left hand black" (rewrite) "hand of doom: version" (danzig riffs) "power of darkness" "ashes" (piano chords) BLACK ARIA: "conspiracy dirge" "battle for heaven" "retreat and descent" "dirge of defeat" "and the angels weep" "the morrigu" UNEASY LISTENING: "cinerarium waltz" "nightmare" "the witches lament" "into the light" questions/comments/submissions/updates: ryq = ryq@aero.org ------------------------------ Date: 17 Apr 97 19:57:52 EDT From: Paul Holstein <102165.134@CompuServe.COM> Subject: Re: In my own defense...selection NOT low prices. Bible members, Of course I got a great response to my sale, but I did notice a few complaints about the price so I hope I can clear things up a bit. First of all I am an adult with a family, full time job, and a lot of friends. I really don't have alot of free time, and what I do have is extremely valuable to me. If I was to buy a record and resell it to a friend once, as a favor, it would be no problem. But, I have been putting out a trade/sale list EVERY SINGLE MONTH for over three years. This takes A LARGE AMOUNT of my free time. In addition, I spend nearly $1000 per month on new stuff, and I answer over 200 pieces of mail per month. For this, I expect something, not much, but something in return. Also, I pay collectors price for nearly everything. My prices are based on what I paid with a minimum markup on everything to cover overhead. My ONLY profit is in the records I end up keeping for my own collection. I do consider it kind of a "home business" because of the number of orders I get. At a certain point it becomes more that an occassional sale/trade thing. Here are some expenses that the mark-up in prices covers, that you might not have thought of: 1) Cardboard boxes must be purchased, as I use about 50 LP mailers ($1 each), 100 45 mailers (50 cents each), 20 large 45 mailers ($1 each), 100 45 paper sleeves, 100 magazine backing boards, 100 comic size backing boards - every several months. I try to re-use as much as possible. 2) Poly sleeves - I but them for LPs, 45s, CDs, comics, magazines and videos by the 1000's. These cost me over $100 each time I order. I replace the sleeve on every record I buy. I order these several times a year. 4) I use 20-30 rolls of tape a year. 5) I buy regular and business sized envelopes by the box of 1000. I also buy large padded and unpadded envelopes. 6) I buy replacement CD jewel cases for around $1 each and replace them on nearly every used CD I buy. 7) I send out free lists, 100 per month, by U.S. mail. The postage is $32.00 - $55.00, photocopying four cents a page (10 pages * 100 lists * 4 cents = $40.00). THINK ABOUT THIS. I WOULD HAVE TO MAKE A $72.00 TO $95.00 PROFIT ON SALES EACH MONTH JUST TO BREAK EVEN FOR THE FREE LISTS!!!! 8) I subscribe to and advertise in several magazines at various costs - mags like MaximumRocknRoll, Jersey Beat, Flipside, Chord, Under The Volcanoe. Even if I can re-sell the magazines I lose money on them. 9) I buy stuff mailorder only, meaning I pay postage to order, plus I have to send the orders out. Most of the time I only buy stuff in quantities of 1-3. I can't afford to buy more, and my list is supposed to provide a good selection, NOT low prices. 10) I have to drive to the post office and mail out orders three times a week. Its a Hell of a hassle and can take a long time. 11) I have to buy storage boxes for the thousands of records I have to store. Plus the storage space I use could be put to better use. 12) I use a box of staples up a couple times a year. 13) Ink cartridges for my computer's printer cost almost $20.00 each. 14) Compuserve charges me an arm and leg for usage and I only use it for my record stuff. 15) I go through reams and reams of computer paper. 16) Checks cost money and I use hundreds of them for orders and refunds. 17) I get stuck with records that aren't in good condition and frequently throw records away. I also get stuck with records that suck and don't sell and can't be returned. 18) I use the telephone to solidify deals and place orders, and everyone knows what phone charges can run. Well that's only a sample of the costs, and I figure the overhead of my selling and trading is over $150 per month. If I had to list the things that took up my time I could go on forever. Of course there are benefits too, like the main one that keeps me going - I get to build up my own personal collection of every record I ever dreamed of. I don't make ANY cash profit, every dollar in goes back out. What I do get, the profit, is records that I keep for myself. Many, many of them. If anyone wants a FREE list of thousands of MINT ONLY seven inch vinyl records, LPs, ten inch vinyls, CDS, magazines, and miscellaneous punk/hardcore collectables, just E-mail me your address.

