Eerie was their photographer for 2 years or so. He also was Doyle's best friend in high school. Eerie wrote the lines notes to the Box Set and helped out with both the Box and Static Age. Eerie also had a band whose EP featured pictures of the Misfits and was a Misfits roadie at some shows. Eerie also auditioned (and briefly joined) the band as drummer and joined Glenn's post-Misfits band.

Besides being in Glenn's post-Misfits band Samhain, Lyle was very high up in Caroline Records for several years, and helped produce COLLECTION II and the BOX SET, and helped with STATIC AGE. Also fiends, if anyone is interested, my roommate has picked up the white vinyl Rocket From The Crypt / Misfits live bootleg (300 copies made) and will sell it for $25.

It's an SB4001. A *very* popular bass in the 70's, Cheap as fuck back then, but now considered somewhat seminal. Now they sell for about $600 slightly used (read: beat up). Personally it's a nice sounding bass with a great feeling neck, but I'll take my p-bass any day. >From: "Bullet" > >fist off i wanna say that the fits are the best and going strong after = >all these years.. i used to live about 2 miles from jerry and doyle.. = >they used to drive around in a big black blazer with giant spikes all = >over it... it was cool as fuck... This is true! cool as fuck? I doubt it. It was Doyle's Blazer, Black with huge aluminum spikes on the hood. (like the spikes on the drum set) They used this thing for quite a while, then Rocky got an old Jeep Wagoneer, he painted it (WITH A FUCKING BRUSH!) in the 'desert storm' camo scheme.

YOU, are an Elitest how-cool-i-try-to-be, brainwashed ,prick. So what you're really saying is something like, uh let's see... To be into the Misfits and accepted by they're "REAL" fans you've gotta dress a certain way? Like what? Black on Black? or maybe Black on leather with an appropriate 30 year old B-horror movie t-shirt or some nonsense? Or maybe in black pajamas that have been painted to look like a skeleton? Then you go on... >This time he screwed us over!He has gone to MTV! Screwed us? Speak for yourself. The Misfits are in business to make money. Not to appease some starry-eyed moron like yourself. This is how they feed their families. >He has messed up big time.What they should >have dome is make the videos but SELL THEM THROUGH THE FIEND >CLUB! Puhleeze, why on earth would he sell them through the fiend club? Number 1 that's not promoting or advertising his BUSINESS. Number 2 how many people are currently in the fiend club? maybe 15,000 max? And more than half of those people wouldn't buy the video anyway, they'd wait for a friend to buy it and dupe them a copy. Get with the program, yesterday's underground/alternative music will always be tomorrow's mainstream. Look at the bright side, just wait a little while, there will be another trendy underground "bandwagon" for YOU and your ilk to jump on. Since it seems that the possibility of the Misfits on MTV is ruling your life, I'd say it's time to get a real one. "So what's it going to then, eh?"

Golden Shower is okay, and Wonderful is pretty sad. They got a different bassist (Zander Schloss, who had an interesting role in Repo Man), and a different drummer. I never heard anything else besides these 4, but I understand the one they just came out last year really blows. I don't know when Hetson left, but sometime between '85 and '88, 'cause he's on Suffer. [for those of you complaining, this is related to the Misfits, albeit indirectly]. Here's a question: Did Robo quit playing period after quitting the Misfits? ------------------------------ From: amuir@mailhost.beckett.com (Allan Muir) Subject: Misfits to rule charts! Date: Mon, 25 Aug 1997 15:36:05 -0500 Am I missing something here? Are you people saying it would be a bad thing were MTV to play the 'Fits vid? What the hell is wrong with you all? I think it's pretty much a given that MTV -- and popular music in general -- pretty much sucks right now. It's also a given that the Misfits are a great band that don't get anywhere near the attention they deserve. Therefore, it MTV were to play the Misfits, two goals would be accomplished: a) MTV would be playing something decent for a change; b) the Misfits would have the potential to reach new fans. Wouldn't it be great if the 'Fits -- a truly deserving band -- sold a million records and Hansen sold 10,000? C'mon, that would be absolutely brilliant!! As an old-school punk (I was around in the 70s, boyos), I remember what it was like to hate anything that was popular simply because it was popular. As I've grown up, I've learned that gaining popularity does not necessarily equate to the dreaded "selling out". Were this album (or any single) to get significant air time, would it make the album any less cool than it is now? Absolutely not! Selling the DUHB video to Fiend clubbers would accomplish nothing -- it's preaching to the choir. The 'Fits need to grab the unconverted, and MTV is the way to do it. If that makes them uncool in your mind, you need to seriously re-examine your criteria. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 25 Aug 1997 16:40:26 -0400 From: "Kevin L.

I got a few more orders than expected and kind of got taken by surprise. So, don't worry! I also want to thank everyone who ordered. I'm having lots of fun, and if there's any demand, I might do another one. Only better. I am also SERIOUSLY thinking about a Misfits comic book. I just need a really cool story. Any ideas, fellow fiends? I got to hear the CHYNA 4-song c.d., and it is VERY good. If you get a chance, check it out.

Next.....I have an unopened copy of " Distorted Pony: instant winner". Can anyone out there tell me anything about the pressing info?

If anyone out there is going to be in the area on the 28th, 29th, 30th, or 31st of this month..email me and maybe we can hook up ( I can always use another search donkey...). As far as the pictures on my site go.......well, If I didn't want them to get stolen/used/etc.. then I shouldn't have posted them. You see, the whole idea here is to inform people about OUR FAVORITE BAND, not see who can become the owner of the most obscure items...Take my pictures please..I only ask the same as Mark..please credit me for any pics that I personally found (not robbed off of other sites), and link to my site too... copyright...take that up with my lawyers..Duie, Cheatem and Howe.

Wow,the quality of the posts have really gone up!I hope that means Ryq and EvilDieff will be coming back! Of course,there's always an exception.... "Bullet" WROTE: >face it, mtv is too worried about NIGGAS and FAGGOTS and i dont even = >think they play any videos any more do they? wow really exciting, lets = >watch some faggot with aids sit around a house and cook spagetti.... mtv I really think Mtv deserves criticism,but if you're going to criticize it,do it for the right reasons.It isn't WHO plays the music that matters,but the QUALITY of the music.It really bothers me to see that we have so many racists and homofobics among us in the Misfits Bible.I always thought fiends were,in general, intelligent and open minded beings,but the quantity of posts like the one mentioned above really proves me wrong. He also said.... >and who cares about bobby steele anyways? Well,I do,and I'm sure A LOT of people on the MB do too.His posts are among the best in the bible,second only to Mark's.Whether you agree with what he has to say or not,his posts are always entertaining and very well written.He thinks before posting,which is something you should try to do. Last bible,someone mentioned LATIN Mtv.Well,I recommend that anyone who has acces to it to tune in,'cause it is what Mtv is SUPPOSED to be.They have programs who appeal to specific audiences,and they also don't overplay any songs just 'cause they're popular.I mean,you won't have to listen to Hanson 50 times in one day while waiting for a Danzig video.Another good thing is that They have a Metal/Punk program(Headbangers,a sort of a ripoff from the original Headbangers' Ball)twice a week,and it lasts several hours(AT LEAST 2 and a half),so they play all sorts of stuff.Heck,they played Serpentia and Sacrifice MANY times,and everyone knows how the executives who run the regular Mtv dislike Glenn Danzig,often censoring his videos without any apparent reason(or did any of you think that HER BLACK WINGS had images that had explicit sexual conotations?). Well,the bottom line is:Latin Mtv IS NOT like the regular Mtv,so you should try and check it out. By the way,brasilian Mtv sucks as much as the american version,it only has A LOT more T and A!:0) While on the subject of MTV,Punkture,you're absolutely right,when Jerry sent the video to Mtv,he perverted the memory of the original Misfits.The fact that it'll probably be aired at 3 a.m. doesn't mean shit,'cause Jerry's original intent was (and IS!)to make it a big hit.He already betrayed us(or at least betrayed ME, 'cause the Misfits going to Mtv is something I hoped would never happen). Now you say "betrayed you?!Do they owe you anything?"Ok,so they DON'T owe me anything,but they should at least have some kind of respect for the Misfits' image,and more important,the Misfits' LEGEND!Oh well,it is already done,the video will be aired soon,so I'll just stop bitching about it... The question remains...were Jerry's glasses glued to his face during his high school years? Later,and stay evil.

Hey fiends, what's up ? Listen, I think that having Misfits Chat is cool, but since there's only .01% chance of anyone being there, why can't someone ( Mark, Tammy, Horror Kid ... ) come up with some kind of schedule so that all of us cool fiends can hang-out together and discuss our favorite band . Something along the lines of Mon/Weds/Fri 9:00 Central or whatever . That way we would get the hard core fans all rallied up together three times a week for discussion on trading, the Fiend Club, tour dates, hell --- even car pooling for new shows . The possibilities are endless . It's just a thought though ... Grrr!!!

Unlike Danzig, Michale Graves is quite the showman. Michale made Danzig look like a piece of shit! Even though his vocals were too low to hear most of the show; and American Psycho beats the shit out of Danzig's, Black Asshole Devil. We got to meet the Misfits before the show, and I found out first hand that they are the coolest band that you could ever encounter. They didn't refuse autographs or pictures like other bands that I've met. Other people have accused Jerry Only of being less than genuine, but I'd like to tell them people, (Especially Bobby "Glam Hair" Steele) that they can GO TO HELL! And if anyone who's met him disagrees then they must be some kinda fucking asshole, because he's a fucking cool ass guy. Anyway... Even though I didn't particularly care for the opening bands, the show was fucking Awesome!

In the Detroit 06/22/94 show Metallica plays Last Caress with Glenn, and there are three guitarists. Who is the new guy? Also, I just finished watching The Misfits from Ft. Myers, Florida, 06/20/96, and I want to know when the hell did Jerry learn how to sing? Most of his whoa whoa's are in key, and he sings a lot of other stuff too. I noticed on American Psycho there is a name credited with vocal training. What's going on here???

I think you should be booted from the Bible. > From: ChristoTer@aol.com > Why is it the Misfits play like 50 shows on the east coast but come to > Chicago once a year? I mean, they've headlined here once. MK then responded: >>>>>I would say part of it has to do with them living on the east coast. Fine, they still play more on the West Coast than here. Even Kentucky got them more than Chicago. They can play in DAVENPORT IOWA but not Chicago. And is Florida really closer to NJ than Chicago? The reason I was really just stating that it seems the band goes from Ohio to Indiana to Minnesota to Michigan down to St Louis. I mean, they passed up Chicago many times last year but failed to stop and do a show. Maybe it wasn't possible....But even recently they headlined in Indiana, but not couldn't drive 2-3 hours more to Chicago? Crash666, actually with the exception of Glenn and Jerry, I reckon Bobby was in the Misfits longer than anyone else (I might be wrong). I guess Doyle now because of the new band, but we're not talking about the new band. And I really need to argue the "Doyle was there from the beginning" comment. I think if you were owed as much money as Bobby you'd be pissed to. 35 tracks on the box set, not to mention money for all the Collections and other singles, etc etc. Not only that, but in my opinion, gathered from all the talk and interview and comments, Jerry was out to get Bobby so Doyle could be in and like Emmeril says "BAM, he kicked it up a notch" and the Caifas had Glenn surrounded before he knew what hit him.

And for all you death metal fans, we're also gonna include the interview with Oppressor at Bay Street Bar in Savannah, GA. Check us out: Vibrations of Doom www.kmf.org/~cl/vod_home.html Might I say, the Misfits show in Atlanta kicked some MAJOR ass! I don't have a lot of time to include the details right now (except that Megadeth didn't open for them--two local bands did). I have to admit--Michale's vocals weren't quite as good this time as they were at the show last year, but I REALLY think he's getting into the crowd more this time around! The pit during "Mommy" was UNBELIEVEABLE! Michale told us to form a pit around the entire club and mosh our asses off--and it damn sure happened! One final note, and this is VERY IMPORTANT! PAY VERY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THIS! Jerry Only told me to tell ALL OF YOU that if you want to see them on the internet, BE NICE! They will post on the Bible and we will be able to send e-mail to them if everyone will just stop ALL the bullshit, the flaming, the bashing (this includes the Glenn-bashing AND the Bobby-bashing!). If you want to criticize, be constructive and be nice about it! Also, keep in mind that they are NOT here to relive 1977--it's 1997, and they're starting over with new stuff! If you don't like the new stuff, you don't have to--just don't give them any shit about it! When they were on the net, Michale was doing the e-mail--and he was trying to be as nice as he could (he was practically kissing your asses!). A lot of what he got in return were flames and bullshit. Like I say, if you're gonna criticize be nice about it--tell them what they can improve on. But BE NICE! In fact, we would love for all you guys running the Bible to enforce the rules as much as possible. I know we would all like to see the band we all know and love posting on here! When the flames are at a minimum, Steve and I will call Jerry ourselves (either at his house or at Geffen) and tell him to get back on the net. And, again, we should all thank Mark for the job-and-a-half that he's doing to keep all this going (the Misfits thank you too!!!)! Thanks for your time, fiends!

Todd McFarlane was already one of the richest artists in the world after his successes on AMAZING SPIDER-MAN and SPIDER-MAN; he was easily the highest-paid comic book artist. He was, and remains, at the top of his industry -- somewhere no Misfit has ever been. Sure, when Todd went on his own, his company was "DIY", but he had enormous amounts of money, as well as the anticipation of an entire industry on his side. Even in its current slump, the comic book industry is MANY times larger than the Misfits' fan base. SPAWN *immediately* became the #1 comic book in the world, and every single issue for five years since then has issue has placed in the top 5 or 10 monthly best-sellers. -Brett ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 27 Aug 1997 04:00:42 -0400 From: John Troy Subject: www.misfits.com Does anyone know what's the deal with www.misfits.com?

A *very* popular bass in the 70's, Cheap as fuck back then, >but now considered somewhat seminal. Now they sell for about $600 slightly >used (read: beat up). Personally it's a nice sounding bass with a great >feeling neck, but I'll take my p-bass any day. Hey, welcome back dude, its nice to see some intelligence flow back in here .... ever find your folks mobile phone #??? I played Rick basses for about 5 years, and much prefered them over the P-Bass, I though the neck was easier to play chords on, and with stereo outputs via the Rick-O-sound box, you can amplify each pickup separatly .. very cool ... but to each his own! The reason Rick basses were huge in the 70's (for all of you who care) was beacause Fender, the preeminent electric bass manufacturer, was bought by CBS in 1968 and quality took a HUGE nose dive. If you look around, alot of the big bass players of the 70s (Geezer Butler, Geddy Lee, the guy from Deep Purple, etc..) were playing Ricks. If you saw a Fender bass in those days it was pre CBS 60s model. Alot of the punk bands were using them as well, I have seen pictures of Matlock, Simonon, Vicious (gag!) and alot of other punk bassists using Ricks instead of Fenders. anyway CG goes on "To be into the Misfits and accepted by they're "REAL" fans >you've gotta dress a certain >way?

AZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 27 Aug 1997 15:31:37 +0000 From: Julian Baldry Subject: The MTV debacle Sometime, somebody said: **This time he screwed us over! He has gone to MTV!** In Bible #371, CG replied: >Screwed us? Speak for yourself. The Misfits are in business to make >money. Not to appease some starry-eyed moron like yourself. This is >how they feed their families. Correct to the last letter CG. It's just a good job that the original Misfits didn't have the same attitude as some people on this Bible otherwise they'd have recorded their songs, handed each other personal copies of the cassette and then ridden off into the sunset claiming themselves to be the most obscure band in history... only no one else would either know nor care about it. I realise that MTV Europe is different to MTV America (though, unfortunately, not THAT different) but I've seen a thousand and one Scandinavian Death Metal bands videos played over here and it's not made their album sales go beyond the single figure mark. I don't often see young kids running around with pentagrams etched into their foreheads screaming 'Norse Gods arise!' in dumb monster voices either. In 1984 MTV had the power to break almost any artist on heavy rotation into a major act, in 1997 it barely has the power to make Jenny McCarthy think she can do comedy. MTV airplay will make little or no difference to the way the Misfits are perceived, it may sell them a few more albums and may turn a few more people onto them but how in the hell does that actually affect YOU? It doesn't, or at least, you shouldn't let it. And anyway, does it matter how you get into a band? Is someone that sees the Dig Up Her Bones video and then goes out and buys American Psycho any different to the guy who saw a shitty bootleg 15 years ago and bought Walk Among Us? Jerry has consistently said he wants to take this band as far as he can. The subtext to his statements do basically read 'make as much money as we can' but then the two usually go hand in hand anyway, especially in the music industry. I know there's people on here that would rather he spent his time busking for pennies but the guy's got a wife and kids to look after and can't keep this thing together for too many more years before it'll look ridiculous. They've done the 'starving punk' crap... remember?

Hmmm... the Misfits don't want to venture out to the Internet because of the bad behavior of the people on this mailing list, eh? Well, I suppose they do have a point. But I think they ought to understand two things: 1. The Internet is a place where candy-asses can post all over creation with their big-mouthed, big-attitude slams and flames, and not worry about retribution. It doesn't matter how much of a badass you are in real life, you might as well be pretty damn tough if you're halfway around the world from the other guy. Case in point: >WHERE THE FUCK DO YOU GET OFF? This remark is directed at "Bullet >) what kind of pussy bigot are you? are you the >Nazi I beat the shit out of just last night? ...and yadda yadda yadda, and on to offer a good metaphorical ass-kickin' if the guy ever was to cross into his area of Cyberspace again. What's the point? One guy goes fishing for people to make fools out of themselves by spitting out angry rants in response to fake, made-up comments, and another guy is happy to oblige. All because everybody, in reality, is sitting on their asses at home or at work, and they don't even need to look at the other guy, so they feel like they can say just about whatever crosses their mind without shame or fear of retribution. Like it or not, the same thing WILL happen to the Misfits if they venture onto the Internet. Usenet is particularly vindictive (though I understand a lot of people find reasonable discussion forums on private services like Compuserve). If you want to come out onto the net and fish for publicity, you can't afford to be thin-skinned. 2. The Misfits are a band with a "cult following". A lot of people care perhaps a little too much about the music, particularly the older music. If the Misfits just want to come here and run jerk-off sessions like this: INSANEFAN08: Michale, that song "Dig Up Her Bones" is pure genius. How did you get to be so smart? GRAVES: I stayed in school and bought all the albums by my favorite bands. DROOLING: Jerry, what's Glenn Danzig really like? ONLY: He's a jerk and a complete failure. Always remember that. DROOLING: Is it true there's backward-masked messages about Glenn on "American Psycho"? ONLY: Buy the album and find out. FIEND138: Dr. Chud, what's it like playing drums in the greatest band in the entire known world? CHUD: It's great, because I get to have my own authorized drumsticks, which you will be able to buy through the Fiend Club this fall! CG: Jerry, I liked the old Misfits, but I didn't buy the new album because I believe it shows a much poorer musical direction than the earlier works. Frankly, I think Glenn Danzig contributed the most to the Misfits' musical successes. Would you ever be interested in collaborating with him again? JERRY: That does it!! We're outta here!!! ... well then, what's the point? To me, though I understand Jerry's comments about why he doesn't like to participate on the Internet, it sort of comes off like he's telling us that if we shape up, we might get a P.R. rap session or two on the 'net. Who cares? There's certainly no reason to be rude to Jerry & the boys -- but if he's not willing to talk about anything but his new success with the help of Geffen Records, then I don't see where it's such a great loss. It's just not that fascinating of a conversation to have... >From: Sheila Brown >Subject: Hey Fiend >Date: Thu, 28 Aug 1997 19:30:39 -0400 > >I am a misfits lover for more than 7 years I hope their wives don't find out, for your sake... -- | Neil McAllister - Systems Administrator | Primo Angeli Inc., San Francisco, CA, USA | http://www.primo.com mailto://pcm2@sentient.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 27 Aug 1997 11:09:47 -0700 From: Adrian Honey Subject: Walk Among us Vinyl I am using a friend's account and I am looking for a reissue copy of Walk Among Us on vinyl.

