I haven't seen the video, myself, but I am curious about it. IT sounds like it might actually be interesting. Styrofoam gravestones - why not ? A kinder, gentler bible ? This is ridiculous. Jerry says he won't come on here unless you start to act nice. I wasn't afraid to take the heat from you when I first came on here 18 months ago - and if you were around back then, you know, I got a lot - and I faced it like a man. I challenged you to confront me with the rumours - and responded. What's Jerry hiding from ? Is he afraid to have to tell you why he's holding out on the money owed to me and Joey Image, or is he afraid of being asked which of the several different versions of his stories about me and Glenn is true ? The truth doesn't fear light. That's why I came on here. Now Jerry expects everyone to just say "we love you Jerry". "What's your favorite color?" The reason Glenn stopped talking about THE MISFITS was because interviewers started calling him out on his contradictions. I feel the bible was set up so you sould learn more about THE MISFITS, whether it be good or bad. ZERBONIA said: >and gys, get over it. If Danzig cared enought to be witht he misfits, >would be, wouldnt he. He is a control freak... and no, you all cant >it, because i got credits to songs that will tell you, Danzig did it all >because he wanted all the power. I dont care how much you hate jerry or >love Glenn, you cant defeat cold hard facts. Glenn created THE MISFITS. He got all the songwriting credit because, believe it or not, he WROTE it all. He didn't WANT all the power. He had the talent and the vision - and most of us respected that fact. Jerry wanted CONTROL. He manipulated Glenn by fucking with his insecurity. Did you read the latest FLIPSIDE interview. Jerry alludes to this fact in there. For a little more insight, you should all read SECONDS #44. It has back-to-back interviews with both Glenn and Jerry . . . and Glenn talks about THE MISFITS (I wonder what they slipped in his drink to get him to do that). Glenn say he never wanted me. In other interviews Jerry says HE didn't want me. It sounds like COLLECTION 2. In this same issue, Jerry talks about the LONDON DUNGEON incident. I don't know if anyone's seen this yet. To summarize, he says that a buhch of skinheads started a fight with Glenn, and I RAN AWAY ! What's wrong with this sentence ? Can you picture Bobby Steele . . . who's too crippled to kick his way out of a coffin (in Jerry's words) actually outrunning a bunch of skinheads ? Now he'll have to cover his tracks by saying, "oh yeah, I forgot to mention that the skinheads were all hobbled and in wheelchairs - that's why Bobby was able to outrun them". Keep talking Jerry. Soon enough you won't even have the credibility of a priest in a strip club. On a more positive note; the east coast tour has run into a few minor snags, but they should be worked out by next week - and I'll have Mark post the info. The CBGB's show is confirmed for November 14th w/THE INDEPENDENTS and C.J. RAMONE's band LOS GUSANOS. There'll be people from Columbia and Epic Records there - so I'm hoping for a full house so I can show them that we've still got it. To all Australian Fiends, a petition is being passed around in several cities - to get THE UNDEAD to play down there. It'll be presented to SHOCK RECORDS in order to convince them that we have a strong enough following to warrant their support for such a tour. If you need info on where to sign one of these petitions . . . email me and I'll get it to you. >Date: Thu, 9 Oct 1997 21:16:30 -0400 (EDT) >From: Blag1jesus@aol.com >Subject: Horrorkid....

Brough" Subject: all this new "MISFITS" is making me ill. LOOK, i really dont even bother with any of this American Psycho or whatever. I heard it, I hate it, and this is NOT the MISFITS. I am terridly sorry, but everyone needs to MOVE ON!! The MISFITS can never be rekindled or replaced so I don't see why anyone bothers trying. I think what irks me the most is that NO ONE should be allowed to sing any REAL Misfits songs except GLENN FUCKIN' DANZIG. ok? My deepest apologies if I have offended anyone but this actually bothers the hell out of me. Nothing classic can be replaced, so give it up. - CRYMSON ------------------------------ From: John Keith Subject: Anthony Wyzykowski Date: Fri, 10 Oct 1997 00:21:11 -0000 Anthony Wyzykowski likes The Misfits.

It is a werid and kind of ironic. He has the same square jaw and everythilng. Oh well...just somehthing that i noticed. _________ I wasn't going to bring this up, but since someone kind of already touched on it, I will. I struct me kind of funny that in all the grave yard seens Micheal neither had his hair in a devilock, nor did he have his face painted. The way they had his hair combed straight down, the way they always shot his face from pretty much the same angle, and the fact that the rest of the time most of ther rest of him was behind the grave, made it look to me like they were trying to pawn Graves off as Danzig. Maybe it's just me, but this is what I saw (I'm not saying I think that Graves looks like Danzig, I'm just saying I think they wanted you to think that he looks like Danzig. Sort of he's the same, but different type philosophy.) Also, I'm not a big fan of the 138 sightings, but I haven't seen this one posted anywhere yet, and I think it's particularly good, so here it is: Go to your local toy store, and where they keep ther sporting goods look for the Vortex or Vortex Screamer football. It says right on the package "For ages 5 to 137) I guess what they're trying to say is, when your 138 years old, YOUR TOO DAMN OLD TO BE PLAYING FOOTBALL. The question that strikes my mind is how many 138 year olds want to play football(or, how many 138 year olds are there?)

Making more money in one night, than the Fits will >make on the whole tour!!! Very true... but according to your theory of what makes one band better than another (ie revenue generation) you must be an awfully big Garth Brooks fan. Still, I'm sure if Jerry & Doyle had the surname Gallagher and decided to form a (poor) Beatles tribute band instead of being part of something INNOVATIVE, they might have faired better in the $$$ stakes. >I was reading an interview with Dani of Cradle of Filth and they were >talking about Black Metal and he said "Essentially we are Black Metal but >I consider bands like Mercyful Fate and even bands like Misfits as being >Black Metal because they all pertain to atmospheres." Anyone who mentions M**cyful F*te in the same context as the Misfits could only be the kind of person that'd wind up putting 'Jesus Is A C*nt' on their band's T-shirts. As there appear to be some, I have a question for the COF fans... if they're sooooo scary and evil, why does their singer have a girl's name? Re: the issue of the continuation of the Misfits 'horror' image. I personally think the Misfits are the only band other than KISS that carry off a full scale 'image' without looking too stupid. Much as I love the Misfits, take away the image and I think you'd turn an awful lot of people off. In fact, take any band that's ever had an identifiable image, each time they've gone 'straight', they've lost their audience... KISS, Twisted Sister, Crimson Glory (haha). >From my experience of the new line up, when I first saw them at the London Astoria a year or so ago Michale Graves didn't have his image figured out properly and Jerry & Doyle looked like they had in the late 80's. When I saw them back at the start of this year they all looked great and it really added to the show. If they were using flashpots and confetti cannons then maybe I'd think otherwise but the image as it stands is fairly unique and works well. Plus, it allows Jerry FAR more scope for merchandising :) BTW, anyone else noticed that Mr Only seems to be losing some of his more, er, surplus bulk lately? One last thing... I know a few people on here are helping with this at the moment but 20 Eyes are better than two. If ANYONE sees a copy of an album by 'Dear Mr President' (self titled) I will pay top $ plus postage plus a 'finder's fee' for a copy. I would prefer CD or Vinyl but cassette (or even a dubbed copy) would be OK. The album was released on Warner Bros. during the late 80's and so there must be some copies still around. If anyone can help I'd be very grateful... y'never know, maybe some of you have it lurking in your collections and have been thinking 'Why in the hell did I buy THIS piece of shit?' for the past 10 years. Take care, Julian ------------------------------ From: "zerbonia" Subject: Clear up some things... Date: Fri, 10 Oct 1997 06:40:10 -0500 I feel i should clear up my post from the last bible. I was wrong in saying that Danzig is a control freak. I am not wrong in saying that Danzig needs to listen to his band members ideas a bit more. I STILL respect Danzig and all his work. I have nothing bad to say about graves because Ive only heard one album... and I love it. Anyway, we should all co-exist together on here. They were and are misfits, and isnt that one of the best things to be? heheh Citizen V - zerbonia@nemonet.com "There is not black, asian, latino, white, man or woman... we are all one thing: FiENDS!!!" ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 10 Oct 1997 08:37:23 -0400 (EDT) From: Deathtrot@aol.com Subject: Tempe, AZ show A few things... I was just wondering if there are any fiends from Tucson who are going up for the October 29th show at the Electric Ballroom in Tempe who would be willing to give me a ride! I can pitch in on some gas $$$. Hopefully someone who doesn't drink and drive, and is planning on coming back after the show. PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP if anyone can give me a ride! I desperately want to go, but I can't afford to buy a bus ticket there and back. Thanks to the people who mailed me in response to my post about the video. It's good to know that some people are part of the bible who actually are supportive fans of the Misfits! In the last bible, someone had a post that said something like "I saw a real band called Oasis who make more in one show than the Fits do on a whole tour." What's up with that? I think Oasis are a pretty damn cool band, but the Misfits aren't any less of a "real band" just because they don't make as much money. If that were the case, then I guess Puff Daddy and Beck are more of a band than the Misfits, Samhain and Danzig all put together, right?! Wrong! I'm not trying to start shit, but that was a pretty pointless post. And anyway, do you think 20 years down the road people are gonna conider Oasis one of the most influential bands in Rock history? I doubt it. About the Horror Hotel/London Dungeon thing... they're both kick ass sites. That's all that matters. They both provide us fiends with a cool place to visit on the web. I've talked with the Horror Kid a few times via email, and he seems like a real swell fella. I hope there is no more shit between the two webmasters. Hmmm, the Misfits without the make-up and everything. No sir, I don't like it! True, the real backbone of the band is the great music, but it all goes together. It's a lot more fun to see bands like the Misfits, Kiss, Gwar, and the few bands who still enjoy putting on a show for their fans than seeing some depression rock weenee staring at the ground and barely even aknowledging the audience's existence. Does anyone have anything they wanna contribute to my small Misfits page I'm starting. I'm not gonna fill it up with graphics and stuff, just mostly my reviews and maybe some stuff from some of you. E-mail me and let me know! Finally, I just want to say that I hope everyone realizes what a great thing Mark has going here. A lot of people probably take it for granted, but it's great to be able to interact with other fiends in a usually positive environment. So cheers to Misfits Central and the Bible!!!!! Again, PLEASE! SOMEONE! GIMME A RIDE TO TEMPE!!!!! Later all!