ACULA ------------------------------ Subject: "AMERICAN PSYCHO": track by track, by dave naked From: dave naked Date: Fri, 18 Apr 1997 10:09:49 EDT Here it is fiends..."American Psycho" in depth review. 1) "Abominable Dr. Phibes"- Thirty seconds of long, boring drawn out intro. Yawn. 2)"American Psycho"- Here we go. This song sounds a bit odd. The verse is very fast, very EAD where as the chorus has the whoa's we all love from WAU. Its ok, nothing great. Nice work Jerry adding "go's", reminds me of "Queen Wasp". I'll probably like this one the more I hear it. 3)"Speak of the Devil"- A decent song. Nothing stands out about this one. 4)"Walk Among Us"- Hmmmm...This ones good. Doesnt stand out at all. I actually had to whip out the album again just to remember it. Not bad. 5)"The Hunger"- To anyone who heard this one over the summer, and wasnt to impressed (like myself) will be blown away!! A bit faster, and after each chorus Mike does the "we become" intro. Wow. Even during the last chorus, you hear Jerry screaming "go go go go" in the backround. Wow. One of my favorites. 6)"From Hell they Came"- Another thing about this album. The songs are good and all but ones of the non-descriptive ones sound the same. This one sounds just like "Speak of the Devil" not to say its bad. It just isnt special. 7)"Dig Up Her Bones"- This one starts off a bit slow, and tedious but it kicks into a great chorus. 8)"Blacklight"- This one dissapointed me. I heard it over the summer, and was quite taken by it. What the hell. Who gave them the bright ida to SLOW IT DOWN!!!! Man, now its decent I guess. I like the faster one better, but this isnt *that* bad. Actually, the slowness gives a bit more emphasis on Michales voice which is a plus. 9)"Resurrection"- WOW. This one is great. Rocabilly (spelling?), a la "Spook City USA" and "American Nightmare", but a bit heavier. Cool sing along chorus. But wait...theres something disturbing...what the hell are those lyrics. About a girl???!!! Ahhhh. "You talk about me/laugh about me/lie about me". One of my faves, tho. 10)"This Island Earth"- Good song, I like it. Another one of those non-discript, it sounds just like the other songs seperating the really good ones. 11)"Crimson Ghost"- Ewwwwwwwwwww. Make it stop. This song is horrible. The first, acutally BAD song on this album so far. Sounds like theyre trying to be EAD, it just doesnt work for them (read: METAL) 12)"Day of the Dead"- I love this one. The only problem is the ripping on old Misfits stuff. Clapping?? The end has a break, a la "Last Caress", where it gets all slow. Maybe thats why I love it. ?. 13)"The Haunting"- Wow. Just as good as it was over the summer. Even more melodic. 14)"Mars Attacks"- This one REEKS of KRYST. Noooooooooooooo. My other least favorite. (btw: what the hell were they thinking making this one the first single or recording of the Newfits. That would have turned off ALOT of people) 15)"Hate the Living, Love the Dead"- Read: 10, 7, 6, 4, 2. Yawn. 16)"Shining"- WOW!!!!! This ones about "Polterguist" as opposed to "The Shining" (oddly enough). GREAT song, great chorus!! "Carol Ann the beast is coming/ Carol Ann, Carol Ann/ She just cant see/ Carol Ann the beast it needs you to come/ here it comes reaching out from somewhere inside your TV". 17)"Dont Open Til' Doomsday"- Decent. Better than the other decent ones, tho. 18)"Hellnight"- Ok. Heard this ones gonna be a secret track or something. Youd think theyd make it something better than a regular old song. Notes: I like this one alot. A few points. -Anyone notice, Michale really has strayind from the Glenn esque song. He has his own thing going now. -Overproduced. Ahhhh. The vocals are wayyyyy to smooth. -Not enough horror movie songs. I only found one ("Shining"). The rest are really more horror type subjects. -To many decent sounding alike songs. Generic. -Recycling. Claps, whoas, slow breakdowns. Maybe thats why I like it. The bottom line: GREAT album. Buy it on the 13th. I am. see ya, dave Im not proofreading it, to get it in todays bible. Excuse all mistakes. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 18 Apr 1997 01:11:55 -0500 From: tes777@bridge.net (Tammy S.) Subject: Like the Rangers actually thought they could win, yeah right... Hello fiends... first thing is, please do not send me chain e-mail. i HATE Chain Mail of any kind and it really pisses me off. Also as far as the Misfits and Tour dates for the US, i'll say it one more time. I do not know what the tour dates are and i'm sure if Mark knows he will post them. The price for the promo sampler for the Misfits Box set was $15. That was what i paid, though i have seen it range from $15 - 25. though i doubt that Paul was trying to over charge anyone. Record stores in Las Vegas. J-Mars Record : 2620 S.Maryland Pkwy #17, Las Vegas, NV 89109 (702)-796-6366; Fax: (702)796-7954. i will list more once i get some reseach done. Misfits 101... Record Conventions and some other stuff... Ok here we go for the weekend in RECORD CONVENTIONS, NOT MISFITS TOUR DATES. April 19, Daytona Beach, FL; North Miami, FL (19 - 20); Indianapolis, IN; Lexington, KY; NYC, NY; Piqua,OH (19 - 20); Allentown, PA; Chambersburg, PA; Greenville, SC; April 20, Emeryville, CA; Jacksonville, FL; Arbutus, MD; Royal Oak; MI; Lansing, MI; Las Vages, NV; Hackensack, NJ; Dayton, OH; Allentown, PA(this is actually in the same place as the one on the 19 but a different con) North Providence, RI; Nashville, TN; Appleton, WI; any question about a Record Convention in your city just drop me a line and i give you the info on it. as far as buying at the Cons, best bet is make a copy of Misfits 101 off Misfits Central. especially when dealing with the 7"s. the LPs were not bootleggd with the exception being Beware. the other flip of the coin is if you really want something badly enough, i would suggest to check out Eerie Von's list. He is very reliable and i'm saying that from personal dealing with him. Also do ask him about the Rosemary's Babies 7" if you are interested in getting one, i think he still has some left. I know it is tough to collect, and i see some of you after the rare rare stuff. It takes a lot of work and searching. The Victims 7", that is a hard sucker to find. it took me years to find the one and now i have been looking again for the past 4 years. The last 7"s i'm still looking for are the second press black vinyl Bullet and the red vinyl Bullet. Actually it took more work to get my gatefold Bullet then it took to get a Cough/Cool. Also, do not write off trading. I know lately there has been some incedents that would make the best of us never want to trade again, but that is still not a reason to not utilize this way of collecting. I still trade, 12 years of it to boot. the only thing is you got to be on the ball when dealing with someone. and i know i have posted and Paul has posted how to deal in trading. In simple take what we say and use it, cause it does work a majority of the time. We have all been burned one time or another but that has not made us give up yet. Plus again with the rare shit, you have a lot of fiends who own most of this or had it at one time or another who can tell you what to look for. We all have our special interests too. EVB is a great person to ask about the silkscreened posters and flyers. i tend to specialize in the hybrid color vinyls. There are evne those lucky guys who have the ultra rare pieces too. And it will always be back to the same belief, if you want it badly enough you can get it. I know a lot of people who tell me otherwise or have over the years. I went after my Horror Buisness 7" with a vengance. I was told i would never find one under $150 - 160. I got mine for half in mint condition. I will still be looking for that ultra rare black Horror Buisness, and the double A - side, only cause it is my favorite song. well keep looking fiends, and if you have the time on the weekends go to the Conventions, you never know what you will find. I learned that one a long time ago. Shit, i learned that with comic Cons too, ie. i sport the one issue of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles with the story dedicated to the Misfits. well again you guys who have not sent in your get to know you answers have till a week from this Sunday at 10pm. tes777@bridge.net if you don't already know it by now. Hope everyone has a great weekend as i count down to a week of no bread, corn, peas, beans, any leavening agents, and a slew of other items. its great if you live on meat and potatos.

Static Age will be out in '97. There was no original cover planned for it ever. Jerry had Basil Gogos paint a possible album cover back in '95 which featured Jerry in front a blue background getting struck by lightning (sort of like Metallica's "Ride The Lightning" but with Jerry instead of a chair) - I had a picture up on the web page for a while. This will NOT be the cover. It won't be remixed, but it will include the original (meaning not overdubbed) versions of "She" and "Spinal Remains." As mentioned in the discography on the web page in at least two different places, "Spinal Remains" in its original form ("Feline Nursery") was never recorded. > From: Neil McAllister > Subject: Jerry's Swedish Interview > > Anyone care to tell me WHY there isn't supposed to be any swearing on new > Misfits songs?

Does it really matter if the band is stait edge (aka straight edge) or not? It wouldn't really change the sound of a band's music. The only thing that would be different about a "straight edge" band that I can think of is their lyrics, and that's not the case in this situation because they're playing a cover song. If you said something like "they destroyed the song because they suck, and they sound like shit" then I could see your point.

I know there are many true fiends out here in So. Cal. but I too would like to come into contact with more of them. You may remember me from Squirt #2. I submitted my photo to make "fiends" but it seems all you fiends out there are too shy to drop me a line! Don't be. I'm sick of the typical Guttermouth/NoFX scene out here and am hungry for devilocked fiends to share evil with. I am 24 yrs. old and most punk guys or girls are immature morons. Fiends always seem to have more brains and interesting lives, no matter how old they are. I have a true interest in horror movies that has been with me my whole life, my favorites being Suspiria, Evil Dead 2, and Return of the Living Dead. I worship Elvira and Vampira, and yes my nails really ARE 2" long. I have 138 pairs of shoes and boots >-:--[ and Jerry wants me to run the West Coast branch of the Fiend Club to help out Mark Kennedy when they get back from Europe. I am flying out to NYC in June to interview Jerry and Doyle for my website www.fetish-fantasy.com at their Irving Plaza shows on June 19th and 20th where Jerry said they will be dressed in Star Trek uniforms on one of those nights (?!). I thought Jerry was charming and so polite and I look forward to posing with them for some photos! My favorite Misfit tunes are Children In Heat, Bloodfeast, London Dungeon, Vampira(of course), and Skulls. To that reject who hates the first 2 songs listed above, Joe, I'm not going to attack you for your opinion, but being called a lame ass punk rocker is pretty pathetic. I may be lame, but I'm probably the sexiest vamp you could ever hope to meet and you have 2 strikes against you already, Joe. My friend got a copy of American Psycho from Rob Zombie and taped it for me and I love it! A little different that what I expected, but excellent nonetheless. It made me want to grab a beer and sing along with my corpse at my side. Here's a movie for them to do a song about: "The Brainiac". How about a tribute to Mexican wrestler movies? "Santo Contra Las Mujeres Vampiro". Just a thought.Anyway, anyone who wants to e-mail me (So. Calif. or not) at GhoulFiend@aol.com. And please-if you are on AOL, don't instant message me without a prior e-mail. Question: anyone have the inner sleeve to the Battalion Of Saints "Second Coming" album?

Check out your local record store, or the Misfits Central homepage where you subscribed to this "bible". they also have an album of all new material comming out on May 13, the first new material offically released in several years. For more details as to why, check the homepage. On to other things. Jake Starr, I wanted to thank you publically for the "4 Hits From Mars" 7". Ant to the four bands included therein, fantastic job. It was obvious from listening to the record that you guys were true fans, not afraid to experiment with the music and make the songs in the style you liked. Too many bands that cover a song try to do the "Definitive" cover version, proving that they are most like the original. I believe that if you can't bring a fresh prospective to the music, why record it? Azwadny, or "GWAR" Noss: How much will the cd version of "It Came .From Hell" be? Just wondering incase you posted it, and I missed it. I might be interested in that, or if not the cd, certainly the tape.