I WILL REMEMBER ALL THE WORDS TO THIS MUSICAL MASTERPIECE THAT WE THE BAND HAVE HONED INTO A BEAUTIFUL ART FORM!!! whew... anyway, you're sellin out either way you look at it. sure it come in various levelsfrom your girlfriend thinking you're dead because you just spent 9 days in a storage unit eating ho-hos and beef ravioli coldso you could practice non stop and you forgot to call her( and probably your name, too. i think this is why so many musicians change thier names...) all the way up to trying to sell your time and talent to a guy named alex wiess so that you can afford to go on tour and open for cheap trick or something. so , in repose, if you're gonna play music for a livin, you are sellin your fucking soul to do it. that takes tremendous amounts of balls if you ask me.the variablesare too much. you could end up homeless, incredibly rich, or dead like john lennon. if you play music, the public is gonna love you, and they're gonna hate you. it is time for some of you to decide how you feel about the misfits. please make the decision soon. thanks, arlo 2.1.76. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 27 Aug 1997 15:23:06 -0400 (EDT) From: Mikeholnd@aol.com Subject: 3 Hits From Hell orange label etc...

I was just perusing the latest Bible and came across a buncha bullshit that's getting REALLY old: 1) HOMOPHOBES AND RACISTS - Is this shit really necessary? If those are your beliefs, fine....who gives a shit? Take your crap to some racist forum where it belongs and quit antagonizing people. 2) EVERYONE BITCHING ABOUT THE MISFITS ON MTV - Having sworn off MTV years ago, I haven't even seen the video. The point is, THERE ARE ALREADY POSEUR FANS OUT THERE, so who cares? Sure, MTV might overplay the Misfits, but the true fans won't get sick of it. The only ones who will get sick of it are the people who jumped the bandwagon in the first place. So, in the end, we're back at square one, with perhaps a few new diehards fans who might never have discovered the band if not for MTV. However, just because I acknowledge the fact that there are poseur fans does not mean that I think Misfits or punk fans in general have to succumb to a stereotype and dress a certain way. Shit, I'll wear liderhosen and a Darth Vader helmet if I want to, but as long as I sincerely love the music, that's all that matters!!!!

Speaking of Collection2, "Mephisto Waltz" is a Samhain song, right? >> Not a Misfits one... Mark Answered: >Not Misfits for sure - sort of Samhain - Steve and Glenn from Samhain >only, recorded January '84 before Initium. Let's make this one perfectly clear before this whole thread starts up again. I believe it was Steve Zing that said Mephisto Waltz was recorded by Glenn and himself. This is a proven fact by someone that was there. Jerry claims that he had nothing to do with it, therefore proving (or just about proving) Steve's claim. Technically it's a Misfits song for one reason only, Glenn released it on Collection II while still in control of the name "Misfits" tm. Glenn could have released it under either band, he chose to release it under the name Misfits probably because he thinks it's an unmitigated piece of shit and didn't want to tarnish the good name of Samhain. Personally if that's the case I think he's right. Obviously it's a Samhain song because of who played on it, but Glenn had the right to release it under either name, period. Just like Jerry has the right to call American Psycho a Misfits record. Dave Naked said: >" Everyone...EVERYONE has been doing Misfits tributes, but >as it seems, no one has been including selections from what some believe to be a >SEMINAL album...AMERICAN PSYCHO!!! Who actually had the balls to call a brand new album seminal?? Seminal means "of the seed, semen, of CRUCIAL importance, critical. The tunes from Static Age (ie: the original singles and beware) are somewhat seminal, being that they influenced a number of newer bands. The Ramones, the stooges, the MC5 are seminal, they influenced literally thousands of bands. But a record that's only been out for a couple of months is definitely *NOT* seminal. People may think that it's the best work the band has ever done, that's opinion and it's valid (it's not mine) but seminal is another story entirely, only time will tell.

All that you've heard about the show is true. As usual, the Misfits cranked out some impressive shit. I wasn't to keen on the new singer but now I'm a changed man. It's like he was born to be a Misfit. Talked with the band before the show and really liked what I heard. It's almost impossible nowadays to find a band with so much talent, intelligence, and energy. I only have one complaint. Not about the Misfits but their so-called "fiends." The Misfits are still the Misftits. It doesn't matter who's singing, drumming, or farting. Why can't people realize that Glenn didn't make the Misfits. The Misfits made Glenn. Don't misunderstand, I like the old stuff, but the new stuff is just as good if not better. Everyone would realize that if they could just see them on stage. Losing Glenn didn't hurt the Misfits, It allowed them to grow. Last but not least WHO CARES IF THE MISFITS ARE ON MTV? A true fan would want to see or hear them any way they could. And maybe, just maybe those poor MTV zombies will learn a little something about real music.

Next:The show in atlanta 8/24/97 I went to the show in atlanta and it was AWSOME!Michael's voice(what I could here of it) was better than danzigs live.The show started off with two local bands that ruled.Then they uncovered the drum set and did a check on noise levels for the guitars and bass.Then chud showed up behind the set and they went in to Dr phibes.Michael came out with the straight jacket and top hat and stage dived into the crowd.Then he was thrown back on stage and went nuts getting the jscket off,well just untied his arms,cause he sang AP with the jacket on.They played like the first 5 songs off of the new album and then played static age and TV casualty.Later on when they played Mommy,He pause in the break and said thanks for coming and introduced a guy and a girl.The guy asked the girl to marry him on stage.Then they finished mommy.They did requests and one of them was SHE.They called for all girls to come on stage.Two of my friends went up on stage.One of my friends sang with Jerry.The rest of the girls moshed on stage.Jerry did a great show.doyle is the all time live punk guitar god.Being a guitarist I watdched him like a hawk and he blew me away on how he played stuff.They even played vampira.After the show michael came out first and signed my cd booklets and ticket and my 97 glow go skull tshirt.Jerry did the same.He asked what I thought of static age and I said It rules.Then he said what did I think of the new one.I said it rules also.Then he said that AP is his favorite.Then he patted me on my shoulder and went to the winnebego.Doyle signed my stuff also.But I think he was worn out cause he didn't say a word!Chud was no where to sign stuff.Before the show chud was mackin' with chicks and Jerry had to call him to the bus to finish his workout.Well that is all I can remember for now.

I've been reading this thing for about 3 years and have yet to see a long period of time where no one got pissed off and flew off the handle about something. Sounds like for it to happen Mark would have to start censoring, and I have a feeling he's got better ways to spend his time than reading every post and deciding what should go in and what should be cut. I'm sure a lot of us would like to see posts from Jerry, Doyle, CHUD, and Michale but going from what I read I don't think it's ever going to really happen, unless they realize some people are just gonna' be idiots no matter what and ignore those people.

Then, another roadie after the show informed us that the show would be at the Trocadero in Philly. I don't know but i'd trust the first guy more. Second, I am looking to press 7" vinyl probably about 500 copies, of my and some other local bands. Can anyone tell me some good sources, i can't find any.

They aren't REAL punk. Punk started in the 70's with the Pistols, the Clash, and of course, MiSfiTs...And it died with the MiSfiTs and other bands...Why? Because there wasn't a need for it. Scott, the owner of Max One Records, hosts "punk" shows all the time. We discussed the current state of "punk" and the current MiSfiTs stuff. Back then, there were mainly poppy, structured rock songs, all full of happiness and glee...Then came the brash, 3-chord punks with attitudes, cheap instruments, and rebellion from the norm. Punk nowadays: Rich kids playing cheap instruments wearing cheap clothes, playing 3 chords (EVEN WHEN THEY CAN PLAY GOOD!!! YOU CAN PLAY DETAILED, INTRICATE SONGS AND STILL BE DIY), and don't forget playing happy-go-lucky, silly tunes. They fail to realize, you can be the most bad-assed band and still be "punk" or idependent. "Punks" nowadays are meerly reliving a time they weren't around to enjoy...(Neither was I, I'm 17) But it's so silly because they could do so much more, so much better, and still be anti mainsteam, anti-corporate...so sad... As for AP....Scott and I agree that all the evilness and rudeness has sucked out to make it "mainstream friendly". The moment I first heard DUHBs, I knew that was the radio-friendly ear-candy. I still like AP, but it can never be my favorite...I'm so sad....I'd love to talk to Jerry and Michale (How is his name spelled? I've seen it spelled four different ways!)

I couldn't have said it better myself. (Although that could be because I was educated in California, and we DO have the worst, if not second to worst, education in the US.) But seriously, ALOT of you are taking this the wrong way. I mean, if MTV ACTUALLY does play a Misfits video, you think it'll be during the day or even prime time? That's VERY doubtful. This "genre" of music the Misfits fall under is "not popular" right now, so MTV won't touch it with a ten foot pole. (At least not when it's beloved viewers/rating givers are watching) I think the ONLY time will see it is REAL late at night, POSSIBLY even on 120 Minutes. Than will hear Matt "I'm the King of Music Trivia" Pinfield talk about the band like their something new, not one that's been around for 20 years... Anyways, I doubt the Misfits will become any trendies "flavor of the month", and we'll still have our beloved Misfits too ourselves. If something WERE to happen where the Misfits DID indeed become the "cool thing" to like, it won't last that long. After a couple months of the trendies "loving" the Misfits, they'll dump them quicker than Vanilla Ice, and move on to their next "flavor". Wow, I created my own pun, albeit dumb. If the Misfits get some new fans out of this, than more power to 'em. Out of those people, the "REAL" fans will stick with them LONG after MTV moves on to whatever else is "cool". Hope that made sense. Put it to rest.

It's basically a multi-functional piece of general resistance based equipment. The weights (therefore resistance) can be altered depending on which muscle area you're working on. This is basically a hand portable 'gym' and works on the premise of most regular gym equipment which uses the pin method of varying the weight lifted. There are also regular freeweights on the bus. At home they just use a regular gym. I did hear that they were hoping to take a portable gym out on the road but they didn't have it in the UK. Jerry & Doyle tend to work out daily while Chud and Michale just do it as and when. When I spoke to Doyle about his schedule he just shrugged and said he'd basically always been in shape and just worked out to relax (and to help with his back also). Michale told me he'd always wanted to be bigger and was trying pretty hard to get there with Doyle's help. If you look at the early pics of Michale, he has gotten a little bigger. As far as diet goes, they eat basic junk food crap on tour. I was really surprised to see Doyle eating a burger sandwich and the greasiest chips (fries) I've seen... I guess he has a mega-metabolism, unlike his brother :) Take care, Julian P.S. How's the ab work coming along Uncle Jack? :) ------------------------------ Date: 29 Aug 97 10:44:16 EDT From: GKichli1@mobile.bam.com Subject: whats up with dis??? >Subject: Doyle's Workout > >Does anybody know what Doyle's workout schedule is?

Or, would I be a polite Misfit who would explain to these poor misguided youth that it is a violation of the law for me to have sexual contact with a minor? Being other great Misfits fans, what would YOU do in these situations? Have you ever been one of these nymphomaniacal groupies yourself? Explain. Bonus Question: What is the etymology of the word "nymphomaniac" ? -Mordrid -- "Madness has no reason or purpose, but it may have a goal." -Mr. Spock http://www.mindspring.com/~soundtek ------------------------------ Subject: MEPHIST WALTZ - THE FINAL WORD . . . ? From: undead@juno.com (Bobby Steele) Date: Fri, 29 Aug 1997 11:52:56 EDT here's a quote I came across in the THRASHER interview with Glenn. Remember . . . these things are transcribed from tapes - so sometimes things get misunderstood in the transcription. It's obvious Glenn's talking about MEPHISTO WALTZ: G: I had written a song called Samhain. P: Was that originally a Misfits song? G: No, it was a song that I had written. There was lots of stuff I'd writting you just couldn't give the Misfits because they couldn't do it. I had a song, The Crystal Waltz, that I brought down to rehearsal and those guys butchered it. Most of the stuff Eerie plays, Jerry could never play in his wildest imagination. So THERE IT IS ! in Glenn's own words. THE MISFITS were never capable of recording this song. You might want to look further into this article. He goes on about how Jerry wasn't practicing anymore; and how Jerry and Doyle were blowing all the money on DRUGS.

I will also buy them for around 5-10$ depending on quality. I don't want originals just a taped copy on high grade {not crappy quality tape} Also if MTV even played the crimson ghost video which I don't think they ever will again it will be in the hours of night when noone wants to watch it anyways. So much for respect for the artist. I have been recording MTV for 3 days and havent gotten it yet.

Let me guess, Zero and Mac Daddy, you both read MaximumRockNRoll, right? Especially you Zero, you sound to me like one of those "LITTLE RICH KIDS WITH CHEAP CLOTHES" who discovered MRR and immediately took it on as your personal bible because it gave you thoughts to fill your little empty head with, right? I get a laugh out of guys like these two because they, to me, exemplify what's always been wrong with the punk scene; it claims to be the most open-minded/individual/etc. scene out there yet it's everything but! Anything not on a tiny indie label that actually has listenable production is not punk because MRR said so right? And what is so bad about metal? I'm 28 and not only a long-time metaller (the extreme thrashy varieties, not the candyassed hair band shite--Slayer, Motorhead, and Morbid Angel still rule OK in my book), but let it be known that I was listening to the Clash when they were still together, "London Calling" being my fave LP of theirs. This was when you, Mac Daddy, were probably still in grade school listening to New Kids or whatever, and before you were even born, Zero. So I am qualified to speak of what I think is "punk", I think. In short, punk is about playing good songs without excess, minimalist and catchy tunes that get to the point without taking forever. They don't necessarily have to be incredibly deep songs with amazing social relevance (or heavyhanded preaching like most of the "hardcore" bands these days who are really just bad heavy metal bands), just fun and good to listen to. But what counts is that the FEELING has to be there--you have to play it like you mean it, every note. This is why most of the new punk bands are as lightweight as they are. It's just a trend to them. Punk IS Rock N' Roll in as pure a form as can be. In short, it's not a religion or a sexual preference...just music. Which is unfortunately a cashable commodity and always has been--cope, kids. Just a little dopeslap upside the head, and hey--if it were not for metal you'd have nothing to react against/whine about and you would also be playing accordions and LOVING it. What say you to this, kiddies? BTW, Mac Daddy, your handle is an extremely cheesey hiphop reference, how punk is that? --CHRIS ____________________________________________________________________ Get free e-mail and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 29 Aug 1999 12:01:25 -0500 From: ghoul Subject: Jerks Another distantly related post: anyone have a clue as to the value of a Circle Jerks Wild in the Streets 12" on Step Forward records?

By the way, the gist of the entire review is that the evening was filled with Metallica rip-off bands: "The punk-rockin' Misfits have little to do with Metallica, and they seemed better [than the other bands] by comparison. Touting a new disc, American Psycho, the quartet (minus former lead singer Glenn Danzig) featured guitarists stabbing at their instruments with cartoonishly grand gestures -- not hard to do, given the uncomplicated nature of the chords. But the music was muscular, even melodious, and the band's showmanship strong. Shirtless and glistening with sweat, they were like gladiators in the pit, with black armbands and leather pants trimmed with belts and chrome buckles. They seemed tough as nails -- until someone in the audience threw lighted fireworks onstage. "If you don't like me, then move back," said singer Michale Graves. "None of this throwing cigarettes and ... [expletive] at me." That provoked a barrage of plastic bottles --making the gladiator-in-the-pit comparison seem all the more accurate." That actually passes as pretty favorable for the DMN. My two cents: great show, and much longer than I expected for a band playing second on a bill of four (about 50 minutes). I was disappointed by a couple of omissions (London Dungeon, Blacklight), but a solid set, nonetheless. Mike seems to be developing his own personality on stage, a critical matter if the band is to continue progressing post-Danzig. I enjoyed his antics, personally. The fiends hanging out after the gig were, as always, as friendly a lot as you're likely to meet, as were Jerry and the boys, who greeted, posed and signed for everyone who hung out. To top it all, I was trying to get my AP CD poster signed, and had Jerry and Doyle early. I then caught up to Chud, who I mistook for Michale (yeah, I'm REALLY cool). After he signed, I said "Thanks Mike," and Chud, without skipping a beat, said, "No, that's Mike over there. You better get him 'cause he's taking off." He then yelled to Mike to hold up because I wanted his 'graph. Probably 99 guys out of 100 would have taken an attitude after being called the wrong name. Chud's complete lack of self-importance really impressed me. They may become famous, but I doubt these guys are going to become "rock stars." Go see 'em.

It doesn't, or at least, you shouldn't let it. --- What are you CRAZY?! It will affect me in a big way! Misfits videos! I would love to see all I can of the Misfits. If I can't get to each and every show, I'd sure as hell like to see them on teevee, record their videos and watch them over and over. I'd love it if they actually put out an actually video of video footage, videos, maybe even their own horror flick, or whatever. rabid doctor http://www.mindpulse.com/users/redrum/ ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 29 Aug 1997 17:32:54 -0500 From: rabid.doctor@mindpulse.com Subject: Here is a thought.. those of you with telnet can telnet to annex.com -- once there you can apply for trial access.. it's a BBS you access and you get free trial access and they have internet.. then you enter all your info and you will be mailed back a code in email and you logon.. once there you'd be able to email minutes120@aol.com requesting they play Misfits videos and you can carbon copy it 20 times! So, if you do like I've done before you can send them 20 copies of a message saying "play misfits videos" or something 20 times in about 30 seconds, then you could do 20 more saying "please play the misfits" 20 more times in about 30 seconds..

I don't know if they make anything like that anymore, but if anyone in the world would, they'd be Fiends. If the band does actually make a video for MTV, hopefully it'll be in more of a fun spirit rather than trying to create "high art," because, in my opinion anyway, very few bands pull off that "video as high art" thing anyway - most embarass themselves (remember Meatloaf's comeback) but Tool makes cool ones...... ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 29 Aug 1997 19:09:21 -0400 (EDT) From: Arthur Rehak Subject: Cramps show or no?

TiM,sorry about the bobby steel thing, as you can see, he just ain't one of my favorites... nothin personal, Bobby. Jerry Hicks...thanks,I think. everyone has to rant every once in a while and this is one issue that I gotta stand my ground on.wash that shirt in the sink with cold water and woolite and let it hang dry. it will glow longer that way. Ttubretep... another thanks I think.as far as the gloves wal-mart has em every year,and halloween is just around the corner, and my advice is stock up. they go to shit pretty easily Neil McAllister. well, arent we just the supreme being. I realize that my post may have been a little rash, but hey, it is an important issue. dont like it, fuck off. I personally liked american housewife better,mr.findlay. a good sense of humor is greatly appreciated. Hey Zero! don't know how I feel about your post. I agree somewhat. the music is punk, because punk is a lifestyle rather than a musical hobby. also Mc5 and the Ramones are your original punkers. Brit punk didn't happen for a while, and one could pretty honestly say that the Fits and Black flag were on the tail end of that land slide( as well as a big part of what held it all togather for so long. ) as far as the clash goes, they are really pretty guilty of making radio friendly music themselves...can you say big audio dynamite- a largish mistake if I do say so myself. not to mention that the clash had ALOT of videos on mtvI.E.Rock the casbah, should I stay or should I go, another one bites the dust...and on and on. on that note, todays punk is indeed alot different from that which was, but its all about musical evolution. as you play more, you get better, and where you leav off, someone else is gonna pick up. good post. lets you think a little4 more than bitchin about how tall Jerry is. Well, I have probably just about worn my welcom thin with the size of this post, so I will leave now on a happy note.hope I didn't piss anyone off too bad with this Rant. nitey nite,boys and ghouls.