I Yep, it's on the "Bullet" 7", the BEWARE version, and the various compilations and bootlegs from over the years... it is kind of weird to hear it without the 1-2-3-4, and it used to throw me off too. It seems that then they mixed the STATIC AGE album, they didn't want any of the cool introductory stuff.

Also, > what's with Googy's head in that picture? It looks retouched or Around that time, Googy had dyed white hair, sort of like Billy Idol. Apparently his hair blended in with the background of the photo and when they (the people at Slash Records) were cutting out the band photo, they couldn't tell where his head was. They only had older pictures of Googy from back when he had a shaved head, so they cut his head that way. > Also, does anyone have any info on the outtakes from the Ghouls Night > Out album?

O.K. I subscribe to a newsletter that I beleive will fill my life with more Misfits info than a person could possibly need. I read the first issue I recieve, and everyone is bitching about how sucky Graves is and how he doesn't compare to Glenn. Whell, by Goddess, Graves is better than Glenn and I'm not afraid to admit it. I personally own every song the 'Fits put out, I losten to American than any other of there albums. I really love the earlier stuff, but the new album really has the feel of a band who are in synch, and are working together for the love of the music. And to me, that is the most important thing that music needs today. And the DUHB video was amazing.

I just wanted to say thank you to Gigantor, and Horrorkid for somewhat backing me up on my "Danzig doesn't suck, I just choose to listen to other music" from the bible #388. Mr. Devilman138, I hold no grudges against you. That's grade school stuff, and I've been out of school for almost 10 years now. If you like Danzig so much, do something positive with that admirement, and start a Danzig Bible. Then, you could set the standards for that particular subject(s). This is the Misfits bible, and we (the fiends) joined to talk about the misfits (old and new). LIke I stated before, I've seen Glenn with samhain, and Danzig. now, I'm going to see the Misfits. That's all..Nothing more, nothing less. If I'd have know my post was going to get people angry, (or person, since you were the only one that griped about my post) I would have just kept my mouth shut..If you can't say anything nice, it's really best to not say anything at all. And, saying I didn't like Blackacidevil wasn't an act of war. it was an opinion. That is all And that's all I have to say about that. --====-- ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 10 Oct 1997 20:05:04 -0400 From: "J.P. Dupuis" Subject: re: NO MAKEUP?! --CHRIS WROTE: In response to JP DuPuis' post in the last bible, I must say, are you MAD, man? The Misfits' image is one of the most distinctive out there, and to me at least is an essential part of their whole ethos along with the horror imagery in their lyrics. If you take away the makeup something intangibly cool would vanish...a LOT of their character would go away. They still write great tunes, but to me it wouldn't be the same to see Jerry Only standing onstage in jeans and a tshirt with a Fender bass--the extra something would be gone. I prefer the makeup and costumes because they add something that so many trendy bands lack as well as talent;ORIGINALITY. Nobody out there looks like them and I'd rather see them stick to their guns and look as ghoulish as ever as opposed to potentially falling into the morass of identical bands wearing jeans&tshirts--besides, Jerry would look pretty funny in mundane garb onstage, frankly! (Nothing personal, Jerry!) I'd rather see the leather, spikes, makeup, DEVILOCKS, and custom guitars and basses stay... I don't have cable (a GOOD thing!), so I missed out on the DUHB video...MTV will probably never show it again because the Misfits are not one of their trendy darling bands like No Doubt. I'm glad some of you out there taped it, I'll have to get a copy from one of you it seems. Thanks for printing this, Mark! That's a good point, but if you think about it, would say... KISS have lasted as long as they have if they stuck with the makeup? The custom instruments are great, they shouldn't change a thing. I've never seen the Misfits live, I discovered them through the music they play and I've never seen the DUHB video (I get 4 snowy channels on my TV). I'm sure there are ways of looking ghoulish. Let's face it, the Misfits are a band reborn and maybe they need a facelift. I don't think Jerry would look that great in jeans and T-Shirts, but what's wrong with say leather pants and a tatoo covered body. That's my two cents, I don't think they should go GreenDay, but there are other ways of looking scary than dressing up like Dracula on stage.

Still gossiping and bickering, I see. Someday I will continue my Movies For Fiends lists but for now I am just too busy..couldn't resist the trivia challenge, however! Who is Maila Nurmi? The gorgeous and beautiful...the one and only..dark and lovely..my mentor and Goddess....VAMPIRA!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2) Name the one movie that Vincent Price and Elvis Presley were in together and what year did it come out? This is too scary for me to touch..It wasn't BEACH PARTY or CLAM BAKE...fuck it...I am not getting into this. Too scary! 3) Who played Dracula in the very first Dracula movie? Max Shreck in NOSFERATU (1922) (Bonus 3 points What was Dracula named in the movie and what was the name of the movie? Just to make this a real challenge, 5 more Bonus points if you can tell why they named Dracula another name other than Count Dracula?) He was called Count Orlock because German filmmaker F.W. Murnau changed the names and incidents of the Bram Stoker's story trying to make the public believe it was his own original. He was sued by Stoker's widow who recognized the similarities. 4) What actor played a character in both versions of Tower of London and name the two characters he played? (Bonus 4 points what numbers were the two movies in the actors career, example was it his 28 and 85 movies made. also what movie companies made each version of the movie? Vincent Price drowns in wine in the 1939 version (no character name, just cousin something..I lose a point) and plays Richard III in the 1962 version. 5) Brains at every single meal, you know the song, well what was the movie, what year did it come out and describe the creature? (Bonus 3 points What novel was the movie based on and who wrote it?) FIEND WITHOUT A FACE (1958) It looks a like a brain with a spinal cord attached and it will be my next tattoo...(right next to my J-Sin/Jerry hybrid tat) no bonus points for me on this one.

