By the way fiends, I saw Times Square in Richmond on Friday May 31st and they put on a great show for the crowd there. They headlined with about 6 bands opening for them as part of a big music festival that was going on all weekend. Bobby, Jill, and Dave were all a lot of fun to talk to, and we all (EVB and D-Rod too) went on to a diner with terrible service whose owners will probably fear New Yorkers for the rest of time. Make sure to check out Times Square live - Bobby's bass is mysteriously (!) about 10 times better live than on the album. He and Jill really seem to have a lot of fun up onstage. Also, please don't send mail to bible-fiends@plan-9.com - this is an address that bounces mail to everyone on the mailing list and is only supposed to be used for the actual bibles, as opposed to any mail. I believe I have the problem fixed so it won't happen in the future. We'll see about that. Finally, I got back from NY a bit early, so we only had to miss Monday's issue. mark ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 30 May 1997 14:57:50 +0200 From: roland.carlsson@hks.se (Pontus Carlsson) Subject: Die,Die My Darling shirt Hello!

Sorry man, but I think those spice girl videos are pretty cool. I would rather watch 5 half naked chicks that 4 half naked guys. I mean, it's cool that the Misfits are making a video, but I dont think MTV would be the coolest place for it. Also, does anyone out there think "Dont Open Til Doomsday" is about the Hellraiser movies? Just curious. Also, I was wondering if someobody could help me out here. IF the band decided to release a live record under Geffen, would they be aloud to perform old songs? I think this would be a kick ass idea. That way we could hear Michale sing the old shit.

Can it be that the Saber Inc. company information has a TYPO? As long as you're calling innocent people in the middle of the night and pissing them off asking for "Saber Inc." anyway, why don't you try: (201) 764-3700.

He was breaking into a pedicurist shop with a friend when Oblina, Crum and Ickus scared them off. Now I know what you're thinking. "What is this fool doing watching cartoons." I like 'em.

I had seen them rehearse but never play a show. I will keep this post as short as possible but I willjust say they kicked ass. Very professional never a slip in the entire set. The music was loud and fast with great rythm and great singing. Bobby takes the mic for prts of the songs and his bass playing is amazing, dave ari's drum are perfect. I remember wtching them rehearse and i couldnt get it out of my how good that guy is, and I really dont pay attention to the drums I mean i listen the overall song how it sounds together. But they are great people and live for their music, their integrity is strong. Imade a four hr trip just o see them and It was all worth it. EVB and mark made it to the show as well and we all got the new Times Square t-shirts ( which are great looking shirts) and our cd's signed. The CD now, I had stayed away from the CD cuz I thought to myself "well bobby didnt play on it so I dont want it" But I am glad I have it now I cant the songs out of my head i have brought to work and every one loves this disc!

My modem frequently disconnects itself for some reason, and when it does, random commands are sometimes entered into the program (that is the reason for the scrambled stuff in the messages you got from me). I believe what happened was that the "reply" command was entered; when I choose to send a reply to the Bible, I am given an option to send it via Mark, or directly to each person who received the original message -- and this evidently happened. Some of you emailed me with strange and creative ideas or questions for why I may have re-sent the issue, but I assure you, it was purely unintentional -- there is no hidden significance. To those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, if you have a message from me in your mailbox that says "Re: Misfits Bible, #340", you can ignore it.

Format change?? Here is my theory... 1: anyone who sends mail to bible-fiends@plan-9.com will have mail sent out on a list to everyone on the misfit bible.. Very much like a mailing list server. I'm not sure if this is the future of the bible.. actually it may be better.. easier to delete worthless posts. Though the current bible digest format is good too. 2: I think we should stop posting to bible-fiends until we find out what the deal is on the misfit bible. Otherwise you'll just have alot of annoyed people who think they are getting spam, when in reality your getting the misfit bible posts as they are sent. Whether this is the way to go or not.. again.. let's keep it to the bible until we find out the agenda of the list. 3: any questions regarding this mailing list should be sent to the misfit bible not this list.. at least until we find out what's up. All discussion about this listserver should be sent to the misfit bible to avoid future duress. I agree that their should be some kind of formal announcement or something.. and finding oneself on a misfit list server is a bit uhmm... confusing.

Kuder" Subject: American Psycho review. Here is a review of American Psycho from Cleveland's Scene magazine: The Misfits AMERICAN PSYCHO Geffen The ghouls are back. Over a decade elapsed since vocalist Glenn Danzig quit the Misfits to chart his solo career. And his dark, macabre metal albums -- including DANZIG, LUCI-FUGE, and the recent BLACKACIDEVIL -- have all enjoyed success. But whatever happened to his fellow 'Fits? Ask no more. Like the vampires and zombies often depicted in classic Misfits songs, bassist Jerry Only resurrected the Lodi, New Jersey group in 1995 and determined to keep the legend alive -- with or without Danzig. Recruiting singer Michael Graves (who, wet behind the ears at 25, had never heard of the Misfits before) to fulfill vocal duties, the band hit the road for a year-long tour. Most bands would've had to dust the cobwebs off their instruments after so long a hiatus. Not so for these hardcore rockers and horror movie fans -- they put the cobwebs back on. And now, with AMERICAN PSYCHO (their first release for Geffen), the Misfits have fresh material to incorporate into their hyperactive live sets. Longtime followers of the band will be pleased, as the second incarnation of the Misfits is not your average nostalgic, watered-down reunion -- these guys are picking up right where they left off with WALK AMONG US and EARTH A.D. in the mid 1980s. Tracked at Dreamland Recording Studios with producer Daniel Vey, AMERICAN PSYCHO is another powerful testament to the Misfits' cult status as progenitors of modern thrash metal. Commencing with the eerie instrumental "Abominable Dr. Phibes," the band wastes little time shifting to fifth gear. Breakneck cuts "American Psycho" and "Speak Of The Devil" draw strength and stamina from the muscular guitar work of Jerry's brother, Doyle -- and provide listeners with their first dosage of studio Misfits sans Danzig. Graves does a superb impression of the former singer's ominous baritone on "The Hunger" and the bluesy, Elvis-inspired "Day Of The Dead." But it's clear that this kid has his own distinctive set of full-ranged pipes. "Dig Up Her Bones," in which Graves bemoans the death of a fictional lover, boasts an urgent, radio ready chorus -- Point me to the sky above, I can't make it on my own/Show me to the graveyard and dig up her bones! "This Island Earth" and "Mars Attacks" depict one of the band's favorite subjects (the annihilation of the entire planet via alien invasions from outer space) and pack typical sing-songy, three-chord refrains. Sure, the subject matter on PSYCHO is campy, and most of the lyrics involve gore in both the living and dead variety -- verses about shredded flesh are juxtaposed with images of eyeless corpses and fang-toothed demons. The Misfits made a name for themselves by combining their two loves -- punk rock and schlock horror films -- into one unique and unsettling art form. Fans who once banged their heads to "Return Of The Fly," "Vampira," and "Astro Zombies" can now mosh to "Crimson Ghost" and "From Hell They Came." The material contains heaps upon bloody heaps of graphic content, which is par for this counter-culture band; listener discretion is definitely advised. Dr. Chud (the Misfits' Cannibalistic Humanoid Under-ground Drummer) is the percussive engine that drives PSYCHO's 17 cuts with his double kick bass drums charging like pistons. Only's frantic basswork gives the songs their distinctive, palpitating grooves -- but in remote spots his work is nearly smothered by the guitar-heavy mix. Doyle and Graves each turn in extraordinary performances, and it is established by the album capper "Don't Open 'til Doomsday" that the Misfits have awakened from their Lodi coffins with a vengeance. Metallica (who once paid tribute to the Misfits with their cover of "Last Caress/Green Hell") used to rock like this -- they should pick up a copy and take exhaustive notes if they're to ever overcome LOAD. Be sure to stay tuned after the last song ends. Bonus track "Hellnight" (a song the Misfits debuted at their Odeon appearance last year) is buried under three minutes of stereo silence. With it, the band also inters any fleeting memories of Danzig.

The rules are simple: You go to my webpage, write down the number on the webcounter on the intro page. Then after enter to the main page; go to DARK PLACES which is where I keep some of stuff I've written, and give me a brief synopsis of the short-story called "FIRST". I'll have a drawing on June 13th and announce the winners on the bible. No multiple entries. Now, because I'm such an utter an complete bastard I won't tell you WHERE my webpage is. HA-HA-HA-HA-HA ! However I will give y'all two clues: 1- You can link from it from within Mark Kennedy's page (That's a BIG fucking clue if you ask me...) 2- My site is named after my band which is in it's turn named after a conterversial Oliver Stone movie. Now, if cannot find the damn thing please do not send me some whining e-mail expecting me to feel sorry for your pathetic ass. This is not the entrance exam to MENSA you do not have to be "Wile E Coyote Genius" to solve this little riddle. I am also aware that many of you do not have web access and thus are unfortunately not eligible. My humble apologies to you all; but that's the way of the world. Things can't always be fair. I promise that I will have a contest for the WHOLE bible eventually but for now ONLY those with web access can participate, sorry. ****The prizes will be as follow: First Prize: Your choice of gold, blue, or black vinyl 4 HITS FROM MARS EP. Second Prize: Your choice of the two colors left for 4 HITS FROM MARS. Third Prize: The remaining 4 HITS EP. GOOD LUCK !!! Jeremy PS: A *BIG* thank you goes to Jake Starr for helping me out. Those of you out there who haven't supported Jake by buying MONDO ROYALE, 4 HITS FROM MARS or other Fandango/Adam West merchandise should be ashamed of themselves. Jake busted his ass for you; show some appreciation. He's still got some 4 HITS EP's left. Buy them before they're all gone and you find yourself regretting you didn't. He only pressed 300.

Also, Lyle Preslar played guitar for Samhain in its infancy, but in the Initium cd a photo from the first show at Rock Hotel 3/84 clearly shows Glenn on guitar.

I missed the first half hour, but taped the rest. Anyways, I figured out why the Misfits chose that name. First, here's a brief summary of the movie. Roslyn divorces Ray in Reno, then meets widower Guido. He likes her but introduces her to cowboy Gay and those two fall in love. When she learns that Gay, Guido and Perce are going to turn wild horses ("misfits") into dogfood, she protests. The horses are called misfits 'cause nobody wants them. They aren't good enough for racing or riding or whatever. So they are basically ostricized. They are the freaks, the strange ones, the outcasts. See the connection? I thought this was pretty cool. By the way, this movie is not a horror movie. I figured it would be. For those of you that don't know, nn the back of the Misfits first 7" single Cough/Cool, they thank Marilyn Monroe, Clarke Gable, and Montgomery Clift, who were the stars of the movie. It was also the last film Monroe and Gable would ever make.