Look, it's ok to be on and watch MTV. It's ok to tour with big bands. It's ok to sell merchandise. As long as one doesn't step over the edge and start selling useless things like cameras and bubble baths (Spice Girls come to mind). I'm only 16 and am new to the Misfits and already I think they are truly great. Here's what I think, a band that has a following from the late '70's all the way to 1997 and years to come must be a truly devoted and kick ass band. You don't see many bands out there dressing up or making their own instruments anymore. One of the reasons for this is that those bands usually think "hmmmm, if we dress up or make our own stuff, then we'll look trendy." Well fuck that. Another thing, what's up with the trashing of different types of music? I listen to Type O Negative, Megadeth, Ramones, Sex Pistols, Korn and all the way to the realms of ska and some underground hip-hop. I say that if it sounds good, listen to it, no need to trash different types of music. That goes for bands too, Megadeth rule and you can't compare them to Metallica, these are two very very different types of metal. And about Mustaine being thrown out of Metallica, I think that was better for Mustaine and Metallica, they both play different types of metal, one is speed metal and the other WAS down and gritty "thrash" (i cringe at that word but I really can't think of anything else) metal. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 30 Aug 1997 02:07:16 -0400 (EDT) From: WantUDEAD@aol.com Subject: "i got some thing to say....." 1. do any of you find some fiends to be a little over obsessive with the MISFITS and their personal lives? i really don't see how it's any of our business how much doyle can press nor his or any other of the MISFITS' heights and/or weights. nor do i care what reason jerry is using this week for trying to make money off the MISFITS name to try to come up with some acceptable excuse for all you kids. god damn, this is their career. there is NOT a fine line between selling out and just plain trying to live and support your family. there is a great difference between the two. selling out would be to preach D.I.Y. for as long as your existence and then signing to warner brothers and letting them control your band's future. which by the way, i've never once seen the MISFITS say "D.I.Y. or die." then there's the real world, doing whatever you gotta fucking do for money, be it ever so miserable and lame. maybe once some of you kids become adults and mommy and daddy stop supporting you and you have to get real jobs (meaning not at the mall) working 40 hours or more a week for shitty medical benefits and a shitty salary trying to support yourself and maybe a family too, you will understand this difference. then maybe, just MAYBE you'll see why jerry is really trying to do this for the money and can accept the fact that a 40 year old man has to do what he's got to do for a living because he has no other fucking choices anymore! but then, maybe that's just silly, stupid me......... 2. someone made a super good point about mtv and the MISFITS. i'd like to credit that person, but i forget who it was and don't really feel like going back to look. the MISFITS isn't exactly the type of band you'll find on mtv too frequently. let's face it, there is great doubt in my mind that mtv would even play the DUHB video on 120 minutes. it's just not mtv quality, if you can say any of that junk is quality......... i think it has something to do with the conspiracy between forms of mass media. example: if you put on the radio and mtv at the same time, i'd bet anything that they are both playing the same song, unless of course mtv is having their michael jackson weekend and keep showing thriller and the making of thriller 30 times over, or even better those lovely real world marathon's. i'm sorry, but just because you play radiohead or coolio in the background of everyone's bitching doesn't exactly make it qualify as music television to me........ 3. i truly doubt that the MISFITS will come back to philly like EVER! unless truely necessary. when they first played in philly in may of 96, philly gave them mad props! which was a good reason why they came back to philly for halloween. halloween, the MISFITS were treated fairly decent. so they came back in june and the crowd just shit on them. jerry was saying all before the show, "oh yea, philly's becoming the new home of the MISFITS" or something to that effect how philly was always giving them mad props and shit, then stupid ass holes in the crowd starting throwing shit and totally disrespecting the MISFITS. i wouldn't blame the MISFITS if they never came back to philly ever again, it was very disappointing that so many ass holes could rally like that in one place, none the less, a MISFITS show...... 4.sorry, but i got to throw this in: BOXCAR, GUTTERMOUTH, and TEN FOOT POLE at the unitarian church in philly, 22nd(?) and chestnut st. september 28th radness...... and also i heard a possible rumor of AGAINST THE GRAIN and AGNOSTIC FRONT at maxwell's in hoboken, nj september 8th. if true: more radness........... 5.is it true MISFITS are only gonna tour with SICK OF IT ALL for like a week? that sucks, i really love those SOIA guys, pete's fucking sexy. when they are touring with SOIA, anyone know where exactly???? like east coast possibly, i hope and pray?????? especially somewhere between dc and ny would be really convenient, anybody got any pull on this decision? *cough*cough* mark? since you are like they're best friend or something..... ok, i'm done babbling for now. i apologize now for any grammatical and/or spelling errors. ebonics is my first language, not english, so, i'm sorry. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 30 Aug 1997 11:01:03 -0700 From: Hk Subject: El paso show!! Whats up fiends, I saw the Misfits in El Paso Texas last night and they kicked major ass!!!! the show was killer with the crowd going crazy from the opening strings of "phibes" to teh last chorus of "doomsday". The best part tho was meeting and hanging out with the band.. I was in the front talking to John Grim and once he figured out who I was(I had talked to him before) he told me to go to the "winny" so I could meet the guys.. They are all just as cool/nice as every says..Jerry had me help him bring sodas to all the kids waiting outside to meet the band,and everyone in the band took the time to meet with the fans..I talked with jerry chud and mikey the most doyle was in the shower and then spent most of the time watching a video of the show from the night before. I dont care what anyone says Mikey is a good guy we talked about how he joined the fits and he said he was recording in the same studio where jerry was working on the Maxs Kansas city tapes when he heard he needed a singer.Then he just kept buggint Jerry untill he gave him a chance.. Believe everything you here about how cool these guys are its true.. The highlights of the show:the haunting,day of the dead,hate teh living and playing catch football with the misfits in the parkinglot by their Winebago.. If you get the chance to see them dont miss it they are a great band and an even greater bunch of guys..

Also AP probably isn't even in the top 200 selling cd charts (some one correct me if i'm wrong) so why would mtv take a chance on it. also they don't play anytthing thing that isn't rap/techno (it's the next "big thing")/or "alternative" (which to them is the wallflowers and bush) ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 30 Aug 1997 17:13:01 -0400 (EDT) From: KramerPunk@aol.com Subject: Megadeath/Misfits at El Paso on August 29 A couple of my friends say they saw Glenn Danzig with the misfits at the end of their set.

I don't often see young kids running around with pentagrams etched into their foreheads screaming 'Norse Gods arise!' in dumb monster voices either.-- HEY! That is Scandinavian BLACK Metal, NOT Death metal.... Damn, your lucky to get MTV europe... have you seen the new Cradle of Filth? And about MTV... I mean, some of you think that if MTV plays the Misfits, they will be the next Hanson or something... If MTV does play DIG UP HER BONES in heavy rotation (which is HIGHLY unlikely), they probably will get as big as, say, White Zombie (and the poseur rate for that band is not THAT bad)... They will not be as big as Green Day because Green Day was very marketably and, er, "poppy", and the Misfits certainly do not have that sound of pop-punk that is marketable (damn, i know Green Day or Offspring fans here are gonna tear me apart....)

I just thought I'd tell ya'll(jesus I'm Texan) about my night it has dick to do with the misfits, so if your not interested, move on and save yourself the trouble. Tonight was my first night as the newest bouncer at the atomic cafe nightclub. I have been bouncing since just after high school, so this was nothin new.until I started walkin the floor( makin the rounds, or "treading") when the headlining band started playing. the name of the band is fuckemos. a little history. Emos is a bar owned by Jeff Pinkus, a really nice guy that just happened to play for a little band called the butthole surfers. Fuckemos are all the bartenders and bouncers with one iota of musical talent that no longer work at emos for reasons undisclosed. Fuckemos plays a really specific type of music called drunkrock. well antway all was cool until skinny ass little guy A trys to destroy Jolly green punkrocker B via sticking his face in jolly greens stomach and reaching around him to punch him in the kidneys. ( not exactly a smart attack, but one can clearly see he was new at this) well anyway, jolly green ( who is about 6'5 I suppose) is obviously not in the mood, so he grabs skinny ass and looks at me ( I swear he was smiling) to remove the offending idiot. I happily obliged, seeing as how punching someone five times bigger than you in the kidneys isn't the best way to start a conversation. I grab skinny ass under the arms and began pushing him out of the crowd and towards the door. no problem, right? skinny ass weighs all of about 110 pounds soakin wet and he's reeaal drunk.Arlo weighs about 200 dry and had a schlitz about two hours ago because the iced tea pitcher was empty and I don't dig on austin water. cake, right? WRONG about the time we clear the crowd, skinny asses buddy, smaller that skinny ass, grabs me and gets in my face. o.k., skinny ass and company are goin out still no big deal. been there, done that. arlo , with skinny ass under one arm and skinnier ass under the other is walking towards the door when arlo is suddenly wearing a really pointy backpack. it would appear that skinny asses girl, psychotica the knapsack found all that skin in my left armpit offensive and tried to remove it via fingernails. now up until this point, I was pretty cool about this deal, but if I carried on like this, I was gonna look like one of those clown bikes at the circus by the time I reached the door and I was beggining to get a little pissed.I grabbed skinny ass by his shirt and pinned him to a pole, pinned the other guy to the same pole and began dislodging psycho backpack girl via shaking her off. about that time, all hell broke loose. Ivan, one of the bartenders sees me draggin people like so much corn and decides to help. hip hop guys decide to help skinny ass. the result is Ivan putting ME in a full nelson and dragging me from the fray. while Ivan is doing this, skinny ass slaps me lightly on the cheek and hauls ass outta the club. at this point, I was considering quitting just so I chase him down and show hiw just what waffle treads do to a skinny backside. then back pack girl comes up screamin cause she hit her head when she hit the floor and she wants my nuts for garnish in her next martini. but instead of attacking me, she gloms onto Ivan and does her best tornado impression. I didn't know a shirt could come off a man that fast without his wanting it gone.any way, we settled her down, cleared the mike tysons out and enjoyed the rest of the show. I just pulled a little piece of fingernail outta my pit. I'm going to bed now. thanks for listening to me whine, Arlo 2.1.76. ------------------------------ From: "Redneck" Subject: WHAT A KILLER 2-day Vacation in LODI!!! Date: Sat, 30 Aug 1997 23:30:05 -0400 Hey FIENDS!!!!!!!!!!! I just returned home from a 2-day excursion into the stomping grounds of the Misfits, and I must say it was a smashing success! Way too much to get into here, but I knew it would be a good trip from the moment I saw the guy sitting across the room from me in Burger King.. he was extremely helpful in helping me find the places I was looking for around town. So here's a big thank you to Frank Ducoat!!! Next, I made friends with the local police in both Lodi and Saddlebrook. If you are ever in town, Look up Lt.Vincent Caruso of the Lodi Police. He was also a great help. Remembere kids...the police are your FRIENDS!! I met a guy named "Charlie D" who also showed me a few places of interest and mentioned a band named SARDONICA. If you haven't seen/heard them, check em' out. they opened for thr Misfits in State College, PA in october of 96.They are from the Lodi area as well. Lodi was all in all a pretty friendly town, despite my initial impressions of it. If you can't navigate very well, stay out of that town! I also visited the high schools....the original high school is now the middle school (right Mark K.?), and a new building has been built for the high school. There will be plenty of pics on my page as soon as I can get someone here(locally) to assemble it for me, since i dont do my pages... I also ventured to Vernon, where all you fiends know the address of the fiend club is, and it was a nice sleepy little town. A nice place to visit. Lots more to tell, but it is easier to just post the pictures and field questions from you all. Remember this..if you go in search of this stuff like I did, leave it there for the next guy. A couple of the sources I looked in were badly mangled, as someone had tron the pictures out of the books. Don't be a pest either by stalking the band members' families or any of that rude shit. They are people like you and me, and like their privacy. You can get what you want without being a dick. I did, plus next time I go back, I have 2 places to stay,instead of shelling out bucks for a motel room. Enuff for now... Thanx again Mark for all the info!

I went to the san Antonio show and it was AWESOME! First the downside, my friend who was supposed to go with me stood me up, I've been in a shitty mood for about the past month, I didn't have a car or money- i could only afford a pack of cards, and lastly I'm sorry but I don't see the logic of starting up a pit at a show that costs $23.50, seems to me to be more of a recreational thing so do it at a $5 dollar concert and don't waste my money. Other than that it was an outdoor concert and hot as fuck. My positioning-to the right of the pits was such that I could see the show unfucked with and still have a good view, but unfortunately, when the band threw all their stuff out to the audience, all of it landed in the pit - which only consisted of about 15-20 guys....no biggie. Okay now the good side; yeah I'm finished whining. There was a cool guy from the bible there, I think he was w/his little bro, he had long hair and I think the Jerry Only shirt. I never got your name, whoever youare, I was the guy with the baggy black courdoroy shorts. Concert was cool. I had no complaints about the music - Michale was a little hard to hear, but good enough for me. Unfortunately no straightjacket on this one-or tophat, they seemed to say that it was too hot. But it was awesome. Jerry kept piping in now and then, only a couple 123's, and Doyle never looked up from the guitar. Michale threw a water bottle at Doyle and they were laughing and fucking around onstage - I thought that was the coolest thing of the whole day...well maybe except for the fact that Jerry and CHUD came out from around the back of the venue and signed autographs. They signed my CG shirt and my news article about them in the San Antonio papaer, I'll e-mail it to mark to post if he wants... Tried talking to them both, but it was awkward trying to start a conversation when everybody else is just screaming "Misfits are the best band ...EVER!!!"-plus there was a distinct feeling like a deer caught in the headlights. I mumble, and they didn't seem able to hear me after the show, so it took me like 2 minutes to tell Jerry that I was in the Bible. As soon as I did, I got this grin that made me almost pee my pants and he asked me if I was gonna review the show, I said "heck yeah" so here it is. Oh yeah, some dude made a Doyle action figure!! It looked real, misfits in red, they gave you his guitar. It was awesome! It looked like it should have had a Kenner sign on it or something. :) I wish I could remember more, but it was kind of a blur. Set list was: Dr Phibes, American Psycho, Speak of the Devil, shit this is hard.... well, it's easier to remember what they didn't play: no Bullet, Come Back, American Nightmare, Astrozombies (wait, maybe they did), NOTLD, Teenagers from Mars, Children in Heat, She, Horror Business, or All Hell Breaks Loose- guess I'll have to wait for a show where they're headlining. old stuff they played was: Static Age, Tv Casualty, Last Caress, 20 Eyes, Hybrid Moments, 138, Mommy, London Dungeon, Some Kinda Hate. I could have missed a few, but I think that's it. They were allowed 45 minutes and they were supposed to play 26 songs. So I probably missed a few. Halloween: I talked to CHUD and he said that it was going to be 2 days in Cali. He was also talking about a tour with Sick of it All. All in all, the best big concert I've ever been to. I had a great time. Jerry and CHUD are 2 of the coolest guys ever! And the question I kept asking myself "Did you ever think you were going to see the fucking Misfits?"

Now in all the promotion I saw(which wasn't much)the Misfits were second billed.However,toward the end of Machine heads set (which was very good.The best out of th three times I've seen them)Rob announced "coming up next a band so big they use hockey pucks for guitar picks, THE MISFITS!" Huh? Aren't they supossed to play after COC? Maybe COC dropped off the tour.Then I looked to the right of the stage and there was Woody of COC. So sure enough after MH finished they started setting up C.H.U.D.s' kit. What's the deal? Anyway The Misfits played next. Michael didn't have his straight jacket but he did have the cool stitches painted on his body. It was amazing. I wouldn't think one of the best shows I've ever seen cold only be 45 Minutes but they proved me wrong.They played a few songs that I heard they weren't playing(London Dungeon,Return of the Fly,Some Kinda Hate)and Michael came up to the front of the barricade several time(much to securities annoyance). It was incredible. Also,Jerry answered my question when he said"for all the ladies,COCk's on next." I also liked when after From Hell..Mike pointed out that It was currently the same temperature in hell.(ANYONE who knows south Texas in August at 5:30 Pm knows what Mike was talking about.) So after they finished,I bought my Trading cards and walked out. As i walked out I saw an army of Misfits shirts heading into the gate and Heard many "What the fuck do you mean they already played?" When I got out I headed back to back stage to see if the guys were there. I asked the guy "do you know if the Misfits are coming out?" And he told me"No, they're not coming out. They're going to stay on their bus." Like he was their fucking keeper or something. Then I heard a roadie talking to an attractive blond woman,telling her that Someone (most likely Megadeth) were trying to avoid the Misfits,so it was up to security and roadies to keep them apart. So even though I do like some of their music.Fuck Dave Mustaine. You would think getting kicked out of Metallica would have taught him not to be such a dick. I also want to thank everyone who posted on Friday for the most intelligant Bible in ages. No petty bullshit.I'm hoping that has all moved to alt.music.danzig.let that be the childrens sand box.Also,I'm working on a Misfits Central style site for the Dickies.If you have anything to offer(articles,picture,lyrics)or a copy of the Dickies-Gigantor 7in to tape for me or sell.please contact me.

Saw the misfits for my second time last night right here in tucson... yep, that's what i said.. tucson!! It was so sweet, as usual right... like a misfits show could have any other outcome. openin bands were hell driver and N17. Neither was very good, and i think the singer from N17 has an identity crisis. kinda thought he was marilyn manson or somethin... besides that, they didn't even look like they were playing their instruments! enough bout that crap.. the misfits kicked much ass, but it was a shorter set than i got to see in LA, so we didn't get alot of the classic songs. Someone actually requested braineaters! hahaha... Club was pretty small, so we were like right on top of the misfits feet, plus you could actually see Chud from time to time behind that monster of a drum set he's got. Smaller venue = smaller crowd, so i actually got to meet the misfits this time, shake thier hands, autographs, etc.. and it only took like 5 minutes in line.. hah. i didn't even know they were playin here until like 3 hours before the show either, and it was totally by chance that i found out. i was walkin around my dorm to some other ppl's room and i had my legacy of brutality shirt on. some chick goes 'hey misfit, you goin to the show tonight?' after the initial disbelief, well, you know the rest.. :) perhaps i should just wear my misfits shirts every day of the week??

It's so frustrating reading the bible, and hearing about the Pistols and The Clash, and all the other Brit punk bands starting punk.... SORRY ALL, you better wake up and smell the coffee. The first "real" American punk band was probably the Ramones. For the criteria of "real" I am including touring outside of thier area, and using the label. Although bands like the Stooges, The MC5, the Zombies and a few others were really the roots of the music. Most of them did not like the punk label because of the prison connotation, dig? The first truly "hard core" punk bands (and the ones I think the Misfits owe a big tip o' the hats to) were Crime (SF band that truly kicked ass,and was really scary) and Fear (Lee Ving was a god) and the Dead Boys (to this day I still think that Glenn wishes he were Stiv palying CBGB's). You could even argue that a lot of the early surf and hot rod bands were punk, hell even some of the early r'n'r pioneers sneered at convention (Gene Vincent for instance). But remember kiddies, PUNK, like rock and roll is a purely American concoction. The flavor the Brits added was cool to be sure. But it started long before Johnny was sneering (and Malcom was making dough). Don't get me wrong the 'Fits were on the scene early. But they were by no means fathers of the movement. They probably were familiar with the Dictators, The NY Dolls, Ramones, and these bands probably influenced them a great deal. Far more than the Brits did. Especially in the NJ area.

Subject: THings can only get better... Hello fiends... well i see that a lot of you are searching for that Dig up her bones 7". I should let you know that it will be a while till you find one. See when every one was searching for the advanced promo for AP, i notised that none of the companies that sell items like this were getting it. Actually i did not see the promo till after the actual release of the LP. It might be that they (Caroline) is holding back on who they send them too. they must realize that sending them to record stores will only result in the 7" being sold. Though once i see one for sale, i will let everyone know as i have for other Misfits, Samhain and Danzig items. Well the Lithograph is out as you know. I just got mine on Saturday and its a nice piece. The paper is a very heavy stock as i had informed you of earlier, and they are signed and numbered. they are perfect for framing. though as for myself i have three other items ahead on the let's pay for framing, but i forgot to go and do it. Chris will be back on line this week and you can talk to him via e-mail about making your purchase or if you would like to put in your pre order on the Doyle lithograph. Pat, did you know that Mark's real name was Mark Only, just like what they wrote in the paper last friday here in Miami, Jerry and Doyle Only, the last two original members of the Misfits. Mark is really their little sister ;) just joking Mark, though i think you do remember that winning flame from the contest last year. I think that guy got the 5+ hours of live Misfits, Samhain and Danzig footage from me. Yes if you are new, we do have some interesting contests here. though i did not run any this summer, there will be the Horror trivia contest the entire month of October again. Dave, you are looking for a Cough/Cool, your best bet is to contact Nikki Parasite from the band the Parasites. His real name is Dave and he had one the last time he moved in CA. the price was not that high either. the other person who had one left that i knew of was Curtis of Taang Records, though he might have desided not to sell.