Hey Bible Fiends, There's been a lot of talk about what was the first punk band on a major label. How about THE STOOGES. Their first album came out in 1969 and it was on Elektra. However; to me a much more interesting question would be what was the first punk band ever ? I think it's THE SEEDS, they started in 1965. Anyone know for sure ? LLLLLLLLATER JIM PS: For all those of you who feel the need to argue about what's Punk and what's not I suggest you read the following sage saying which was mentioned to me in 1985: "No two punks are alike, and THAT is what Punk is all about." ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 18 Apr 1997 23:01:51 -0700 (PDT) From: Daniel Herrmann Subject: The Damned For those of you who think this isn't Misfits related, you are horribly mistake. Read on. Of course most of you know that the Misfits toured in the UK with the Damned, and that Danzig wrote "Archangel" for Dave Vanian (lead singer of the Damned). Anyways, I read that they were the first punk group to get a record out. Now, I seriously doubt this, cause they weren't around till '76. This same source said that they were the first punk band to go to America and come back without any visible expenditure. If anyone would like a brief history of the Damned (much like the liner notes in the Misfits Box Set), let me know. I'll type them up and send 'em your way. Anyways, other connections I see between the bands are that of song titles, music wise, and vocals. Some songs by the Damned are entitled "Plan 9 Channel 7", "Psychomania", and "Grimly Fiendish". Hmmmm... think about those. Than there's the background similarities. In the song "Neat, Neat, Neat", the guitar and bass sound very Bobby-esque and Jerry-like (respectively of course). In almost all Damned songs, the drums are very similiar. Then theres the vocals. Dave Vanian sounds very much like Jim Morrison at times (as does Danzig), Joey Ramone, and Glenn when he was with the 'Fits. In the song "Ignite", it has the "woah oh ohhs" that the Misfits used so well. The biggest differences between bands are that of song length. The average Damned song last over 3 and 1/2 minutes. I suggest you check out the Damned if you haven't already. BTW - I heard the Damned recently re-united. Anyone know anything about that? Any info would be very much appreciated. -Tim (not Dan) "You'd be well advised not to plan my funeral till the body dies." ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 19 Apr 1997 11:31:41 -0400 From: EARTHCRISIS Subject: homo otis228 graced us all by saying, that some stupid "statit edge" band totally butchered earth a.d., first what does straight edge have anything to do with how a band plays a song? secondly, just because they play a kind of musi you don't like, you don't have to say they ruined it, you know what? i like it. philip ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 19 Apr 1997 12:00:12 -0400 From: Derek Smith Subject: Henry Rollins Henry is on Saturday Night Live! this week, be sure to watch it (although this post probably won't get out until after it, but... :) On Horror Hotel it kinda' sounds like: Check into Horror Hotel It's kinda' creepy and it kinda' smells Derek http://village.globaldrum.com/Wasteland/ ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 19 Apr 1997 14:41:20 -0700 From: R Hinojos Subject: AMERICAN PSYCHO i was at Soundsations today.

I ended up getting it from Paul Holstein, the record store never got it. This bootleg came out in 1996 and I listened to it and stared at it all day yesterday. Tracks 1. Lords of the Left hand: This is cool, it's not the final Descent John Christed metal yucky version. It's a choppy faster NCF-esque Demo. 2. Novembers Fire: Some lyrics are different, Some lines are mixed around, and I think there was only 2 verses. 3. Trouble: Glenn goes wild on an Organ throughout this song. I like it better than the Danzig version. 4-10. Live 2-5-85 11-15. The Original Unholy Passion E.P. I was a little dissapointed. It sounds like they got this off a cassette. If you turn it up too loud, the hiss is annoying. Tis sad, they could have got it off the vinyl. 16. Radio Interview: This interview was about a week before their first show at the Rock Hotel. I think it was just Glenn and Steve. They talk about what Samhain means, Why the Misfits broke up, they gave away 20 x30 hand silkscreened Skeleton girl posters. much more 17. Early Mix World Premier of the first Samhain song to be heard by the world "get your tape recorders out". BLACK DREAM. RYQ was right, they must have sped up the final mix, this version is a lot slower. 18 The rest of the interview. part of it is now on my answering machine.

In the new movie Chasing Amy there is a scene where two of the characters are in a record store and in the background on the top 10 section there is about 5 or 6 copies of Collection 2. It was at the number 6 spot on the chart. Then a few seconds later you can see another copy of collection 2 in the background, along with some other delightful cds like No Doubt :) The movie is a "romantic comedy", but its hella funny cuz its written by Kevin Smith, who also did Clerks and Mallrats.

It's a rare thing when I come out of lurking to post...but this one's definitely worth posting. Who cares about the American Psycho promo...get off your asses and get "Learn It" from Times Square. I decided (finally) to check out the CRUX Internet Radio page, and decided to check out the RealAudio clips off of "Learn It". Two words describe my impression...BLOWN AWAY. Jill has a great voice, Dave and Bobby are tight, and, dammit the tunes are catchy...everything you ask for in a 2 minute punk song. If you haven't heard it yet, check out http://crux.marion.org/ and look under New Music. You'll need RealAudio to hear the clips. Bobby, I'll be getting you some $ in the mail...this is one CD I've gotta own. It seems that every skepticism I've had about bands involving Bobby have been proven wrong...if only the Newfits could do the same.... ******************************************* Tim Thompson, Department of Urban Planning Ball State University ******************************************* http://bsuvc.bsu.edu/~02tjthompson/ ******************************************* Evil is As Evil Does... ******************************************* ------------------------------ From: Cleusa Carpinelli Subject: The Misfits' healing properties.

Oh,just a quick note on the Misfits' healing properties:I had a severe = case of pneumonia a few weeks ago,and I had my lungs,sinuses and eyes = all filled with mucous,and the feeling was terrible.So,searching for a = little relief,i turned Earth AD on,in excessively high = volume,which,after only a few minutes,made me feel dizzy and = weird.Running to the bathroom,I puked an enormous amount of phlegm into = the sink,and immediately started to feel better.The following day I was = in remission,thanks to Earth AD. One last thing,on bible #322,Nick Brown complains about being unlucky = for he lives in Arizona and thus can't go to enough concerts.Well = man,what would you call living in Brazil then?Damnation?!The only time = Danzig's ever been here,their concert lasted 45 minutes,'cause Glenn had = to kick some attending idiot's ass,got pissed as a result,and left.They = never came back.Not to mention,of course,the fact that no one around = here ever heard about Samhain or Misfits,let alone watched them = live.And,of course,Brazil is probably not included in the new Misfits = tour.Yes,my friend,it's hard to be a brazilian fiend.Be glad you live in = Arizona.We have better chicks over here,though,ha ha.

The Ketucky lottery's pick 3 numbers were...138! WOW! Guess the lottery gods are 'Fits fans! Oh yeah.. whoever it was that was talking about how every fiend always checks the 'Fits section in record stores, dreams about being Michale, etc... You couldn't be closer to the truth. Everybody does this, and I guess it's just part of being a fiend. Maybe it comes naturaly? Who knows, but everybody is guilty of these charges, and who cares? It's fun. I forgot to do something! A long time ago, a guy in i think it was Boston sent me a tape with "Shocking Return" Kryst the Conqueror, and some old live Danzig and Misfits stuff. Thanx Andrew! Sorry the thank you took so long! It just kinda slipped my mind! And thanx to Mark! You rock! You defenatly don't get the thanx you deserve! May 13! Can't wait! Later, Mike PS..To SHEENA, yeah, I noticed that the spine on BEWARE was upside down! That's just a weird cd all together! PPS-quit buggin "punkture"! To each his own. If he likes Rancid AND the Misfits, let him do it. I gave him a hard time about it, but I was just giving the guy a hard time. James Hetfield likes Waylon Jennings.