It seems that once again the bible is full of flames. Why can't you fucks just settle your shit OFF the bible. Misfits bible used to be a place where FRIENDS could talk about the MISFITS. What the fuck is it now? Its full of worthless bullshit about how much soeone hates/likes bobby/jerry, white/black power, etc., etc., etc. It seems the bible was different about a year ago. I could actually stand to read it then. Don't think I'm putting down anyone in particular, just all the people that are too childish and selfish to even consider really wanting to learn something and post something meaningfull. Half the people just want to see their name in the list. Great job guys. Hope you're happy. Anyway, sorry if I'm wasting anyones time. I know I am but I don't consider this post to be worthless. I got a few questions too. The is allowed here right? First, What happened to Eerie Vons #? Last time I called, he said he was moving and the # was gonna be changed. I didn't quite hear it all. I didn't call back cause I live in GA and it runs up my phone bill calling. Anyway, next question, Michale ever get another Email adress? He told me he was cancelling it but not if he was getting another. Anyone know? Next, any REAL tour dates yet? I've heard alot of roumers.Saw them on the last tour and can't wait to see them again. AND THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION. I live in GA and I've heard from about 4-5 hardcore fiends the Glenn was gonna jam with the misfits and some comic convention in Atlanta. I kinda doubted it. Anyone know FOR SURE? Well, I guess I've wasted enough time. To the guy with the HARLOCK shirts. Still got any? I want one if you got any left. Let me know. I'm talking bids on some Fit's records. Orig. and boots. I'll post the list when I get it straightened out. JuStIn ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 04 Jun 1997 22:06:26 -0400 From: "Riot bOi!" Subject: assorted crap Hey everybody, I haven't posted in a while, so I thought I may as well now. AP, I finaly got it, I like it, the end. To roger, or whoever... The guys DID release a CD with Michale singing the old songs. It was called "Shocking Return of the Misfits" 'member? I got a dubbed copy from a fellow fiend. It has a bunch of old stuff along with "Blacklight" "The Hunger," and "The Haunting" I doubt they could release an official one on geffen, cuz they don't own the songs, Glenn does. Oh hey, I got a sighting for you all... I was in the doctors office yesterday cuz I had a sore throat from hell, and it kinda worried me(never had a bleeding blister in me throat before) Anyway, there was one of those "made for doctors office" books with illistrations by kids in it. I picked it up cuz the art can sometimes be amazingly good. The book was called, "Kids Say Don't Smoke" I guess you all can figure what it was about. Well, all the pictures had people smoking and dying and stuff. Toward the end, I came across somebody very familiar starring at me... That's right, guys and gals, the good 'ol Crimson Ghost telling me not to smoke. No, it didn't happen to vaguely remind me of him, it WAS him. It was obviously traced off of "EVILIVE" cuz of the hands that were holding ciggarette packs. I guess he was representing the reaper to that kid or something. The artists name was Tim something from Statan Island. He probably found his older brothers Misfits collection and thought it looked cool. Well, I gotta admit, I thought it was pretty cool the first time I saw it too. It was "The Misfits skull" for the longest time to me and my friends, and we didn't know of any "Crimson Ghost." We do now, so I guess that's the important thing :) My friend Nate always draws him killing masses of people. Nate's pretty cool. He has nothing to do, so he draws a lot. Oh, Hey Bobby, I listened to that stuff you call music on the Times Square page! You Jerry wannabe :) I'm kiddin Bobby, I liked it a lot. Is there anyway I can get that and Undead stuff in Kentucky? I hate mail order. I've been screwed over too many times to trust the postal service. BTW, I like your big hair. It makes me feel kinda funny, like when I used to climb the ropein gym class ;) One more thing. In that movie, "Mask" (the 80's movie where Cher is a coke-head biker with a son who has some weird desease that makes his head all big), their house address is 138, and when Rocky(cher's kid) goes to school, he gets assigned locker #138.

Well, actually, we Detroit residents call it Devil's Night, and always have. October 30, the night before Halloween, all hell breaks loose all over the greater metropolitan Detroit area. Everyone always talks about the arsons, but they neglect to mention all the minor vandalism that still occurs. People go crazy with throwing toilet paper all over things, throwing rotten eggs at houses, and smearing shaving cream on inconvenient places (like cars). Of course, the pigs had to decide that this holiday was unsafe or some such rot and have really cracked down and enacted a harsh 6:00 curfew. I was stopped on the way home from work because I was "suspicious looking." I.E. teenager. Well, the police crackdown was effective: Devil's Night actually had FEWER fires last year than we have on a typical day. (the average is 60 fires a day, last year was 43 or something) Just think about what would happen if the Misfits played Detroit on Devil's Night! That would be a plan... >From the Arson Capital of the World, --Erik Cheapskate ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 04 Jun 1997 23:26:58 -0400 From: margret paolini Subject: Anyone,Anyone,Anyone.......

I'm watching this movie on Showtime, I think it's British. It's called Cemetary Man. It's about a guy who's paid to keep watch over a cemetary. He's got this fat, roley poley little assistant. The problem they have is that recently, 7 days after dying, these people keep coming back. He calls them returners. It's an awesome movie, and I could see it as being somewhat related to "Dig Up Her Bones". Maybe it is related, or maybe they might write a song for it, it is awesome, and I swear the background music sounds at times like Black Ariah. Oh shit, this chick came back from the dead, and now they're making out....it could be "Dig Up Her Bones"... uh oh, she just took an axe to the head... Well, I recommend the movie, and I haven't even finished it yet... laterz, Eric ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 5 Jun 1997 14:16:44 -0400 (EDT) From: "Dr. Benway" Subject: 'Fits review in Metal Edge In the August issue of Metal Edge, there is a small, 4 paragraph review for AP and the tribute album.

NINOSKY" Date: Thu, 5 Jun 1997 16:32:20 PST Subject: guitar: Doyle's methodology I'm wondering about the strumming Doyle employs on the latest album. For example, in "American Psycho", I am of the opinion that he uses alternate picking on the palm muted F-G#-C verse portion of the song, as it seems a little fast to do all downstrokes. Anyone know for sure? Also, what is the strumming pattern Doyle uses for WAU and EAD? It doesn't sound like the Ramones standard dum-dum, dum, dum-dum. Jerry's bass overrides the guitar to an extent that it is hard to discern what the hell Doyle is doing.

This was "Archangel" which was supposed to be a Misfits song with Dave Vanian singing. Instead it ended up as the first Samhain song, recorded with Glenn on vocals, guitar and drums, and Al Pike of Reagan Youth on bass. They put the song together in August of '83 and Eerie added another bass track later. ACcording to Jerry, the Misfits version of "Archangel" was never recorded.

The Misfits never actually recorded that song; Glenn was either lying or mistaken when he said that. The only known recording of it is the Samhain version. Lyle Preslar never played live with Samhain. (Or did he, Mark? I forget...) Anyway, there is a good deal of information about this if you look in the Misfits and Samhain Timelines in the Discography section of the WWW page. WALKDV@concentric.net: The "Possession" intro is the Lord's Prayer ("Our Father...") in latin. I don't know exactly which portions Glenn can be heard saying, but I think it's just the beginning of the prayer ("In nomina patria et filius et spiritu sanctum" ["In the name of the father, and of the son, and of the holy spirit"]). About 150 or 200 issues ago someone posted the full latin prayer to the Bible, but you could probably find it in a library somewhere. Any latin students out there want to post it again? -Brett ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 05 Jun 1997 23:18:09 -0700 From: TWiTCH Subject: Westside???????

Dear fiends, After more than a decade the Misfits are back with a new album, (As you all know by now) !!! I first started listening to the "Misfits" when I was a young lad. I was, and still am a Danzig follower. Constantly all around me everywhere I went I saw these little skateboard punks wearing misfits shirts and causing shit for others. But it was somewhat cool, they all had unity towards one another !! There was a little cult following of the misfits in my hometown when I was younger, but you can read more about that on my homepage http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Club/3810 Anyways, I am a true fiend, atleast I think so. I eat, sleep, shit the misfits !! I have all there stuff and concert rarities, The Box Set is my most prized possession though. I listen to it every day. I was astounded and thrilled when I found out a few months ago that the Misfits had resurrected & had a new album comming out !! I was like," The kings of punk are back !! But it didn't have Glenn. Was it going to be good ? So I ordered it, and it was all I listened to for a few days. It wasn't the old misfits, no but a good effort nuntheless. I kept telling myself that they would have a few clunkers without Glenn's songwriting abilities but most of the songs were okay. Then I got to listening heavy to the Box Set again, and I realized why I had started listening to the misfits in the first place !!! Unity, the" you got my back , I got yours, lets kick some ass !!" ,type shit !! The kick ass hardcore that had a hard yet sweet sound and untouched lyrics !! And when reading the bio (from the Box Set) for the umpteenth time after recieving , "American Psycho" I was like laughing about the "Do it yourself part", everyone knows it !! Why let someone tell you how to dress, act, or sing, for that matter when you could, "Do It Yourself" !!! Are the Misfits doing it there way with Geffen, or did they sell out ?? And it really pisses me off when I read all the articles about Michale Graves having never heard a misfits song when he auditioned, I certainly don't see any Unity there !! If i were Jerry/Doyle, I would consider it a *slap in the face* to hear Michale saying , I think the Misfits are better now than they were 15 yrs ago. How in the fuck would he know he hadn't even heard of them until the ressurection, but , just by the fact that his older brother had listened to them when he was younger !! You can't have Unity if you don't REALLY know something inside and out !! I have dear respect for Jerry & Doyle trying to keep the dream alive & going, but i think it's dying ... If I go to a show it will be out of the simple respect for them it won't be to see Michale. ~ R.I.P. ~ cyberpunk138@webtv.net slavemonkeyhate@hotmail.com "LiVe FaSt , DiE" !!!!!!

The horror! Blag> Thank you for your meaningless flames. And to both you and your AOL buddy Rocky, listen to Kryst The Conqueror. Have you ever heard them? Listen to the new misfits record. They are now a cock rock band dressed up as a punk band. Just like Goldfinger is a cock rock band acting like a ska band. I am a fiend. I have been a fiend for quite some time. On the other hand the new record is shit and until Jerry is not running the misfits (and no it's not an issue of Glenn... they just need someone other than Jerry who can get the spirit of the misfits right) I will not respect the NewFits. On the other hand Bobby Steele does records in his own style and doesn't pander to people's trends. Glenn does pander to a degree but hell... he has talent which Jerry does not (as a songwriter/band leader). Now anyway who gives a fuck. If you want to flame me send me mail and have fun.

I was lucky enough to see them three times last year, but I had to travel about a thousand miles in my shitbox car (it's never been the same) and spend around 400 bucks. I would love to check them out again, but I can't afford it unless they come to a town a little closer than last time. And as far as bootlegs go, most of them are shit. Shocking Return is OK, but the at the shows I saw Michales voice was a lot better than it was on that CD, and it's not even a full length show.

On a lark in a local Best Buy, though, I figured what the hell (this was after reading a positive review in Entertainment Weekly). It's true that the new singer's no Glenn, but his vocals sound better with the band than Glenn's ever really did, with a few exceptions (I thought "skulls" was a damned great song they did back then). Anyway to make a short story long, the new album's absolutely great, totally kick ass- it really reminds me of the Ramones in their heyday while also not mellowing at all - and I was around back when "walk among us" was released on vinyl. Glenn's stuff pales in comparison, all his serious posturing as the poster boy for brooding religious thought - what does he think he is...a theologian or something? It got old, these new guys are fun. Period. Fiends keeping the faith. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 03 Jun 1997 22:55:39 -0500 From: crypt33@ldd.net (TONY BRIDGES) Subject: HATE THE LIVING, LOVE THE DEAD greetings, hellhounds: found a possible influence 4 the song Hate the Living...Persephone may back me up on this....Andy Warhol's Frankenstein!

There is also some Real Audio interviews there. Check it out. ------------ Glenn Danzig is quietly becoming one of the busiest men in show business. The metal muscleman (whose band Danzig is currently plotting out a European tour) says he may be strapping on a fistful of blades to take on the role of Wolverine in an upcoming big screen adaptation of the "X-Men" comic book series. "A while ago I met with 20th Century Fox about this role, and they told me that the role of Wolverine was indeed probably going to be gritty, although they didn't know about the other characters, and I didn't really care about the other characters," Danzig said. "At that time, Richard Donner was the executive producer. I think now Bryan Singer is going to direct, so we'll see. If Bryan Singer directs, the guy who did 'Usual Suspects,' it could be pretty good." Danzig told MTV News that if the role is "gritty" enough, he will challenge the only other actor he's heard mentioned for the part, Jean Claude Van Damme, for the honor of joining the squad of mutant crime fighters. The former Misfits frontman recently got his feet wet in the movie pool with a role in the upcoming Christopher Walken vehicle, "Prophecy II." In the film, Danzig plays a dark angel henchman to Christopher Walken's Gabriel, who is having some serious problems with the cushy treatment God bestows on human beings. Danzig may also turn up in an upcoming film from Wes Craven ("Scream," "Nightmare on Elm Street," "Last House on the Left") as well as the Rob Zombie-directed installment in the "Crow" series. The singer is still waiting to see scripts for those projects, and while he jumped at the chance to work for Craven (Danzig has long admired the director's work), he was less thrilled about the first two "Crow" films. "Rob Zombie is a friend, and he mentioned that he wanted me to do a role, or his agent had told me that they wanted me to do a role in the 'Crow' movie which Rob is directing," Danzig explained. "I'll have to see the role, but if Rob wants me to do it, and if I like it even half way, I'll do it as a favor, for sure." While stepping off of the stage and onto a movie set with Christopher Walken or Wes Craven might seem like a huge leap, Danzig said that the elaborate videos he has a penchant for prepared him for life in front of the cameras. "A lot of people don't realize that video is film," Danzig told MTV News. "It's cameras there, and of course you see it as a three or four minute clip on MTV or any other station. It's actually film. It gets shot, and there is a crew of about 30 or 40 people there. You have cameras. You have extras, you know, you have a director. It's the same thing as film. You've got to go through the same process too. It's only a little different. It's easy to work with film because you have lines to say and the director kind of says what to do. It's not always the case when you're trying to do a music video... you have a problem when the director doesn't tell you what to do!" ----------- So maybe he _will_ play Wolverine. I guess will just have to wait... -TiM ------------------------------ From: LCBL95A@prodigy.com (MR BENJAMIN W BARNARD) Date: Sat, 7 Jun 1997 17:40:13, -0500 Subject: vinyl/9:30 club Hello Fiends I have a question...when figuring out if you have a 1st press record, could the dates that are sometimes scratched onto the inner part of the vinyl tell you? For example: I have a Die Die... which has 5-84 etched in it where the code numbers are on the inner area. Do they scratch 'em all w/the origional date, or do they change the date when represses are made in a later year? Of course bootlegs and some smaller label records don't seem to have these. Are the numbers date codes? I have noticed a few of my records with month/year markings which correspond to origional release dates (as according to Mark's page) which leads me to believe that maybe some of them are legit. Another thing I was wondering about was the fact that when Mark mentioned WolfsBlood/Evilive 12" (Aggressive Rock Productions) he mentioned that they were "supposedly" available w/2 different stickers in the middle. The common Black w/silver writing and a fewer number with Silver/Black. I have a silver/black and was wondering if it was truly a lesser number print. One more thing (if you are not asleep that is) Are the tickets for the 9:30 club on sale yet?