How dare some people tell the Misfits what to do with their lives. This just pisses me off. This stupid, narcissistic elitism that certain people are the only ones "cool" enough to listen to the Misfits and that if someone gets into them at a later date they're somehow posers or Johnny-come-latelys. Well, get over it. Anyone who wasn't there in '83 or before is a Johnny-come-lately in my book, and that includes me. If you want to take that further, if you weren't there with Jerry and Glenn and Manny, then you're a poser. So that makes all of us fiends and even Misfits members posers. See how downright stupid that is? Now.. most of the people bitching about the Fits being on MTV are the same fuckers who bitched when Jerry sued Glenn for the rights to perform the Misfits material and to use the name. How can you call yourself fiends? You sit there and badmouth them for making a video, for getting a singer other than Glenn, and playing and touring again. You want to keep the Misfits as your own pet band to be shared with others at your discretion. If anyone else dares to listen to the Misfits without YOUR approval then they're not really fiends, they're just being trendy. You sit there and badmouth them for making money and how they spend it. Who cares that the only one making money off the Misfits for YEARS was Glenn, who only cared about the Misfits as backup cash and would leave the room every time someone asked about the Misfits (yet who had no problem joining Metallica onstage to sing three Misfits songs)? I'm not gonna get into finance wars, and I think the other ex-Fits should be compensated, but I'm damn sure not gonna hold the fact that the current lineup is making money against them. I'm also not going to turn my back on the band I have loved for the last 12 years because they're gaining commercial success. If you do you're just another elitist snob, plain and simple. I got into the Misfits in 1985. I never got a chance to see them in anything other than bootleg videos. I'm glad they are recording new songs and touring unlike so many other bands that reunite only to play the same shitty songs (Sex Pistols) and then ride off into the sunset. I'm sick of people whining about who is selling out and shit... It's so juvenile. The Misfits are doing the same thing they've always done. The only thing that has changed is that they sound better. I hope they get huge and take over the world. I want to see a Crimson Ghost flag flying over the White House and Jerry Only in the Oval Office. ~Pudge, who's keepin' it really evil. ------------------------------ Date: Mon Sep 1 18:22:26 1997 From: Jon Jorden Subject: Dig Up Her Bones 7" Auction hey there. my friend has a copy he wants to sell. auction now! by the way, they're the same versions (possibly radio edits?) but the packaging is really nice (custom labels, etc).

It will affect me in a big way! Misfits videos! I >would love to see all I can of the Misfits. I was actually responding to the people who seem to think that appearing on MTV is some kind of mortal sin. Personally I'd also like to see what the Misfits come up with in terms of their use of the video medium, after all, that's one area where there can be no true comparisons with the original Misfits as nothing on the scale of the current promos were ever made until now. Some people will complain whatever the situation. If Puff Daddy is on for 23 hours and 55 minutes and then they play a Misfits video people cry 'Jerry's a traitor'. If the Misfits played for 23 hours and 55 minutes and then MTV played one Puff Daddy video people would say 'Get him off there, what's he doing on OUR channel?' You can't win. >GKichli1@mobile.bam.com >What is up with dis?? Do you plan on putting out a Doyle work out >video??

As 3/4 of the Misfits are either married or have a girlfriend, the REAL question here is whether you believe in being faithful or not. I can't speak for the Misfits but taking the human race in general I reckon we're looking at about a 98% rate of people who wouldn't be. Just for the record though, I've NEVER even once seen any of them fool around with any female fan that has turned up at a show. In fact, whatever you think of them, it's uncontestable that they show their fans nothing but respect when they're with them. >Rblack8201@aol.com >very few bands pull off that "video as high art" thing anyway - most >embarass themselves (remember Meatloaf's comeback) but Tool makes >cool ones......

Subject: Misfits in Po-Town, and other shit What's up fiends. The Misfits are playing in Poughkeepsie, NY, with local ska/punk band Ninety-Nine Cents and mystery band on September 14 (that's a week from Sunday.) Is this part of some tour? I don't suppose there's any chance the mystery band will be H20 again?... As far as Misfits touring with SOIA, I heard last April at the Agnostic Front show in Poughkeepsie that THEY were going on tour with the Misfits and Rancid, also, but since then whenever I mention it no one else seems to have heard of this. The Static Age "reissue" is just awesome and the best record I've ever bought. Hearing those songs without all the bullshit that killed them on LOB is unbelievable. I bought the vinyl issue, not knowing it was coming out on cd too, but I actually think it's btter that way. Did anyone else notice that they thanked Sal B, the Sardonica guy? I saw the Misfits on June 28 in Providence and they said they were shooting the video for DUHB, but I guess from what everyone's saying on here it's not being played. If so, look for me flipping off the camera at the end. Was anyone else at this show? Was the video filmed at every show on that tour and they're just going to choose the best one? I can't imagine why they'd want to shoot a video in Providence. Anyway I'm done for now, and glad to be back on the bible. patrick the poughkeepsie fiend "this isn't really death* this isn't really life, this isn't really anything i think i like" *-this isn't really sex? ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 2 Sep 1997 13:15:54 -0400 (EDT) From: ChristoTer@aol.com Subject: Stuff Fiends, First of all I hope everyone calls their local radio station and dedicated "Dig Up Her Bones" to Princess Di.

This post includes my findings at a store recently, replies to the last bible, and a question about Souls Ablaze. Yep, in that order... 1) I went to a store called Hot Topic today. They have a SHIT LOAD of cool band shirts (Misfits, Black Flag, DK to name a few). Okay. I saw this shirt that said "Dogpile Horror Business". It had the Crimson Ghost (small) on the middle of it, with "Dogpile" written above it, and "Horror Business" below. What the fuck is that?? There were some other shirts made by Dogpile around it, but none of those had Misfits-relation or ANY band for that matter. Anyone know what that is? That store NEVER carries bootlegged T-shirts, so I was confused. 2) My replies... First, rabid.doctor@mindpulse.com wrote > email minutes120@aol.com requesting they play Misfits videos and you can > carbon copy it 20 times! LOL!! That's the spirit. Although I watched 120 Minutes last night with no luck. What I do is just turn the sound down, and whenever Matt Pinfield is on the screen talking, turn it back up real quick to see what video's on next. Of course you end up seeing TONS of HORRIBLE videos, and must get immediate help from your NEAREST Poison Control Center. Then Ricky impressed us all with > hi, my name is ricky (19) i've been a misfits' fan since i was in 8th > grade. act ually, they're my favorite. and THEN also crapped > i bought the american pshyco cd. i wasn't very impressed, but o'well. i > think graves sings like a faggot. He "sings" like a faggot? What EXACTLY does that mean? How does one of homosexual preferance commonly sing? Please let this list know. With ALL the homophobes out there, you MUST warn them so they can STAY CLEAR of any bands with singers that AREN'T straight. Third - Arlo, no offense, but the bouncer story was the FUNNIEST shit I've read on the Bible. EVER. Also, your opinion on Mr. Steele is fine with me. No prob. Last, but not least - WantUDEAD@aol.com - you summed it up PERFECTLY last post. Until you live life out on your own, you'll NEVER know how tough it REALLY is... Oh, I think that "phantom poster" was me... 3) Okay, I was thinking about buying some of the bootleg Misfits shirts from Souls Ablaze. Now, I was wondering the quality of those shirts. Has anyone out there ordered from them, and how were the shirts? I've boughten bootlegged shirts in the past, and they both fell apart somewhat. I know that with a $10 shirt, it'll be crappier than a $20, but HOW MUCH crappier are they? Any help would be aprreciated. Email me direct if you'd like.

They do a pretty kick ass cover of "13" by Glenn Danzig and "51st State" by New Model Army...saw them last week, great show, the singer is a nice guy too, got a free CD at the show with the help of a friend. Also, has this been brought up before? When I bought the Walk Among Us CD a long time ago, it came with a picture of the group but according to some pictures I saw in the Central, the lineup is Bobby Steele and Joey Image in the picture and in the CD, it says Doyle and Googy. Is this regular or what? I know it's Bobby and Joey in da picture but why does it say otherwise? Warm Regards, Nick Fiend ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 2 Sep 1997 23:45:06 -0500 From: tes777@netrox.net (Tammy S.) Subject: Some of the good stuff... Hello fiends... well first for today is an issue that seems to have come up once again. I have received a couple e-mails from fiends who feel that they were ripped off with a bootlet First press Bullet 7". Now I know that most of you that have read Misfits 101, know the detailing on that record. Though as i had mentioned with Who Killed Marilyn there are Japanese bootlegs that are almost identical to the real thing. The only real difference was the color on her eyes and lips, some of the etchings on the vinyl are missing and the size of the sleeve of the bootleg is smaller. The only answer i can think of aside from showing the record to Glenn is to match the color red on the sleeve. This is what i will do, I will bring the sleeve to work tomorrow and match the color red on the Pantone color guide. Most press work or silk screen work used or uses that system. It is only recent that the system is used world wide (only cause it is part of the high end Graphic software that is used world wide). Japan has a different color system that is still used today. Once i get the color number all you need to do is is go to a local printer and ask to have them match the color on your sleeve with their copy of the Pantone Color wheel/Guide. If you want i can even send Mark a sample of the color for Misfits Central, though the color will look different from computer monitor to monitor, since each one is never calibrated the same. Mine should be real, only on the fact that Glenn signed mine. This has nothing to do with bragging. If Glenn says its a boot, its a boot and he will out right not sign the thing. That is from personal experience and a very embarressing one to say the least. Again here are the etchings listed in order on each side of the record: Side A: SP- 1001-A MISFITS RICH FLORES(The ICH in Rich is underlined from the right foot of the R) Side B: SP- 101-B MISFITS R.F. On side B, the circle around the C for C&P was hand drawn, since it is out of perportion, where as the one for side A is a tight circle around the C. To the guy with wanting the Value for the Circle Jerks LP, its $15-20, which is the price on most of their early LPs. The more valued item is the promo 7" from Golden Shower of Hits. that goes for $25-30. Ricky, not to shoot you down or flame you, but the two Black Flag 7"s you have are not first pressings. The first pressings for Nervous Breakdown and Six Pack, were never on color vinyl and the sleeves are black and white. the second pressings were still black vinyl with red and white sleeves. it was not till 1989/90 that the color vinyl 7"s were produced. to the person searching for the NOTLD movie shirt, there was a company in NY that sold that kind of stuff and had the shirt many years ago. i'm not sure if they are still in business, but here is the info: FantaCo Enterprises, Inc. 21 Central Ave., Albany, NY 12210. Phone # 518-463-1400 I have the catalog from 1991. Plus i had purchased several items from them too. that is it for now.

Bootlegs at Souls Ablaze are not of lesser quality. He just means that the designs are not "official" Misfits designs. They are his own creations. Official shirts are those that the Misfits also sell through the Fiend Club. The bootlegs are, however, done with the band's permission. mark ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 03 Sep 1997 13:41:26 -0400 From: Wolfsblood Subject: Trading with Rojo Just a note to all you fiends thinking about trading with Jason Rojo, if he has what you want, DO IT!

Although they don't really show Googy in the pics (I'll have to go take a closer look and email you personally later on) I'm pretty sure it's him on the LP. I know enought to know that that's neither Bobby nor Joey Image on the front cover, and it says pretty clearly on the back that it's Doyle and Googy playing on the record. Unless you mean that Bobby and Joey actually played on the LP...hmmm......Whatever, just thought I'd chip in. And Mac Daddy...I stand behind all I said because I felt I was making a valid point;you do sound like an MRR punk in the post I commented on. And as it happens I do not feel the urge to show how punk I am with lame email addresses like "semen1", my name does me just fine.

Date: Wed, 3 Sep 1997 21:19:29 -0500 Hey, its me. After a week long vanishing act, I am back. I had to write now becuase of the all the stuff happening on the bible and all the arguing. This post will be long so if you do not like it, please skip it and dont flame me. First off, the MiSFiTS being on MTV isnt a big deal guys. MTV is made to play music, now isnt it? Yes, most of the bands on there are crap but some arent that bad. I know it isnt "cool" to like stuff on MTV, but some bands are not that bad. Just because you put a video on MTV, doesnt mean you are selling out. IT means you are having a chance to show what you can do to lots of people, and if they like it, hell, more MiSFiTS fans. Is that a bad thing? Second off, we should be happy that the misfits are making music. Would you rather they dont do anything? Just sit around and do nothing and not make a single song? Im sure that would satisify some people, but the world is turning, and things change. The MiSFiTS have evolved. If a band doesnt evolve, it is repetive and boring. Give them credit for going out and taking shit that people on here give them. Could any of you do it? I sure as hell know I cant.... Let's face it, lots of people on here are being rude. You dont need to say fuck every two words or make fun of Jerry, Michael, Glenn or Bobby. They have played or are playing for the MiSFiTS. Can anyone on here besides Bobby say they played for the MiSFiTS. No, I don't think so. They were part of a great band and should at least get some of our respect. And as much as you make fun of them, they probably could get more women than any of us on here, so no matter how badass you think you are, remember that the people you diss are getting cheers from crowds and having fun. Are any of you doing that? The old people are right, this letter is getting shitty. I mean, this is a place for tribual shit, like what does doyle lift with and how much and what do they use for their hair. That is shit that could accualy benefit one of us if arises. Does anyone benefit from "Well Glenn is blah blah blah and Michael does blah blah blah purple monkey dishwasher." No, I don't. I don't think anyone else does. People want to read info, not people's flames. If you have critizim, say it with a bit of grace. Do not cuss every 3 words or diss on someone with dumb stuff. Have some info to back up your claims. You will be heard more if you do. Finally, we need to talk more about quality stuff, and get rid of this flaming. I love the MiSFiTS and i think this bible could be a lot of good if we all shape up and quit the kiddie stuff. We are all smart people and I think we can do it.

Alcoholocaust the venom in this posting is primarily for the MD/DC/VA bible listers. please skip if not applicable. y'know, i rarely post to the bible, and when i do it's usually just a list of upcoming gigs for my band, ADAM WEST. but i have to say that the majority of MD/DC/VA bible listers are lame. for those who weren't there wednesday nite, you missed a great show in baltimore with ADAM WEST and Alcoholocaust, two misfits bible bands playing together. now how often does that happen? one of the reasons glenn danzig doesn't like to talk about the misfits these days (and actually for the past 10 years, at least) is he says that back then nobody gave a shit. they never got super big crowds and certainly weren't very popular until after their demise. the point is: go out and see other bands! we all have something in common since we're all here for the misfits, so fucking support the smaller bands who play in your town or are touring through your town. don't wait for "alternative" or "college" radio or, even worse, MTV to tell who's *cool* enough to check out or which CD to buy. you never know which band you might see at a small club and never have that chance again. now that i'm done with that . . . the concert was at the funnel in downtown baltimore and was kindly put on by drew of Alcoholocaust. after ADAM WEST, and i don't mean to brag but's it's bloody true, kicked the shit outta the club with their set, drew invited me up to sing "i turned into a martian" with Alcoholocaust. it was the first time i had ever sung that song at full volume, let alone on stage. it was great and i would love to do it again. they rocked a great set and even played a newfits cover. since i'm not the biggest fan of "american psycho," i don't know the title of the song, but i think it was "day of the dead." anyway, you all missed it. if you were there, i apologize, but i want bible listers (notice how i don't use the word *fiends*? i hate that word) who come to ADAM WEST gigs to introduce themselves before or after a show. i'm a friendly guy and i tend to give records away to people who don't have enough money. i guess that's my vice. so thanks to all who were there, thanks to drew of Alcoholocaust, and thanks to the rest of you for being as apathetic as pet rocks. later to all the fuckheads?!? -- * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Jake Starr/ADAM WEST * Fandango Records * 1805 T Street, NW #A * Washington, DC 20009-7128 * (202) 483-0065 * e-mail: jyas@loc.gov * http://www.access.digex.net/~yield/adamwest.html * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ------------------------------ From: Jay Forness Subject: RIOT in Tompkins Square Date: Thu, 4 Sep 1997 09:46:50 -0500 Hey Fiendz, Finnally got off of my ass and ordered The Undead's "There's a RIOT in Thompkins Square" 7". I really dig the title cut. It's noisy and gritty and really captures the "Undead" sound I am glad to hear Bobby getting back to*. This seems to give a taste of a new direction Bobby seems to be leaning towards. Not that it deviates too far away, you can't help but to tell it's an Undead song. *I think some of the "essence" of the Undead was lost with the cleanliness of digital drums, etc. and it seems Bobby has recaptured that classic Undead sound. The live side I actually didn't mind listening to it. I reall don't usually care for live cuts, but these took me by surprise. Faster tempo and a decent live recording with a live band. Really cool. Now that Times Square is out of the game and with the reissue of "Dawn of the Undead" hopefully we'll be hearing more of the same caliber music form this and future releases (like the "Invisible Man" remix). Get it, buy it, live it, love it. I'll need to get motivated and get the "Destroy" 7" comp too... Anybody looking to dump a PURPLE STATIC AGE? I have a RED to trade or to sell to get $$$ for Purple.

Cause the music scene bites here and I'm getting bored. For all those who slag Bobby - he's an alright guy, I was iun a band that opened for the Undead once when I was fifeteen, and he wasn't pretentious in the slightest and was super cool about giving me a couple of records. Yes giving them away. I just get tired of reading everyone's bullshit on here - it's not as if a thing you fuckin say matters in the slightest to any of them- as it shouldn't. If entertainment ceases being a good time, why do some people stick around dragging eveyone elses shit down with them. The misfits still are and always have been the best band around. Fuck all the demon, what poster is on what wall on saved by the bell, money matters - none of our buisness- trivia - gossip -bullshit. I sware that sometimes you people sound like like my parents. I am interested in trading live audio and video with anybody. Does anybody know the deal with a record called "If you don't know the words why the fuck are you here" .

I recently bought two Misfits 8 by 10 Black & White promotional photos. One of which is the exact same picture that came with the promo WAU but instead of saying "Ruby Records" in the right corner it says "Plan 9." The other one was the same picture that is in the inlay for the WAU CD, it says "Misfits" in one corner (but not in typical monster letters) and "Plan 9" in the other corner. Are these from the 80's? Did anyone ever reproduce old promos? Are they worth anything? 2) Does anyone have any idea how much "The Freeze" "Guilty Face" (modern methods 18) 45 is worth. - The Gold Mine "alternative" price guide doesn't have a lot of the old school Boston punk stuff (i.e. The F.U.'s, Jerry's Kids, the Freeze, etc. etc.) 3)I'm still looking for an original "Cough/Cool" if anyone's selling. Tammy - I found out how to contact that Dave Parasite guy, thanks for the lead! Thats all, Dave T. evilive@tiac.net ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 5 Sep 1997 00:21:02 -0400 (EDT) From: "Daniel J. Jakel" Subject: SO LONG...... This will be a rambling post about various stuff, Misfits included of course. So skip it if you don't like to read. This will be my last post to the Misfits Bible. I haven't been much of a contributing member so this won't be some sad parting of ways. Blah! I was amazed however that like two weeks ago a small post of mine was the first post on that bible issue! I felt pretty special to be up there with the likes of Bobby Steele and Mark Kennedy. :) So anyway my account I got at Grand Valley State University last year will be deleted in less than 12 hours and I figured I will make the most of it. It's silly that people get angry over the dumbest things. This whole internet gives people something to vent their anger without any real consequences. Idle threats are common. I do it sometimes myself, but just when I need to be entertained. There's all this "punker than thou" shit going on. I say "Who gives a fuck?" Does it matter really? Do any of you people ever consider the fact that it doesn't matter? Do you sit there and just think for a moment? Maybe. So you like the Misfits, very cool. So does that mean you have to consider yourself punk? What the hell good does that do anyway? Who cares what else you listen to? Maybe the Misfits were punk, maybe they weren't. DOES IT MATTER? The music is all that matters, not the classification. The Misfits, in my opinion, are the best band ever. That's all that matters. Damn good tunes and you can listen to anytime, anywhere and shouldn't have to worry about what your pals or enemies may think of you because you do. I notice that a lot of people are out to prove something, for what reason I will never know. I get to see the Misfits for the 2nd time in my life this Sunday the 7th at the Intersection in Grand Rapids, MI. I've heard nothing but rave reviews about their concerts, and the one I attended last year is no exception. They put it all out for YOU people everytime they write a new song, book a new tour, or sign an autograph. For people to criticize them for anything is lame. Nobody's perfect. I cannot wait for this show. I don't care if they lose all power and play a capella, its gonna kick my ass. Now I am gonna plug myself for a bit. I am in a band/project thing basically with one other friend. Our band name is Sperm Count. We play shitty music, but have fun doing it. We may never make an album, we may never play live, we may never get a drummer. We're just having some fun with our ultra creative selves. If you wanna know a lot more about this band check out our web site at: http://www.grfn.org/~azrael There's a lot of information on who we are and what we're about. If you wanna send my bad self any email about anything, send it to Buskard@aol.com. Thanks for reading this, and you'll be damned if you don't check out that web site.