Anyone who has my FIRST posting of Movies For Fiends please be a doll and send it to me so I can keep it in my files with the rest! ------------------------------ From: "Christopher Pineau" Subject: Why Can't We just Grow Up? Date: Fri, 10 Oct 1997 18:13:54 PDT Underworld Scum's post in #390 made perfect sense to me. I think one of the reasons the Misfits don't post on the Net or on the bible is just because very few who post here seem capable of expressing their opinions in a mature, adult fashion. Yeah, yeah, I know, you gotta be "punk" and give us the UNDILUTED VISCERAL VERSION of your thoughts on the Misfits, steaming hot from the bowels of your fevered brains, right? Right...and make fools of yourselves in the process while you're at it. Nothing personal against the likes of Arlo, whom I think expresses himself in a very direct and uncluttered fashion, mind you. But really, do you lot think that cursing and flaming the band we all supposedly love so much is going to make them come back and talk to us online? No it won't. They have better things to do, as someone else said elsewhere in the bible, and all the whining in the world will not change things unless certain of us here grow up and try to learn how to express ourselves properly. Case in point: To respond to Ronnie Biggs' post, sorry mate, but Oasis are a very unoriginal band who rip off numerous ideas from the more psychedelic Beatles and Stones albums...in my honest opinion they are painfully average and not worthy of being called a "real" band. On top of that I find them boring and Liam Gallagher's three-note vocal range grates on my nerves. See what I mean? That is what I would consider a more intelligent and original way of disagreeing with someone instead of saying "FUCK YOU OASIS SUXX YOU STUPID FAGGOT" or something charming to that effect. BTW, that IS how I feel about them, Ronnie, sorry... And my good gracious!!! A COHERENT post from Blag?? Miracles happen every day, I guess.....Thanks Mark, sorry this was so long! But c'mon folks, can't we just try to grow up here?? --CHRIS ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 10 Oct 1997 21:39:40 -0400 (EDT) From: DrLillen@aol.com Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #391 On black aria, What does cwn awnn and the morrigu mean.

It seems many still dwell on the Glenn vs. Jerry debate, and I have a new take (if not new, so what). Maybe one of the reason they don't talk is because they used to be friends. In one of the interviews on Mark's page, Glenn says something to the extent of "the Misfits being him and Jerry" and so on. Maybe, if he and Jerry were still friends, they would have done something admirable. Think about it, having a good friend, whom you connect with on many levels, and then a few years later, you both wander away from each other to the point where your differences get in the way of the friendship. I would be mad too. But alas, I nor anyone else here in the Bible is in or was in the Misfits (Bobby excluded from this statement) so we can't say what they should and shouldn't be doing. And speaking of Glenn, I just found a tape which I thought I'd lost and it has a Misfits related story which he tells, but I'll post that later. Glenn is playing at the Whisky in L.A. on Halloween but the advertisement says BlackAcidEvil...cool, huh? I'm still gonna go see the Misfits. Warm Regards, Nick Fiend ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 10 Oct 1997 23:32:53 -0600 From: Shell Subject: SAMHAIN and HALOWEEN. Hey Well, evidently, someone asked what Samhain was. WELL O WAS EAING IN A RESTURANT AND PICKE UP THE TIDBITS magazine and it had halloween stuff in it... heres what it said-_- "The New Year of the ancient Celts in Great Britian and Ireland began on November 1. Their celebration began the night before, on October 31, and honored the Celtic lord of death, whose name is SAMHAIN. It was their beleif that SAMHAIN permitted the souls of the dead to visit their earthly homes for one night per year. After the Celts became christians hundreds of years later, the Church declared November 1 as "All Saints' Day", and dedicated a Mass that day reffered to as "Allhallowmass". Thus, October 31 came to be known as "All Hallows' Eve", and later "HALLOWEEN"." there go later j.s. HELL ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 11 Oct 1997 23:15:53 +0900 From: Ksaxon Subject: Samhain and other stuff Here's my definition.... The meaning of the word Samhain is in the encyclopedia, but since you asked. Samhian was the ancient celts god of death. They had a yearly celebration of Samhain where superstitous rituals and good fortune rituals were performed. Halloween is a derivative of it. The exact memory of the rituals and halloween deriving from it is a bit hazy, so if I'm a little wrong, feel free to correct me. And I'll forever be forever yelling a loud, resounding "FUCK" to the Misfits, their tour organizeation, Western Australia and the large amount of open desert between Perth nd any of the three Australian cities they're playing. And also to Cradle of Filth who are ALSO not coming to Perth. And ALSO to Iron Maiden who have never come to Perth.(in a whole almost 20 years. I maen they go to Canberra.. the smallest damn state, most upperclass place of the lot. what's up with that?????) But then agian I can be happy that the Misfits are actually entering Australia in the first place, even if it's too far away. And I might as well have another groan about t-shirts while I'm on the groaning theme. Damn being a medium. And who the fuck is this Adam West guy? The first time I saw discussions of him on the list I thought batman had turned muso or sumthin.. Whoever said Oasis.. a real band. I don't know if this is just some fucking lame, poor attempt to start a huge flame thing but you got my attention. I hate Oasis almost as much as I hate the Spice Girls. Admittedtlt mostly for their attitude than their music. catch yas Kate -- "Poised to sodomise a world upon it's knees" Cradle Of Filth ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 11 Oct 1997 21:35:08 -0400 (EDT) From: Rblack8201@aol.com Subject: things really want to see the new video, anyone know if it's gonna air EVER again? Will they release some stuff on videotape, for those unfortunates among us who missed the video? Anyone have an inkling? A lot has been made the past few bibles about Danzig's blackacidevil and AP, and the differences between them. So, i took a listen to b-a-d, and i think that the album has a lot of good music on there - some are really kick-ass , and some are worse than others (which means, conversely, that some are better than others); this is true of almost all of glenn's earlier albums, - every song isn't great - but there are more good than bad tunes on the album. My criticism is that, on that album - after the very good "4", he messes with what's always been his strongest attribute as an artist - his voice - it was so distorted on some of the songs of lesser quality that it detracted from the song. All in all it's a good album, maybe a great one if you take one or two songs and put em on a B side somewhere (like the title song). AP's a completly different creature, much more like a Ramones or Glennfits album - not hard on the brain and doesn't aspire to be. Hell, there's enough of that shit out there. AP is all escapism, come in and join the fun, you either dig it or you don't. A lot of folks on this here bible are polarized between old and current Fits, fuck it, it's better than most of the new shit they play on the radio these days. Glenn's past that, he's attempting to be an auteur - the "artist of the floating world" (ishiguro) - he aspires to something higher. So what if he doesn't want to do the Fits thing, let the rest of them carry on with their things. But don't take it out on Glenn, he'll be sad, and even Danzig needs a hug every now and then. Bye. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 12 Oct 1997 08:41:36 -0400 (EDT) From: Mylo57@aol.com Subject: take graves out I saw the new video and it would have been a lot cooler if they took graves out or something. i have nothing against him or anything, but the way that they portrayed him just wasn't working. otherwise the video was pretty cool. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 12 Oct 1997 09:18:21 -0400 (EDT) From: Ether007@aol.com Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #391 glen is not a member of the misfits any more they have a new singer why the hell did glen ever leave he made the misfits he wrote every song ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Oct 1997 02:24:08 -0500 From: tes777@netrox.net (Tammy S.)

I know at least one place to find the CD ad vinyl. Happy hunting! -I want Samhain vids. There's one out there with packagine and all(a la Creepy Compilation) but I havent seen it lately. Dammit! -To the guy/gal who thinks Graves is better than Danzig: Glenn wrote every Misfits song that we all liked enough to sign up for this Bible(unless you are one of the extremely new fiends who have gotten into them in the last year). Graves did not, and would have nothing to do with the Fits if not for Glenn. You may like Graves, but better than Danzig? I can't see how any Fits fan could think so. -the Oasis thing: whoever said that just did it to get people all wound up.