What type of bass did Jerry play in the early >80's?(Rickenbacher?)(sic) For his Rickenbakers it would have been a 4001 model in the mid to late 70s, and then either a 4001, 4003 or 4003S after 79 or so as all three were available, and are impossible to tell apart from far away. The 4003 and 4001 have stereo output jacks (each pickup can be amplified separately). The 4003S only had mono output. The 4001 had dual truss rods and was recommended to be used with flatwound bass strings only. The 4003(s) had single truss rods. >2. Does anybody have a good picture of the bass( not the new >Devistator model he designed) There is one on the web page I think, but it looks just like the one Lemmy has been playing for years, 'cept Lemmys is Mapleglo (natural wood) whereas Jerry would probably have a black one .. :) -- "Hit Paydirt with KDRT" ------------------------------ From: bigdaddy@The7thHouse.com Date: Sun, 08 Jun 1997 14:06:40 -0700 Subject: Vinyl For Sale The following items are for sale: 1.

I went into Burger King and ordered some food, and the guy behind the counter said: "Hey, I like your patch." And I said "Give me my damn fries." I never said it was a good story. Anyway, I'm still wearing this stinky old jacket when I go to rent Tromeo & Juliet this weekend, and the guy behind the counter points to the patch and stutters... "Is that for that local band?" And I'm confused until I realize that he means the Fismits, a local Misfits coverband that only plays on Halloween (a band lacking in talent but excelling in cool flyers, also, a band I am in, so...)... and I ask him which local band, and he says "the Misfits I think?"

Subject: More training in trading... Hello fiends... first off someone asked about Alternative Tentacles Records #10, well now that i ripped my collection of list apart searching for my AT list. I'll have to look some more. I don't know that one right off the top of my head. value wise, it depends on the band in this case. AT records that are worth money are items like the Dead Kennedys records that have extra bits in them. I had two copies of one of those lps that came with a 7" and another with a flexi. The best person to ask about that is Ken Ward who bought all those from me a couple years ago. Plus the fact that he is a bible fiend. To be honest the money is under the labels like Touch and Go, Dischord, Subpop, Dangerhouse, Revelation, and obviously Plan-9. There are a few stray labels that have records worth as much as labels that i just listed. Though most of the collectors and traders know that by now. Though finding them is even that much harder. You could pick up an issue of Maximum Rock and Roll and see some of the ads for collectors who are searching for these records. You start to learn the names after awhile being that they will offer up some Misfits items in trade for these items. Though its back to the same thing that i have been saying in Misfits 101 for months, that if you don't know your shit than your just another victim waiting to get screwed. I know that sounds pretty bad, but that is what its down to. They don't give two shits, all they see it as is scoring a good deal. And ripping off a fiend is no skin off their noses. After years of trading you will remember most of the records, labels, #'s, values, etc. Though i can never point out how important it is to log this info down or keep the papers from your records. Most companies have a catalog with a full list of all the records that they released. I do know that there are ones for, SST, T&G, Frontier, Dischord, Taang! and a couple others. Though you could write the company and ask for a catalog, though in certain cases you will not get the info you want. T&G still have not rereleased their first 10 and those will not appear in a new catalog. Where as with SST they have pressed the hell out of everything. It is a lot to learn, and it is also what saved my ass for the pass years. My listing in the collectors section of Misfits Central shows that, and yes i know that a lot of you keep asking about when i will be updating it, soon. Don't take this as me bragging, this is me pointing out to all of you how to get by. If you think you could just jump in feet first to a trade your a fool. I'm sure by now that enough of you saw what could happen in trading on the bible a couple months ago. Do remember it can happen to the best of us, even the ones who have been trading for 10+ years. Next, once again i must remind you all that I'm running that auction for Chris Besaw. This is the info: the way this goes is, the Auction will run for two weeks from this issue. The highest bids will then be notifed and given the info to contact Chris directly. What's up for bids you ask: 1) I Hear Ya - CD comp, still sealed 2) Huckem - CD promo from Geffen Records 3) American Psycho - CD - advanced promo plus there are a couple non auction items if you are interested in making an offer just to outright buy these records off Chris. 1) Metallica - self titled 12" - 2 x records. 2) Biohazard - promo 12" on orange vinyl 3) Pixies - promo 12" send bids and offer to tes777@bridge.net by June 20. well its late as usual.

It wasn't at SMASH!, I found it down the street at Orphius Records. It was only $9.99 too. First off, the cover of the LP is cooler than the CD. Why did they put 'Poster Inside' on the cover of the CD instead of on a sticker? I think it looks stupid. And then they list some of the songs but not all of them. As to say, "Here, listen to these songs. They're cool. The rest of the songs? Oh, well they suck." The LP just sez "Misfits" and "American Psycho" like a real album. I really like the song Dead Kings Rise, although those who think Jerry and the boyz have gone born again will think this song is another tribute to Jesus. To the person asking if 9:30 Club tix are on sale. Yes They are $15 + service charge. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 10 Jun 1997 10:22:53 -0400 (EDT) From: Psycho Magnet first, lay off michale! He is just some kid who got REALLY lucky and got to be the singer of the misfits. If it was you, wouldn't you have done the same thing? I'm sure he had heard of them too, he's from fucking north jersey and if you are from north jersey when you are born they send you home from the hospital with a copy of earth ad. Besides at least he's good. I'd rather have someone who didn't know anything about the misfits than some suck. Come on the new singer could be SAL, just think about that. >So don't get all smart assed with me, it was just a >fucking suggestion. I can get smart assed whenever I want, for whatever reason I want and I will. American psycho is from the book, you must have missed those 40 or 50 bibles! It is pretty gruesome, but I don't think it's too hard to get. I got mine at Borders, and if they don't have it (or most other places for that matter) you can order it. Leah ps--The misfits wasn't a horror movie, and I don't think marilyn monroe was ever in one. But she was in a sort of suspense thriller called "don't bother to knock", which is worth seeing. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 10 Jun 1997 09:23:21 -0400 From: ssp113@psu.edu (Scott Perry) Hello all, It is I, Scott Perry, I am back from England. I enjoyed myself very much thank you. Now to the Misfits related news. I got the new album two days before I left on the day it came out (which was fortunate because Jerry told me that the album wasn't comming out over there until May 27, but I'll get to that). I think it is great. Sure it's not the Misfits of old. It's basically heavy metal in the vein (ha) of Iron Maiden or motor head. That's fine by me, I'm a metal fan anyway, I got into the misfits through Danzig. Fantastic. There are a couple of songs on the album that are only okay, but songs like the shining, hate the living and the haunting are great. I think Jerry and Co. kicked ass. Second point. I went to see the misfits in England while I was there. I saw them at Leeds. I would like to thank all the fiends that made my trip there great. I got to go back stage and talk with the band before the show. They were all very nice and very patient and answered all of our questions. I guess that since the album was not due out til later that month that I was one of the only people there who had heard it so Jerry was very interested in getting my reaction to it. Anyway the show was great, not as good as when I saw them in state college last october but still one of the best concerts I've been to. After being over there I realize what a shitty time fiends in England have, getting there hands on stuff. Probably half the stores I went into didn't have a listing for Danzig even, and I went into a lot of stores. I don't think I saw a Samhain CD the whole time I was over there and only two or three stores I went into had any Misfits CDs besides the two collections. Most people there had never heard of the Misfits or Danzig even. The only good thing was that most music stores carried vinyl, which wasn't even very good for me since I don't really collect it. I ran into a fiend in a heavy metal club while I was in Nottingham, literally. We were both moshing and I ran right into him. I was wearing my glow in the dark skull and he was wearing a legacy of brutality shirt. He looked at it unbelievingly, it was pretty funny, then he gave me a big hug, and we tried to talk but it was too loud. Talk about unity. Anyway if that guy is on the bible, cheers dude.

Pissed me off, but hell anybody buying vinyl these days is a collector & doesn't need to play their records repeatedly anyhow eh? The fact that I've now heard of 3 accounts of this suggests it is a mere pressing error... records are not individually carved but stamped from master plates. In general commercial production, these master plates themselves are usually second-generation copies from "mothers," records plated from the original master plates which are copied for mass-production.

'TAB' is just a word to represent transcribed music in an ASCII format. back in the day, Robert and I started figuring out Misfits and Danzig songs. (actually, Robert taught me how to play bass.) Robert typed up the original Misfits TAB files, using just letters for the chords. "A E F# D" is much easier to read than having 8 A chords and 8 E chords and 8 F# chords and 8 D chords all tabbed out. it was written with the notion that fiends would reference the TAB while listening to the albums and figure out the rhythm themselves. we're not gonna spoonfeed the TAB to newbies... it's called a learning experience. we went for simplicity and accuracy, not a professional publication-ready document. i did the same with the first Samhain TAB files. and please, anyone who hasn't already done so, read the TAB primer and the TAB guide from OLGA. the links are in the lower left side of the guitar TAB page. the "guitar/longtab" directory contains Misfits songs that were tabbed out in the longer format.

Sunday 6/8/97 I went to Ozzfest '97 (great show) and they were giving out Postcards for a free double live CD commemorating Ozzfest '97. All you need to do is send in the postcard with $3.95 shipping and handling. How does this pertain to the Misfits? Well, I don't know if anyone's mentioned this already but they are listed as among the 25+ bands who appear on the CD. I don't know why the Misfits would be on there since they took no part in Ozzfest '97, but the card says so. I guess I'll find out for sure as soon as mine arrives. If anyone goes to Ozzfest, grab one of these cards because in addition to the Misfits there are some great bands on there.

(that was ordering by phone. the service charge is a little cheaper if you buy from an outlet, and it's always cheapest at the door.) glad to see them hit 9:30. last time around they played Capitol Ballroom, and i think i remember hearing that was because 9:30 didn't think they'd draw enough of a crowd. apparently they changed their mind. if you indulge in herb, be mighty careful if you choose to do so in the club. some staff ignore it, but a few will toss you with the quickness. and they may even go as far as to call an off-duty cop (must be someone's retarded cousin) to show up in full gear (minus badge, including gun, driving a beat up red Jeep Cherokee with rust holes) to pitifully attempt to scare you. just politely ask for his badge number and he'll quickly lose interest. if you happen to have a video camera, film his license plate and watch the tires squeal. believe it or not, this actually happened. no disrespect meant to 9:30. this isn't amsterdam, and i'm quite sure they could get in deep shit for turning a blind eye. but this securi-nazi went a little far. i guess i should've acted a little more impressed (or maybe intimidated) by his steroid laden pecks, his pretty "STAFF" shirt, and the 473 laminates hanging from where you'd usually find a neck. apologies for clogging bible space with that warning/rant. just trying to save someone some hassle.