Excuse me,that leaves Dick Mustaine as the offended party. In case you don't know,it's a Megadeth Tradition to alienate at least one of the bands they're touring with. Past bands alienated by Megadeth include Aerosmith(who kicked them off after three shows)and Korn. I think that's why Megadeth started touring with four bands,that way even if they piss someone off they don't have to worry about not having an opening act. I'm sorry you missed the show.> > > -With lyrics that are dumb So song writing is not for everyone Yeah you're right.People like you shouldn't be writing songs. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 5 Sep 1997 00:34:22 -0500 From: tes777@netrox.net (Tammy S.) Subject: Clearing the way to the truth... Hello fiends... well as i had said i would match the color and i did. Its called Warm Red Uncoated 2X(double impression.) so all you need to do is find someone or go to a press or graphic house and match the color red on the sleeve. It did cross my mind that once i posted this that there might be some fiend that would be sick enough to use it and bootleg to rip off more fiends. Well guess what i can't happen. See, when i was looking over the color on the blood splat from Kennedy's head i saw something with using a strong loop. There is a second color or drag of the red that is lighter that can't be matched. it sticks out just enough to see it. That will never be reproduced, just like in Money today with those little strips that you can see when you hold it up to the light. I guess Glenn and Jerry knew what they were doing. I'm not sure which one did this but it is pure genius. Oh, there is one other catch to this whole deal and why it could never be reproduced. See the colors on the Pantone guide are updated once a year, and from time to time colors are discontinued. So it would be again impossible to match, oh and for the computer geniuses, forget it, there is not form of output that can be done with out still seeing the pixels with a loop. A good loop will run you $5 - $100. My 8X was $5 at a local photolab and others i have worked with can be bought through science catalogs. So in simple i would be really hard to rip off a fiend that is armed with this kind of knowledge. I do hope this solves the probles for the fiends with the Bullet problem. well i think i will cut short, plus since i got carried away with cleaning i can't seem to find the Record convention list. so that will return next week. I hope that all of you have a great weekend.

I rather doubt that Verotik would do that given the bad blood between Glenn and Jerry--I like their original titles though. A rather amusing bit of mindless fun they are most of the time, and yeah, the main theme is tits(nothing wrong with that!)...I do, however, recall reading in UGLY THINGS a couple of years back that SQUIRT mainman Doug Evil was to be drawing a Misfits comic with "UT" editor Mike Stax writing it. I've posted a couple times concerning this and no-one seems to know anything about it =(. I wish I could tell you more, mate...being a comic collector myself I REALLY want to see a Misfits comic come out sometime soon! Re: zerbonia's post concerning the Misfits and (e)M(p)TV, I'm inclined to agree. As disappointed as I was to hear they were indeed making a video, hey, guess what kids? It's all part of the major-label game. It doesn't necessarily mean that they are selling out or that they will become more famous than they are now;do you realise how many bands get videos on that channel that are played once or twice then are never heard from again? THat's because the label and MTV decided that they didn't "move enough product" and therefore are not worth sinking any more money/time into. This does not mean that they will all disappear into the abyss of obscurity..some bands if they're good or determined or both enough will persevere, and I think the Misfits will do just that. MTV aside, I think they will continue on no matter what and do what they do best, which is make good quality music that adheres to no trend but their own. I see no evidence of "selling out" here in my opinion. Anyway, just had to put my 2 cents in on this subject.....I think some folks are overreacting FAR too much concerning the Misfits and MTV. --CHRIS ____________________________________________________________________ Get free e-mail and a permanent address at http://www.netaddress.com ------------------------------ From: "Sheila Brown" Subject: Does anyone remember?

It looks like Glenn plays a sidekick demon to Gabriel (Christopher Walken) or even a mortal who was about to die before Gabriel borrowed his soul for "assistance", like he did in Prophecy I. On another note, could we stop the bullshit that's been going on lately within this bible. It's really simple, if it's not Misfits related, don't post! And do we really have to discuss who can beat who up, or who's more punk than thou--mmr--who gives a shit.

Caroline records bought all of the misfits written and played material just before the band broke up. the result was the plan 9 comp. the pro mo photos were part of that deal, so when the band changed labels, caroline naturally stamped all the pro mos with thier logos. about two months later, the bandke up.(what I find interesting here is the timeline of events. this would mean that glenn was selling the fits before they even broke up. what a pisser!) #2 Tammy, I admire your devotion to finding the color matches in the bullet e.p. now thats dedication to the cause. you go girl!( booty dance!booty dance!) Gigantor, heres a thought for you to dream by steven (bigger lips than mick jagger) tyler, that dude from Korn (dreadlocks a flyin) and the fits beating the shit out of megadeaf. it would be just like when they chased motley crue down sunset. aahhh, bliss. well, I guess I only had one answer this time, but don't you worry, I now have a major labels backing on tracking the true timeline of the fits. from a to z. should prove interesting. also, I have just recently been given the promo disc by that same friend, ( agoth punk that refuses to admit that the misfits were a definite founding factor in "gothic" music today. it is almost identical except for the cover and hell night plays at a normal interval, instead of after so much silence. (is it just me, or is this "hidden track" shit gettin a little otta hand?) well, gotta go, spent all day today under cars. I could make a devillock that would never sweat out. and also have that wonderful rain resistant quality so sought after by the minons of the fiends. the secret:valvoline syntec.

I have never read that little punk rag, but have heard enough about it. I know that they are a buncha conservative little cunts. I loved those song parodies, and the "Hell Night" backwards thing, that's so goddamn funny...Loved that part: We made a new album With lyrics that are dumb So song writing is not for everyone We redid "Earth A.D." And made it happy Ain't that the fucking truth! Also, I am not a rich kid wearing crappy clothes, I am middle class trash wearing creepy clothes! I am not Mr.Punk, I just think of the real definition of punk: Low-lives, scroundrels, whatever...Gutter Punks, REAL punks, not these little sXe, Christian clean cut MxPx snots that call themselves punk cause they're going through a teen phase. I don't even label myself "punk", "goth", I just am what I am. As for Manson being goth, he is definately NOT goth. He's a little Trent Reznor cash cow, and his fame is almost totally dried up. I hate him so much, mainly cause people ask me if I'm influenced by that corporate rock fag, I HATE that. (So, when you flame for anything I've written in my alcoholic stupor, associate me with that fuck-shit:) Oh well, Vodkas wearing off anyfuckingway) Also, stop saying stupid shit to piss off Bobby, cuz yer just a little scrawny cunt who will never even meet him. If you did, he probably knock the living fuck out of your corpse. Thankfully that stupid little troll with four letters in his name has been dropped from our elite prescense....:) I never read his silly babble anyhow. Oh hell, here comes the fire!! I can feel the seering flames scortching my eyes now. Sorry for this shitty little rant...Least I'm sober enough to spell good.

Hello again, Let me explain a few things. When I mentioned the Walk Among Us lineup I was referring to a picture of the group inside the CD foldout thingy...it has a small b&w pic with their names but the picture isn't of Doyle and Googy, it's of Bobby and Joey. I know the lineup for that album was Doyle and Googy. I was asking if that happened to anyone else or is it just a Warner Brothers screw up? Well, thanks for throwing your two cents in! Also the band I mentioned, Damnation, should in no way be confused with another band by the name of Damnation A.D., the previous one has a new CD out called Ghosts of the 21st Century, it's good. Well, that does it for me...

I won't lie, I began listening to them for the past 2 or 3 months, but I've listened to all of their stuff(including their newest) and I like it all just fine. I think that the latest posts on the bible have sorted the real fans from the trend ones. Yeah, I believe that the new stuff isn't as good as the older stuff, but it's not bad. I quote:"This reunion is just another way for the Misfits to get their kids through college." I don't know who wrote that, but a band does tend to CHANGE a little bit throughout the course of 20 years especially when members leave. This band has a new flavor for a reason : A COUPLE OF NEW PEOPLE. I'll shut my trap now, but to all of those who insist on writing those whiney sob stories on how the Fits will never be the same, I can only say:"YOU'RE RIGHT ALREADY, GET OVER IT, YOU MUST HAVE MORE TIME ON YOUR HANDS THAN I DO TO WRITE ALL THAT EXAUST!!!!" a loyal fiend ------------------------------ From: "Stephen A Perry" Subject: Fiend at last!... Date: Sat, 6 Sep 1997 01:01:25 -0400 A new fan's story... I had heard of the Misfits for years, but I never had the chance to hear them. I think I was afraid of what I would find. Turns out I got into them at just the right time;their comeback. It all started when I heard of a concert with Dokken as "special guest" from a local radio station. Turns out, it was a birthday bash for the station, which included Misfits, Megadeth, Dokken, Warrant, Slaughter and Alice Cooper. So, I had to jump at the chance to see Dokken, since I've been a fan since the early eighties. Since there were so many bands, the concert was divided into two days. The first day, two local bands, Misfits and Megadeth. Me and my friends got about 5ft from the stage during the two local bands, and ended up getting hammered by mosh pits and idiots. We moved back before Misfits came on. I could still see them plain as day. I was standing there watching the crew set up the stage, and saw the spikes on the drumset, which seemed weird. I also saw a lot of Jerry Only, because he checks his own bass. Also, Michale was standing on side-stage watching the crowd. Keep in mind, I thought these guys were just part of the crew. When the time came for them to start, Dr. Chud ran out sporting his famous leather jacket. He ran across the stage and behind the drum set. Jerry, Doyle and Michale scrambled on the stage. Michale was in a straight jacket, and Jerry and Doyle were in their Crimson Ghost faces. It all seemed so weird at first, because I wasn't used to this sort of thing. Then, when they started playing, it became evident that these guys had something cool going. They played non-stop for about two hours. Jerry didn't give much time between songs;yelling out "1-2-3-4" and starting another. Michale took a dive into the crowd and then walked into the crowd for a song. They even let some dude who dressed as the Crimson Ghost on stage for a song. Afterwards, Jerry hugged the guy and the other guys acknowledge him. I thought that was really cool. I knew I was missing something, and I wanted to be a part of it. I just wish I had known the songs before the concert. I would have enjoyed it a lot more. The next day, before day 2 of the concert, my friend baught American Psycho, and we jammed. A few days later, I got my own copy and have been listening to it ever since. Since the concert, I've joined the bible, sent in for membership for the fiend club, and I've grabbed just about every picture and text file on the Misfits available on the Internet (old and new). I can't get enough! The guys really care about their fans, and they work hard to make sure we have an awesome time at their concerts. And I hope they reach the top this time. On a similar note, I've been searching for a Dig Up Her Bones promo 7" single vinyl. I'd love to own one. If you have any info on how to get one, or wish to sell one for a reasonable price, I'd be interested. Also, I wouldn't mind seeing some new Misfits concert tapes. E-mail me. :-) ------------------------------ From: mhoffman@clab.cecil.cc.md.us (Mike Hoffman) Subject: Static Age Date: Sat, 6 Sep 1997 10:37:25 -0400 Hi, I'm looking for the Misfits "Static Age" on purple vinyl if you have a copy or can get one i will buy it off of you or trade for it. Thanks Mike Hoffman ------------------------------ From: "kevin holmes" Subject: 1 reason why the 'fits are pissed at dave mustaine Date: Sat, 06 Sep 1997 08:52:59 PDT my friend mike met Jerry Only and Dr CHUD after the 'fits and megafuckingwasteoftime show here in St. Louis last month and Dr CHUD told him about why they are reall pissed at Dave, and according to CHUD megacrap tried three times to ge the 'fits to tour with them and they kept saying no and the third time they were asked they said theywould only go if they got their own sound and lighting setupsfor the tour and Dave agreed to this and when the first date of the tour rolled around low and behold dave had dicke the 'fits oer and only delivered half of what he promised. and CHUD went on to say that this was the worst leg of the AP tour yet. "We might never change the world, but atleast we've had say" KEVIN from SPOOKTRO p.s.- just gotta show you the power pf the misfits, i am in a band called SPOOKTRO and when we first started playing together our drummer had never listened to the Misfits and after two weeks hanging with me and Mike(the other guy in Spooktro, we were a 3 piece at the time) he had gotted Walk Among Us and a couple days ago he got the Coffin box set, alright time for to plug my band, Spooktro is a four piece "punk" band who's lyric focus around horror, sci-fi and murder (some lyrics are border linedeath metal type) because of the different scene each member comes from we are influenced by everything from The Misfits to Elvis to Lords of Acid to NewYorkHardCore to the Stray Cats and everything inbetween, our sound is basically punk , but htere are some metal and ambient flavors popping up here andthere, we are working on our demo right now if anyone here on the bible is interested in recieving a copy of our demo i will send you one for free, i will even cover the postage to get it to you, so just email your address to spooktro@hotmail.com and only ask for a copy if you think that you would interested in hearingus. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 6 Sep 1997 15:48:33 -0400 (EDT) From: LEGION669@aol.com Subject: TENNESSE FIENDS WHERE ARE YOU?

Not that it's bad or anything, but if you haven't heard the newfits (the one or two of you out there), don't go to a show thinking they'll be copying the Static Age sound or whatever. Anyway, they played at 328 Performance Hall, a really crappy place, since you can't use flash cameras or even leave once you go in, so unless you're with one of the bands playing, no chance to meet the band. Except for after the stuff starts and security may not be in the back parking lot. As for security, I spent most of the show dodging them, since this one dude chased me through the crowd, 'cause I used a flash on Doyle. As for the show, they played a good grouping of songs, but Jerry would ask "what do you want to hear? and then would say Braineaters? Halloween? 1-2-3-4...And start Halloween. He did give the mike out and someone said Psycho 78, so he was like "Horror Business?" The show was cool all in all (even with hiding from security), but the worst part of it was Graves. I went in unbiased, but he does kinda have that CockRock attitude. The crusty punks that I went with said that if they were a 3 piece with Jerry doing vocals, they would be awesome. I thought they would when he started singing Come Back...Lastly, the songs played. No, I didn't do 'em in order, but I'm sure if someone else writes about it, they got it. They played the first 5 songs on the new album in order, then Static Age, TV Casualty, Hybrid moments (then I lost order). They played everything off AP except: Mars Attacks (Thank goodness), Blacklight, Dead Kings, Hellnight, and Resurrection. Other stuff they played was: Astrozombies (a crowd favorite), I turned into a Martian, Bullet, She, Return of the Fly, Where Eagles dare, Skulls, Violent World, Come Back, Mommy, Some kinda Hate, Halloween, Horror Business, Horror hotel, Ghouls Night Out, London Dungeon (another crowd favorite, maybe because, in the words of one of the members of From Ashes Rise "Dude, there are no punks here tonight.") and they closed with Bloodfeast and Die Die. Jerry asked about some songs giving choices, but they didn't play: Notld, Braineaters, and Devilock (Jerry said: "How about devilock? Doyle you wanna play devilock?" Doyle just shook his head no.) Anyway, trying to finish, They have the coolest looking guitars I've ever seen, I guess describing them I'd say Crystalline insects for shape. And Jerry is the coolest guy, since I fought up through the people getting autographs after the show and said "How 'bout a picture Jerry" And he was like "where's the camera?" I had a friend take the picture, but it took him fifteen seconds to get it to work, but Jerry stayed posed the entire time with me. I got worried that he'd say "come back when your camera works" but he didn't. That made the 7 hour drive worth it right there...I hope I didn't offend anyone with the post, and sorry it's long ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 7 Sep 1997 12:25:12 -0400 (EDT) From: SINNER56@aol.com Subject: Don't Make A Video Dear Misfits, Please DO NOT make a video.

It contains in the booklet a photo of the HORROR BUSINESS lineup, but the names of the actual WAU lineup -- thus the picture substitutes Bobby Steele and Joey Image for Doyle and Robo. Check out the current issue of METAL EDGE for a Q/A section by Danzig, where he tells a reader his middle name (Allen), his car, favourite food, etc. For some strange reason, he does not reveal that the tattoo on the base of his spine says "Devilman" in Japanese. Nevertheless, Shawn Micheals pinned the Undertaker several times at In Your House: Ground Zero, but because the Undertaker repeatedly and unprovokedly attacked referees, no one was able to register the official victory. -Brett "I wanna salvage your spinal remains" ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 08 Sep 1997 00:02:50 -0400 (EDT) From: Purple Jesus Subject: dig up her bones single picked up a promo single for dig up her bones this weekend for $.59.......just thought i'd let everyone out know it's out there....check your college stations if you want it....

Sorry. I sent it in TOO late. It was Tammy's fault ;) I'll use that neat little numbering system everyone's stolen from me... 1) Dave Mustaine made a interesting quote in LiVeWire magazine Sept.1997 "If you've noticed, every band that has opened for Megadeth has gone platinum in record sales and became nation-wide known bands. They are: Pantera, Stone Temple Pilots and Alice In Chains preceding this tour." Personally I dislike Dave Mustaine AND Megadeth, but that's just my opinion. But WOW. What do you think? I doubt it... 2) rip_the_system@juno.com wrote last time about the store Hot Topic - If you noticed, I NEVER said the store was cool. PLUS the fact that I figured the store had a LARGE "trendy" customer rate with their choice of merchandise. So who gives a shit? I came in there to buy some Misfits shirts. I could care less about the "Mansonites" around me. I'm not "crossing over" as you put it. I'm not going to stay home because some "trendy" people go to a store that I *might* have a chance to get some cool shirts from. I guess the "trendies" ARE controlling YOUR thoughts. Their presence alone keeps you away from a fuckin' store... The thing that strikes me as odd - I ask a simple question about a shirt that I hadn't seen before ("Dogpile Horror Business"), and ALL I get is people's opinions on the store I saw it at. Shit... 3) Saw something REALLY cool on MTV today. It was black, with NO audio for about 3 hours. Quite possibly the BEST thing I've EVER seen on MTV. Anybody else see that? I wish I taped it... 4) ChristoTer@aol.com wrote a couple issues back - > First of all I hope everyone calls their local radio station and > dedicated "Dig Up Her Bones" to Princess Di. Tasteless, I know. How's this for tasteless... By now I'm sure all of you have heard about the tragic death of Princess Diana. Well, EVEN the Misfits were affected by this painful loss, and have wrote a song in Lady Di's honor. It's called "Die Di, My Darling". >From the perspective of the papparazzi of course, who put her to death. Well, I was going to change the lyrics for it, but figured since Darren had already broughten it up, nevermind. If anybody else wants to, that'd kick ass. I'm getting REAL sick of those stupid parodies that make fun of the "new" lineup. Mostly because they contain NO thought process, nor a sense of humor... 5) I bought Eerie Von's (and Mike Morance) Uneasy Listening today. Uh oh, from Best Buy. Hope that's not "Trendie"... Anyways, my FAVORITE song so far is "Runnin' Scared". The bass line kicks SO much ass. The speed of which Eerie play's it is amazing... Every Halloween I bring a speaker outside, and run the wire thru the window to my radio. I usually play some spooky Haunted House tapes. This year I'll play Uneasy Listening... I recommend this to EVERYONE. It's ALL instrumental, with singing only on one song, Half A Gurl. There was one copy left, so if anyone want's it that bad, I might be able to pick it up for you. OR you can ask your local record store (preferably NON-trendy) to order it directly from Caroline. Later Fiends. PS - Stay away from "trendy stores". -TiM ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 08 Sep 1997 02:49:37 -0300 From: Rodney Snow Subject: Hey fiends, I got a box set a little while ago, when my brother was in Chicago, and it had two cd cases, four cd's (of course), and no fiend club pin :( Anyway, a buddy of mine got one through mail order a little while after that, and it had a club pin, and it also had four cd cases, and a special one for Static Age. So my question is, why are there two different versions?