This is ridiculous. Jerry says he won't come on >here unless you start to act nice. I wasn't afraid to take the heat from >you when I first came on here 18 months ago - and if you were around back >then, you know, I got a lot - and I faced it like a man Jerry Only is full of shit. He will NEVER come on and post to the bible. NEVER...sorry kiddies. First off, why would he now? The new band is already established. If Jerry was ever going to come on the bible, he would have back in 95, or early 96 when he was trying to get word out about where shows would be, and about new releases. But no. Why? Jerry feels that this little mailing list is his FAN CLUB. Jerry is a rock star, and this is HIS mailing list. Why should he post? Since when has a band ever had any REAL contact with members of their fan club? Jerry wants to be this over-inflated, intangible, rock god...if he got on here and posted, that would bring him down to "our level"..Jerry wont do that. >Glenn created THE MISFITS. He got all the songwriting credit because, >believe it or not, he WROTE it all. He didn't WANT all the power. He had >the talent and the vision - and most of us respected that fact. Jerry >wanted CONTROL. He manipulated Glenn by fucking with his insecurity. Did >you read the latest FLIPSIDE interview. Jerry alludes to this fact in >there. I got the following from Denmom, it should further shed light on the topic: "Its true. Bobby told me that he thought he (Glenn) was gay and was very surprised to see him out in public with a female. He did usually travel with his little group of friends, Howie, Nick Berlin from the Blessed,and a couple of other guys. I guess you might have gotten that impression. He was very insecure, he told me he'd been a fat little kid and was sure everyone still looked at him as 'that short fat guy'." "Glenn is pretty easily manipulated, I think thats why he's so schizo, cause he's been led down the path too many times by Jerry. Jerry fucked up the band, not Glenn. Glenn has a lot of emotional problems, and Jerry really takes advantage of that. Glenn is an artistic type, he doesnt have alot of stomach for all this 'he said, she said' he just wanted his work to GET OUT THERE, he didnt really want to mess with the details of making it happen. he put his trust in Jerry and Jerry took advantage of it. I think Glenn had a 'crush' on Jerry, nothing gay, just really admired him, cause Jerry was all the things Glenn wasnt, tall blond, lots of girls, athletic, big nice (!?) family, smooth talker, etc blah blah. Jerry had a car,Glenn couldnt even drive (still cant). Jerry had 3 different girlfriends, Glenn couldnt even deal with one. Jerry's dad supported the idea of the Misfits, Glenns parents thought he was wasting his time. etc. etc." interesting, eh? dave ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Oct 1997 11:52:22 -0400 (EDT) From: lidsjt93@mail.suny.edu Subject: Bootleg CD Vampira On this CD, the version of Nike A Go Go sounds different than the one on Disc 3 of the Box Set (ie, you can really hear the keyboard on the boot). Did they remix everything (like they did with the NOTLD single's songs)? ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Oct 1997 12:06:23 -0400 From: Christopher Waters Subject: A few more words by EE I just read today's (Monday's) Bible, and I have a few responses: To houghton@erols.com: Jerry talks about the break-up in '83 in the interview we did with him in Atlanta. He told us that Glenn had some problems with Googy (he got rid of him about a year earlier), and Glenn really didn't want to put up with him (I never really got the scoop on what the case was, though). The bottom line was that either Glenn deal with Googy or leave. So Glenn left. That's the story I got--whether or not it's 100 percent, I don't know. This interview will be in the next issue of Vibrations of Doom webzine, which should be out anytime. Just look out for it: http://www.kmf.org/~cl/vod_home.html And, might I say, kudos to Chris (alphawolf_28@hotmail.com) for his post "Why Can't We Just Grow Up?" I agree with you all the way on that one. I really think it's immature as hell to post stuff bashing other fiends and what they think. Just think about this, guys and gals--we're all fiends--isn't that a good reason to get along? Besides, what if the person you want to flame is standing right in front of you (face to face)--would you still flame that person? The scary thing is--who knows what they might do if you flame them to their face. I know this is the net and many of you probably won't meet most of these people anywhere, but you never know (and it's just something to think about). Also, I'm sure Glenn thinks it's immature for any of you to flame Bobby, Jerry or any of the Misfits, and I'm sure Jerry, the Misfits, and Bobby are the same way. Newfits, Oldfits--I love them all! To hell with the politics--I love the music! 'Nuff said! To Bobby Steele: Just wanted to know if there are any sound files or anything from the Undead I can check out before I buy. I've never heard them before, and I've been very curious. Also, I heard you might be coming up to Atlanta soon (Masquerade). If so, let me know when and I'll try to go to the show. Just thought I'd add in my two cents, so now I'll get off my soapbox. Anyone feel the need to flame me, send it to ME! Later fiends! EE Fiend ------------------------------ From: "Matt Richards" Subject: cwn anwnn/samhain/oasis/ronnie biggs Date: Mon, 13 Oct 1997 09:18:35 PDT CWN ANWWN was a dark Celtic god in that mythology. The morrigu was some type of animal god- shape-shifter thing, I don't recall exactly. Something like that I think. Check Bullfinch's mythology. I loaned out my copy of the book that deals with all this two years ago and never got it back. Also to flesh out the Samhain seasonal thing-- yes, it was the the Celtic pagan new year representing the autumn solstice in the wiccan and other nature-religion calendars. Samhain was first in importance, followed by Beltane the spring equinox around March 20-21st. Samhain was the "season of the dead" because the celts believed the spirits of the dead hung around until the end of the year, at which point they were released to the afterlife. A beautiful ritual that went with this was that on Samhain night, OCT 31, most major hills in ireland would have bonfires built atop them to warm the souls on their journey and to ward off faeries from obstructing these freed souls. There are lots of other stories that follow this tradition. Loreena Mckennit has used it frequently as a theme for her songs (she did the soundtrack for "Jade") and her music can be extremely haunting. Obviously SAMHAIN represents a darker, more mystical side of rebirth and for this reason (perhaps) it was especially meaningful for Glenn as he started over after the misfits. In defense of Ronnie Biggs who I've talked with privately-- he's a good guy and did not mean that Oasis was a better band just because they were making more money than the Misfits. He said they were better AND were making more money-- don't be so quick to jump on people. Oasis is a damn good band whether or not they are very original or worship the Beatles.(I know another band that isn't very original and tries to copy an old broken-up horror-punk group) Noel is great guitar player and has a great feel for song-craft as well as writing some very thoughtful lyrics. I would point out that Oasis is a very honest and upfront band with little regard to what people think of them and they love to tumble with people who criticize them. They are closer in spirit to the old misfits and punk than the new misfits are. As times change, different kinds of rebellion are needed. Also the historical Ronnie Biggs was not just a convicted british felon but also sang some Sex Pistols songs on the Great Rock and Roll Swindle because it was only half finished when the band imploded. McLaren though him a colorful character. cheers and jeers and make mine HEINEKEN Blasmaster Lycanthro13 ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Oct 1997 18:23:20 +0200 From: roland.carlsson@hks.se (Pontus Carlsson) Subject: Mark Estes Captain Harlock shirts!

Not everyone on this list has a problem with people criticizing the Misfits or Danzig. And some of us are even actually able to make fun of the things we like. Go figure. --------- A friend of mine went to see Rollins (or Black Flag fame, or, un-fame) do some of his spoken word stuff. He managed to piss him off after the show by asking him: "If you had to, really had to, do you think you could take down Danzig?"

In My Opinion...bud is one of the best things in the world, Micheal Graves sez so too, go read the High Times Interview on the Pit Oasis: These guys suck...I hope Jerry O, Doyle, and the rest don't track down whoever said that and beat the living hell out of em. I'm just waitin for em to meet Oasis someday and have another Motley Crue incident, But they'd probly wind up killingem or some shit....which would still be cool....maybe they could use it in the AP video Glenn being in control: I've read numerous article in which Glenn sez When he wants to do something musically, he'll find a way to do it. He just has a lot of talent & vision in music. (I just hope his next work isn't so industrial influenced) Glenn Sounding Like NIN: Yeah, I'll admit 5 wasn't my favorite Danzig album (4 was) but you gotta admit, it was still the Danzig sound despite all the electro-drums & synth. I liked the guitars on it, he juts needs to get rid of some of the synth. The Drums sounded kinda cool in blackacidevil. Jerry O,Doyle,etc. Being on the Bible: I think this would be cool, They just say "If anyone pisses us off I'll beat the shit out of em when I'm in your town" That would stop me from talkin shit, They're some big muthafuckas....... Micheal Graves: Ok, so he needs some practice, but he's still a damn great singer. Everyone who talks shit about singers should try to sing...in pitch and make it sound good. I'm17 5'3"(About as tall as glenn) and my band does Misfits, Samhain, & Danzig covers. I'm the guitarist and singer..And I tell ya....his stuff is not easy to sing...especially Sistinas...in an unrelated note, the funnest song to sing would have to be Brand New God Misfits Guitars: Great idea but OVERPRICED!!!!! I mean c'mon, anyone heard of Steve Vai?? Arguably one of the all-time most skilled guitarists and his 7-string Ibanez only costs $2,000 last time i checked, shit Mine cost me $200 back in '89 The Misfits Dumping the make-up, clothes hair,etc: ARE YOU FUCKIN NUTS?!?!?! C'mon, Devilocks, Leather, Spikes, Shit like that has been a part of the Misfits Since They Recorded Static Age. If they did that, they might as well start singin about happy shit and dump the whole horror image....THAT WOULD SUCK!!!! DUHB Vid: Not the best song in the world but this video KICKS ASS!!! Its up there on my all time favorite Video list (Cantspeak at the top) Samhain: This is the Pagan holiday to celebrate the death & rebirth of the world, it envolves a huge feast and asfor sacrificing, the way this works is if there isn't enough food for the animals to last thru winter, the slaughter the weak for the Lord of the Dead (AKA Collector of Souls, AKA Grim Reaper) I also heard it was The Celtic New Year.