They will not actually be chatting online, but SonicNet may be taking questions from online users - I'm not sure, and the band has no idea either. Check out http://www.sonicnet.com/sonicore/chat for more info. UPCOMING SINGLE =============== Geffen will be releasing a "Dig Up Her Bones" / "Hate The Living" CD/7" single sometime in the next few months. The band will be filming a low budget video for music video networks in early July. FIEND CLUB SKULLS CONTEST ========================= The band will be judging the skulls sent in for the contest described in the "Bleeder's Diegest" newsletter in the next few weeks, so if you plan to enter, do so NOW. The winner will be mailed a Misfits skateboard, and the skull will be in the next issue of the newsletter. FIEND CLUB HORROR SERIES ======================== Several of you have asked me about this from time to time. The band completed three video tapes of horror movies and interviews about a year ago, and have sent them to all the major TV (cable or otherwise) networks. If they're not picked up by any networks, they may eventually be sold through the Fiend Club: Volume 1: "Horror Hotel" with Roger Corman interview Volume 2: "Hideous Sun Demon" with Basil Gogos Volume 3: "Crawling Eye" with Ben Chapman interview WEB PAGE ======== The Misfits web page has officially moved to http://misfits.plan-9.com thanks to Sal M. If you have a web page, PLEASE UPDATE your links. The old links no longer work. Also, if you have copies of any of the files on the page, you should download the updated versions. By the way, I am well aware of the pictures problem and should have that fixed by the end of this week. WEB PAGE GUITAR TAB =================== Along with all the other files that have been moved to the new web page (including the updated discographies, lyrics, etc) the guitar tab has undergone a lot of changes lately. If you have corrections, comments, etc, please email them to tab@plan-9.com - the new guitar tab address. Keep in mind that this is not guitar tab as you will find it in a guitar magazine. Please read the the guitar primers that are linked to from the guitar page. They are there to help you. Also, feel free to suggest any corrections - if you would like to be sent updates of the tab as they are made, please email tab@plan-9.com and our guitar man Ryq will add you to the list. OTHER STUFF =========== If anyone has any information on the "Black X-mas" Misfits bootleg CD, please email me (fiend@plan-9.com). NOTHINGBUTNET ============= Someone on this mailing list is inadvertently forwarding their mail to either bob@nothingbutnet.com or bmanning@nothingbutnet.com - if you are this person, please email me ASAP because you are causing some problems for someone who is NOT on this mailing list. FIEND CLUB MERCHANDISE ====================== The band has caught up with the Fiend Club orders they received while overseas. Keep in mind that the band will be touring until September, so any orders sent between then and now will probably be delayed. Next, please DO NOT call the (201) 746-3700 phone number listed for Sabre Inc. on various merchandise flyers. This is a typo! The correct number is (201) 764-3700. However, there's absolutely no reason to call Sabre, as you can order merchandise directly from them.

If you don't like it you should TRY to listen to it. I didn't like it at first, but it grew on me. Yeah of course it isn't Danzig, but Graves is a good singer. You can also see that Jerry and Doyle can play much better now. And about the NewFits sounding like Kryst The Conqueror? Well, I'll just say that I have both CD's, and Kryst The Conqueror doesn't sound like the NewFits at all. In fact, if anybody out there is interested in the Kryst The Conqueror CD...E-Mail me, maybe we can work out a trade or something. I know this is old, but the Danzig CD blackacidevil" is also good. Yeah you may want to call it "Nine Inch Danzig" but it's a good CD. Anyway...I sent for the SQUiRT magazines, I can't wait to get them. I'm going to be receiving issues 1 and 2. I would like to subscribe to it actually. Oh yeah, if there are any people out there that are super punk headz (and i'm sure there are) send for this catalog, it costs a buck but it's worth it.

This is not the case. Dill Records put out a compilation of non- traditional ska bands that usually sound more like hardcore with horns. Somebody's lawyers (I _think_ it was the folks behind "Godzilla") had a problem with the album and made him change all the artwork. I don't know. You can read the liner notes on the second press for all the gory details. I always liked "Weevilive" more in terms of ripped-off Misfits art... --Erik Cheapskate phgj92b@prodigy.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 11 Jun 1997 13:28:50 -0400 (EDT) From: Misfit4798@aol.com Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #344 Hey fiends whats up!

It's a bunch of ska bands doing their own songs. There was a few pressings of it. The first one had to have the covers repressed because it had the misfits logo on it and Godzilla on the back. Some legal guy for the misfits called the guy that made the CD (Bruce Lee, No not the karate guy), and told him to stop using the logo. The legal guy for Godzilla also told him to stop using Godzilla. Since then, there has been two more pressings. ( I think, unless there is one more) I know one of them has a skeleton ( kinda like the crimson ghost ) on the front with a little cartoon bubble saying "Misfits Of Ska". The reason that Bruce Lee used the name "Misfits" in the title is because of the punk signifigance and also because the bands on the albulm were not Traditional Ska Bands, but were the sound of Ska mixed with other music such as Hardcore & punk. The first misfits of ska has 13-15 songs on it I think. There is also Misfits of Ska 2, which has 30 bands like Absence & The Skolars. If you ever see it, get it, unless you hate ska.

Originally the Misfits on it was The FMOF lettering and it had the Legacy CG on the cd and Frankenstein, the Bride and Nosferatu on the cover.

Not a cover album. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 11 Jun 1997 16:33:28 -0400 From: birkwood@ma.ultranet.com (Birkwood Design) Subject: A Few Points To Be Made Firstly, I freely admit I was hipped to the Misfits via Metallica's cover of "Last Caress/Green Hell"--does this make me a trendy fan? I think not. I bought said EP ("Garage Days Re-Re-Visited") when it came out about ten years ago, and it made me go out and buy "Earth A.D." (the only Misfits release I could find at the time). I didn't know what to make of it at first, then about a year later I bought "Walk Among Us" on a whim and it's been downhill from there since then! The point of this bit is simple; just because the source is different doesn't give so-called "true" fans, who often hurt bands more than help them via their often being terribly closed-minded, the right to bag on newcomers to "Das Scene". Don't get me wrong, I'm not overfond of mallrat "punks" who want to be individual just like everyone else, but neither am I thrilled with closed-minded fools who think that they're the only fans that matter for whatever reason(s) they may have. It's people from both those camps who give fans period a bad name, so let's not be too eager to point fingers, shall we? In short, anyone who thinks "American Psycho" is a sellout trendy pop or metal LP needs to have their heads examined! Just because it's being distributed by a major and happens to have professional-quality production only means that A> It will have distribution to those who need it most (the mallrats who are clueless about the real deal), and B> It sounds even meaner, darker, and heavier than before! And Michale Graves has a distinctive and forceful vocal presence and style that well and truly sets him apart from his famous predecessor. He can both snarl and sing equally well--you'd never know he's what, 22 now? The songs are excellent, memorable, catchy, and altogether this LP tramples all over its competition with hobnailed boots! 'Nuff said. Sorry to take up so much space, Mark, but I felt this had to be said! BTW, all fiends who haven't met the guys yet, it is indeed true that they are very approachable and down-to-earth, very fan-oriented, especially Jerry, who patiently humoured my pumping him with questions about his basses and rig and acting quite the silly fanboy (something I normally never do!!!) last year at the Middle East Downstairs (very happening club in Cambridge, Mass.).

Addicted To Noise's Laura Lee Reports: Don't let the Misfits' bizarre appearance fool you, these are men with purpose, and the first item on today's agenda-- world domination. The New Jersey four piece, decked out in skulls and leather, have been pumping out their brand of psycho horror-core since modern-day shock rockers Marilyn Mason were in diapers. Punk fueled and hook heavy, tracks off their new album American Psycho (Geffen) include titles such as "Speak Of The Devil," "From Hell They Came" and "Don't Open 'Til Doomsday." "We get up every morning and lift weights, you know, and that's fun and then we get down and build our own guitars," said Jerry Only, frontman/bassist for the Misfits and brother of Misfits guitarist, Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein. "And we demanded with this release that we get some bubble gum trading cards put out to accompany the album." Over the past couple of years, the Misfits were honored by an offer from the metal band Anthrax to open for them and recently they allowed themselves to be cajoled into an opening spot on Megadeth's summer tour. In addition to the Megadeth stadium tour, the Misfits are headlining their own club tour of the U.S. "The Misfits are as American as apple pie," Only said. "And the only people who don't like the music are the ones we have to beat up." What better reason to make sure you don't miss them when they burn up your town this summer.

Am i wrong?? The book American Psycho was released in 1991/1992 by Brett Easton Ellis (who also wrote Less Tan Zero") and was at the time nearly banned in the US for it's graphic descriptions of violent acts done to primarily females. Feminist groups loobied heavily against any publisher who publicly considered publishing the book. Ellis and his agent cried 1st amendment free speech, and a deal was quickly reached with Vintage Books (a division of some larger publisher, maybe Penguin?) and the book was released. The only reason I know is because I was taking an editing course in college at the time, and at the time felt strongly that the book shouldn't be banned at all. Then I read it, it was okay - kinda boring, and undoubtedly misogynistic. It got kind of gross, but not really, there's worse out there by far. Anyway it was a bestseller for awhile, then fizzled out. Ellis' books go into long, lengthy, boring (like this e-mail, right?) discussions about what the characters are wearing and shit like that.... not my cup.

Fiends- A while ago while everyone was on the topic of "cock rock" somebody criticized the misfits as a "cock rock" band dressed punk. Well, what exactly defines "cock rock"? what ONE aspect of a performer or band makes him/them fit into that particular genre? Just lend your inagination to this consideration: Let us suppose that Motely Crue didn't wear make up or tight leather pants. For that matter let's suppose that they don't use hair spray or act goofy and arrogant off stage. would they still be "cock rock" just because of their sound? or is it more a matter of what they LOOK like than how they sound. Let's go even further with this, suppose that while they sound the same (Pop Metal?), they choose different subject matter, like wildlife conservation. are they still "cock rock"? again, imagine this (as it's not bloody likely to happen): Minor Threat and the Exploited start dressing in drag and singing about girls all the time. their sound is still "Hardcore" or "Punk" but they look like Motely Crue and sing about the same stuff. Are they "cock rock"? well, in either case I think it's safe to say that the Misfits are not and will never be "cock rock" I simply don't think given the subject matter of misfits material and the appearance of the Misfits themselves, that you could realistically consider them to be a "cock rock band" "He doesn't want anything ... he's insane." -Frank Black M i l l e n n i u M ________________________________ User ID: M.A. Correz Key fingerprint =0F 4D EC F8 25 C6 36 FE 39 59 DC BC 76 58 3E 59 ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 13 Jun 1997 17:29:12 -0400 From: Wolfsblood Subject: Violent World, Collection II Greetings fiends and fiendes's. I have searched Marks page, and Caroline Records home page for the number of Violent World vinyls pressed, but had no luck. I just recently came across a green marble copy, and wanted to know what other colors there were, and how many were pressed. Also, I think I've figured out why so many of you didn't like it. It's more metal than punk, which suits me fine, since I'm a big metal fan. Also some of the covers were very different than the originals. This may have pissed some people off if they view the Misfits, and their music as "sacred". To me, the versions were quite well done, and I enjoyed hearing different versions of some of my favorite songs. Also, what are the vinyl copies worth? Next question. Collection II on green vinyl. I picked one up at a record con for $12.00. Is that a normal price for that record, or did I get a good deal? I was certainly willing to pay that, but thought it would be more expensive. Also, how many of those were pressed, and what other colors, if any, was it pressed on? Stay Sick!

Subject: Online Bootleg/Interview Archive Date: Sat, 14 Jun 1997 01:59:33 -0400 (EDT) I am interested in starting up an Archive that would be dedicated to misfits interviews and bootlegs. I have a gig or so i could allocate for this and a fast net connection to my machine, and it's up 24/7, i take it down sometimes for sytem maintence but that's about it. If anyone else is interested in contributing to a project like this, i'd like to hear from you. The things i could use most, the actual material, pulled off of tapes or whatever and encoded in to say mp3's, possibley real audio. that's about all -diakka ------------------------------ From: Misfit4798@aol.com Date: Thu, 12 Jun 1997 01:44:22 -0400 (EDT) Subject: A great Idea Alright this is a post every fiend must read! Now bear with me on this one, cause this is a radical idea. Ok, many of us on this list are familiar with Metallica in some form or another. Well believe it or not their fans came up with a great idea, that I think the truely devoted fiends should adopt. Now as far as I know, back in Metallica's early days, their truely devoted legion of fans were known as the Metallikatz. These "elite" fans were given some sort of special treatment by the band, whether it be a special fan club only t-shirt or a private meet and greet the band. Now in 1997 the metallica fan club is not the same. You have to be a member of another international "Metallica Club" to get those preferential t-shirts and meet and greet the band experiences. When I caught Metallica last month at the USAir arena, before the show, in one of the conference rooms Metallica was having a meet and greet with only about 20 or so fans. Alright here's my point, I think either the Misfits Bible, or the Fiend club ought to start something like this with the Misfits. That is if the Misfits would go along with it. Now i know the Misfits aren't selling out arena's, and the turn out wouldn't be nearly as good as a Metallica's, but I think it's worth a try. Hell, look at the talent we have here already. A misfits tribute 7", a misfits tribute cassette, and those MBible t-shirts. With the right organization, and drive, this could really work. Just off the top of my head if we had one of these meet and greet's in the DC area I know tons of you that would be there (Too many to try to list). I'm not trying to say that we all deserve preferential treatment because we are blessed enough to have a computer, but we do deserve it because we buy everything with the word Misfits on it. Like I said this is just an idea, and would have to have all the bugs worked out. Like where to have these, at every city and show, who to invite, how do the misfits feel about it, etc. I mean we don't want to do one of these in a city where 2 fiends show up. Do we? I'd love to hear everybodies feelings on this one. On a side note. I was at OzzFest '97 at the Nissan Pav. Black Sabbath fuckin' ruled. But if you check out www.ozzfest.com it lists "Shining" as the song on the 2CD Best buy set. Whether it is live or not I don't know. -Later Drew ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 13 Jun 1997 16:59:08 -0300 From: martyn Subject: Introduction Hi!,my name is Martyn Gonzalez and I`m from Argentina.I would like to connect with you.