I know that you must think that Green hell and Last Carress are Metallica songs, but they are not!!! I have no fucking clue what GNR song is a Fits cover. The Misfits have well over 100 original songs and as far as I know they have never done covers.

I only found one ("Shining"). The rest >are really more horror type subjects. Bullshit. There are plenty of horror movies in there (beyond your pitiable Shining reference), you just don't know them: Dr. Phibes Rises Again - 1972 horror movie Speak of the Devil - 1991 horror movie The Hunger - 1983 horror movie This Island Earth - 1954 horror movie The Crimson Ghost - 1946 sci-fi thriller movie Day of the Dead - 1985 horror movie The Haunting - 1963 horror movie Mars Attacks - "Mars Attacks the World" a 1938 horror movie So there, enough horror movie influences for you? Of course the last one is really stretching it, considering we ALL know it was written for 1996's Mars Attacks, but it was written about the 1962 card series not the movie. American Psycho is a horror novel published in 1991. I like the fact that the Misfits aren't letting movies be their only source of inspiration - maybe they'll get some fiends to actually read something other than the MB.

If I'm not mistaken today is Jerry's 38th Birthday. Happy Birthday Jerry! This question is for Mark, or anyone else with info. Now I know the full Kryst the Conqueror (13 songs) album was never officially released, but I heard that Jerry and Doyle gave the full album to Metallica (who by the way rocked the u.s.air arena both night's. yeah I like metal). Now my question is how can one acquire the full KTC album? I don't imagine that they are too worried about releasing it any time soon, especially with American Psycho soon to be released. Now I know I'm probably the only one on the bible that likes KTC, so don't start flaming me because I don't care. What I'm trying to ask is do any fiends have a copy of the entire album, they would part with or copy. One more question: In the feb. issue of Bass played mag. Jerry mentions that they are going to start manufacturing and selling their "Devastator", and "Annihilator" style of guitars. Is there any word on when they might hit the streets, who's going to make them, or what the retail price will be? Any info is greatly appreciated. Remember support "From Hell They Came..." Art, and Kieth have put alot of work into this thing. And don't forget to check out my band ALCOHOLOCAUST on that tape/cd. All you other bands, get your tapes in!!! Oh yeah and don't forget to go see "Chasing Amy" at your local theatre's, besides the Misfits collection II shows up 2 times in the record store (as if Jay and Silent Bob aren't reason enough). -Later Drew ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Apr 1997 00:15:16 -0500 From: tes777@bridge.net (Tammy S.) Subject: Misfits 101 and ignorance of Pricing... Hello fiends... well this has to be a quicky today. being i have to get two 12 pound turkeys in the oven by 8am. first i think i pointed this out on friday but someone made a comment about it. As far as the prices that Eerie had with his records, they are not actually that high. Look back to what some of the same items went for on Kevin's auction at the beginning of the year, or some of the prices from Devilman's or Ben's sales. this is nothing new. I never said Misfits rarities were cheap. I may have gotten way with murder on most of my collection, luck good dealing etc. But realistically the vinyl is worth a lot. Think of it this way, Cough/Cool was just priced by Goldmine a couple of months ago. I posted the price before. They had the most recent sale at $425. Now that is a pressing of 500 copies. Eerie's yellow Earth AD was at $250, there are only 200 of those pressed. see what i'm getting at. Plus i hate to say it but the people who sold them from $50 - 75 were stupid, they could have charged way more money and still have gotten it. Beware was sold at $325, Eerie has the Samhain Initium - marbled vinyl at the same price i believe. yet it was 50 - 100 or less(i've heard all sorts of numbers on that) Beware was pressed 10,000 - 15,000. so there is no need to jump on Eerie with his prices. as for the Legacy on Pink, there are 16, if i remember correctly Bobby has his black Horror Business at the same price and there are 25 of those. again with the ultra rare the skies the limit. I remember that Kris McLauchlan was trying to sell his Horror Business - alternate sleeve with a double A-side piece of vinyl for $900. This is just reality with Misfits and Samhain Vinyl or actually all PLAN9 vinyl. I know enough people, including myself to have the Victims 7". No luck at my con, i hope the rest of you that went this past weekend got some good stuff. as for the question keep the answers coming in, you got till Sunday at 10pm. well this is were i have to cut out, to all those who are celebrating Passover Monday and Tuseday, have a great Holiday and i'll be back to normal on Wed, i hope.

I hate to Disagree with Mark and the other guy, but I don't really see This Island Earth as much of a horror movie. I mean, you got the bug people and the aliens, but to me it's a pretty pure cold war era Sci-Fi. The plot is purely sci-fi even though the bug stuff is slightly horrific. That movie sucks anyway. Though it's good during the Mystery Science Theater 3000 movie. heh. (but i perfer the Pod People better) Anyway to the guy at Flex, is that the same glossy Flex mag that had a danzig article a while back?

Sorry pal, but in your trying to correct someone else, you made a mistake. Metallica's been around since late '81. And the song GnR covered was Atitude. They fucked it up. One part I don't like was how they changed "your gonna feel the floor", to "your gonna feel the mother fuckin' guitar". Speaking of Metallica, there is more than the two Misfits covers we've ALL heard: Death Comes Ripping - James performed this once with i4Ni (New York, NY 12/21/91 - bootleg cassette) London Dungeon - performed a short version here and there over the years in concert, a full version was performed with Danzig at Chicago, IL 7/3/94 ("Pile of Shit" bootleg CD) - it's also played live on the Live bootleg - LA2 august 23, 1995 If anybody wants a cool story on what might have happened if Cliff Burton was not killed in that bus accident from '86. It kicks ass. If your one of those fucks who think they "soldout", or "sucked" after Cliff died, this story is perfect for your ignorant mind. Email me and let me know.

After high-tailing it north, first pleasant surprise of the day was bumping into CHUD walking down the street...he was being all inconspicuous in his shades, tour jacket and CG bobble-hat!!! Second surprise was on the door. I was all set for arguing with secuity...MISFITS 102, how to get into a gig for free, it's quite simple when there's a guy stood outside giving away FREE tickets...what's that all about?? Once inside I deposited my gear, grabbed a beer and went to shoot-the-shit with Corey, Mr. Merchandise. Go talk to this guy at the shows, he's real friendly, works damn hard and gets very little credit!! He still wouldn't sell me his Lon Chaney crew shirt....fucker! It was only 4pm now and the first of the 6 "punk bands" were already being hassled by cider-fuelled teenagers with mohawks. I thought punk meant PUNK....today it covers a lot of bases. Many a nameless wonder floated by until Bradfords own "LOWLIFE" hit the boards. These guys were PUNK and were balls out for a good time, regardless. The singer shuned the stage taking to the floor and giving as much abuse as he got. TOP MARKS...I picked up their 6 track demo for a quid...I'll post their address next time, well worth a look. After more metal bands and a bit of a break for a punk/metal "disco" they played an old Anthrax song which got the crowd rather excited....it was only when I got back from the bar I realised it was Sardonica...not my cup of tea but the crowd dug 'em and everyone was starting to move now...I suppose the cider was wearing off. Next up were some skinhead screamers...IronMonkey I think they were, I didn't quite get the point. SubZero rocked, these guys certainly desrve all the support they're getting at the moment. A great set, they worked the crowd, the crowd worked them...I'd like to hear more...and see them again. For the fits I took position in a quiet spot front left....it wasn't quiet for long...as soon as the guys stepped out the place went apeshit and I nearly went arse-over-tit. Halloween gave way to Horror biz to god knows what and the band were five songs in before I stabilized myself to see what was going on. This year they'd brought a hell of a lot more equipment with them and the stage looked crowded...thus the show was a little less dynamic but not less energetic. The band were tighter too...rehearsal is obviously payng off. Chud thundered, Jerry pounded and Doyle pretty much tore a guitar to shreds every two songs. Michale has relaxed a bit too....I think he's realised he has nothing to prove to anyone any more and gets on with HIS thing. Since they've been here Michale must have been force fed some of our dodgy British beef cause he's lost the plot. Last time he was really concentrating on his singing but this year he doesn't give a fuck. He kinda runs around shaking like he's having some kind of fit.....giving the guys in the front row a chance to sing the wrong words. Comedy moments....the kid on stage singing Astrozombies who was so drunk he didn't recognise the song until the second chorus and the bemused look on Doyles face when he returned for the encores to the staple British show of appreciation "You fat bastard". All in all a top effort.......I'm glad they've rescheduled the end of tour party for Leeds Uni on May 20th and not London....means I get double the fun!!! Tickets for that should be on sale soon from the University Box Office, Jumbo and Crash in Leeds and other usual outlets. I'll try and post phone numbers for these in the next couple of days. Surprise number three was on leaving...I was proffered with FREE posters...not 1 pound. My take on the situation is that HTB had them printed for promo purposes and got pissed at the band selling them for 2 quid so they were flogging them for 1. Tonight the bands price was 1 quid so I guess the promoter had to go one better. See y'all in Leeds next month This is Uncle Jack signing off............nanu nanu. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Apr 1997 08:05:02 -0400 From: Scott Perry Subject: DRI Hey fiends, I saw some people talking about a band called DRI. Well I don't know if any one is interested but I saw a DRI vinyl called 4 of a kind here and if anyone wants it I can get it for them.