Glenn lost all his talent after he left the misfits, so the misfits had no choice but to replace his stupid ass with graves, who is a better singer but cant write songs as well. jerry said "This isnt a reunion, its a whole new band. We just play old stuff because you want to hear it, and we want to play it." the dig up her bones video is a little bit wacky, but the misfits are a little bit wacky too. i thought that graves did look like glenn in the video, but what do i care. glenn sucks. graves is in there and glenn is not. everybody should leave jerry alone, he is just trying to make a living, like you and me. at least he still lives for the misfits unlike some x-members. and for you bobby steele, EAT SHIT! ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Oct 1997 12:26:38 -0700 From: R Hinojos Subject: Bleeder's Diegest Mark, please unsubscribe me from the Bible. but before i go... i joined the Fiend Club...sometime. i don't remember when. but, the first mailing i got was issue #1 of the Bleeder's Diegest. i thought, "oh, how cute" and was finished reading the little thing in no time. (i think "Jewish Sports Legends" was a longer pamphlet.) i figured, hey issue #1, it'll get off the ground. lo and behold, a couple weeks ago i got issue #2. what a disappointment! 4 pages of even less info than the first issue. blah. i'd ask for my money back, but then again it's free. and speaking of money... is the Bleeder's Diegest a source of juicy info about the new Misfits or is it really just a big bloated advertisement for Squirt! magazine? i love the way each Diegest prominently promotes that unashamedly new Misfits-worship magazine. on the back cover of Bleeder's Diegest #2, they ask us to write in and tell them what we think. i'm not gonna waste a stamp, just your time and some space in the Bible. my review: it sux. it really really sux. i thought that a Misfits Fan Club mailing would have stuff directly from the Misfits: a little paragraph from Jerry, exclusive photos, exclusive interviews. hell, i'd even settle for a catalog of available T-shirts, CDs, cassettes, and vinyl. but, no, we get a third-rate Rolling Stone with some really bad writing. don't forget to buy your copy of Squirt! cheers ryq ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Oct 1997 12:59:48 -0700 From: CBC Subject: lets face facts OK, since this is my first post I'll be respectful. I've been reading the Bible for three years off and on, and now it's time to throw my 2 cents in. Misfits, my fave band ever. But they are not the Misfits anymore. They are a good band. I've seen them several times since they're come back or whatever it's called. But you can take the soul of the band out and still call it the same band. I like em and I like Danzig. i also live in southern cali and have the choice to see Danzig or the Misfits on Halloween.

Date: Tue, 14 Oct 1997 12:24:07 -0400 (EDT) From: "Brian Cameron Findlay" Ok, heres an interesting 138 sighting from the State News in Lansing, Michigan: A bus carrying nearly 50 senior citizens on a Thanksgiving Day trip to view the turning of the seasons plunged into a ravine Monday in central Quebec, killing 43 people. Quebec provincial police said the accident took place in the afternoon about 60 miles northeast of Quebec City. The bus was traveling on HIGHWAY 138 and crashed at the bottom of a steep hill heading into a hard right curve..... The article goes on with some other insignificant details, but i just thought that was wacky... Oh, by the way, as anyone heard any rumors about who might be opening the Feb. 2 Misfits show in Grand Rapids? I know its a long way off, but rumors have a tendancy to form early :) -- Brian Findlay "Whoa hoah ho, whats that supposed to mean?" --- ------------------------------ Subject: Jerry and Glenn are both full of shit (my review of the From: davenaked@juno.com (dave naked) Date: Tue, 14 Oct 1997 13:43:52 EDT Well, I just picked up my copy of "Seconds". Geez, I cant help to feel that Ive just WASTED my three dollars. Why? Well, the real question should be, why do rock stars feel they must LIE to their fans? What, we cant handel the truth about why THE MISFITS really broke up, or what Glenn Danzig's last name REALLY is. Is it that they figure we as the fans would LOSE RESPECT for them if they actually came out with the truth. If Jerry Only just simply said that, well, yeah back then Glenn was in control of everything, but its not like that now and its a team effort...or something like that would people not like him or the NewFits?...no. If Glenn just said, fuck my name used to be Analzone, and I really used to be a short, fat, big-nosed Italian guy.., what would happen? Nothing at all. Here are some specific examples... SECONDS: The commen complaint was that The Misfits became a Hardcore band on "Earth AD" and lost their original vibe. ONLY: Thats why I broke up the band... Ok, first off we know thats total bullshit and Jerry DID NOT break up THE MISFITS...right? He then goes on to say... ONLY: It seemed that Glenn's ego was to big for the band. I gave him the benefit of the doubt. I had seven years of time and so much money in the band that for me to walk away would be stupid. I said, "you find a drummer and if we pull off Halloween and the kids good, we'll go to Germany.". We opened with "20 Eyes" and the kid didnt get one beat in the right spot......Glenn could have told me, "We'll take the guy from The Necro's to Germany. I'm sorry, you were right". But he didnt say that and I told everyone that night, "This is our last night, and Im not going to Germany". But, wait...I thought HE broke up the band because he didnt like the musical direction they were taking. No, now HE broke up the band because they didnt have a drummer to tour Germany with. How about this... ONLY: For the Misfits to come out with a clean album (no cursing) and for you to love it, I think that sayd something about our songwriting. Let me just say, if Im wrong about this PLEASE let me know. From what it seems, Jerry just said that for them to come out with an album with no cursing can only mean that they are GOOD SONG WRITERS. Is that what Jerry is saying? Maybe that the only reason anyone liked the old band was because they cursed so much. We should all take offense to this...Jerry is insulting our intelligence. As Bobby has said, Jerry slams on him, which was quite unnecessary. Now, about Glenn...I dont know what his trip is... SECONDS: Where did you get the name Danzig from? DANZIG: It's my family name. Somebody started a rumor a long time ago that it wasnt my name but its not true. Its my name. Its on my license. Theres a story behind it that I dont want to tell you because its a personal thing between me and my family. Maybe the guy who started the rumor was the kind fellow who HAS GLENN'S HIGH SCHOOL YEARBOOK!! Could it be, maybe, you think?? Does Glenn even look German, come on!!! What a load of bullshit. Well, there you all have it. dave ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 14 Oct 1997 15:12:39 -0400 (EDT) From: StaticAge Subject: RIP Glenn If Glenn dies, do Jerry and Doyle get to go apeshit, and just release everything?

I have plenty to do. But there are lots of fiends that are interested in hearing from a former MISFIT. Fiends are also interested in hearing the developements in the lawsuit that Joey Image and myself are filing against Jerry for embezzling our share of the box set royalties. I never would've had to do this if Jerry hadn't initiated a campaign of slander against me in the press, but a man has to defend his reputation. Read all of the articles in MISFITS CENTRAL. You'll see how Glenn and Jerry constantly contradict themselves - especially in regards as to why I was removed from the band. Maybe you'll get a better understanding. At least, with my band, I call it THE UNDEAD . . . not the MISFITS - just so I can take advantage of a bunch of naive kids to take their money. Before you go trying to put me down . . . look at the amount of success THE UNDEAD had over te past 15 years. Then look at what Jerry accomplished - outside of THE MISFITS - over that period.

Why do you say this stuff? What do you personally have against the man? He doesn't deserve that crap. Do you want to know why he doesn't post to the bible? He doesn't have a computer. He spends his day practicing, occasionally writing songs, making phone calls, and writing letters to people who write to him for autographs, etc. He fills out all the mail merchandise orders for the Fiend Club. What do you want him to do? Why don't you buy him a computer - then maybe he'll get online. In the mean time, he'll continue as he always has, calling me to pass information on to YOU. Do you want to know why he's in no hurry to get online? It's because of accusing, angry messages like yours.

All the tracks on the BOX SET were remastered, not remixed. NO tracks on the box set (and that includes the NOTLD stuff) were remixed. There are 3 different versions of the "Nike A Go Go" keyboard track. The one on the VAMPIRA bootleg CD is from a lost master tape. The one on the box set is from the same session, but is a different mix with a different vocal track. There is yet another version of the one on the BOX SET with a much lower keyboard track that wasn't included on the BOX. Want to know more?