They are chanting "spiritus, incubus, nominae, daemona" (although I am unsure about the last two). According to Cassell's latin-english dictionary, these are the *loose* translations: spiritus: spirit, ghost, or soul incubus: a male demon that has sexual intercourse with sleeping women nominae: invocations (oaths or paryers taken in the name of someone or something) daemona: demons, demon-like "Possession" appears to be the only song from DANZIG that was never performed live. Too bad; it's one of the best songs on that album. -Brett ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 12 Jun 1997 14:51:52 -0400 From: Zack Kurland Subject: Misfits Chat On Sonicnet Friday, June 20, 7:00PM - It Came From the 80's Presents: THE MISFITS - Punk legends and New Jersey natives the Misfits have risen from their graves to talk to you about "American Psycho" and their current tour hitting a town near you Check out http://www.sonicnet.com/sonicore/chat for more info.

The tickets are 13 dollars and i believe have already went on sale. Also, I know this is kinda late, but for that "what ya thought Glenn sounded like he was sayin" game type deal i have a couple i thought i could add: On SpookCity usa, it sounds like he says, "Folic acid in the middle of the roadway" instead of "poltergeists in the middle...." And on Horror Business me and a friend used to debate if it said, "i'll put a night fright in you", or , "...a knife right in you" which is how it's posted in the lyric books. I don't know if anyway else has heard it, but this band called the "Killer Barbies" (i think they're Spanish) has a cover of "Skulls" on one of they're cd's. The lyrics are pretty messed up.

Right on!!! What HE said!!! Oh, I'd also like to say that the most relevant criticism I've heard about AP and the Misfits in general is that AP is a fun album to listen to, whereas any thing Danzig has done since he was a Misfit is pretentious, dull, and NOT fun. I agree wid that. I also think that Hate the Living, Love the Dead is TRUE Misfits and if I ever get to see them live and if they play that song, I will go apeshit berzerk, pogo like mad, thrash around, and poop my pants in happy bliss. And as far as what movies inspired songs on AP, I think Blacklight reminds me a lot of Nightbreed/Cabal...anyone else think so? ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 15 Jun 1997 23:58:46 -0700 From: ahren Subject: I would've never wrote this much without da magic of caffeine OK,OK, I've had it. Everyone who doesn't like the "new" Misfits, and keeps putting up posts about how they hate the "Newfits", and how much better the "Oldfits" were, go make your OWN mailing list. Then, go write email about how much you hate Graves or Chud or American Psycho, and post it THERE. That way, I don't have to read it! Neither will anyone else, for that matter. Allrighty, I know that the posts here aren't always 100% serious, and that I shouldn't take anyones post too much to heart, but I'm getting really sick of hearing how much better the old Misfits were. We had close to 10 years to wax nostalgic about the Misfits. But now they're back. They're not the exact same as they were before. The time to dredge up old memories is gone. They are right here, right now! So please, feel free to criticise the Misfits for whatever fault you find. But go make that new mailing list I was talking about if you want to compare them with the '70's-'80's Misfits. Know what I think? I think that the Misfits, today, are better than the old Misfits. My only critical observation is this. Remember those lists of songs that Mark would post (that listed the songs on AP, and who wrote them)before AP came out? I happen to like the songs that Jerry wrote less than I like the songs that the other guys wrote. Maybe its that Kryst the Conqueror thing. I don't know. But I'll still take 1 American Psycho rather than 1000 Earth AD's or 1000 Walk Among Us's. What I would love to see is a second CD of new stuff, and a live CD that isn't a non-produced piece of garbage like Evillive. Yeah, it's a fun CD to listen to, but... One more thing-I'll bet this going to get you all going on the sellout vs. DIY thing again, but I had a friggin' brainstorm the other day. Someone said that the picture of the guys in coffins on the"Shocking Return" flyer would have made a better cover for AP. I don't really have an opinion on that, but since AP already has a cover, wouldn't make an excellent picture...for the cover of the...home video??? I dare you to say you WOULDN"T like to see a professionally produced video tape of the world's best band taking no prisoners,live. It would even be better if they put old songs on there too. I'm just waiting for somebody to say "Man, the old Misfits would never do that, they would blah,blah,blah..." Then I'm going to have to remind them that you're supposed to harp on about the old Misfits SOMEWHERE ELSE!!! ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 15 Jun 1997 10:16:30 -0700 (PDT) From: Daniel Herrmann Subject: Bad Trader I hate to do this, but this guy screwed me in a trade.

Since our break-up in 1983, Doyle and I have been experimenting with our own designs on guitars, equipment, and of course music. We feel confident that our breakthroughs in these areas have given us a band not of the 80's but a force that will take the 90's by storm. We have the best band that has ever walked gods good earth. This band is to emerge in 1989 and the Doyle fanclub is just a way to let the old Misfits fans know that we are back. We will have a Jerry Only poster out before Christmas and will immediatly send you one. We have sent along a sheet for the names and addresses of your employees, which we will send them a free membership package. we will keep you posted on our merchandise and new releases, but you must send in your name and address.!!

What's up for bids you ask: 1) I Hear Ya - CD comp, still sealed 2) Huckem - CD promo from Geffen Records 3) American Psycho - CD - advanced promo plus there are a couple non auction items if you are interested in making an offer just to outright buy these records off Chris. 1) Metallica - self titled 12" - 2 x records. 2) Biohazard - promo 12" on orange vinyl 3) Pixies - promo 12" send bids and offer to tes777@bridge.net by June 20. To all the fiends who are dying to buy real vinyl, that guy who just posted the White three hits for sale has a decent price. I doubt that any time soon you would find one for what i paid, but from the mouth of Glenn himself, the record is suposed to go for $175 - 200 in CA. Plus you can going running around saying you paid $138 ;) for your record. well check out fridays bible for the record convention listing for this weekend and some more Misfits 101.

Also in Jaguar G-d #6 are some drawings from the possible animation of Satanika. It has that Go Nagai look with more details, though that could mean nothing once it's animated. Also there is *talk* of a Death Dealer and or possible Jaguar G-d movie, ie live action. Though you never know what Glenn will do or if he can find the people for producing either movie. Though if you are into the comics, the art in both issues is sensational. being that Liam Sharp did the art for both. well that is it for now. till friday.

TIMES SQUARE, CHYNA, FLATUS and SQUIGGY at the FRANKLIN AMERICAN LEGION HALL, in Franklin, NJ (near Action Park). Someone asked about THE INDEPENDENTS: They're a band from Florence, SC. Their singer, EVIL PRESLEY, was Jerry's first choice for the new MISFITS - but turned down all offers. These guys are truly THE MISFITS OF SKA. If THE MISFITS were a SKA band, they would sound like these guys. They have at least 2 Cd's out, and a few 45's - including a great cover of MOTHER. They're in the studio working on a new CD . . . with Daniel Rey producing, and their manager is none other than Joey Ramone. If you get a chance to check them out, don't miss it.

One song into a downright terrifying set, our less-than-tan singer spits upon his bare chest while bassist stage left, a young Danzig reincarnate, knocks three full beers from the riser while stomping like Satan's spawn atop a graveyard of saints. All present quietly watched the event unfold, clapping politely so as not to earn 138's ire and wake up next to a severed ram's head. -- by the way, thanks to everyone who was cool to us when we opened for Youth Brigade and Screw 32 in Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo.

I don't know if anyone has already mentioned this but In the movie men in black, which I think is comming out this friday, their is a scene where the bad alien wants to get a hotel room or something and the the clerk behind the counter who comes out to help him is wearing the misfits shirt with the giant crimson ghost face on the front. I know this because I saw a show on HBO that was sort of a "how-it-was- made" type-thing and they showed that scene. I don't remember the name of the guy who directs it. As far as the debate about the lyrics on Crimson Ghost and Mars Attacks goes: Yes the lyric are cheesy. Does that mean that they are bad? Mars Attacks was a pretty cheesy movie (I know the song wasn't about the movie but still) I think the whole idea of Mars Attacks is to be funny in a stupid way. If the lyrics add to that then they are doing a pretty good job.

Last year almost entirely by themselves (with minor help from Antrax) they completely sold out the Fillmore and there were even about 200 people outside the venue who were trying without luck to get tickets to the show. Instead of giving more people a chance to see the complete show, they are playing a place not too much larger than the Fillmore, but they'll only be able to give the opening act 50 minute set, and they'll only be able to use the front of the stage. The only way they can remedy this situation is if they play a headlining show after the Megadeth tour, but I bet they won't come back to San Francisco afterwards so we're going to be screwed. --Steve ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Jun 1997 13:13:44 -0400 From: Ryan Stephens Subject: American Psycho Hey fiends I haven't posted in a while and this here is my two cents on AP, overall I rate it a good albulm and the new sound is excellent. First off as muscians they are far more accomplished than they were back in the late seventies/early eighties and the sound they produce is tighter.

Skid Row was cock rock. hmmm... i can see it now... a guitar solo on the next album. my guess is, they didn't want to put it on the first and alienate the fans expecting the old style stuff. they'll wait til the second album to slip in a little solo. next thing you know, riffs and solos abound on a Misfits album. and they'll chalk it up as "we wanted to expand/experiment". new Crue and Misfits/Kryst album in the same year? cock rock has returned. besides, i love the Misfits/Kryst album. =) ryq http://misfits.plan-9.com/guitar.html ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 18 Jun 1997 18:01:10 -0400 From: J Subject: I have a wrapped copy of Damaged by Black Flag for sale.

Hey, all you people who think that the NEW Motley Crue isn't as good as the OLD Motley Crue, go start your own list! *l* I can't wait until the Misfits video comes out, so that everyone who bitches about the Misfits selling out will spontaneously combust. I, for one, fully support their Greedy Whore-Mongering, and I beleive they should expand their money-making ventures to Lunchboxes, Tube Socks and Soft Core Pornos. Maybe plaster molds of their dicks for the feamale (hey, and some of the male) fans on the list... you know, marketed as "9 Inches from Outer Space." HOW BOBBY STEELE *REALLY* LOST HIS TOE It was after a show the Misfits had opening for Def Leppard,a nd the gig wasn't going to good. Glenn had just beaten up the drummer, I even heard a rumor that he ripped his arm off and started beating him with it! Anyway, Pamela Lee was at the bar, and Jerry and Doyle chased her down an alley while Erie Von, the rythm bass player at the time, tok pictures. Glenn wrote a song about it called "In the Doorways" and his it in his ass with his father gold watch while he was in prison for digging up corpses. Anyway, Bobby didn't think this was very cool, and he said so. So at the next show, Glenn bit off his toe during "We Are 138", and Bobby screamed and screamed. They released this on tape but listed the background vox as Henry Rollins because Glenn owed him money for some comic books. Bobby sued Glenn and succefully won the name Misfits of Ska, but after he found out this was a copyright infringment on Godzilla, he changed the name of his band to the Undead.