Yeah, I read that too. What crap! Like anybody had seven figures o' money to give him. I can't find it in me to accuse him of lying, though. I think it's just his sarcastic sense of humor. I would think that after shooting off his mouth for the last decade or so, he would realize what a loser he sounds like. I said in a post before, I don't know why the public affairs people at Hollywood Records don't save him from himself.

Fiends, Every one here needs to get a hold of the new CD by adam west. To start off in my opinion it is a cross between the stooges, misfits, and ramones. This one thing I have always loved about Adam west was a unique combination of sound that I really cant lump into a category. IF ya like classic punk you will love this album. Everyone I have plaed this disc for loves it. As matter of fact I brought it into my work the day I got and we all rocked out while cleaned the resturant. My personal fav's from the album are: 6 & 6 is, electrified, speed bumps, wrong way ronnie, unclean, and pocket The last song I listed pocket is one of those strange songs that you hear at first and I really thought it was a good song but was'nt to excited about it, then I found myself singing the chorus all day long. There are so many sing along parts to this disc that will have humming them all day. I am glad that finally this band has got a cd out! I was tired of listening to the shitty recording of 7"'s . Now I am anxious ly waiting for jake to get out the 5 the hard way cd with all the old 7"s. So do your selves a favor fiends and pick up this disc from Jake. thanx D-rod ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Apr 1997 11:57:54 -0500 (CDT) From: nick winkleback Subject: GnR and cover stuff Heya, The 'Fits song that Guns covered is on The Spagetti Incedent? and it is Attitude. I am not a fan of Guns and Roses (Nor Twisted Sister for that matter) but I have heard this song and it's decent. Also, is my memory shot or is not "Ratt Fink" a cover? Maybe I've just been gluing together too many models in unventilated areas lately:) I, personally, have never seen the Misfits as metal, so the "80's metal" descriptions of the new album have me both worried and interested. I really cannot wait until it comes out. On a side note, the Misfits is about the only band I listen to that really comes under the banner of punk, other than an interest in the Ramones and the Sex Pistols. Yup, metalhead all the way, I know. I hope I didn't just make any enemies. Oh well...like you care. Heh.

Apparently no one knows, cares, or has bothered to post what Misfits song GNR covered, and there was some question as to what it was in the last bible. But anyway, since I'm a glam-rock tool, I'll tell you. GNR does a cover of Attitude on their album "The Spaghetti Incident?" which is a compilation of punk band covers. I think the cover is pretty cool, but then again I think No Doubt and Poison kick ass, so the majority of you would probably disagree with me. And Duff sings it, because I would imagine the record execs gave a thumbs down on Axl's school-girlish screeching of such an awesome song.

They are in Fords NJ and are on the WWW at vvinyl.com. Go to Yahoo and you should be able to find something....

Gregg >To that guy who wants to know who Patty Hearst is, she is a lady who in the >seventies got captured by some gang and was forced to rob banks with them >and her dad was a millionare or something, at least thats what i have heard. Patty Hearst was the daughter of William Randolph Hearst who was a multi-millionaire owner of a publishing empire. She was abducted by the Symbionese Liberation Army (the SLA for those of you who listened to Judy is a Punk by the Ramones) and "forced" to rob banks and stuff. She did go to prison and Jimmy Carter (thats the Democrats for ya) commuted her sentence in 1979. If you've seen Serial Mom by John Waters, she is in that as a Juror.. Jeremy said "However; to me a much more interesting question would be what was the >first punk band ever ? I think it's THE SEEDS, they started in 1965. Anyone know for sure ? >"No two punks are alike, and THAT is what Punk is all about." This is getting nuts, but I can make good arguments that the first caveman to knock two rocks together was in the first punk band ..... As for punks not being alike, I saw a NYHC show on Saturday, and there was more people dressing and acting alike than when I was in the army.....

I would have to say the remixes- I could live without. The blackaciddevil take is the best. You're not missing out here...unless you like techno house music. Even though J.G.Thirwell "Foetus" is a fave of mine as well, the combo just didn't seem right to me and that's pretty much that. At $6.49 I'm glad I did not pay more, but I don't feel ripped. RIPSNORTER ------------ HOMEPAGE / "PULSE" CD REVIEW I finally got my ass in gear and updated the RIPSNORTER HOMEPAGE: http://www2.bitstream.net/~j4ness/ripsnorter.html Check it out with Netscape 3.0+ it has Javascript rollovers, etc...LiveAudio Plug In helps too... Also I need to plug our RIPSNORTER CD "PULSE" Here is the latest REVIEW: RIPSNORTER "PULSE": Hardnosed and gritty-sounding, Ripsnorter tread their way through the looming, enveloping, throbbing darkness that is Pulse. Sounds much like the MiSFiTS. -SPANK Magazine I would say that 85% of our reviews say we sound like the MiSFiTS. We do and we don't. Find out for yourselves go to the Music section and download some samples (about 216k each song for 20 second samples). Also includes MiSFiTS songs we cover....

By the way, if you haven't seen Chasing Amy, i suggest you do so now, it is a GREAT movie. And why the hell haven't the Misfits been in any magazines lately????? i mean you'd think people would be a just a BIT excited when the greatest punk band in the world that influenced several bands ranging from punk/hardcore bands (Sick of it All) to metal bands (MetallicA) are back together and are releasing an album of new material. and i have an idea, the Misfits should release an album of old songs sung by the new lead singer dude (i always forget his name). They should call it Earth BC or something like that. Here's my idea for a Static Age album cover: Gavin Rossdale is chained to a chair and Jerry and Doyle are shooting lightning at him, hehehe...

I believe they were a second generation punk band from what I heard. Also, Penelope Houston (founding member of Avengers) is working with Billie Joe of Green Day and they are recording "Angel and the Jerk" for a undisclosed soundtrack later this year. Second: I believe WHO IS THE FIRST PUNK BAND? is a hard question to answer. Because it all depends on who you think is punk. I have read in some books that said Elvis Presely was the first punk because he challenged the rules. I think that is bullshit but that's what they think. Some think it is Richard Hell or Mc5. I do know that "punk" in the 60's was called "garage" rock. The word "punk rock" was first used to describe the music scene in Paris around 1973. But the scene was not really punk as we know but more psychedelic rock 'n roll. I believe the Sonics were the first punk band. I think they started around 1966-67. I don't know anything about the Seeds but I believe they are on a collection of 60's punk, the name of the album I forget though.