This is interesting, I think some people get the wrong idea about Jerry because they tend to pick up two articles or quotes from vastly different periods in time and then compare them. Jerry is the mouthpiece for the band and therefore handles virtually all of the 'on record' interviews. The business he's in changes from day to day and therefore plans and ideas he has one week can become outdated, updated or just plain wrong the next week. Modifying your ideas and opinions shows intelligence not hypocrisy. Interesting that you like Doyle. After all, he never actually says anything to make you dislike him. It's the whole Metallica Hetfield/Ulrich thing. People hated Lars because he did the talking while Hetfield remained 'cool' because he never said much. Try this, make a tape of some of your views and opinions today and then play it back to yourself in six months time... unless you have one boring as hell life, you're likely to surprise yourself. As for American Psycho being a flop, I'd say it's very likely that it is in fact the Misfits biggest selling album. NO, I'm not saying this makes it better, just correcting an erroneous assumption. Mark, any figures floating around as regards sales? >i know i'm gonna get flack for this, but fuck it. if think i'm an asshole, >and i think that i'm full of shit, then you can fuck yourself. I'd suggest that if you yourself believe that you are 'full of shit' then the last thing you need to be doing is writing to a public forum to express your views. BTW, Marilyn Manson on the MTV awards was the most cringeworthy performance of the weekend... worse than Elton John's even.

Kate ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 08 Sep 1997 08:55:14 -0700 From: Mark Schmitt Subject: Misfits Article and a bit more... Hello everyone, This is my first post after reading the 'Misfits Bible' for over 2 years! First off, in issue #9 of a magazine called "Great God Pan" (the most current issue I believe), there's an article on the original Misfits and their impact on the early California hardcore scene. The article is a mixed bag of cut and paste jobs from other zines of the era, but it has an interesting slant relating to Glenn's obvious homophobia. This article also has a full page of classic fliers from California Misfits shows and I think it is only part 1 or a 2 part article to be continued in their next issue, so it might be worth your effort to get out and find this kooky magazine. Next, I know this won't mean much, but it is my first post so I'll cough up a position/platform on the Misfits: 1.)the box-set is a wonderful thing... to have anything extra AT ALL by the original line-up(s) is pure gold. There's no such thing as a rip-off when it's from the classic and timeless Misfits. 2.)'Static Age' is also a wonderful thing... see above reasoning. 3.) Bobby Steele is a good guy, a great musician, and he takes too much heat around the Bible. I saw the Undead in May of 1991 in Normal, IL at 'the Gallery'. Bobby took so much guff from rowdy big "P" punk-rockers and he kept his cool to the end and put on a show I will never forget. He hung around before and after the show to talk to the fans... Bobby is a class act. To apply a cliche line to Bobby's Misfits past... it's better to have been a Misfit than to never have been a Misfit at all. Bobby you are great! 4.)Glenn: Glenn was the Misfits for me. Listen to his "Who Killed Marilyn/ Spook City" 45... that's the "Misfits" sound without the conventional line-up. Glenn gets bashed in the Bible a lot, but he really doesn't deserve it. Look at that catalog of songs that his reign gave us... can anyone sneer at that? I didn't think so. Glenn is also a very cool guy... I meet him before he played the Madison in Peoria, IL with the original line-up of Danzig minus Biscuits on the 4p tour w/Marilyn Manson. Glenn was swell to my girlfriend and I, he was goofy and playful. I think he gets a bad rap from some people because they themselves are obnoxious "punk-rockers" and not dedicated fans and supporters of something that will always be very great. 5.) the "new" Misfits: As a big Damned fan, I was excited about the possibility of a Dave Vanian Misfits, but of course that soured. Well, Michale Graves is no Glenn Danzig. The music on "American Psycho" is great for aggression, but it lacks the spirit and passion of the orginal Glenn led band. The lyrics aren't smooth and they seem forced at times. Some songs are just copies of old Misfits songs. Listen to "Hellnight" and then listen to "Where Eagles Dare"... that's the same music essentially and the vocal is a mere Glennism. I gave "American Psycho" a try, and it just made my strengthen my love for the old band. That's it. -Mark Schmitt ------------------------------ From: rabid.doctor@mindpulse.com Date: Mon, 8 Sep 1997 10:41:34 -0500 Subject: sheila brown; I remember when the dude had that thing about the idiot police's 3rd demo..

I doubt it, but security went apeshit on me about a month ago at the Megadick/MISFITS show in Milwaukee. I have had a camera in there about twenty time without a problem. Last year's Metalfest...no problem, this year...no problem, but Mustaine and his ego probably told the security "No Pictures" and "Try to beat the hell out of anyone who has a camera" Well when all was said and done, I was singing "Your never gonna get me your never gonna get me.." while more than one meathead security guard tried to throw me out. Well the fits ended, and I left with 20 of the best concert photos I have ever taken. So to Dave "buttstain" Mustain.....Get a life. I would waste a picture on your boring ass band.

You have gathered with several of your close friends outside of the Grand Rapids concert venue "The Intersection"... Although most of the time, this venue only serves to horrible local bar bands, tonight they have brought a special treat for Grand Rapids fans... THE MISFITS Now, imagine this.. The Misfits have cancelled! After spending half the night waiting for them to open the doors, they finally tell you that the Misfits have cancelled because of some "emergency" and the venue will still be showing the opening acts, one spectacular punk/oi band and two rather shitty other bands, for $7!!!!! Ok, the final imagine, imagine this... You talk to one of the members of one of the said opening acts and get the true story behind the mysterious cancellation.. The Misfits did not like THe Intersections PA system, and therefore took off, saying they're going to reschedule in October.. What the hell is this shit? Have Jerry Only and The Misfits been so blinded by their new record contract with the mighty David Geffen that they forget who really matter: The fans! Are these four men too much of rock stars to play a venue because they believe the PA isnt up to their high and mighty audiophilic standards? Now, i'll be the first to accept an answer to the claim that there actually was an emergency and the cancellation was founded, and the show will be rescheduled in October. But somehow, i dont believe this is going to happen.. somehow, i believe that The Misfits are no longer about making music, but instead making money and being the supreme champions of horror punk. You may see your faces on MTV, but pretty soon you're gonna lose the faces that truly matter... the faces of the fans.

Date: Mon, 8 Sep 1997 19:56:11 -0400 Ya know, every time a band changes, the ugliness comes out. I'm disappointed in the fans who still call themselves fiends and bash the new Misfits at the same time. I don't need to hear your moping. I'm here to converse with other fiends who are loyal. So what if Glenn isn't with the band anymore. If he were, it wouldn't be the same as it used to be. Times have changed. No matter how good something is, there's always someone griping about it. The same thing happens with other bands. Take Metallica for instance. "They sold out", a comment about the black album and LOAD. The real sellouts are the fans who are stuck in the past. You can still enjoy the past with the great albums that exist. Nothing can ever take that away. I, for one, am looking to the future of the Misfits, and it looks to be bright. Michale Graves is getting better every day, and his vocals already kick ass. To the Misfits, if you're reading this, I'm behind you all the way, man. Misfits forever! Fiends forever! ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 8 Sep 1997 21:19:35 -0500 Subject: EVERYONE FUCK OFF From: grim-raper@juno.com (Greenwatch Link) Really its obvious that the Misfits aren't the same.

And I will respect The Misfits (Jerry, Doyle, Michale and Chud) and whatever desicions they make. As I see it, they came back for two reasons, Jerry's dad, and YOU. They have every reason now it seems to say "fuck it", but they don't. They haven't turned there back on you, but god damn you turned your back on them.

Yes, those balding, money-hungry jocks that we all love so much and praise on here non stop (well, usually make excuses for), decided that it would be best to a.> Show up in Grand Rapids, b.> decide that they didn't like the PA, and c.> Leave everyone stuck with the opportunity of seeing a local band and 2 other bands for 7 Dollars. Ticketmaster supposedly will refund us on our tickets, but the fuckin' idiots that run the venue that the show was at haven't even talked to Ticketmaster about it. I sat there and defended the new Misfits and everything, but this is rediculous - Glenn might be an ass or so the story goes, but is he really the prima-donna that these rock-stars are? Hell I'm not the type to go around pointing fingers and shouting "sellout", but bands DO kind of have a responsibility to show up for shows that they schedule. I'm not the only unhappy Misfits fan out there, it's a good thing I at least never picked up that turd of a new album - I feel like i have at least 1 up on all my friends. Maybe it's better that I didn't see the Newfits, becasue I didn't have to have my pristine view of them destroyed by seeing "Don't open 'till Doomsday" and other such tripe performed live by ex-members of the real Misfits. I don't think I've ever heard of a band dissing out on a show because they "don't like the PA.". If any of the fit's are reading this, we in Grand Rapids would like an explanation. To anyone else, I've finally come to realize that this band isn't the misfits, just some second rate metal band.

Prophecy II Misfits in Raleigh and other things Misfits@Roseland Friday Oct. 24 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Intersection From: undead@juno.com Date: Wed, 10 Sep 1997 16:54:05 EDT I saw a few people jumping on the FITS for canceling the INTERSECTION show. Let's not be too hasty: 1) We don't know what the nature of the contract was. Many bands have P.A. specifications in their agreement. Maybe the P.A. wasn't up to spec. 2) It's another 'damned if ya do; damned if ya don't' situation. If they'd played with an inferior system - they might've gotten shit for sounding like shit. They're used to playing through massive guitar/bass rigs - and that requires a BIG sound system to compete with all that stage volume. I heard a similar incident "almost" occurred at one of their Pennsylvania shows. The P.A. was partially blown out and they weren't gonna play. The promoter, and fiends 'begged' them to do the show . . . and they eventually did it. They should learn to adapt to smaller venues - when it's called for. This has always been a shortcoming for THE MISFITS - the inability to turn down to accomodate a weak P.A. So you sacrifice a little sound. The show can still be intense. >>From what I know this is only the 2nd time they've cancelled a show since the reformation . . . that's not so bad.

A few months ago, I was told by someone at Geffen that it had already sold 80,000 copies. This was before the tour with Megadeth, and right around when "Dig Up Her Bones" was first sent to radio stations. I think it's safe to assume it's sold more since then, and will continue to sell. > From: KSaxon > Subject: thing > > I hardly say much on the bible, but I felt I just had to comment on this particular > statement... > > >The bootlegs are, however, done with the band's permission. > > not really a bootleg then, is it. A bootleg is something made illegally without the > consent/knowledge of the artist. In theory of course.... the logic is that it's Cory's design and not the band's and is therefore not "official" although Cory has their permission. It's just a minor misuse of terminology I guess. Mark ------------------------------ From: EWempa@njeb.att.com Subject: Monitors force cancellation??? Date: Wed, 10 Sep 1997 10:13:55 -0400 Fiends, Maybe we're not hearing the whole story on this canceled Misfits show in Grand Rapids. I saw the Misfits in York, Pa. on August 13 where the Misfits encountered problems with the monitors. While the Misfits roadies urged the band to "blow this gig" and take off, Jerry and Doyle said they were going to play the show no matter what, for the fans. And they did just that. This doesn't sound much like the band who supposedly canned a show due to a bad PA system. And oh yeah, I really love the Misfits. Rock on, Erik ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 10 Sep 1997 10:30:18 -0400 (EDT) From: Sistinas13@aol.com Subject: New London, CT First I should thank all the people who took the time to contact me with tips on how to meet up with the band at concerts. Counting down the days to the New London show this Saturday!!! I have so much confidence now! I'll post to let you know where to get my pics w/ the band (fingers crossed!). Anyway, I thought I'd jump in & contribute my opinion to this ongoing debate...I went to the New Haven, CT show last June without hearing the new record. I wanted to get the feel for the live Fits. Too many times bands are misrepresented by the sound of a studio recording, so I thought this would be the fairest way to decide for myself which I liked better. All I can say is that I was completely blown away by the spirit, or enthusiasm should I say, of the band onstage. Granted the new cd sounds a bit different, but do you really expect musicians not to grow artistically? Maybe it was a goal to bring something new into the picture. Playing music that sounds exactly the same for years & years just can't have any creative quality. I don't even think it's humanly possible not to change. At any rate, I'm grateful that they've chosen to stay on the road. It's given fans like myself an opportunity to see a great band. P.S. One more thing. If there's anyone else from CT who'll be at the show Saturday, contact me! ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 10 Sep 1997 09:32:51 -0600 From: plushie Subject: fuck you julian >This is interesting, I think some people get the wrong idea about Jerry >because they tend to pick up two articles or quotes from vastly different >periods in time and then compare them. >Jerry is the mouthpiece for the band and therefore handles virtually all of >the 'on record' interviews.

The other bands (for future reference) were Process is Dead, one of those noisy power-violence bands and Teen Idols, an old school sound kinka Ramones-ish. The singer for Teen Idols was like "Quit throwing ice at me!" go figure that one out. I don't think the show got taped, since Performance Hall doesn't allow it, and I barely slipped away from security after using a flash on a camera. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 10 Sep 1997 23:37:07 -0700 From: "O.B.H.C" Subject: Wanted Hey, I'm looking to buy Static Age on yellow or purple vinyl.

The crowd was really small. When Pist On took the stage, there were no more than 20 people on the floor. Pist On was pretty shitty. I think that Life of Agony's old drummer is a member. Is that true? A couple more people showed by the time the Misfits were getting ready, but it was still pretty sparce. I can't believe that nobody was there. The Misfits' performance kicked ass. They put as much effort into the show as if there were thousands of people there. The lack of crowd made it easy to get up to the front of the stage. Plus, there weren't any security guards in front of the stage. Throughout the set, Graves would call up people to sing back-up vocals. There was a lot of interplay with the fans. For their encore, Graves walked around stage and asked people what they wanted to hear. Their last song was "Die, Die..." and Jerry gestured for everyone to come up. A bunch of people got up on stage (myself included) and got to run around and sing. After the show, Jerry walked on to the floor to talk and sign autographs. I wanted to mention that I was on the Bible and was interested in seeing the new video, but I couldn't think clearly. After hearing about the new Misfits selling out and doing it for the money, I thought that they may slack off for this show. Who cares if 40 people see a sub par show. Even if the Misfits are in it for the money, I think that they earn it. I saw them in Detroit a year ago, and there was no difference in the effort they put out. They busted their ass at the two shows I saw them at. I feel that the money I paid was well spent. I can't speak about the other shows or cancelled shows, but I think they are an extremely hard-working band that deserves to reap the benefits of their efforts.

Perhaps you should find out some other facts before instantly labeling them rock stars. You heard that they didn't like the PA from someone in another band. Did anyone else back that up, like the club owner? Secondly, if you are not a musician, PLEASE do not discount the validity of that excuse even if it is true. The Fits use alot of powerful equipment onstage, and a PA that can't handle it causes alot of problems. I've played through PA systems that should never have been built in the first place. I know it sucks for you either way, but if the club owner has a piece of shit PA then blame him for not being able to accommodate the band in the first place. ~Xp. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 11 Sep 1997 14:58:40 -0400 From: Ken Bregman Subject: Misfits Pins, Box Sets and Canadian Fiends.

Also, I seem to remember in an old issue of "Blunt" snowboarding magazine that had a picture of the box set and its contents which included a skull patch instead of a pin. But I could be crazy. 2. Also, when I opened my box set there were five cd's. There was one "Collection" CD, two "Legacy, Evilive, Earth AD" CD's" one "Sessions" CD and a "Static Age" CD. So here I am with two copies of the second CD. You think I could sell it? No way! "What? CD 2? Where's the rest of 'em" or "Why is the case all screwed up" (Thin black plastic case, embossed letters) and my favourite "Ten Bucks for a used CD you're crazy!" Even though there are 3 full albums on it. Oh well. 3. Finally, I have lost my booklet that came with the box set. If anyone has a double please send one. I could send my cursed double CD as trade. Maybe you could sell it. -Ken ___________________________________________________________________ CKLU 96.7 FM Campus and Community Radio The station formerly known as CFLR. www.cklu.isys.ca 935 Ramsey Lake Rd.

I have been a Fiend Club member since early summer and I have yet to receive anything from the Fiend Club. When I sent my letter I was not expecting a shower of gifts from on high but at least something like a "Welcome to the Feind Club" kind of thing. Could it be that the club only sends stuff within the continental U.S.? This would make sense because international postage is kinda expensive. But if that were the case then why not tell people before they registered. Maybe if they asked for a couple of bucks from foreign Fiends. Are there any fiends from Canada who have received club stuff in the mail? Brochures, concert dates, anything. At the radio station where I work we got a "Violent World" postcard from Caroline that said "Please play this CD" signed by the Caroline rep. The problem was that they never sent us the CD. Is it just me or is anything relating to the Misfits unorganized and kinda screwed? It would seem so. Oh well, I'll just sit back, listen to the music and not worry about the rest of it. -Ken ___________________________________________________________________ CKLU 96.7 FM Campus and Community Radio The station formerly known as CFLR. www.cklu.isys.ca 935 Ramsey Lake Rd.

Bell" Subject: Misfits in Raleigh and other things First I must say to everyone who keeps slammimg Mike Jerry Doyle and Chud you are a bunch of fucking fools (reason forthcoming). I just got home from seeing the Misfits in Raleigh NC and they were incredible!!! They played so much stuff most new stuff a good bit of Static Age and just kept playing!! This is for all you Mike Vs. Glen stuff: Some stupid fucking kid was pulled out of the crowd by 3 security guards, some how he got back in and up on stage. He tried to push Mike in to the crowd, Mike then proceeded to stomp this guys ass!! Once the fight moved off stage Jerry put down his bass and started pounding on the guy with his big spiked gloves. All in all, the guards again pulled the guy out, only unocnsious this time!! Mike let me sing on Hate the Living Love the Dead with him also. After the show I waited for everyone to come out. Jerry was first. I went up to him and he hugged me and said thanx for hellping clear out the people during the fight. Now this was the first time I met Jerry, but contrarary to what everybody seems to think he is a really cool guy!! I talked to him about 15 min or so, all kinds of people begging to talk or get an autograph, but he wanted to finish thanking me (Very Cool!!) Then chud emerged went in to the bus with some chick cam out a few minutes later got to talk to him for a little while too, he also is a cool guy. Finally I got tired of waiting for Mike and maybe Doyle to come out so I went back in to the club and they were both just coming from backstage. I talked to Mike for a minute he said about the same thins Jerry had. Then I got a chance to talk to Doyle, a feat not many have accomplished!! He is just a gentle giant and also really cool. In the end I went home with all 4 autographs on my shirt, never to be worn again, and having gotten to talk to a 4 guys feeling really good. I guess the whole poiont of thi incredibly long post is to say the Mike Jerry Doye and Chud are 4 really cool guys that put on an incredible show in the little state of North Carolina, best part is all 4 guys said they will be back in about a month with GWAR and Sick Of it All, how much better can life get??