Could anyone ever possibly have more than one reason for doing something? Both Jerry and Glenn have been saying for years that they don't like the sound of Earth AD. Why? I don't know. I think it's one of the most amazing, intense albums I've ever heard. I like it better than WALK AMONG US, but that's just me. Glenn says Jerry, Doyle, and Robo recorded the instrumental tracks while he slept, and that's true. Jerry says Glenn and Spot were in charge of the production and that Glenn put the album out (in December of '83) after they broke up. That's true too. Either way, neither of them seem to like it. As for the last show, Jerry has been saying for years that the show didn't go well and that he only wanted Glenn to just apologize for it and admit that he was wrong. Jerry says he and Doyle were so pissed that they played the show sitting down on their amps. Glenn had already lost interest in the band and had started working on Samhain stuff. Glenn says that he quit the band in June '83 after the Santa Monica Civic show. He obviously changed his mind, since the whole band went into the studio in July of that year to finish up EARTH AD, and they also did a show or two in the New York City area. Regardless, the band hadn't practiced much when the Halloween show rolled around. Listening to the tape of the show makes this obvious. And another thing - it's obvious that something happened on that stage that night because Glenn says to the crowd that it's their last show ever. And so it was, at least together. They did have a tour of Germany planned to support the German releases of EARTH AD and EVILIVE. Jerry had to cancel it after the show. Either way, it seems to me that 2 guys (Jerry and Glenn) who had been performing as the Misfits for roughly 6 years, 6 months, and 6 days (first show 4/25/77, last show 10/29/83 - Halloween '83) just got tired of each other. Both tell the story from their own point of view.

Here's the full text, in the proper context: "I told them to put a sticker on our album because it has absolutely no swear words and no guitar leads, one of the boldest statements in thirty-five years of Rock & Roll. Do you have to have gang wars to get an album to sell? Do you have to swear and be really cool? Or can you get down in the trenches and kick it? With this new record, I told the guys, "There's no reason we can't write spooky songs without swearing." So we did it. For The Misfits to come out with a clean album and you to love it, I think that says something for our songwriting." Interpret it how you wish, but let me promise you that he had no intention of insulting your intelligence. It's just an interesting point.

He has stated before that he's part German, and perhaps he is. Perhaps there's a member of his family somewhere whose last name is Danzig. For all we know, it could be his mother's maiden name. He never directly says that Danzig was always his last name. > From: StaticAge > Subject: RIP Glenn > > If Glenn dies, do Jerry and Doyle get to go apeshit, and just release > everything?

For $2,000 grand you can buy a real guitar, like a Les Paul Custom, and leave the toys for the boys in spandex. and now for my rant....... What really amazes me the most about what the bible has sunk too is that everyone bitching about how Glenn sucks probably have been listening to the Misfits for years and loving those songs, and now that there is a new bandwagon to jump on, the forget their roots on go right on blasting him. Regardless of what kind of a person Danzig really is, he wrote songs 20 years ago that are still influencing bands today and I pop on my stereo several times a month. While I think AP isnt a bad effort, I can't see that it will have the same impact in 20 years .... "MR-PHIBES" >BOBBY, DO YOU NOT HAVE ANY THING BETTER TO DO THAN REMEMBER YOUR DAYS IN >THE MISFITS?

C'mon, let us all in on your secret. Tell us about all the gigs you played with Glenn and Jerry and Googy and Manny and Franche and Doyle. I want to hear how you killed that kid with your guitar, or how you spent the night in jail with Glenn in England, or how you got chased by Hanson down the street. How much money do Glenn and Jerry owe you? For all the songs you played on its got to be close to $0.00! Be friggin grateful there is actually someone who played in that band on this list ... the rest of them seem to be too chicken shit to come on because we don't behave.

Hmmm. . . not to sure, although I have heard those rumors as well. All I can say is during a live performance, I was resting on the stage, and I kept getting ( ( (bonked) ) ) in the head with his guitar. So what did I do you ask?? Well, I reached in front of my nose, and ripped his knobs off of his guitar! *laugh!* He looked down at me and raised his fist at a Ninety-Degree angle to the rhythem of the Plan 9 grooves (still being viciously boinked by his six stringed weopon!), he was looking ready to knock my block off!!! He thought I was fucking with his volume, but as I had admirably explained to this tower of power, von frankendoyle, I was just taking home a souvie or two! *Innocent Smile* and I still have them! They're on MY guitar now!! But at any rate, we all laughed about it after the show. . *Evil Laugh* Gotta give P.C. some credit for being such a good sport! . . . Later taters.

Someone here (I believe it was davenaked) who posted about Glenn's last name. I tend to believe his last name is Anzilone as well. Maybe The Dungeonmaster can put his old high-school picture up on his site and that should have his name under it, especially if it is a senior picture. Sometime ago, I debated a guy via e-mail from here who is selling the bones gloves (sorry I haven't gotten back to you (OBHC (sp?)), but I have been extremely busy with work and writing songs for a new band that I am trying to start with another bible contributor) and told him that I believe that Glenn is a late bloomer and that he has some emotional and personality problems, along with problems with dealing with reallity. He reminds me of this kid I went to school with in high-school. He always made up stories to try to impress everyone while we all knew he was full of shit. I believe Glenn, in some way, may be ashamed of his Italian heritage because of some childhood influence that had a negative impact on him. Simply put, I believe he was made fun of by the other kids for being short, pudgy, and having a big Italian nose (did he get a nose job and face lift?) , which are traits of an Italian, and was forced to wish he was of a different heritage, such as being German, something he longed to be. That may explain the reason he claims that Danzig is his last name and that there is some "mysterious" secret behind it. Often people who grew up being picked on by other kids conjure up stories to escape the reallity of their lives. Glenn is a dreamer and by his actions and song writing (Mommy, can I go out and kill tonight) we can see that he is living out his fantasy of what he would have liked to have done to those kids who picked on him. As far as Glenn being gay, it's pretty doubtful. I'm thinking more around the lines that he is a late bloomer and didn't know how to handle a relationship with a girl. He may have even been afraid of them. Girls tend to float towards men who are athletic and outgoing. If Glenn was neither of these, I'd say his chance of a relationship with a girl would have been slim. He also shows anti-social behavior. He tends to be reserved and quiet, never really saying much. He gets into fights with just about everyone he meets and cannot handle a situation where he is being called names or hackled while on stage. This shows negative personality traits that have led him to react in this way when conflict arises due to his childhood. Glenn still hasn't forgoten his past as a child and the pain of growing up as an unpopular child will probably last a lifetime. Acting out and role-playing is something that Glenn likes to do as well that could be construed as a sign of something that went wrong in his childhood. He likes to portray himself as different musical icons and comic book characters such as Elvis, Jim Morrison, Wolverine, etc. Now I have nothing against role-playing, but Glenn takes it to the extreme to where he actually believes he is these characters. This extreme behavior leads me to believe that he may have been a sheltered child at one time and not very popular with the other kids. So, in his mind, to escape the reallity of loneliness, he conjures up the idea that he is Elvis and Morrison, thusly becoming better than his peers and ultimately believing in himself that he doesn't need anyone else but himself. This is anti-social behavior. Now, as far as Jerry goes, I think he is full of shit too. Although Glenn shows signs of anti-social behavior, I am of the opinnion that he tended to cling to Jerry and that Jerry took advantage of this. Often at times when you have two opposites (Jerry being outgoing, Glenn being reserved) around each other, the person with the dominant personality traits will take control of a friendly relationship. Ultimately ending up trying to control that other person. I believe that Glenn caught on to this, though somewhat belatedly, along with being tired of Jerry and Doyle's inabillity to even play one note right (I'm talking about past tense, not now as I believe they have improved), and dumped them for more passive personalities, Eerie Von and Steve Zing. Thusly being able to control those two individuals and ultimately accomplishing his fantasy of being more powerful than Jerry. We can see this with the original line up of DANZIG. Glenn resents Jerry in a way that few may be able to understand. This is why Glenn and Jerry will never be friends again because Glenn has put it into his mind that he is more powerful than Jerry and no longer has any use for him. If I have left something out, feel free to expound. But I am pretty sure I have hit the nail on the head. BTW, my last name REALLY IS Kill and there REALLY IS a story behind it. It was changed from Linderschmidt to Kill in the late 1800's because of some felony that one of my ancesters commited. And yes, I am German. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 15 Oct 1997 12:46:27 -0400 (EDT) From: Undead138@aol.com Subject: A Couple of Sightings Last week, when my brother and his friends went to New York, he went to a Haunted House and the Crimson Ghost popped out at him!