Patricia Hearst was the granddaughter of William Randolph Hearst,a = multi-millionaire who owned a chain of newspapers.Patty disappeared from = everyone's sight ,one day,and soon after that,her parents received a = message ,where it said that she had been kidnapped.Well,that was the = begining of one of the largest manhunts in american history,since the = Hearsts utilized their fortune to print signs,offer rewards,mobilize the = police force,etc. Well,Patty,along with the "gang" who "kidnapped" her,continued to live a = life on the road with her friends for a while.Yes,friends.She was never = kidnapped,she left with them because she wanted to.The "help me,I was = kidnapped!" letter was left behind by Patty,probably because if people = thought she was a poor victim of the circumstances,it would be easier = for her "gang" to keep on robbing stuff.I heard that among other = things,they robbed banks and convenience stores.And that,dear = fiends,kinda explains...

I guess we can all agree that it did not pay homage to the Misfits in the least. My question pertains to the alternate bands who played some of the songs on the album.Prong played Lundon Dungeon on the version I heard, and some people were speaking of Jughead's Revenge or someone else playing it. Also I have seen multipe covers of the album. Unimportant, yes, but when has that ever stopped me before. I have decided that you must experience a 138 sighting for anyone elses to become relevant whatsoever. I don't see why pretty boy Glenn Danzig needs a nose job. I myself have broken mine twice, and I think that it adds a certain, defining charachteristic to my otherwise ugly face. Danzig does have a big nose to begin with though, so maybe that had something to do with the decision. Does anyone know Tesco Vee's relationship to the Meatmen? Who was he in the band, if he was at all. Maybe I'm wrong, but is the Chrimson Ghost really a sci-fi thriller? It was about the least thrilling movie I have ever seen. Maybe the cyclotrode could be conidered scientific, too. I listened to November Coming Fire last week, thanks to Hoffman. Had it not been for him I would have probably never HERD it.

Bullshit Mark! The album will never come out because Glenn said so. Jerry & Glenn must agree on old material being released. Caroline would release anything that has the name "MISFITS" on it, regardless of what they say. Why? because there are about 5000 people in the united states alone that would buy anything with the word "Misfits" on it. 5000(at least) people times oh say $10 for Caroline (assuming a $15.95 selling price) = $50,000 in their pocket less of course the $3,000 they 'invested' in plastic and packaging. No brainer. Joel Said: >Subject: The greatest band on Earth!!! > >This would be the greatest band on Earth (if they were all living): >Glenn Danzig: Vocals > >Johnny Thunders: Guitar >Richard Lloyd: Guitar >Jerry Only: Bass >Jerry Nolan: Drums >John Zorn: Sax I'd have to somewhat agree with this assessment. Although I'd ditch Jerry in favor of a 'real' bass player, rather than just a noise maker. Someone like Fred Smith of Television or Billy Rath of the Heartbreakers. Joel your in NJ you should check out The Health and Happiness show, featuring Richard Lloyd & Jimmy Mastro (Bongos). They play in Sparta at Kraughs all the time. Last time I saw the I had the opportunity to talk to Lloyd he's BURNT, no fucking cellular activity in his brain at all, but fuck if he can't still play! From: nick winkleback >The 'Fits song that Guns covered is on The Spagetti Incedent? and >it is Attitude. I am not a fan of Guns and Roses (Nor Twisted Sister for >that matter) but I have heard this song and it's decent. Personally I get a kick out of all the anal types that rank on GnR's version of this. It's A FUCKING COVER people, So they changed around a few lyrics big fucking deal. Do we even know what the true lyrics are? NO, Glenn refuses to comment on it, all we have to go by is what Jerry says. Glenn was very secretive and self conscious about his "work" back then. Give GnR a break they did a decent job. >Also, is my memory shot or is not "Ratt Fink" a cover? Oh yes this is the grand slam! As we all know Ratt Fink is a cover of Alan Sherman's Ratt Fink which is of course a cover of Ragg Mopp. What's really funny is That the Misfits never gave credit to Sherman on anything since the single, remember "all songs by GLenn Danzig?" this is even true of the Box Set. And further more on the Undead's "Dawn of.." LP the song's author is listed as Steele (c) Herpes Music. Bobby says it's a typo. oh fuck the sig... CG ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Apr 1997 16:54:30 -0400 (EDT) From: Brett Fama Subject: METAL EDGE; Danzig videos; misquotings A fairly-long post follows: There is a 3-page Danzig i/v in the new Metal Edge magazine (cover dated July; Ozzy is the main picture on the cover). The issue also has a very cool 1/3-page colour ad for AMERICAN PSYCHO with the Crimson Ghost holding a torch, the "Famous Monsters" style logo, and "Wake up, Fiends!" at the bottom. Someone asked for a list of post-Lucifuge Danzig videos. In the Misfits Book, Mark has detailed information on the promos available for the following; none of which, aside from the R-rated "How the Gods Kill", have yet been officially-released (except on promos). Here's a list of all Danzig videos NOT on the first two home videos. Note that some were planned, but DO NOT EXIST... I'm the One According to Glenn in a 1991/2 issue of RIP ("It's a Black Thing" article), another edit was made of this video and was shown on tv, but was finished too late to be included on the Lucifuge home video. Part of this edit was shown during a special on "Rock Video Girls" on an "Inside Edition" or "Entertainment Tonight" -type show in 1992. **Blood and Tears supposed to be made in 1990/91 and directed by Anton Corbijn, but scheduling conflicts did not permit it. DEFINITELY DOES **NOT** EXIST Dirty Black Summer (extended and shorter versions) How the Gods Kill (R-rated and censored versions) It's Coming Down (3 dif. cuts: X-rated; The Box; MTV) Mother ['93 fan remix] **Sistinas (never aired or released. John Christ also claimed that live footage was shot for this song and others at the 10/31/92 Irvine Meadows show, and was to be released on the next Danzig home video. Glenn said that American Recordings reneged on their deal with him, which promised a home video for each album, and that now that he is on Hollywood Records, these videos will be realeased -- someday) Until You Call on the Dark Cantspeak (supposedly, 2 final edits exist --one aired on MuchMusic in Canada, with some scenes of Glenn in a forest, those scenes later replaced with footage of Hitler and Stalin etc) I Don't Mind the Pain **Going Down to Die It was reported on MuchMusic in 1995 that they were going to make this video -- apparently not. MOST PROBABLY DOES **NOT** EXIST. **Deep This was going to be made in 1996, but it was rumoured that Glenn had an disagreement with the director (X-Files creator Chris Carter), so the video was never made. Apparently this rumour was incorrect (big surprise), as Glenn claims that his break with American put a stop to the video. Note that "Danzig appears courtesy of American Recordings" on SONGS IN THE KEY OF `X' -- and apparently "Deep" was originally supposed to be on Danzig 5, until Glenn left the label. DEFINITELY DOES **NOT** EXIST. Sacrifice on tv since late 1996/early 1997. Serpentia (Anyone know if this is out yet?) Note also that the videos for "Cantspeak", "I Don't Mind the Pain", and "Sacrifice" are edited to be anywhere from 5-10 seconds shorter than the actual songs are. Last issue, someone misquoted Glenn from the May 97 A.P. (Alternative Press; issue 106 -- Helmet on cover). Glenn did indeed say that he was offered "seven figures; stupid money" to rejoin the Misfits, but he never said Jerry did the offering; he never mentioned Jerry's name at all. His comment therefore does not necessarily conflict with Jerry's claim that Glenn had Doyle and him thrown out of a hotel without ever speaking to them. If I remember correctly, did Jerry not also claim that several record companies and/or concert promoters had approached him and Doyle about reuniting the band? Couldn't these same promoters have approached Glenn as well? Obviously they would have, since he has gone on to further success with Danzig, and is credited with writing all the Misfits' songs and, until around 1993, owning all the artwork, music, etc. Regardless, even if Jerry himself offered Glenn the money, there would be other ways for him to make the offer without reaching him personally. (Such as through his lawyer, agents, or management). Also, a few issues back someone else quoted Glenn, from that same issue, as having said that only 30 people showed up at a recent Boston Misfits show. Read carefully: Glenn said *someone else told him* that only 30 attended the show. He did not know firsthand anything about the show -- and I doubt the person who told him that did either. It is no wonder that so many false rumours and misconceptions about the Misfits and related bands are widespread. Jerry and Doyle have been virtually in the shadows for the last 13 years; the various supporting members of Samhain and Danzig are very rarely interviewed; and Bobby Steele is apparently blackballed by a large portion of the music industry. The only person related to these bands who gets a relatively decent amount of press is Glenn Danzig -- who chooses to say little -- and is often misquoted or misinterpreted in what he does say. If you read the video listing I gave above, you'll see that I tried to be as detailed and precise as possible, and to give sources when known. In many cases, where there is doubt about some information, I say "supposedly" or "apparently" -- because I don't know for sure whether the information is absolutely correct or not. Don't just blindly accept what you read, and evaluate whatever information you are given. And if you are unsure about something yourself, don't repeat it to someone else as if it were absolute fact. And for god's sake, read Mark's Misfits Book. It is set-up in sections so that you can find information on videos, boots, or offical releases without having to read through the whole book. It has more detailed, more reliable, and more organized information than the Bible -- or anywhere else -- and more information, period. -B ------------------------------ From: ~*jas*~ Subject: american psycho rating Date: Wed, 23 Apr 1997 12:11:46 -0500 just got the new rolling stone mag n' they gave American Psycho a star n' a half.... kinda pitiful.