Also, TM also lists several shows for November with Sick Of It All, after Gwar leaves the tour. I will have officially confirmed dates from the band next week. The Iggy Pop tribute album will be released Tuesday with a Misfits version of their old favorite "I Got A Right" on Royalty Records. The album also features a cover of "1969" with Joey Ramone on vocals, Jerry on bass, Chud on drums, and Daniel Rey (Ramones/Misfits producer) on guitar. Bleeder's Diegest #2 (the official Fiend Club newsletter) has been sent out to members of the Fiend Club. I'm not sure what the story on this is... I thought it would be coming out later, and it was sort of a surprise. I'll call Doug Evil about it next week. You can order copies of issue #1 or #2 from Doug Evil by sending $1 and a stamp (for each issue you order) to: Bleeder's Diegest Back Issues; PO Box 137; Cairnbrook, PA 15294 By the way fiends, if any of you are not in the Fiend Club, or feel that your membership has been "lost" or "forgotten" please write another letter to: Misfits Fiend Club PO Box 310 Vernon, NJ 07462 They do not send confirmation, so don't sit around waiting for a letter from Jerry or a membership package. You will simply receive all the mailings starting with the next mailing following your membership. They get hundreds of letters a week, so they're kept pretty busy. For everyone who wants to know the numbers, there were 5000 blue vinyl "Dig Up Her Bones" 7" singles sent to radio stations. If the public version comes out, it will be sometime in October, possibly near Halloween. I do not know how many CDs were made. The Mourning Noise CD has been mastered and should be out in October as should the next Chyna album. Be on the lookout for more information about these 2 releases next month!

Excuse me, but how much of the above lines do you know are fact? With the little that I do know about the settlement (and it's none of my business or anyone else's) I can tell you that you are somewhat mistaken. Googy settled with Glenn in '82 after he left the band and had no part in this settlement. Like Bobby says, he (Bobby), Joey, and Manny were not involved in this recent settlement, but if anyone is getting any $, it certainly IS Glenn. At the time of the lawsuit the band was unable to get in contact with Joey and Manny, and even Bobby will tell you that in the beginning they contacted him as well.

You don't have the first clue about the specific details contained within any payment contracts between the Misfits (by that I mean Glenn and Jerry) and Caroline Records. All you know is that Jerry has *claimed* Glenn owes him money and that Bobby has *claimed* that Jerry owes him money... the only people that really know the truth aren't likely to post it here (no offence meant by that Bobby, I'm sure what you've said about the situation is correct as you see it). >now can you see that he's a hypocrite, or are you just to fucken >blind.

The show kicked ass, from beginning to end. I know many people don't feel the same, but I really enjoyed Maxiumum Penalty. I also liked Marky Ramone and the Intruders, the other band that played before the Misfits. They played alot of songs fro American Psycho, an album I recently picked up and I really like. Michael Graves is a real performed and knows how to get a crowd pumped up. About halfway through the show he jumped right into the crowd, and came back up on stage several minutes later. They played mostly requested, including American Nightmare and Where Eagles Dare. I especially enjoyed when Marky Ramone came out in Misfits garb and played Blitzkreig Bop. The band seems to have become muc more energetic and together since I saw them back in May '96. Overall I rate the show as one of the best I've ever seen, and can only pray them come around here again. If anybody out there happens to know where I can obtain a copy of this Sep. 9 University Park show please let me know, I weould really like to get my hands on it.

NEIL ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 12 Sep 1997 15:00:53 -0400 From: sixsins@globalserve.net Subject: Grand Rapids...the real deal Hi. I was at the Grand Rapids Show( not show ) and i know what happened and all the circumstances for the cancellation. The misfits have a two part rider: a hospitality rider (food etc) and a technical rider: minimum requirements for PA and mixing board, monitors etc. for them to be able to put on a show. This second part was the problem...well, not to mention the fact that they didnt even have their hospitality rider...but that is besides the point. The technical rider was completely ignored by the club for whatever reason. The outcome of this was breach of contract on the club's behalf. Therefore...the misfits had no obligation to play. If the PA had have even been tolerable they would have done the show. They did everything they could to get the stuff they needed, but the club could not accomodate them. As a performer i know how impossible it is to play with a shitty PA like the one they had there. Also, if they had have played, the fans would not have gotten trheir moneys worth. It would have been too quiet, you would not have been able to hear michale at all, jerry would haved faded almost into nothingness and the drums would have no power to them at all. It would have all sounded really washy and the misfits probably would have been sloppy due to the fact that they wouldnt be able to hear each other either. As a fan, I am sad i didnt get to see the show, however i respect them for not accepting lower than acceptable conditions in which to play because it will only reflect on the band if they sound like shit. No one or at least very few people leave a show saying "i bet they played great...too bad the pa sucked" or anything like that. It would just be "that was shit" and I wouldnt want that either. This is the entire reasoning behind having a technical rider. There is supposed to be no problems with the club being able to handle the band, and if they do have one then they have the list of requirements well in advance so that they can prepare. I hope this helps...and i am sure that they will be back when they said. They knew people would be upset but there was nothing they could do. ****************************************************************************** Six Sins Left http://www.Geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Palms/3425 Photos, lyrics, shows, sound files and more, available at the above address!! ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 12 Sep 1997 15:56:07 -0400 (EDT) From: Undead138@aol.com Subject: Invade Boston Anyone knows when Misfits will be coming to Boston/MA area?

I've been reading the bible for years, (since #94) and I've been catching up on back issues recently. It's haphazard because I don't have a computer or e-mail. First off, let me say how I discovered the Misfits. I, too, loved Metallica's Garage Days, so in '90 I set out to get all the original versions. Got 'em, too. I remembered reading a review of Thrasher that said Last Caress came off the Beware record, so I ordered a copy through mail order. I lived in England at the time, so I got it in three days! Fucking rad! I instantly fell in love with it. Every song is a classic. Every one! It was one of my first punk records, too, so I think I got off to a good start. I got Collection I, Bullet, Die, Die My Darling, and the Ghouls Night Out boot, all on vinyl, from Tower Records London. I was blown away by how consistently good every song was. Of course most of my records turned out to be good quality bootlegs which I didn't know at the time, but the music is all I care about. Picked up Horror Business, 3 hits, and Cough Cool from various places, and I was a fan for life. I know this is getting long, but let me just say that I met Jerry in Seattle at the DV8, and he was the nicest guy ever! He signed my singles, I got my picture taken with him, and just hung out for a while. I could tell he loved the band he was in, which was why he resurrected it. Let's let him have it, and enjoy the legacy. Anyway, on to my question: When will we hear Die Die My Darling and Bullet with Googy on the drums? I know they're out there, because you can see the list of songs on Reel Platinum in the background graphic in the box set booklet. I know Warner Bros. has the tapes, so why don't they re-release Walk Among Us with extra tracks, and fix that group photo on the CD with Steele/Image to Doyle/Googy? Who's with me on this? Thanks for a great forum on a great band! Just remember, how many bands have at least 3 tribute albums made for them and untold cover versions? Not even Metallica or Led Zep can boast that!

Since last halloween, I have had the idea for this year to be a mental patient zombie. BUT...I can't seem to track down a straight jacket. I have been trying for about a year now. I haven't tried the hospital route yet. I thought of getting myself committed and just keeping the jacket when i was done, but I might miss halloween altogether then. I am a halloween freak, so I need as much help as I can get. If anyone has any ideas...please help me out. Thanks..

Curious, I asked him: "Was that the Sept 4 show that the Misfits were supposed to play at?" Then he goes on to give me this long shpeel about how he has no respect for the new Misfits and they shouldn't be touring without Glenn and this whole load of shit. Had he ever heard the Misfits? "Well, no. But I heard they sound totally different now." Well yeah, of course they sound different. It's been about 14 years since they were last together, their old main song writer is off at a rave and their new main song writer had never even heard them before he joined. Plus, is it even really all that different? If you listen to "Cough Cool" and then listen to "Earth AD", you'll notice that there is a HUGE difference in sound. I think "American Psycho" fits somewhere nicely between the two. He flubbed around a bit, muttering something about Glenn being the only real Misfit...so I beat him unmercifully and said "THAT FOR ALL THE MEGADETH FANS WHO TRY AND FUCK WITH FIENDS!!!!!!" Okay, maybe I just berated him a bit. Anyway, I thought it was interesting to see what other people are saying who don't know shit about the Misfits.

I just heard the Misfits version of 'I Got A Right' on the Iggy Pop tribute and it was fucking wicked! They sped up the song a lot, it's totally hardcore punk. Doyle (I think it's him) does a wicked solo near the end too. I liked it a lot better than anything on AP even though it wasn't their material. Micheal's voice sounds great on it too. I also heard 1969 which Jerry and Doyle do with Joey Ramone. I thought it was kind of lame, kind of rockabilly (?) but heavier. I was really surprised at this one. Does anyone know how much the 7" for 'Tight Pants' by Iggy Pop on Bomp is worth? Mail me or post it next Bible if you know. Thanks. ------------------------------ Subject: Misfits show on LI (9/12) From: davenaked@juno.com (dave naked) Date: Sat, 13 Sep 1997 10:59:24 EDT Went to the Misfits last night...not really in the mood to write a long ass review. They were great. Met Jerry before hand, he was pretty cool. They did "In the Doorway" which was fucking, fucking, incredible live. The crowd were the biggest bunch of psycho's I have EVER seen at a show...the band even knew it (During the break in Mommy, "This is where I usually tell the crowd to get rowdy...but if I said anything to you guys youd tear this place apart"). Michale is a big fucking hippocrite. He's always telling people to get all "rowdy" but if anyone touches him he gets all pissed off. During "Die..Die" he came over the barrier into the crowd. The weight of everyone kinda caved in (I was in the front, btw, a foot in front of Graves), and threw Graves into the barrier. Well, he got all pissed and walked off stage for the rest of the song. What a wuss, tho I must say a FANTASTIC live singer. Ohhhhh yeah...they did "BLITZKRIEG BOP" with Marky Ramone!!!!!!!!!!!! Chud, and Mike on voxx. Chud even came up to me and let me do a whole verse.

I take no responsibility for anything in this. It's just here for your reading pleasure. Later I'll post what Buzz and the CDT had to say. All for now. Scott Misfits, Marky Ramone return, play to loyal crowd at Crowbar By DAVID SCHONFELD Collegian Arts Writer It was Halloween 1996 all over again at Crowbar Tuesday night. Not only were punk legends The Misfits on hand to revive the spirit of last year's show at Crowbar, 420 E. College Ave., but the crowd came decked out in make-up, spikes and piercings, giving the concert the feeling of a macabre masquerade ball. "I can't believe they're back," said Brent Mosser (graduate-secondary education). "(The concert) was awesome. I'm sure they're happy to be back with the reception they got last year." In front of a raucous crowd, The Misfits played a set that lasted more than an hour and a half. Opening the show with the instrumental "Abominable Dr. Phibes" and then launching into the title track from its new album, American Psycho, The Misfits took the audience by force. While the music was more an homage to the American horror-film industry rather than Satanic practices, the rhythm incited the audience to mosh and dive from the stage. "I like the music because it's really energizing," said Scott Okrent (senior-mechanical engineering and economics). "It pumps you up." Pumped up was indeed the phrase for the band. Dressed only in tight leather pants and a black, studded weight belt, bassist and founding member Jerry Only was an imposing force on stage. Jamming on a skull-adorned bass shaped like a bat, Only made his monstrous presence known as he moved with the beat, his dyed-black forelock protruding from his head. A giant spiked drum set took up most of the stage. The band jumped around, primping and posing for the audience for a moment and then diving back into the grind of the music with this pulsing abomination as its backdrop. When the band launched into the Misfit classic, "I Turned Into a Martian," the audience swayed and vibrated as if it was ready to explode. Occasionally a fan would scramble onto the stage and dive into the swirling mass of the audience as The Misfits played a generous helping of new material as well as a nugget or two from the days when Glenn Danzig sang for the band. "I think they're just as good (without Danzig)," said Will Selleck (junior-BMB). "Good enough to hold their own." Popular in the late '70s and early '80s, The Misfits were disbanded by Danzig in 1983, who went on to form his own solo band. After the break-up, Only and Misfits' guitarist Doyle formed a band called Kryst the Conquerer. In 1994, Only won the rights to the band's name and reformed The Misfits with Doyle, drummer Dr. Chud and singer Michale Graves. American Psycho, whose title comes from a novel by Bret Easton Ellis, is the band's first album since Danzig split. "I like it," said Okrent of the new album. "It's not quite their old stuff, but I think their music will evolve." Highlights of the evening were renditions of hits like "Where Eagles Dare" and "She." The crowd would shout along, and even once a man was brought up onto the stage to sing with the band. Perhaps the most memorable moment of the evening was when Marky Ramone, formerly of The Ramones, joined The Misfits on stage to drum along with their rendition of The Ramones' "Blitzkrieg Bop." Dr. Chud had the privilege of vocals on this one as the entire bar erupted with shouts of "Hey ho, let's go." Before The Misfits played, Only was in the balcony to check out Ramone's opening band, Marky Ramone and the Intruders. He talked with the audience, signed T-shirts, hugged fans and mugged and flexed for photos. When asked how it felt to be back in the area he replied, "Cool. I love Penn State." ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 13 Sep 1997 13:50:19 -0400 (EDT) From: Labrat101@aol.com Subject: defnition: old peoples home: (noun) synonym for shooting range. i believe im speaking for all of the true fits fans when i say to all the people who have done nothing more nag the rest of us "you're a bunch of pathetic dickless losers who have nothing better to do with your time than criticize each others image based upon short text transcripts with no relavance to the misfits" especially deadite 01 who has followed into the bible fad of posting whats wrong and whats write to post on the bible, perhaps he doesn't realize thats all this mailing list has been caught up on for the past for months or maybe he's just an idiot striving for attention. Also you don't need to number you posts "we don't care," "Pozeurs, shredem up... rip them up like shredded wheat" ok now that we have that established here's what i should have been able to say in the first place: #1. if you're gonna call up radio stations and ask them to play "die die die my darling" you might as well request "devils whore house" and for the security guard you can ask them to play "london dungeon" #2. here's a helpful checklist for halloween supplies: -strike anywhere matches -lighter fluid -sugar (for gas tanks) -bee bee gun -baseball bat -butane torch -serated nife -and last but not least if you really wanna have fun bring hedge clippers and chase the little kids around -also if you do more than chase the kids bring a nice shovel #3. if anyone can shed any light upon wheter or not some fiend has photos of glenn danzing and jerry brawling please post them #4.i doubt but if anyone has got a cd bruner they're trying to sell contact me #5. I can't forget mother traresa (or how ever you spell it) you might want to request "angelfuck" #6. if you have anything to trade email me and i'll put you on my trader mailing list, if you wnat to receive it email me too closure: the old misfits were the best damn thing to happen to the music industry, the new misfits are not the misfits they're musics ok but they could have found a better way to make money aside of ripping off a good bands name and selling out and finally the qoute: "gun's take the fun out of violence while on the other hand the ice picks, chainsaws. buzzsaws, landmines, meat grinders, knives, clubs, poison, and sex are still ok for a good time" ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 13 Sep 1997 16:13:41 -0400 (EDT) From: Wisdom6724@aol.com Subject: Stupid Question I just got my Bleeder's Diegest, I'm sure you all noticed the questionaire in it.

Let's not be too hasty: > >1) We don't know what the nature of the contract was. Many bands have >P.A. specifications in their agreement. Maybe the P.A. wasn't up to spec. That was exactly the problem! The Intersection's PA only sixteen channels. The band needs like 24. If they'd played you'd only have heard half of what you were supposed to. Mark said: >> not really a bootleg then, is it. A bootleg is something made illegally without the >> consent/knowledge of the artist. > >In theory of course.... the logic is that it's Cory's design and not the >band's and is therefore not "official" although Cory has their permission. >It's just a minor misuse of terminology I guess. Ah, yes. But does the band get any of the profits from said "unofficial" shirts? If not, bootleg might be an appropriate term. As far as I can tell, Jerry isn't as violently opposed to bootlegs as, say, Glenn is (which is bullshit anyway, I've seen him sign a bootleg shirt), he just doesn't like kids shelling out a fuckload of cash for crap.

Hello you chair warmers, Dropping in again to say that tickets for Halloween have gone on sale out here in L.A., the band beloved by many will be playing with Sick Of It All. The show will be at the Palace, well that's what it says in the the L.A. Weekly. So all you L.A. fiends and from any other place around here, e-mail me and we'll meet at the show or something. At least to say hello in person. And to all the people who rag on the Misfits and the rest, stop. Old 'fits, new 'fits, fuck that: it's MISFITS. Don't dissect their lives and try to make their problems yours. I would think they have to be happy with what they do to do it in the first place. And Glenn, I respect the man for keeping true with his beliefs, what ever the hell they are. So stop making this band not fun for the rest. Leave Jerry, Doyle, Michale, CHUD, Bobby, and the rest alone.

This is not Misfits-related, but it may be important to some of you: In case you haven't heard, Raybeez passed away last night (9/11) of a viral infection. For over a decade, Raybeez was the singer for Warzone, and was the original drummer in Agnostic Front. Throughout the years, Ray was an avid supporter of local hardcore and punk bands, including mine. The news of Ray's death has left me saddened and shocked. Ray was a genuinely good human being, and I'm grateful that I knew him.

You always see these familys on Christmas who get all these nice presents, decorating trees, snow falling on the ground, that all SUCKS! We need it to be scarry. Does anyone want to sign my petition that the Misfits should make a Christmas release of a song about my favorite movie in the whole world "Silent Night, Deadly Night"?! I am working on some words now I might consider sending to them. If you've never seen Silent Night, Deadly Night.. it came out years ago and it was banned from movie theaters I think within a week after release, so I never got to see it on the big screen, but I since seen it on video hundreds of time and bought copies. A guy in a Santa Claus suit goes around killing people. There are 5 or 6 of these movies, but I think 1 and 2 are the two best.

I saw the Misfits this past Friday at a small club on Long Island. ( I was surprised that they actually played there) And I must say Michale seemed very down to earth. No studip attitude, silly dancing, or him not singing at all. he pretty much kept singing throughout the entire set, w/ us singing also. For his sake I hope he remains this way. It's to early in his career to be developing a big head. The Misfits played over an hour w/ the PA shot to shit, making everything sounding distorted. but who cares it was fuckin' great. Jerry seemed more quieter than usual. One of the encores was the "Blitzkrieg Bop" by the Ramones w/ Marky Ramone singing back-ups. I hope they come back soon. later, Groovi A Fiend for life ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 14 Sep 1997 20:48:20 -0700 From: DEVILMAN Subject: Vinyl for SALE Hell-O you Creeps!