It's time for me to set up that doctor's appointment. Responses: A) It will cost more, that's one thing. I never pay more than $10 for a domestic CD, and never more than $12 for a foreign one. And paying those high prices still means I'm getting ripped off. You know how cheap they are to make, right? Distributing to those who need it most, well, that's a complicated question. Nobody NEEDS it most, but if you're talking about convienience to people who don't care enough to actually go out and look for it, I disagree. It's not just being distributed by a major, for the record, it's out on one of the most major majors there is. B) Meaner/darker/heavier = boring buzz words. It's cock rock. Perhaps it's time to distinguish what is what. The metal that was popular during the 80's and is remembered by most is the metal of guys like Poison, Ratt, Winger, Twisted Sister, Megadeath, and other wimps with long hair who have the stupidest band names since Back From the Grave. They played really poppy music with a supposed "hard edge" that people over 60 didn't like, had long hair, rose tattoos, and really repulsive tight fitting clothing. I call it cock rock because that's what it is...wimpy rock by a bunch of stupid cocks. Metal was originally really fast and noisy. When the term "metal" was dubbed to the wuss bands by MTV and other such evils to pin a convienient buzzword on the cock rock genre, the other bands were smart enough to realize they didn't want to be called metal anymore. Bands like Repulsion, Napalm Death, Carcass, SxOxBx, Larm, Fear of God, Terrorizer, Bolt Thrower, Ripcord, Stark Raving Mad, and other truly amazing acts took the equally stupid, but more fun to say, buzzwords of "thrash" and "grind", still used today. The Misfits did a piss-poor job of thrash on one of their albums, which I'm sure we all know about. Really horrid job, but it's a basic blueprint for those of you who are afraid to put Symphonies of Sickness anywhere near your immeadiate persona. So when you say metal, it's implied you mean cock rock, or wimpy rock sometimes with death lyrics. There is black metal, and "death metal" (a term generally used to describe thrash and grind by idiots who don't know better)...black metal is more of the originally metallic sound with some stupid lyrics, solos, and lots of oomph to it. There are a few good slow black metal bands (Dark Throne) but in general the genre sucks. I won't bother trying to describe the four hundred and nineteen or so genres for today's music, because I'm quite sure you get the point. Rock on.

D Generation was ok. When Misfits came on, they had a screen where they played parts of old horror/sci fi movies (and even a couple new ones) and they played Halloween 2 in the background. Then the screen was lifted and the misfits were on stage then they played Abominable Dr. Phibes into American Psycho. I'm terrible at remembering setlists, but they played a good mix of everything, they played for a while, i don't remember how long, but it was for a while. The last song they played was Die Die my Darling. They said that the trocadero was to be their home turf from now on. I was also amazed when they announced that S.O.D. was coming to philly, when did they get back together??? i heard they were at the milwaukee metal fest but i thought that was just a one time thing that's it for now -ins@ne ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Jun 1997 01:00:54 -0500 From: "Tammy S."

After almost a 2 year delay, the STATIC AGE album will be out on July 15th. In case you've been on another planet, STATIC AGE was supposed to be the Misfits first album, recorded in early 1978. 14 of the 17 songs recorded during the session were mixed for release. Those 14 songs were included as CD 4 of the MISFITS BOX SET. This separate release (luckily for us) also includes the 3 other tracks recorded during the session which were never released. The album sounds great! This is the first real lineup of the band (Glenn, Jerry, Franche', Mr. Jim) playing the band's best 17 songs ever and it sounds the way it should, unlike the horribly butchered, overdubbed versions we were stuck with on the LEGACY OF BRUTALITY compilation. The new mix of "She" sounds much more powerful, and "Spinal Remains" sounds like a completely different song - the guitar is razor sharp and Glenn's vocals are finally audible. The 17th song, "In The Doorway" is perhaps one of the most unique Misfits songs ever, and definitely one of my favorites. The lyrics have nothing to do with the usual gruesome topics that Glenn covered, and the vocals are sung gently so that you get the full range of Glenn's voice. The closest thing I can compare it to is the way he sings "Anything" off of Danzig III, or maybe "Last Caress" slowed down. The album layout is great. Because it was recorded and planned for release long before the Misfits began using the Crimson Ghost or their monster lettering logo, the album features only the original "spraypaint" logo. Tom B went out of his way to include scans of interesting memorabilia (courtesy of Steve Zing) and some nice pictures. The booklet also features 2 pages of liner notes - one set by Tom and another by the original engineer of the session, Dave Achelis. I can't explain how great this album is. For anyone who has been disappointed with past releases, this album is a magic wand that will make everything better, full of great music and other surprises. For vinyl collectors out there, the album will be pressed in limited quantities on red, yellow, and purple vinyl, as well as black. The official Caroline press release follows: NEWS FROM CAROLINE RECORDS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Caroline Records is releasing STATIC AGE, the debut album from The Misfits, one of the top cult punk/metal crossover bands of all time. The release of STATIC AGE, featuring the original Misfits line-up with Glenn Danzig on vocals, is the first time that the debut album session tracks have been made available. Despite having broken up in 1984, interest in the Misfits has never been stronger. White Zombie's Rob Zombie has called the band a major influence on his music and Guns 'n Roses and Metallica have both covered tracks that appear on STATIC AGE ("Attitude" and "Last Caress" respectively). The release of the album also follows on the heels of VIOLENT WORLD - A TRIBUTE TO THE MISFITS featuring Pennywise, Goldfinger, NOFX, Sick Of It All, Prong, Therapy? and others. STATIC AGE was originally recorded in January and February of 1978, as part of a settlement with Mercury Records. At the time both The Misfits and Mercury Records had been using the name Blank Records, so in a deal which would allow Mercury exclusive use of the "blank" name, The Misfits were alloted 30 hours of "graveyard shift" recording time. While 17 tracks were recorded for these sessions, only 14 were originally set for release. Due to the lack of interest from the record companies, The Misfits approached, STATIC AGE did not see the light of day until its inclusion in The Misfits Box Set, in 1996. Now this debut album is being made available as a stand alone release with all 17 tracks from these sessions included for the first time ever. Of the three newly discovered tracks, "She" and "Spinal Remains" have only been available in altered, over-dubbed form on the LEGACY OF BRUTALITY. This is the first time they appear as originally intended. The third track, "In The Doorway" is the real find. Even the band had forgotten about its existence as time constraints had prevented it from even reaching the mixing stage. Now this rarest of all Misfits tracks is finally being released as part of this complete STATIC AGE album package. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 24 Jun 1997 16:11:25 -0400 From: Mark Kennedy Subject: lost pictures The following photos are currently unavailable due to corruption.

I'm eagerly anticipating the post that says AP is like Napalm Death. Then I'll fall off my chair. 2) Better production does not equal metal. It simply means better production. 3) Lemme get this straight....AP is cock-rock because the music is simple and the titles are corny? Hmm....doesn't sound all that much different from the old stuff. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought the whole point was to be as cornball as the B-movies that influenced them. If you honestly think the Misfits' goal is to be as evil as possible, you missed the joke. 4) Does anybody know how long of a set the Misfits will get opening for Megadeth? I'd hate to spend a lot of cash on a half-hour set. Okay, enough psycho-babble. Take care.

Date: Fri, 20 Jun 1997 12:36:34 -0400 Last year I saw the Misfits nine times. During these shows it was hard = for me to criticize Michael's singing because I was just happy they were = back together and that I was actually seeing them live (Something I = thought for years would never, ever happen). Now that the thrill of = seeing them has worn off I am now able to be more analytical and = unbiased in determining how they sound, especially Michael. First off, I have no problem with Michael and I think Ameican Psycho is = pretty good. Sure it didn't live up to Glenn's Misfits but did anyone = actually think it would? Well, last night (Thursday) I saw the first stop of the American Psycho = tour in Philly, PA at the Trocadero. This was the third time I've seen = them there and have always said that of all the places I have seen the = Misfits, this place was my favorite. Anyway, they sucked! Let me be = more specific, Michael sucked. He has totally turned into a rock star. = I think on both the East Cost and Resurrection tours he was actually = trying hard to sound good to attempt to prove himself to the fiends. = With a new record out, he doesn't have to live up to any previous = standards though (AKA, Glenn). Well, it shows. He only sings at most = 50% of the time. The other 50% he just jumps around like a monkey. = When he does get around to singing, he is purposely out of step, = especially in the chorus. The worst is during "Mommy" he actually = stopped right at the part before "Mommy, Can I Go Out And Kill Tonight?" = to tell everyone to go nuts, but he just kept going on and on (like at = least 30 seconds. By the time he sang it the previously crazy audience = was just standing there. The way he acted can not be easily summed up. I love the Misfits and I = like Michael but if this show is any indication as to the direction they = are headed then it is really no surprise they are opening up for = Megadeath. If you don't believe me, just wait until they come back to = your town! Some cool things about the show: It was recorded for a video, I guess = for MTV. My guess is it was for the Shinning becasue during that song = there was a camera guy on stage. Also before the show, they played a = 10-minute movie that was just clips from various movies. They played it = to the song Halloween II. Pretty cool. Similar to the Halloween show = there last year.

I ordered a couple from CD Now, since there's no way to get vinyl otherwise, and only opened one copy. I guess they're both black, since they have the same appearance and stickers. Does the CD have an extra hidden song? What's with the poster? Isn't the vinyl supposed to have the poster, not the other way around? Whoops, I'm sorry, I must have been thinking of the Dead Kennedys or some other punk band. Geoff: "don't open 'til doomsday" isn't that bad of a song, in fact that one and "the shining" are the best two on the record. Whoever said they held back on their metal style--I agree fully. I'd bet the next album has lyrics and sounds like "dig up her bones" and (ugh) "dead kings rise." Over all, however, the album ain't that bad, but Jerry needs to turn up the bass more and chud needs his cymbals miked better. Doyle dominates the entire sound a tad too much (for my taste anyway). AZ: yeah dude, even Bobby Steele has mentioned that Jerry said he was born again. I suppose Doyle would be too. I wonder if it's a band requirement... What sucks about the tour is that they avoid New Orleans, Memphis, and Jackson. It's not like two of the cities aren't good stops and Jackson's had helmet doing their second stop of their tour a couple of years ago. I guess they have to sell a bunch of tickets before they play...Oh well. ------------------------------ From: rabid.doctor@mindpulse.com Date: Fri, 20 Jun 1997 15:30:24 -0500 Subject: I just want to know info on how to get to the Franklin American Legion to see Times Square on the 28th.

Well, I haven't liked Megadeth since their first two CD's. They suck now if you ask me. The Misfits music can tear theirs a new as$hole out. Tell Metallica to play like The Misfits and they'd still be cool. So, eitherway I am going to see their concert because they are The Misfits, not Megadeth, and they are my favorite band in the world. If anyone is at the August show in New Jersey I will be there hopefully with friends. Tickets are around $35 and general admission. rabid doctor http://www.mindpulse.com/users/redrum ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 20 Jun 1997 16:26:44 -0500 From: Bill Hanscom Subject: Misfits Sighting / AP Vinyl Hi, I was watching the bmx bike jump event on ESPN's X-Games and the kid that was in the lead (at least he was while I watched) had two fiend club stickers on his helmet...wow! Is it really that hard to find AP on vinyl. I live near Boston, and out here we have a chain of record stores called Newbury Comics, the one near where I live has a bunch of them, I don''t think there selling very well. If you're really hurting for a copy you could send me money for a copy + shipping and I'd send you one. I am an honest guy.

How about that picture with a guy who looks like Clinton shaking hands with a guy dressed up like a US Marshall and the band's pictured in coffins? I laughed out loud when I saw that. Does he have short guy syndrome or what? I mean, I'm no blond Adonis but Christ, that took the cake. the new Fits are a breath of fresh air these days, the old Fits were great too. you don't like 'em, so fucking what? I should care? You can't take music like this too seriously, you want cerebral, try the Counting Crows or old Dylan stuff (eschew the antiChrist Vedder and his wannabe posing - oh the troubador at pains with his art!!) I'll guess that most of us are fans, not musicians. So as fans, we all like music, whatever the fuck that may be, and we buy what we like.

I just wanna say that there are a misfits tribute album out in Sweden called "HELL ON EARTH - HAIL TO THE MISFITS". I thought all you might not know that.