Pretty shitty. They went on to say that Michale was a Glenn wannabee that sounded more like the guy who sings for offspring and that "Day of the Dead" was an Elvis immitation. Rolling Stone can fuck off I say. They did however, show the cover to the new album (it is a Crimson Ghost holding a lit candle holder, and the names of a few of the songs are listed on the left hand side. Pretty cool. It even said "Poster inside" so hopefully we will get a poster with the CD). This review was from a supposed "long time fan". I have not heard the album yet but from the new songs I have heard it sounds like it is going to be cool. I even liked Mars Attacks. I heard the demo version and it is really cool. Most people so far have greased it but I thought it was pretty catchy. And to that guy that said "This Island Earth" was a shitty movie, I just wanted to add that most people consider it a sci fi classic. Lastly, I was wondering if the band plans on writing any songs about the Evil Dead movies. They are some of my personal favorites. I kinda thought that was what Death Comes Ripping was about, but I have never heard anyone mention it before. What do you guys think? LASTLY, I think that Misfits Armbands should go into production SOON! I mean shit, they can do it now so why not? Include it in the CD or the seven inch! And while they are at it, downsize some of those XXL "One size fits Doyle" shirts so a normal sized person can wear it without looking like a whale.

Navdude, I interpreted Rollins laughter due to the way he ate the bannana, if you know what I mean. He was enjoying it a bit too much, perhaps as a joke for all those who will not face reality and admit that he's straight. Maybe I'm wrong. John, the Misfits did Rise Above at several different shows, as well as Negative Approach's "Cant Tell No One" at the last show. I think that's it.

I >guess if they can't act the part they might as well look it ...... Actually I meant Punks in 1985, not Punks today. You can't even compare the two generations. To be a Punk; as I see it, was to dress and act in an individual fashion. Some punks were violent, some were pacifists. Some had the patented leather jacket and mohawk; some were even more outlandish and freaky, and some dressed pretty ordinarily. Just look at old video's and you'll see what I mean. Very few people wore a punk "uniform". Hell, most of those guys back then wouldn't even be considered punks today. But that's just what I think. I may be wrong.

It's on a compilation put out by the music channel called The Box. It also has White Zombie "Thunder Kiss '65" and Korn "Blind" videos (along with some 'alternative' videos). This wrong lyric thing is pretty cool. I thought Violent World started out saying, "Raping young mothers in Mexico". It sounded right. I have a Danzig page at http://members.tripod.com/~AFU69/danzig.html I run a Danzig poll there. So for those of you that do like Danzig, check it out. I was rereading an old Musician Magazine from '94 that has an interview Danzig. Glenn says something to the effect that sometimes he would hum a song and John Christ would play what he hummed (I'm not quoting). That sounds to me like the two of them wrote that. What I'm wondering is, how many times did John, Eerie, or Chuck have enough input into a song that they should have had a co-writing credit that they didn't recieve? I figure that might have to do with the split of the original band (aside from Chuck).

They have 12 original songs to sample, plus 6 MiSFiTs covers. Skulls was also able to be sampled, and that kicked ass as well. Skulls is available on "4 Hits from Mars" MiSFiTS tribute compilation 7"ep from Fandango Records as you probably already know.

The methods for determining the color of the vinyl are wrong. .From the Discography of Misfits Central: > The color of the LP vinyl can be determined by the positioning of the bar code UPC symbol sticker. Green vinyl copies include the sticker on the plastic wrap about a quarter to a half inch from the bottom edge of the back cover. Red vinyl copies include the sticker slightly higher up on the sleeve (about an inch). Clear vinyl copies have the sticker in the upper right corner or have no sticker at all. Black vinyl copies may also not have a bar code sticker. I have a copy that has the sticker on the upper right corner, signifying that it should be a clear copy (I bought it before the black vinyl was released) and this is what I've assumed for a year and a half. I never bothered to open it until today. When I did, the record was red instead of clear. Has this happened to anyone else?

Also, a lot more people showed up than last year in Amsterdam. They had some nice "glow-in-the-dark" skeleton longsleeves (limited to 180, they said) and skeleton gloves. The merchandise guy(he was also last year with them) made a money conversion mistake, so quite some people got their stuff real cheap. The new songs were fast, but they sounded live all right to me. It was very cool, except for Graves performance(not to mention his new hair-cut). His voice is very ok, but the way he tried to "entertain" was a bit pathetic. I`m not saying that Glenn is better etc. or that shit. Hey, Graves attitude and performance was real cool last year in Amsterdam, but now everyone looked at Doyle and Jerry.

LEANNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fiends, if any of you are thinking about dealing with LEANNA WILSON, the girl from iowa state who says she is putting a scrapbook together for glenn, be careful! another fiend, and myself both had unusual experiences with her. the odd part is 'why would glenn want a scrapbook for himself?'. dont you think he could get old passes, pictures and stickers etc. by himself? im sure he saves alot of shit for his own collection. and by now, dont you think he would have a scrapbook of all his stuff...gee he has only been in the music biz for 20+ years. secondly, if you are going to offer her some stuff, give a DEFINITE price one time. i believe in negotiating, but for two fuckin weeks?!?! its gotta stop somewhere. she has asked me for random pieces and their prices at random times for a while...no pattern what so ever. she will send me 10 messgaes in one day, the ill go a week without hearing anything from her. something is fishy. then, to top it off, she has the audacity to request that she will send half her money to me, then i will send her ALL of the stuff. then when she gets it, she will send me the other half. without giving me any solid references (ie people who frequently sell or trade on the bible) i became very skeptical of this bullshit offer. she also has told me numerous times that she is low on cash. what the fuck is the deal with that!?! she expects me to trust her that she will send me half the money AFTER i send her ALL of the stuff when she plainly admits she is near broke? no fuckin way...its not worth the risk. i am not trying to say 'do not deal with her', i am just trying to warn other fiends that if you are going to deal with her, do it by your rules and dont let her take advantage you. make sure you know what your pieces are worth and dont let her make you lolly gag around and hold pieces waiting for her offer...cause you may never get it. hey leanna, if youre out there, you know how much you owe me and if you want the stuff send ALL of your money at once, or forget the whole deal. im not going to trade with you if you dont shape the fuck up. it is cash or nothing. get in touch with me if you are still interested...soon. aaron ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 Apr 1996 18:12:32 -0400 From: aaron pacitti Subject: MONDO INCREDIBLE ok, here is some advice...order adaw wests new cd, MONDO ROYALE. this fucker rocks. from song to song, jake and his crew dont let up. they got some fast shit, some mellow shit to grind to...not really, but it is different. the whole package took a long time to put together, and it is well worth the money. no one is going to go broke over $10. blend the misifts, with MC5, the stooges and every other kick ass band out there, and you got ADAM WEST. it is straight out poppy, power, garage, motor city, DC punk. they draw from a variety of backgrounds and blend it together perfectly. you could pretty much guarantee that you could listen to the whole cd and not get bored. it rocks. i like 6 and 6 is, speedbump, wrong way ronnie and pretty much everything else. plus, jake even has the nuts to thank the entire misfits bible! cmon, jake has done alot for the bible...4 hits from mars, all of his fan club and regualr singles, and now this. show some decency and help out a guy who has helped this place out so much. you wont regret it. thanks jake and AW, aaron ps-pick up the times square cd while your at it. that is incredible too. mail bobby for all the good info. also, support times square if they come to your town. bobby has worked so hard for the past decade...lets help him out. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 24 Apr 1996 18:12:33 -0400 From: aaron pacitti Subject: CLEVO will that other fiend from the clevo/akron area mail me!!!!!!!!!! im from cleveland too. please. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 24 Apr 1997 18:28:52 -0400 From: Scott Perry Subject: Bela Lugosi Hey Fiends, There is a Bela Lugosi "King of the Vampires" cold cast limited edition statue available from Dark Horse comics for $175 if any one is interested.