I hope I don't piss anyone off majorly with my post, but I have to throw out my $0.02. I had to comment on a lot of things. If you don't wanna read a lot, scrool through. I find it hard to believe that no one catches on to some people's two-face-ing on here. One day Glenn's this, Glenn's that, I hate Glenn, blah blah blah. Then the next day Glenn's the next best thing next to sliced bread? Ok, what did Glenn do in those few days to totally repent all of his 'sins'? I've wondered about this. I guess I just don't get easily pissed with Glenn because I've studied his moves from year to year. And I've also studied the Zodiac (I know, you think it's a crock of shit, but I thought that too, then they basically predicted me all too well). I think I can put in an educated guess to what sign he is. And the sign that I think it is is the alter ego of mine, so to speak. Someone called him controlling. I think I'd like it for someone to take control musically, if I was in the band, especially if that person has the credits Glenn has. And I also, when I have to put my name on a project, like to take 100% control as well. Maybe it's just me. Would you want the pressure? And maybe he doesn't want to fess up to his real name, due to privacy. Ever think about that? Seriously, think about it. If you were in Glenn's position, would you want to reveal every single detail about yourself? Maybe he doesn't want anyone bothering his family. And I know people will start to flame Glenn for being a 'short, fat kid' So? Like the rest of you guys don't have flaws. Come on these guys are human. All of them. Some of them have egos, I admit, but I'm sure some of them will treat you respectfully. Some people have flamed Glenn for his attitude about meeting people after shows. Ok, you go out and you give what Glenn gives. Then see how happy you are. I admit he has gone too far in some cases, but if I were him, I wouldn't be nice either. I've gone and worked my ass off like he does, and I know how you feel after that. Not nice. I would probably be meaner then Glenn though. I also spend a lot of time in the #misfits after school, and every time someone tries to make Glenn seem human, they bash this person. Why? I personally thought the stories I've heard, true or not, were extremely funny, and made Glenn seem very human, with flaws, like us. Another thing that really really pisses me off, is when someone goes to slam on Bobby, I'm sure he's asked for it in some ways, but when they decide to get cold hearted and cruel is when they bring his spinal biffida (spelling?)and make it an issue. Maybe I have a heart for him because I've seen these people suffer. It's not a sight for the weak. And I also have my sensitive part, and I hate it when someone gets so low and rips on that. If I ever met these people, I would personally kick the kiving shit outta them. I can understand not liking a person for what he or she said, don't get personal. At least fight fair. Most of the things I've said are in defense of Glenn. Glenn's the one I think I know best. But, I also have a tendency to try to put myself in others shoes. I know people have a thing about thinking in their own frame of mind, not opening up, but you might totally change your mid when you open it to all the possiblities.

Date: Wed, 15 Oct 1997 17:29:20 PDT This is my first post, so I'm sorry it has to be a tirade, but my hatred knows no bounds. First off, MrPhang, let me set something straight: >Glenn lost all his talent after he left the misfits, so the >misfits had no choice but to replace his stupid ass with graves, >who is a better singer but cant write songs as well. Do you really believe the shit spilling out of your mouth? First off, I can deal with you not liking Glenn - that's your opinion, and if you think Graves is a better singer (for whatever sick, twisted reasons you may have) I can respect that. But saying that Glenn has lost all of his talent! Glenn Danzig is one of the most talented artists alive today! He is a truly remarkable man, able to do anything that he decides he wants to do. I am an artist myself, and I would kill to be as good as Glenn. How the hell can you like the Misfits without liking Glenn, or at least respecting his talent? Glenn was the Misfits. It was his fucking band. The Misfits that you like exist only because Glenn Danzig dreamed them into being. Their music is his music revisited. The Misfits had no choice but to replace Glenn because he LEFT, he QUIT the band, and when a band loses a member, especially someone with such an important position in the band as Glenn, the band either has to call it quits or replace them. If you don't like Glenn, fine, but show the man some respect! Anyone else caught bashing Glenn for apparantly no reason ('he sucks' - what kind of an argument is that?) will suffer my horrible vengeance. As an aside, I think blackacidevil is a masterpiece, and I don't know why everyone insists on beating Glenn over the head with it. The man's moving in a different musical direction, breaking new ground, just like he did in Samhain and The Misfits. Do you want him to sit back and twiddle his thumbs for the rest of his days? This is Glenn fucking Danzig! ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 15 Oct 1997 20:34:24 -0500 (EST) From: SETH L DODSON Subject: Re: Graves is Better than Danzig... OK. I have liked them Misfits for about four years now. Long before American came out. I started out with Legacy and Walk Among Us. I do think that Danzig is an awsome singer, but I firmly stand bye my opinion than Graves is a better singer than Glenn. I think that he puts a little more heart into his music than Danzig ever did with the 'Fits. I also think that the current line-up will go down in history as the best 'Fits line-up in their history. Listen to this: Glenn will never come back to the 'Fits, so just accept Graves as the best thing to happen to this band since their first album.

I'm not here to flame anyone, but I sure as hell disagree with that statement. I stopped going to shows for a long time because of the "stare at their feet, rock-god asshole" trip. Example: I saw Nirvana in the middle of winter; their idea of fun was to throw a cooler of ice water into the front area before we walked out into 15 degree weather. They laughed their asses off, and we froze. That's an "over-inflated, intangible, rock-god" attitude if there ever was one! This is what I saw at the Misfits last time they came to Atlanta. They let some guy propose to his girlfriend onstage. Every chick that could scamper onstage while they played "She", they let up. They let people galore get onstage and sing with them for no good damn reason. They asked us what WE wanted to hear, and then played it. Jerry hung out after the show talking to people for well over a hour. He had his picture made with anyone, signed anything, hugged people, so forth and so on. It was the first time I've enjoyed a show in awhile, and I just don't think you can fake appreciation like that for one's fans. They (the whole band) truly seemed to enjoy the fans as much as we enjoyed them. So, the last thing I saw that night was an "over-inflated, intangible, rock-god". He came down to our level just fine, and he enjoyed the hell out of it.

I've seen a couple of posts that argue whether or not the "New Misfits" are the "Real Misfits" and if people should talk about them on the Bible. Personally, I don't think it should matter if anyone thinks they're the "Real Misfits" or not; they have the name, they play the songs, and they even have one or two (depending on how you look at it) original members, and since this is a Misfits list, there's room for them here, whether it's "Misfits Classic*" or "New Misfits*". No one's opinion about how "Real" they are can change the fact that they are legally, officially, and, in the opinion of some people, "really" the Misfits. Second, about some of the Celtic stuff; the Celts weren't really known to have many Dark Gods -- their culture wasn't so overly concerned with Good and Evil as civilized cultures are. The Cwn Annwnn (pronounced "Coon Annoon") are traditionally the dogs of the Wild Hunt, a race of Fey cainines that were driven by the Horned God of the Hunt. Morrigu I'm not sure about, but it's very similar to Morrigan, the War Goodess. Trying to figure out Celtic mythology can be difficult at best -- you're really dealing with 3 different cultures (Scottish, Irish, and Welsh) historically recorded from a variety of perspectives (Saxon, Roman, Christian, etc.), none of which are the same. On a personal note, I think that while seeing Jerry post something on the Bible would be the cat's meow, I'd rather see what Glenn would post. I doubt that he even knows it exists, much less write anything, but I think that it would be, at least, amusing, and that Jerry's post, if choose to put one up, would be rather dull. - Buff (Zombi13@hotmail.com) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ From: houghton@erols.com Date: Wed, 15 Oct 1997 22:12:05 -0400 Subject: Re: oasis and danzig >Date: Mon, 13 Oct 1997 15:20:13 -0400 (EDT) >From: MrPhung@aol.com >Subject: oasis and danzig > for all you fuckin geeks who like glenn, why do you still bother to listen to >the misfits? why dont you go buy blackacidevil, Well, Um.

Date: Wed, 15 Oct 1997 19:35:49 -0700 I love the Misfits, and most of the old school punk. I also like Metallica. A week ago I was listening to Metallica A thru Z thing on my radio.