State College, PA..9-9-97 Date: Mon, 15 Sep 1997 00:53:02 -0400 Well, here we go again.... Yes Fiends, another show review brought to you by Dungeon Master. THE SHOW....Tuesday night at the CROWBAR in State College, Pennsylvania.. The opening bands, Maximum Penalty and 'Marky ramone and the Intruders' rocked the place. Let me back up, though. We arrived at the venue several hours ahead of time..I met ********** (bible contributor) and his gang at the door there. We eyed the Winne with great anticipation and enjoyed the sound check from outside. The doors suddenly opened and out came Jerry, not in full misfits uniform, but in rather casual clothing..and I almost didn't recognize him. Of course I brought the photos of he and the gang in High School (see my site for the full deal), and he bagan laughing at them and said he remembered me from the York show. I told him of my trip to Lodi earlier that month, and to that he said "Oh..I wasn't home then..I'll be home in a few weeks..get in touch with me and let me know when you are coming back..maybe I can show you around." HOLY SHIT!!!! A guided tour..by the man..there's something to look forward to..I'll keep you posted. Well, soon after that, Doyle comes out, followed by Michale. Jerry called out to them and said "Hey this guy has pictures of us in high school!" They came over and Mike laughed at Doyle's ninth grade photo, and the one of CHUD..Doyle just said "You think that's funny?" and chuckled and went in the winnie. Having said my piece, I wished the guys well, and went in. As I made my way to the merchandise counter, I noticed a cool video on the monitor. It belonged to one of the crew and he gave me the web address to order it. It was called "Stranglemania" and it was this really outrageous no-holds-barred asian wrestling show. It was cool as hell. Check it out at http://www.insaneclownposse.com Back to the show..The openers were good too, and unlike the show in York, the PA system was awesome. Jerry was, as always, mingling with the crowd inside beforehand and during the show. When the Misfits took the stage, they opened with Dr.Phibes and exploded into American Psycho. The crowd erupted even more so than in York, and didn't let up until the show ended. During "Mommy" Mike stopped in the break of the song and said "This is usually where I have to tell all of you to get off your ass and get moving, but you guys are already fucking moving!!!" It was great. I got a lot of great shots that night, and they will be posted on my new site..yes I said **NEW SITE**. I finally got my problem solved about updating my site. I just got MSFrontPage and did it my self. It is huge already, and looks totally different. There are nearly a hundred photos on it, amd there may be more when I am done. I'll let you all know when it's done. After the show, I talked with John grimm a while and showed him and a girl at the merchandise booth named Theresa the pictures of the guys in school. They laughed at them and were both very friendly. Don't let John intimidate you. Yes, he will stomp your ass if you try to steal a shirt, but he's a very funny and friendly guy. My friend asked for his crew shirt, and John said he'd let him arm-wrestle him for it. So, off they went..Now, my friend is a BIG guy...but John just carried on a conversation with another crewmember while he won the match. geez... It was all in fun of course...Well, I made my way outside, and by now it was after 1am, and I had to be at work at 8am.Then, just after Doyle signed my trading card of him, CHUD appeared! I went over and showed him the pictures..all he could say about his photo was "Man, that guy looks GOOD!!!" and laughed a lot. We talked about all kinds of shit, and he siad my jaket looked good (see my site for a picture). I asked about his, and he said he dug up a cow to make the cool decoration...man, that's strange...not! I noticed that he sat a big box down on the side walk when he came out, and saw that it had a shitload of junkfood in it. I commented on it and said it must be his "fix for the show." He agreed and offered up some of the contents. I helped myself to a couple of snickers(tm) bars and a Dr. Pepper. My friends got a bag of Doritos and sodas. Chud said "Just don't touch the cereal or the Kit-Kats...grrrrrrr..." Hahahah! I had to laugh at that one.. At any rate, some poor girl had hitchhiked and walked almost 50miles without a ticket to see the show, and as Chud explained this, he asked me if I would take her home. Sure....but damn...she lived 50 mile in the opposite direction...oh well..she was great company and had taken some pictures of her own, so look for those soon on my site... I guess that is it for now...if this was too long for you...too bad! Go to a show and have the experiences I had and see if you don't write a post that rivals "War and Peace" in length. Big thanks going out to Mark at Misfits Central, HorrorKid at the Horror Hotel, and all the others helping me with this new site. But most of all....Thanx to Jerry. Without him, we would be talking about what a great band the misfits WERE. Now, we can all enjoy the music again! NEVER FORGET THAT!

Date: Mon, 15 Sep 1997 01:07:27 -0400 First off....the show was in YORK, PENNSYLVANIA...several fiends have inquired about that, so there it is.. Next, to those that sent their money...have no fear...only a slight delay...My good VCR duplicating system bit the dust last week, forcing me to do them one at a time..I won't cash the checks untill they are ready to be mailed. This week for sure. Don't get excited...I don't want to ruin the original with generational loss from constant replay, so now I have to find a new duplicator. If anyone has any leads on video duplication....gimme a shout. Come see the new "London Dungeon" soon...Pictures from York and State college. If anyone out there has any exceptionally good photos from shows past or present, drop me a line. I am looking for any pics like that to post on my site.

I got two responses from 120minutes, the first response was from someone who worked on the show, that said they never received the video, but they were getting a lot of e-mail about it. The second was from someone who said they saw the video and that it was really cool, but it took a lot of searching around to find it. This person then commented that a lot of people who work on 120Minutes were big misfits fans, and did not know that the video existed, but he/she would do what they could to play the video on the show , and that I should keep watching. He said the best way to see videos on the show is to make some "noise". So they are not deleting it at all. I think anyone else like me, who wants to see this video should continue to e-mail them. As i am writing this i have 120Minutes on and they played a video by Bow Wow Wow, and Matt Pinfield mentioned that he has received many e-mails for them and that's why they played it..

They said they've left several messages, but the INTERSECTION never calls back. If you want to see THE UNDEAD at the INTERSECTION, call them and say so. The same goes for Louisville, KY. I don't know which club we were supposed to play down there, but at first the promoter was quite excited about having us play. She even went on to tell the woman at SHOCK that her boyfriend is the guitar tech for THE MISFITS and they were gonna be in town the next day. Suddenly she's lost all intereest in booking THE UNDEAD. Yet, Jerry insists he's not telling clubs not to book THE UNDEAD. This is the same bullshit I had to put up with in the '80's from THE MISFITS, and this time no one can say it's Glenn calling the shots. Back then, I had several promoters tell me . . .after the FITS had broken up, that they had been told in so many words that, 'you can see how many people the FITS can bring. You can take your chances with THE UNDEAD, but if you do, don't expect to have THE MISFITS back'. It's subtle, but it works. This is the sign of a "chickenshit". Let's not let it happen again. If this is, by any chance, the case - if the promoter feels that they'll be able to do as well on an UNDEAD show, they won't cower to any threats. So let them know that you'll support THE UNDEAD equally as well as THE MISFITS and maybe we'll see a change. to Tim Herrman: Sorry about the wrong name. I was just looking at the name in your addy. I stand corrected. It'll never happen again . . . I hope. ; ) ------------------------------ From: Exoflalius Niemenfleck Date: Mon, 15 Sep 1997 10:22:41 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #379 > From: Zac Imboden > Subject: a few questions > > When will we hear Die Die My Darling and Bullet with Googy on the > drums?

Hey Zac - what makes you think those tracks were recorded with Googy? Look at it closely again, and then (if you have them) flip through some Thrasher back issues from '86/'87. Around that time, Glenn was planning to release a 15 song greatest hits LP called "Misfits - Enter At Your Own Risk." Glenn mentioned this at least twice in old Thrasher issues. Those 15 songs, all previously released versions, are listed there in the box set, and that's what you see. Eventually, Glenn compiled Collection and Collection II instead. Warner Brothers HAS reissed Walk Among Us on cassette and CD, this time with a Slash/London Records label, although the CD still has that same photo. However, Warner Brothers DOES have the original 13 song album master for Walk Among Us with the Googy version of "Die Die" although there never was a recording with Googy for "Bullet." -- Does anyone have an Antidote "The Shalt Not Kill" 7"? How about a Judge "Chung King Can Suck It" LP? Here are the UNCONFIRMED UNCONFIRMED UNCONFIRMED Misfits dates I have found through TicketMaster and Pollstar.

JERRY WILL ALWAYS LIVE IN GLENN'S SHADOW!!!!!!! jerry says that he doesn't want to have anything to do with glenn, well why did he try to get him to rejoin the band????? because jerry knows that glenn will always out do him. jerry knows that he will never be as famous as glenn is. don't worry, i won't bother any of you again, i promise. i won't even bother looking at marks stupid web page. the next time any of you run into jerry, tell him that i said that he'll never be as good as glenn is, and that he ruint the misfits' name. and the next time you all decide to bash on glenn, just remember that if it weren't for glenn, there would be no misfits' bible or a jerry only!!!! ricky ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 15 Sep 1997 13:12:25 -0800 From: Neil McAllister Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #379 >Date: Mon, 15 Sep 1997 02:54:29 -0700 >From: Danzig@Plan-9.com (Glenn Danzig) >Subject: I'm back.... > >I'll be coming out with a new album in the spring. > >Also, look for me soon in the Prophecy II, with Christopher Walken. > >|==========================================| >|A bootleg is an ILLEGAL recording of an artist's work, | >| done WITHOUT the artist's permission. | >| It is ILLEGAL to sell a bootleg in the United States. | >| The artist gets NO money from the sale of a bootleg. | >|==========================================| > Glenn Danzig O-ho-HO!

Legal squabbles. Nobody arguing about who owes who what was in the court when Jerry and Glenn settled their dispute. If they can do it, why can't we fiends? It doesn't matter who sings for the 'Fits as long as they *can* sing, and Graves is doing a fine job. 2. P.A. Syatems revisited. Thanks to the person in Grand Rapids who gave us the real view of the situation. If a band is dicked out of their contract on the road they're supposed to just take it? Jerry will do anything to accomodate the fans except compromise the band make them sound like shit. Sorry it happened to you kids but they will be back and I'm sure they'll find a way to make it up to you. Blame the club for not meeting their end of the contract. 3. The Misfits played in my hometown last weekend ad it just ruled. Maximum Penalty opened, and Marky Ramone & the Intruders followed. The 'Fits played well despite being on a small stage (Doyle used only 4 of his 8 cabinets). While Jerry, Mike, and Chud (along with some of the guys in Maximum Penalty lifted weights outside the club, I helped the road crew set up, mostly in the area of putting Chud's kit together. The set is huge. And those spikes are *very* sharp. I got to put them all in. I also got my copy of the movie "Night of the Living Dead" autographed just for the hell of it. I was hoping to sit in and jam with Jerry and Doyle during soundcheck, but the PA at the club was causing problems so it took longer than expected to check. The 'Fits liked my tattoo (American Nightmare) and my friend's Misfits tattoo that I designed for him. Some of the road crew took cards from us and will end up getting inked by the guy who does my work. I also got to see the Dig Up her Bones video, and I'm in it. If you wanna see me, I'm in the second chorus- it's a crowd shot from the right side of the stage (so you see my left side and half my face) and I'm the fat kid without a shirt on. They also are doing an all-live video for American Psycho from that show, so I might be in that too.. Fuckin A cool. We ran into the 'Fits again at the pizza place down the street, which happens to be the best pizzeria in New London. The Misfits played a great set. There was NO stage security. It was chaos. I hung up front and got landed on one too many times, so I took a break then went back for more. They took alot of requests too... Marky joined them on drums and Chud sang Blitzkrieg Bop, and they also did Here Today, Gone Tomorrow, with Michale singing. After the show, we hung out for a while and got our pictures taken with Jerry. I asked him a question about the videos and while signing my Crimson Ghost shirt he said he didn't know if he was gonna release them on home vid or not... The funny thing is that I didn't ask him to sign it. He was in automated autograph mode.. heheh. All in all, a great time, and a great bunch of fellaz.

I was flipping through the channels when I saw(just another way of saying I'm ashamed to have been watching) Wrestling so I stopped to see if anything good was happening and they introduced a tag-team called 'The Head Bangers' and they came out wearing kilts and Morbid Angel and Green Day t shirts, and then they anounced their names, Mosh and Crusher, then, when you thought it couldn't get any cheesier they showed a video of them at a baseball game fighting a mascot and one of them was wearing a Misfits shirt. That doesn't mean it wasn't one of the stupidest things I've ever seen but I guess it makes it a little better. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Sep 1997 00:14:55 -0700 (PDT) From: Daniel Herrmann Subject: An Undead Sighting, and some observations 1) I was watching "A Year and a Half in the Life of Metallica", keeping a close eye the shirts they were wearing. Of course we all know they've worn Misfits, Samhain, and Danzig shirts, but how 'bout the Undead? Kirk Hammett was wearing a white Undead shirt. It was REAL quick, so I'm not sure the design, but I think the lettering was red. It was shown twice in the documentary, most noticable during the video for "Nothing Else Matters". Just thought I'd share that. 2) Wow. It seems Ricky (or plushie) is on a course to break the record set by Blag, in pissing off the MOST amount of people in the SHORTEST period of time. At least Blag could spell... 3) I got a Danzig Blackacidevil patch in the mail today. It was sent to me free by Will Knapp, the National Director of Promotion for Hollywood Records. For anyone interested in getting one, email me and I'll let you know how... Maybe :) 4) Speaking of Danzig, what'd everybody think about his post? Sort of odd... -TiM ------------------------------ Subject: CG hits the headlines Date: Tue, 16 Sep 97 11:24:06 +0100 From: Lee Bullock To all British Fiends Check out yesterday's(Mon.15th) copy of 'The Sun'.

There's a punk band called "Midget Sperm Bank" that has a song about the classic film Silent Night Deadly Night. Second, I noticed the Undead tour dates on the news page, will the Undead be playing in the Boston area eventually?

AMERICAN PSYCHO (a different version) to the tune of AMERICAN NIGHTMARE ------------------------------------------------------- Hot jerk off on a school night With the door locked very tight I put AP in the boom box A good times not far in sight When will I fucking learn American Psychos not that bad I should have been there for them I should have been there from the start I should have been there from the start, hey When will I fucking learn American Psychos not that bad Heading down the shopping aisle To the M-I-S section If I don't insult them the Bible will But not because I'm bright Dose this crack trip ever end American Psychos not that bad Heading down the shopping aisle To the M-I-S section If I don't insult them the Bible will But not because I'm bright Will this crack trip ever end American Psychos not that bad Anyway my musical talents are not that of Michale, Glen or the fits, but i had to write it. And if you don't like the Misfits now. Then the bibles not the place for you. This is something to support the Misfits. Not to insult them. And if you have nothing better to do on the internet, try checking out some kiddy porn you inbreed Barbie rapes.

The 1st time I ever saw the Legacy of Brutality - CD it had a spine on the back with Misfits written on it and on the front it had a vampire bat skeleton and some other skeleton stuff, and red fonts for the name of the songs. What the hell was this CD? Have you ever seen it or heard about this version? ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Sep 1997 14:57:23 -0500 From: jfautsch@icaen.uiowa.edu Subject: The skinny on the Lancaster show Alright now for the real, real scoop. I previously lived in Lancaster Pennsylvania, where the apparant York show was held at the Chameleon club- it's not york, it's Lancaster. But a stupid point regardless. Now for the real scoop. My friend owns the punk vinyl shop there - Corrupted Image records, which took over the local scene after Web of Sound records went under due to mismanagement and such. This kid in his late twenties and after graduating college decided to commit himself to the punk scene. He's had this store for about four years now - and decided to get the Misfits for a for show. Well he got um,, they came - got all parts of their contracts filled- even the courtesy part with fru fru towels and other bullshit. They got all their money, plus a % of the door. But almost cancelled because thge monitors were not up to par. I'm not talking about the system they have at the Chameleon, just the monitors. I just read all these people posting like they know what they are talking about - and don't kid yourself, they didn't play for the fans, they came ultra close to backing out. The owner of CI had to run aroound town for half the day fucking around with shit, only to return to their announcement of a cancellation. He begged, and they gave in. The Misfits play for the soul of the almighty dollar now. I still love their music as much as ever. But there is no denying that the spirit has changed, and that these guys have dollar signs in their eyes. For all you fucks that think I am trying to spark a debate on the morality of the misfits - I am not, because i could give a rats ass as to how they act. If money, a head of lettuce, or the Dali Lama motivate the Misfits I don't care, I'll still go see them. But I am saying that I would be ashamed to be touring the country with such a well established punk tradition such as the Misfits, whining that my pussy hurt because this real punk rocker who's promoting and obviously doing his best to get the job done, couldn't hook them up with their choice of monitors. For anyone who needs a video of that show, let me know, you'll also notice that the club is probably one of the nicer venues the Misfits are in. The spirit of the old fits is dead, but the music continues. And that is what this whole- old fits - new fits thing is about. Everybody knows that there is something missing. And it's not Glenn, or whatever, it's the spirit. email me for the vid- I'm not charging a thing if you pay for postage and send me a tape. -christmas cards to which I don't reply J ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Sep 1997 17:43:27 -0500 Subject: ***HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOYLE!!!*** From: grim-raper@juno.com (Greenwatch Link) HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOYLE!!!HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOYLE!!!HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOYLE!!!HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOYLE!!!HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOYLE!!!HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOYLE!!!

First of all, I thought the post from glenn was a sign of good faith no matter how brief. at least we know he still reads it from time to time. Glenn, if you're reading this, welcome back. not it is time for me to stoop to someone else's level and throw around a few choice phrases like idiot, moron, jizbag and test tube mistake. Dearest Ricky. My hometown is Austin,Texas. if you live anywhere near me (say 500 mile radius) E-mail me and we will see just how bad ass you really are. this shit has gotten out of hand. (of course I realize I am probably talking to a fifteen year old pre-pubescent little brat that thinks he's hot shit, but hey, I'm off work and I don't really have anything better to do on a Monday night)You sound pretty sure of your self, let's see if there is any vim in your venom, you silly little shit. I have been "involved"shall we say in an all out punk lifestlye for a number of years ( that means before green day to you) and though I am now quite involved in the rockabilly scene, i'm pretty hard to miss. You see, Ricky, as a punk, there are only so many things one can do (especially in a small Texas town) to make money. I personally took up security. I am a bouncer (in laymans terms ) on the weekends and a mechanic on the week days. I am pretty sure I would not only beat your ass, but humiliate you in front of your girl (if you swing that way), drink all your beer, steal your car and sell it to buy your mama some teeth. so in short form Fuck me? NO,FUCK YOU! you pointy headed high school fuck. I am sure that alot of us that are true to the school would enjoy you're absence here on the bible. I only read it because it relaxes me after work, and alot of these people have something to say that is worth listening to. you on the other hand piss me off to no end, and I think I would rather enjoy destroying you. goodnight, ARLO 2.1.76. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Sep 1997 21:41:39 -0400 (EDT) From: Im1204@aol.com Subject: Jerry and Dr. Chud were at Tower Records(NYC) what's up fiends? I just got back from the Iggy Pop Tribute signing at Tower Records in the Village(NYC). I didn't even know about the signing and I didn't even know who was going to show up. I just bought my CD and stood on line. I thought it was going to be an Iggy signing. Little did I know that Joan Jett, Joey Ramone, Lenny Kaye, Monster Magnet, Lunachicks, Blanks 77, D-Generation, and THE MISFITS were going to show up. Anyway, I waited on line and who do I see? Jerry Only walking down Broadway. Picture a whole bunch of yuppies, wannabe fashion models, hip hop heads just walking down the street. Now throw Jerry in the picture. It was so surreal but very cool. It was around 6:30 PM and the signing was about to begin. I also saw Dr. Chud walk in the store. The signing started around 7:00 and you can probably imagine the madness. Dr. Chud and Jerry Only were wedged in between Joan Jett, Joey Ramone and Blanks77(Mike and Renee). When I got up to Jerry I asked him if he had taken a subway to the store and he just told me that someone dropped him off. I also asked, "When are we gonna see the Dig Up Her Bones video?Everybody can't wait to see it." Jerry said that it would be on 120 Minutes(MTV) on the 28th. Well, there you have it. Oh, and before I go I just wanna say that the Iggy CD rocks. You all probably know by now that the Misfits cover "I Got A Right" and Jerry And the Dr. play on Joey Ramone's version of "1969." ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Sep 1997 21:03:43 -0600 From: deadboy@wwdg.com Subject: for trade HEY FIENDS!!

Hey there fiends! I went to the August 30th show at the Rock here in Tucson. It was an amazing show! In the past year, I've seen both Kiss and Sabbath, but this Misfits show was the best I've seen! Helldriver and N-17 opened, both AZ bands. Helldriver is pretty cool punk and N-17 sounds like Marilyn Manson if Manson was doing White Zombie Covers. Anyway, the Fits ruled. Graves is an awesome frontman, and he really didn't do all those things everyone accuses him of doing, ie not singing, acting like some "cock rocker". I thought he kicked much ass. Well, they didn't play Halloween, and I was hoping to hear the song from the Scream 2 soundtrack, but oh well. They did, however, play Braineaters, which really surprized me since I was under the impression that they all hated that song. All the AP stuff was great. I really didn't like the way they did Some Kinda Hate or 138 though. In fact, they kinda fucked those two up. Anyway, I met all of em except Doyle afterwards and got pics ( which I'll post somewhere sometime in the future), had em sign my AP vinyl, and got a couple of questions answered from Jerry on tape. Those will be up sometime too. If anyone out there can help me get em up on WAV files, that would rule! I read in the last Bible that the Fits were coming to Tempe Oct 29. Is this true? Are they playing the Electric Ballroom? Who's with em? Anyone know? Lemme know. Okay, and now some kinda non related stuff. I've just started a label called SHOKHAUS Records, and I'm selling a lot of records of mine to get it going. I have some Misfits vinyl, and a lot of old/new hardcore/punk/metal and other stuff, loads of 7" and 12". Write me if you are interested. Also, any serious bands out there, we're going to be doing compilation CDs, and we're charging a $250 fee for inclusion. You get 20 copies, and we distribute the hell out of it, and give em away for free. So that's it, check out the label page at http://members.aol.com/Shkhsmtl/metal.html and email me if you's interested in the records. Any Tucson fiends out there?