Here are the bands and the songs they play: TROUBLEMAKERS - Angelfuck TROUBLEMAKERS - Where eagles dare ENTOMBED - Hollywood babylon WOLFPACK - Death comes ripping THE MOBILE MOB FREAKSHOW - Blood feast THE MOBILE MOB FREAKSHOW - bullet BALZAC - Devils whorehouse THE 69 EYES - Return of the fly THE ROBOTS - Night of the living dead DERANGED - Some kinda hate DERANGED - Green hell LEFTHAND SOLUTION - She LEFTHAND SOLUTION - Hybrid moments GEHENNAH - Ghouls night out GEHENNAH - Queen wasp TENEBREE - Halloween 2 TENEBREE - Vampiria ASTRO ZOMBIES - Astrozombies ASTRO ZOMBIES - London dungeon GREENSCAB - Devilock GREENSCAB - Children in heat GENOCIDE SS - Demonomainia RETURN OF THE MISFITS - Who killed marilyn RETURN OF THE MISFITS - Earth ad BACKYARD BABIES - Teenagers from mars HELLACOPTERS - Bullet DEMONS - Children in heat DEMONS - She SEX SEX SEX - Horror hotel SEX SEX SEX - Halloween --------------------------------------------------------- Get Your *Web-Based* Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com --------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ From: GQFJ97A@prodigy.com (MR JOSEPH F MARINO) Date: Sat, 21 Jun 1997 14:16:38, -0500 Saw the Misfits on Thursday at the Trocadero in Philly. As I'm sure you already heard, they were filming for something...(Mtv, video?). If anyone knows what the filming was for, let me know. Anyway, the show was great. The sound had some problems, but as far as energy and fun, they were the best I've seen them so far. They played every new song except for Hellnight, Mar's Attacks, and Dead King's Rise, as well as still playing a lot of the old classics. After the show we went out to the back of the Troc. The guys came out one by one, with Doyle taking the longest of course, and signed anything and everything. I got AP on vinyl and CD signed by the whole band as well as Kryst the Conquerer cassette and Earth AD vinyl signed by Jerry and Doyle. I did notice that when compared to the previous Misfits shows I had seen, there seems to be a lot more people waiting outside for the band to come out. The number grows with each show. Good. ...Marino ------------------------------ Subject: IRVING PLAZA, MiSFiTS REVIEW From: davenaked@juno.com (dave naked) Date: Sat, 21 Jun 1997 14:36:59 EDT Just got back from the IRVING PLAZA Misfits show last night. Hmmm, pretty good. The band gave away free pairs of skull gloves to a few people in the front row, because Jerry said something like they were filming the show for some sort of TV thingy (Mark???!!!). I then thought, thats funny, didnt the law suit state that they could only release NEW songs to the public (live, that is). Well, I guess thats why they PLAYED EVERY NEW SONG (except Mars Attacks, and Hellnight). Somewhat dissapointing, them leaving out soooooo many of the old great songs (They **didnt** play Bullet, Teenagers from Mars, Night of the Living Dead, Vampira, Horror Hote, and morel). The only song they played off EAD was "Death Comes Ripping". Interesting. Oh, yeah Scott Ian came out with them to do "Where Eagles Dare". Mike sat a top of the crowd to do all of "We Are 138". Just a point. At more than a few shows Mike has said something like "Well, this is a punk rock show..." and hed go off from there. Its just funny, they kid just found out exactly what the fuck punk is. You dont see people into the scene forever saying like, "Hey man, this is a punk show get violent or something" Michale doesnt have a clue. Another interesting point, during BLANKS 77 he came out on the balcony and started throwing things out into the crowd. I dont know, I think thats kinda shitty. A band is on stage, playing the shit out of what they got, and Graves comes out so EVERYONE in the damn building could turn around to see what hes gonna do next. How much attension does he actually need?? (Another point, during BLANKS 77, I decided to do some crowd surfing, and I got over the bar only to find no one to catch me. I landed, fucking, square on my head. No one helped my up, and I stumbled over to the side. Ouch!). One more complaint...they played wayyy to many songs off the new album in order (arg!!, the first six!!!). Theyre tryong to pull off a Teenagers/Children affect, and, damn, its not working. Pretty good show, could have been better, not by much tho!! Oh, yeah...Mike cut his hair, he looks like a dork. dave ps: Anyone go? Anyone tape it??? ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 21 Jun 1997 20:21:05 -0400 (EDT) From: DANZIG8525@aol.com Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #346 IM GONNA RIP GRAVES DEVILOCK STRAIGHT THE FUCK OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tickets are on sale already, $22.50 plus fees comes out to about $27. That's about 60 cents a minute for the Misfits. Wouldn't that be GREAT if Machine Head was opening too, but the flyer I have says nothing of them. Deye Mofo--Def Con 3, what kind of band, because that name sounds so familiar, but the band I think you are is death metal, so maybe there's a Death Con 3. Anyway, from what I understand Dale Roller screwed over a lot of people with those CDs. I don't have his address (someone must on this list), but I do have the shows on tapes, and TO ALL THOSE RIPPED OFF BY THE DALE ROLLER PORTLAND CD! If you are interested I will offer you a deal on a tape the show in particular that was supposed to be on the tape. $3 a copy (as opposed to the $5). Please keep this only to those who were screwed over by this guy and for this show only. E-mail me before you send it over. D-Rod, are you still doing the B-Movie tape and if not would you like me to start offering it? Wolfsblood--$12 is a pretty good price for the green Collection II. I forgot how many were pressed, but it was the middle one, I think about 5000. I've seen those sold for $30. Brett, thanks for that info. I remember getting pissed when I tried translating Halloween II because all I could figure out was something about a tree (and as it turns out, I wasn't that far off).

They did what they did at the haloween shows w/ haloween II and the movie thing. They started out w/ dr. phibes and CHUD was running around like an asshole and missed the first part that he was supposer to play. Jerrys Devilock was looking not so great. Mike came out w/ the CG on his face and a bones shirt and blood all over him. They basiccly did the setlist working around the new albumtheyd play the first 5 then do some new then 5 more then some new. They came out and did 6 songs that belong in the regular setlist halloween, where eagles dare (w/ scotty from anthrax)horror biz, i turned into a martian, and death comes ripping. it was being videotaped for i have no idea what so mike only came into the crowd for 2 songs. afterwords i got interviewed for court tv asking me how the pit was cuz theyre doin a story on that kid who died moshing.the only songs on the new album that they didnt play were mars attacks, hellnight and dead kings rise. hey mark what was that recorded for?

OK, if anyone's interested, Clive Barker will be there = with Doug Bradley (Pinhead) and Gunner Hansen (SP) will be there = (Leatherface). Gwar will be there and be performing Sat. at midnight. = The Chaos comics team will be there (Evil Ernie, Lady Death, Purgatori, = etc.) Now here is where it gets interesting. I was at the Heroes Con in = Charlotte, NC. last weekend, where a couple of the Chaos artists and a = girl, who I guess was a Chaos promoter, were there. I was talking to the = girl because I bought a CD off of her. (Doomsday, which is the official = Chaos band I guess) She was telling me that Doomsday would be performing = along with Iced Earth. And, here it is, I asked her about a rumor that = the Misfits would be there, and she said "Yes, they'll be there." Does = anybody know anything about this at all???? It's this weekend and starts = Thursday night, goes through till Sunday night. I dunno, Glenn and the = Misfits in the same place at the same time? Also, if anybody's = interested, there will be a Kiss tribute band called Hotter Than Hell = performing one of the nights (can't remember which night though) and I = heard another rumor that Kiss would be there to promote the new Todd = McFarlane Kiss figures. I think it's somewhere around 60 bucks for the = whole weekend but hotels in downtown Atlanta are expensive as hell. (I = think the cheapest one I read about was 80 bucks a night) Well, anyway, = to see the Misfits and Glenn together again one last time(?) would be = worth it, ya think? -----L8R, Moloch----- ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 22 Jun 1997 14:11:02 -0400 From: DOYLE Subject: In the Doorway Does anyone have a copy of this song.

From: davenaked@juno.com (dave naked) Date: Mon, 23 Jun 1997 09:15:04 EDT Everyone on this mailing thingy seems to be wondering why, exactly, The Misfits are touring with Megadeth. Come on...Just think about it for a second or two. Why wouldnt Jerry and Co. tour with a "hot" (or the only) Metal band. They want to appeal to BOTH AUDIENCES. And why not, has ANY band done it in the past?? (yup, Motorhead whoops...but hey, Jerrys a Motorhead fan so maybe thats where he got it...) Dont believe me?? The band is on a punk/hardcore tour now (I just saw them with BLANKS 77, and KILLING TIME), and are about to go on a metal tour. They appear in METAL EDGE, and HIT PARADER but also MRR. They played two festivals METALFEST, and ACTION PARK (if you dont remember, thats punk). They have punk and metal songs on the new album. There first tour was with punk bands, and that quickly switched over to ANTHRAX, and CANNIBAL CORPSE. Why blame him. Jerry's damn smart. Why would he just get half of the kids out there to like his band?? Why not get em all into the Misfits. The only shitty thing is that fucking Metal shows are like six times the price of punk shows. About the Misfits being cockrock. Hey, thats the Metal side of things for ya punker!! naked, dave ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 23 Jun 1997 10:04:35 -0400 From: Tarry Carapezza Subject: Glenn comes to Washington So this last wee kat work I had a special duty. I was in charge of running a little TV station in the US Senate. We broadcast summeries of bills, amendments and other political bullshit and propaganda. The audio is the Senate floor. We are required to broadcast the entire floor debates w/o interuptions. But when the Senate is ajourned we can broadcast music as audio. Mostly we play jazz, blues, R+B, the guy usually in charge has played a lot of irish music. Well with me in charge I decided to funk things up a bit. I've been playing Stevie Wonder, Tom Waits, Cowboy Junkies. I couldn't resist, so I also played 'Thirteen' by Johnny Cash a few times as well.

Basically all i can say is that it was really really good. They played ALL the new stuff (except Mars Attack, Hellnight and Dead Kings Rise) and a SLEW of old stuff as well. They definitely did not disappoint!!! Before the Misifts came on, someone came on stage and said it was being taped for television, so Im assuming that as soon as Mark or anyone finds out when and where this will be broadcast he or she will tell us. Merchandise sold included skeleton finger gloves ($10.00), 4 different shirts (EAD, Die Die, AP, and skeleton....all about $15 if i recall), A set of 4 misfits collector trading cards ($10.00), and the poster set ($20?).

I actually met all 4 of the Misfits too. Its kind of funny to see them perform in their stage clothes, and then meet them outside irving Plaza a few hours after they play, in sweat pants..hehe. Mark, does Doyle have any emotions? Cuz all his answers were just one word, like "Yeah" or "heh". Cant wait to see them again August 14 with Megadeth.

Got out of work for my trip to NYC with AZ of the bible to see the fits. I could not wait, I remember the same trip about a year ago to see them for the first time at the Stone Pony, well i figured a 8 month wait would be just as good. But first stop was at the Vintage V in woodbridge to get some CD's. Picked up the some live Agnostic Front and some Oasis, dont flame be because of the Oasis. Then to the good old Cluck U for some wings! And off to NYC. Typical NYHC opening band, then the big wait for the Fits. The only thing I can say, is being in a rock band went to Graves head. Dont get me wrong, I was happy to see them, but I think he is turning into David Lee Roth, talking between songs, what happened to do one song and then 1234 go into another one. What was this telling about that there was record people in the crowd, Who gives a shit, they are not doing me any good!!! Then telling the people to go nutz?? What was up with that?? I like when the camera was on him for the video, he played right up to it. I was not impressed with him, but then who the hell am I!!! Jerry and Doyle kicked major ass, but Jerry didn't run around like he used to. Chud was just old Chud, kicking major ass on the drums!! The sound was excellent and not over powering!! I rate that show a 6 out of 10. I hope to see them again, but without Megadeth, Im glad D-Gen didn't open for the Fits in NYC cause they might have gotten blown away!!! HERE COMES THE FLAMES!!! gfk ps--afterwards got some Castles in bridgewater and they sucked, ask AZ!!!! ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 25 Jun 1997 12:10:35 -0800 From: Neil McAllister Subject: Conspiracy! >From: GYP666@aol.com >Date: Sat, 21 Jun 1997 05:38:30 -0400 (EDT) >Subject: SPOOK CITY USA > >E-mail me anything you have about the misfits. > >GYP666, >Tom Damien, Hotline # (810) 819-0187 Rblack8201@aol.com: You see?