They were just sort of a band for everybody. If you could appreciate good music, no matter what your taste, you ended up liking the Misfits. Metalheads, Skinheads, Street Punks, Gutter Punks, and Normals all could agree that the Misfits Rocked! 2)A lot of music is reigional. The Germs were big in Calif. among the few Punks who were real, while they weren't that big here in NY. The Krays were a great band here, but virtually unheared of outside of the tri-state area. there is no way that all Misfits fans, even the ones into this so-called "Punk" that Mtv tried to feed you, could like the same bands. 3) Certain people don't like things for political reasons. Two of my favorite bands were Skrewdriver and Crass, which had completely opposite views, but weren't afraid to voice them. I don't agree with either, but I enjoy the music because it's good. Some people can't listen to Skrewdriver because they were nazis. Some people can't listen to Crass because they are communist anarchists. Personally, I theink they're both stupid, but talented. Also, in response to Punkture, I WON'T listen to Operation Ivy. You want to know why? BECAUSE THEY'RE FAKE AND THEY SUCK. And you want to know something else? When Lars from Rancid attempted to sing a song with the Blanks '77 in New York City, I was one of the first kids on stage to kill him, or at least send him back to California where he belongs!

Hello fiends... first off i should remind you all that you have till Sunday 10pm to get your answers in if you have not already sent them in. i am hoping to get the first issue together for Monday, i hope. Jon, This Island Earth is a Scifi movie yet it was part of the horror gen at the time. 1950's had tons of movies that ranged in their content but were all part of the same selling concept. actually just as music has different gens so does horror movies. Sci fi does not always have some factor of fear in it. these movies did and purposely did. Plus the Misfits are trying to stick to what Glenn was known to use for song ideas. Someone mentioned Violent World and the magazine. Bobby is the one to answer that. he had once told me the story on the phone with how Glenn would see a magazine and just from looking at the pictures and quickly glancing at the article he would write his songs from that. Bobby you need to jump in since you tell the story better than i do. Jess, good luck on the job interview!!! Blag, you are slow boy. the CD has been out for quite awhile. as for your pathetic rip on Bobby, i think you were correct in staying away all this time. maybe going back from where you were and staying would be a good thing on your behalf ! Misfits 101... Cons to go to... not many but i would like to go to sleep in the next 10 min. you know the deal by know, if you want the info just write. I'll be here with the my friends watching game 5 of the Panther and the Ranger(the little shits that cheated in game 3) April 25 West Hollywood, CA(25 - 27); Niagara Falls, NY (25- 27); 26 Dayton, OH; 27 Buena Park, CA; Richmond, IN; Chelmsford, MA; White Plains, NY; Amityville, NY; Cleveland, OH; Canby, OR; Scranton-Wilkes Barre, PA again, bring your own bag, cash, a check and a credit card(if you have one) trade pieces to help. stay clear of the guys with the record players under their arms, if you see something make up your mind when holding it. do not put it down or you can kiss it good-bye. print up a copy of Misfits 101 from Misfits Central, cause all your details are there for original releases. good luck. well i hope everyone has a great weekend. get your answers in if you have not done so at this point.

If you have a preference for either one of those places, let me know. I'll take a count of votes and give it to the band. 2) STATIC AGE as a separate album release will be out in the middle of the summer, although the date isn't set yet. As discussed before, it will include the 14 songs on the box set, as well as the original non-overdubbed versions of "She" and "Spinal Remains" ... and yes, it will also include the previously unreleased "In The Doorway." Before everyone riots, please refer to my post a few issues ago about why these songs weren't included on the box set.

The album will never come out because Glenn said so. What I heard from my former manager was that Caroline gave it one listen; realized that what I had said about it being bogus was true - and offered to release the REAL recording, with me on guitar. If you recall, Jerry was trying to pawn it off as a DOYLE era show - claiming that it was recorded in '81. I guess, in his infinite wisdom, he forgot that Max's was closed by December ' 81. >Personally I get a kick out of all the anal types that rank on GnR's >of this. It's A FUCKING COVER people, So they changed around a few >big fucking deal. Let's just be glad that bands such as Gn'R recognized THE MISFITS for what we were. I met those guys and I was never treated so well by anyone in the music biz. They invited me to the following Friday's show in Boston - and when Axl got struck with laryngitis they saw to it that I was contacted (in the middle of the night) so I wouldn't find myself driving 4 hours for nothing. THen they went on to offer to put me on the V.I.P. list for every other show on the tour. "How about Charlotte, NC - can ya get down there? we'll be in Montreal on . . . ." You may not care for their music, but they are genuinely nice guys. I can go on about lots of other great things they've done - if you really care to know. They even showed up at the CONTINENTAL (a very small bar/club in NYC) and did a free show with openers SKID ROW. >Set. And further more on the Undead's "Dawn of.."

That sounds to me >like the two of them wrote that. That's not true. John was merely playing what Glenn created. That's called "transcription", I believe. Many authors have secretaries who actually write the story down as the author dictates it. Otherwise, I could say I wrote all those MISFITS songs where Glen said - " play ' ba-da-ba-da'". >From: punkture >Subject: Vampira > >Does anybody have a clue as to what doyle played for vampira on Walk >Among Us?I mean the part he plays after the E,F,D intro and during the >verses.Not the chord name but the exact tab or reasonably close. I'm pretty sure he played the same thing as me. Play the open E string, while, on the A string rock between the 7th and 9th frets (dah dot dahdot - as Glenn would say). When the chord changes, play the same pattern on the A and D strings. >From: Bikinienvy@aol.com >Subject: bOoTLeGS~New Misfits Album~Etc. >And my opinion on the new MISFITS album.....I think its terrible. THey >dont >sound like a metal band in concert but they do on American >Psycho...... I've seen a lot of you ripping into this CD. I've heard it, and It's still not as great as Glenn's MISFITS, but it doesn't suck. It just doesn't quite live up to the REAL MISFITS. If they had gone under a different name, it'd be a very good debut album. I thought the last two songs were the best. When I turned over the tape, there was some really great punk rock stuff. Dave. Who is that other band ? They rock! >From: GKichli1@mobile.bam.com >Subject: 1.38 posting!!! > >ps--I was at the Agnostic Front show saturday and they kept on sending >songs out to the DMS crew.

DMS were a bunch of skinheads who did nothing but cause trouble. They once stormed an UNDEAD gig and beat the shit out of SQUID, of the LUNACHICKS. Real macho men. One of them was convicted for killing a guy because he was gay. They're a pretty useless bunch of future cops. >From: The Guy At The Taco Bell Drivethru