"get ready to rock!" ---- here's a little something from a mag. same issue has a feature article with Dave Mustaine and Marty Friedman; no mention of the Misfits though. asterisks denote italics. GUITAR WORLD, 8/97 ------------------ 3 stars (of 4) THE MISFITS American Psycho GEFFEN The big question with the Misfits wasn't *when* they were going to enter the Nineties, but *how*. Since the loss of their lead singer, Glenn Danzig, over a decade ago, the band has been toying with the idea of reforming and re-entering the rock arena. And they have done so, in an *almost* brilliant way, with *American Psycho*. The title of the album is taken from a third-rate novel by Brett Easton Ellis, whose tale of a Wall Street killer perfectly reflects the mentality of this entire recording: cheap, violent, predictable and lots of fun. The Misfits have always carried that particular banner, and have always sung about Martians, graveyards, the devil, the dead and hell. Nothing much has changed, which is a good thing. The album was produced by Daniel Rey, best known for his work with the Ramones, and mixed by Andy Wallace, who has also worked with Slayer. So, you get a Ramones- meets-Slayer sound, which, of course, is the only way the Misfits could have gone, considering their new audience is comprised of kids who only know them from the T-shirts big metal bands wear in their honor. -- George Tabb ---- bwahahaha. ryq "the anvil" neidhart ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 25 Jun 1997 16:10:50 -0400 (EDT) From: Misfits Central TAB Subject: Mars Attacks currently, there are three opinions about the chorus riff from the song "mars attacks". we present them here and ask that the guitar/bass playing Bible fiends please some opinions on their accuracy.

I don't have time or money to make them now. You said his is a quality job. You haven't seen mine have you? You cunt. The 25 people who got shirts from me loved them, including Jake Starr. Mark Estes stoled my idea and is obviously trying to compete with me. I sold mine for 14, he's his for 13. And he's an jerk for doing such. He could be making Bone shirts or something else instead. Not something I'm doing. You said I screwed you over, you said I screwed everyone. What the fuck! You sent me email and said you wanted one. I said okay; the end. You did not send me money and not get a shirt. You said you ordered one from me, If you sent me money THEN you ordered one. No one has sent me money and not gotten a shirt. What business do you have comimg in here and posting not to trust me and not to do business with me? Everyone's email is in my Inbox and will stay there. I predict I will be back in business in August. I did nothing wrong to you and you are out of line. If anyone wants to see my shirts, go find my ad at the news section on Misfits Central. and don't take my page seriously. There you can see my design and decide if you like it, unlike Mark Estes's shirt. I finally worked something out with Horrorkid. In exchange for the money he owed me he sent me a model I wanted that he happened to have. If Michale isn't supposed to be copying Glenn then why's he wearing a bone shirt I thought. Now, why is Michale putting fake blood all over himself like Glenn, but the thing with that is...that's not even the Misfits. That's Samhain. What the heck?

All in all they were great, I mean this IS the misfits! They were shooting a video both days. And they gave out gloves and everything. The opening bands were fine I guess, although I would like to take this opportunity to say just how much I dislike d-generation. Fortunatly I get to see them what four more times on this part of the tour. Blanks 77 were good, why can't they play instead? Oh god why? Anyway michale came out in a new little outfit. He took the skeleton shirt and cut the arms off and cut tails in the back. Then he had stiches all over him and blood. and of course there was the skull make-up and the cute little top hat. He seem to have aquired some new moves since halloween, and he just stomps all over the stage. Then he does 'heavy metal' about every 2 or 3 seconds to the audience. It's so cute. Everyone else is basicly exactly the same. They new stuff sounds great live and they played every song except dead kings rise, mars attacks, and hellnight (much to my chagrin). But they left out a few songs I would have like to have heard like horror hotel, vampira and even bullet. It was kind of weird, thier new first song is American Psycho (like you didn't expect it!) But they play halloween later on. They still end with die, die except they didn't at irving plaza. Some kind of equiptment problem I gather. Let me see, hmmm...I didn't hear any good gossip. Except that chud said he wrote crimson ghost before seeing the last episode of the serial and he feels kind of stupid cause in fact they do get the crimson ghost.

Adam R. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 25 Jun 1997 22:03:57 -0400 Subject: show review From: Jay HellHound whats up fucks? saw the misfits sunday night at lupo's heartbreak hotel in RI. before the misfits came on they handed out skeleton gloves to the first few rows and announced that they were tapeing and filming the show and that "you Will be on TV" there was about three cameras going the whole time. before they came on stage they showed a movie with horror clips while halloween II played over and over. then as usual they played "Dr. Phibes" and jumped straight into, to my horror, American Psycho, NOT Halloween as i had hoped. they proceeded to play songs off of the whole album except hellnight, while tossing in old songs every once in a while. they played a bunch of oldies but not as many as i would have liked. before "dig up her bones" jerry announced that they were taping it for a video. When they played Mars Attacks they brought out a life size martian doll from the movie which seemed to only be there for mike to kick around. Mike was wearing CG makeup and fake blood. the first two times i saw them last year i really liked mike, but now i dont like him so much. he has so become THE SINGER. last year he would bring the mike to the kids in the crowd to let them sing parts of the songs, but he doesnt do that anymore and i was kinda disappointed because it seems like the crowd isnt as important anymore. there seemed to be alot more interaction last time around. all in all it was a great fuckin show and cant wait to see them tommorow in Boston, Seeya, "All i Want, All i Need, Is Just My Self Back, And The Strength to Believe She Never Ever Took That." -Manhole HellHound ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 25 Jun 1997 18:12:32 -0400 From: margret paolini Subject: "What the HELL has happened?" First off, I love the music the Misfits have provided for fiends over the past twenty years. But something is very wrong..... I went to the show at Lupo's on the 22, and left very annoyed and completely unfulfilled. I saw the Misfits three times on the Ressurection tour and they were amazing, all business, no crap. At Lupo's on Sunday night was a different story. Graves has turned into a complete idiot, he jumped around all stupid and lame, and did not sing half the time. Jerry was chewing gum and smiling and letting people touch him and his bass instead of playing the music. They were filming for some MTV video, and TOLD people to look like they were having a good time and to really get off to the music( I thought it was supposed to be a natural thing?) Graves had this really lame Mars Attacks doll that he paraded around the stage with. Jerry and Graves were all over the place during the show acting like complete morons. Chud was a bright point with very heavy and solid drumming, as was Doyle who kept his parading to a minimum and was very serious about the show. One more thing, people who throw punches and crowd surf when there is NO music playing made the show even worse. This one kid even leaped off the stage when the show was completely over. As for the new merchandise I thought it was great to reissue the DIE DIE, and Earth A.D. shirts but they ruined those by printing them in about 10 different "pretty" neon colors. Mommy.... was screwed up completely, as were many other songs. And even though I have defended the AP songs, they are really hard to get off to when played live, just not very fun I guess. I'm going to see them in Cambridge on Thursday, I won't expect as much, due to the fact that I and many others after the show were completely and utterly let down.

Just because the played more of the new stuff then the old don't mean shit. You have to figure it this way it's The AP tour why wouldn't they play most of the new stuff. Also, the were filming for a video, I believe it was for The Shining,But i'm not sure. But anyways, they are supposed to send it out to like MTV(which sucks anyway) and places like that to see who will pick it up. But I heard if they don't pick it up it will be made available to the Fiend Club. Next, This is not about the Misfits, If any fiends are in the Philly area and they, or someone they know, plays drums my Band CopeStone is looking for a new drummer.

We know they were inspired by them, so logically Megadeth/Mustaine must have some Misfits influences too, even if you cant hear it in their music. Just because a lot of you dont like Megadeth obviously the new Misfits do so cool it. Im just glad this is bringing the Misfits to the Pacific Northwest, even tho I havent heard of any club shows for the west coast (yet??) Im not really into arena rock. BTW, does anybody know how much tickets are going for at either the Salem show or the Seattle show? I just moved up here (Longview, WA) from California and I dont know where to get that info. I would appreciate it. L8, GO(V)! ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Jun 1997 16:46:18 -0700 From: Deye Mofo Subject: Def Con 3 /// Dale Roller First of all, ChristoTer, Def Con 3 is certainly not a death metal band. I truly believe there is a band called Death Con 3 out there (where'd we hear of this? Metal Maniacs?), which is a play on the phrase "Def Con 3." Also, Pop Will Eat Itself once recorded a song called "Def Con 1." The phrase "Def Con 3" stands for Defense Condition Three, which is a military code. Anyway, Def Con 3 (my band) has a barely out-of-date page (will be updated ASAP) up on the Explode Yer Load Records web site (URL's in my sig). *** ON THE SUBJECT OF DALE ROLLER *** About one week ago, I received a package from Dale Roller. It contained my Misfits Portland CD (just a gold disc with "Misfits" hand-written on the label side) and a video simply titled "The Misfits - U.K. 1983" which I haven't finished watching yet. Dale probably added that because the package was about seven or eight months late. Well, Dale Roller did not rip me off at all, as it finally ends up. Here's the deal. I will soon be getting a CD burner. I will press CDs of this show for the other fiends out there. I plan for the price to run aound $10-15. I hope it can be even less than that! It all depends on my personal costs. This is certainly less than Dale Roller's original $23. There was someone of this list that had a cassette from a Misfits soundboard radio broadcast, he was selling for about $7. I e-mailed him way back when, but I ended up losing touch. If you're still out there, I still want a 1st Gen copy of this show, bro! BRING BACK THE B-MOVIE MADNESS TAPE!!!!!!!!!

Personally, it reminds me more of the early Carcass stuff (Symphonies of Sickness era stuff). Making problems for MEGADETH (one "a") is going to get you nowhere. It strikes me as being very strange that people would consider this idea. I doubt Megadeth stuck a gun to the Misfits heads and said "You will open for us", think about it, the band you love is getting a great opportunity to play places that hold 5000+ people. This means more opportunities for the band in the future, more fiends, more income (which will hopefully turn into more Fiend Club stuff), etc etc. Support your band, but to give problems to another is pointless, unless you're just a dickhead... Do you really think that if 10 people in Misfits shirts throw bottles at Megadeth, they're going to leave the stage so that the Misfits can come back on for two hours? And Graverobbr--Misfits are opening for Megadeth, not the other way around. Machine Head will probably not be on the tour, as they will be opening for C.O.C.

It was amazing, they rocked so fuckin' hard. The first 2 bands were very mediocre, in my opinion...but, it was worth the wait to see the 'fits. When they first came on stage (exactly at midnight) Michale's theatrics were a bit much but he toned down later. I heard from others that Mike was a bit of a blabbermouth through out other shows...such was not the case last night. They went from song to song, every once in a while he would say something but not much. They played alot of the new album, and tons of old material. The whole second half of the show was requests from the crowd...and I am glad to say that they did play bullet, thanks to my friend's screaming. They also played (in no particular order): ghouls night out, devil's whorehouse, horror hotel, astro zombies, braineaters, devilock, green hell, all hell breaks loose, mommy.../london dungeon, we are 138, she, return of the fly, last caress, hate breeders, (a shitty version of) attitude, 20 eyes, where eagles dare, static age, tv casualty, hybrid moments, some kinda hate, death comes ripping, bloodfeast, and skulls. Over all it was great. Jerry Only came out afterwards to sign autographs and take pictures. Well that's it. Hopefully my pictures wil come out. Bill P.S. I finished writing this at 1:38 pm on saturday. ----------------------------------------------------------- Bill Hanscom hanscom@shore.net Visit ROCK CITY USA at... http://www.shore.net/~hanscom ----------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 28 Jun 1997 14:35:17 -0400 (EDT) From: Paul Shanoski Subject: Boston Show At the stroke of midnight last night, the Misfits hit the stage in Boston and put on one Hell of a show. Graves came out in full skull makeup and an Abe Lincoln stove pipe hat, but I think he just might have been upstaged by the Crimson Ghost in the audience. They played for just under 2 hours, playing most of the tracks from AS (leaving out the same songs the other Fiends have posted in previous shows) during the first hour, as well as lots of older material during the second hour when they took requests. I know that I'll hear about this, but in my opinion Graves is just as good as Danzig ever was. I was glad to see that last night he lacked the "rock and roll star" attitude that other Fiends have posted about. The last time I saw the Misfits was in Cleveland last August, when Graves was absent and they consequently lacked a lead singer. I thought that show was good, but it paled in comparison to last night's. AS gets a lot of slack for being too metallish, but I think the band has always treaded on the metallic side of punk, and AS simply pushes the envelope a little further. But then again, this is all semantics, and who cares what I think anyway? Metal or punk, terror or comedy, what is important is that after 20 years they still put on a great show, one that is well worth the ten dollars. These are great guys, and this is a tour that should not be missed. ---Paul Shanoski ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 28 Jun 1997 15:23:06 -0700 (PDT) From: Daniel Herrmann Subject: The Undead Well, I got the Undead tape "Dawn of the Undead" this week. Wow. What can I say? It fuckin' kicks ass!!! It's like a "Best Of". Has all the recordings of the Undead from '82 to '89.

I highly recommend this album, or any of the Undead's for that matter. Better hurry though, the CD version is already sold out. PS - did I mention this album kicks ass?