I'm 24, so I never bothered to ask. Also, I think the argument on who broke up the band is interesting, if not somewhat useless. First off, Glenn claims he didn't like the direction the songs were going in. Yet Earth AD says songs by Glenn Danzig. And Jerry himself says in Ugly Things that Glenn made them play "the thrash shit." I think Glenn was tired of dumbing down his songs, so the others could play them, plus the brothers have a tendency to go lightspeed, as American Psycho shows. Maybe he resented having the brothers outnumber him, plus the fact they sucked live. I'm the biggest fan in the world, but they fucking mangle the songs on the Oldfits videos I have. The energy and enthusiasm was there, though, and that's what counted. Don't get me wrong, I loved them then and now. But now, they can play and still have the enthusiasm of seventeen-year-olds. Therefore, they rule. Now, the brothers claim to break up the band because they sat out the last show and went their own way afterwards. I've never heard anywhere that Glenn and Jerry formally broke up the band in each other's presence. After that last Halloween show, they went their way, Glenn went his. They never spoke or saw each other again. Since it was never talked out, they both can claim with some justification that they ended the band. By the way, on a lighter note, wouldn't the Misfits' story make a fantastic movie? I'm serious. It's got conflict ("I wanna cheeseburger!" "No!" "Wanna fight?"), horror, action (the San Fran riot) comedy (Bobby puking on Lennon's shoes), etc. See: Glenn as a teenager, lone wolf and comic geek, dreaming of the big time. See: the laughter, the tears, the blood! The dramatic breakup, then everybody hits it big with their own band! It could be like a soap opera. Characters could disappear and then show up at the end (MANNY: I want my cut!") You'd never know what's gonna happen! Wouldn't that be groovy?

I moved out of my parents home so postiong on the bible is going to be very infrequent for me. First I have to say to Jake Starr (and Adam West) thanks again for coming up to Baltimore to play that show with us on sept. 3 For everyone who was not there you missed one HELL of a show. I mean come on Alcoholocaust, Adam West, Mindset, and Muzzle. What a show! Adam West sounded fucking great. They were unfucking believable. Their new shit sounds so much harder than "Mondo Royale" (which still kicks ass by the way). You guys on this list have to start supporting your local scenes, or we'll have nothing left at all. Also to everyone who wants to inquire about Alcoholocaust shit, you can still send letters to the address in "From Hell They Came...", but if you want super fast service send you letters to: Alcoholocaust 209 D Garden Ridge Rd. Baltimore, MD 21228 (410)455-9923 To everyone who has had nice things to say about Alcoholocaust, thank you so much. It is really appreciated, we love you all. I also plan to make all three Alcoholocaust albums available for one low price, about $5-$10, real soon. To AZ, I got my copies of FHTC the other day. It rocks! You and the Noss busted your asses, and the end result is phenomenal. Favorite tracks go out to Bane, 138, Devilock, Ripsnorter, and too many others to name. Again thanks!

Subject: No claim to fame over any of you, just a fiend... Hello fiends... Here we go with another 5 questions. and also a thanks to rabiD doctoR, thanks for saying something. I'm not sure what you fiends realize what it takes to come up with 15 new questions a week and at least three a week that relate to the bands we are here for. plus remember these are all new questions, i have not used any questions from last year. plus all the time it takes to score this game, last sunday it took 5 hours to create new questions, score 11 players - which is reading the same answers of 15 questions each person, plus coming up with partial score amounts if they got it half or even one part right and then to type it all up for the post. Though my main goal of the game seems to have been achived, i have heard from many of you who are not even playing the game how much fun you are having just playing on your own to see what you know. It's a good thing to be aware of where your favorite band has created the music you listen to. Think of it, even if you could not find the video for one of these movies in most cases there is a book you could find to read. Which is not surprising since it is known that Glenn has for many years based songs on literature. What I am trying to say is there is no point or great accomplishment to ruin this contest for the fiends who are playing or the fiends of this bible. On to the game... Question Set #8 1) Name the one Night Stalker episode that pays homage to H.P. Lovecraft, what is the story about, and who wrote the story? 2) What was Lon Chaney Sr's real name and what was his first horror movie that he made and the year? 3) Who plays the Countess Marya Zaleska and in what movie? (Bonus 2 points Name the movie company and what year it came out?) 4) Who is the first to be killed by a Zanti, name the character and actor/ or actress? (Bonus 3 points What is a Zanti and describe it, when did it first appear(month day and year) and on what TV station did it appear?) 5) In the movie the Thing (1951) how many times did take to design what would become(the look of) the alien creature that James Arness portrays? (Bonus 5 points What country gave an "X" for adults only rating and censored parts of the movie?) well that is it for now, you know the deal, if you are playing you need to send in sets 6,7,8 to me by Sunday at 10pm.(tes777@bridge.net) Mondays bible will have all the answers for those sets, plus the questions for set #9. goodluck to all playing everyfiend have a great weekend.

Date: Fri, 17 Oct 1997 08:23:26 PDT I have just rejoined the Bible after a hiatus of about a year, and I'm surprised at the level of immaturity this forum has sunk to. Keep your petty conflicts to yourself. This is no place for people to be complaining about stupid things such as Glenn changing his last name and Michale vs. Glenn, etc. Maybe Glenn changed his name, maybe he didn't. Either way it's not going to have any effect on my life. If it has one on yours, then you're pathetic, plain and simple. And for the Michale vs. Glenn thing, bands sometimes lose members, so they recruit new ones. Michale is in the band since 95 or whatever, and American Psycho has been out since May, you should all accept that fact. Whether you like him or not is inconsequential. I don't see anyone complaining nearly as much about their other favorite bands recruiting new members. I don't hear anyone complaining that Danzig has a whole new band, or Primus has a new drummer, etc. And some of the most stupid stuff gets on here. For instance, what does it matter to us if someone who works at a record store was wearing a Samhain shirt when you bought the newest Misfits album? Inconsequential stuff like this does not deserve to grace the pages of the Misfits Bible. My tip is: get a life. The Misfits are my favorite band, but I don't walk around looking for the number 138 everywhere with my hair in a devilock all the time. There are better things to do. Only post if your contribution is worth reading. I found myself skipping most of the posts in here when I read it, where as before I would read almost every one. There's just so much garbage in here it's almost not worth subscribing anymore. This is my first post to the Bible and most likely my last. I know I'm going to take some heat for this post, and I accept that. If you have something against me or what I said, e-mail me, and I will respond accordingly. Seriously people, look at what you have here, and what you have turned it into. It was high time for a change a year ago when I stopped receiving the Bible, and it's even worse now.

I am not sure if this will get posted or even if anyone will read it but here goes. I have seen many letters from people who have loved the "Bleeders Digest" and then I have seen a few letters from people who hate it. Well this is too all those people who hate it. The "Bleeders Digest" is created for all the fans. It is for people who are true fiends and want to stand by the Misfits. This is not just some newsletter put out without the band knowing about it. They know the entire contents of the newsletter before it gets printed. They approve of it all with the hopes that the fiends will too. As for the printing costs, size is the biggest factor. You try sending out thousands of newsletters to fiends all across the U.S. If you put an extra page in with an ad it costs a lot, believe it or not, especially if no one wants to order the stuff.

(total fucking pogo punk from NJ). His boyfriend lives here and since the Blanks ain't touring again until Jan he is living with him. But any way to get to the point i asked him how comehtye weren't touring with the Misifts like so many adverttisments for thenew Blanks album said they were. and here is what he had to say; ME= So Mike how come you guys ain't touring with the Misifts like i saw in some mag. Mike= Thats a new one to me i never knew we were suppose to be touring with them. Me= well i saw some Radical Records adds saying you were. Mike=Don't know what that is all a bout, I haveasked Jerry before if we could tour with him cause he was complaining about touring with metal bands, and all he could say wasGee I would love to. Me= That cool Mike=Yeah but he wasfull of shit his manager is theone whoputs him with these bands, Jerry isn't really a smart guy. Me=What do you mean. Mike= most of what jerry said most of the time ot me was (in a dunce like voice)"Huh, wanna stick of gum" or"gonna see mykids tonight". Me=laughs Mike=yeah ain't to bright Me=well what do you think about Mike Graves Mike=He ain't to bright either, hell none of them are ME=at least they can still play Mike=yeah thats about all they can do play and lift weights then conversation drifted to how the Blink 182 video is funny but the song is crap and how he likes the Hit single from Smashmouth and how i think they are completely generic shit. trust methis story is completely true Kevin Nad "But now's the time to make it right. we stand defiant, we can't be silenced.

You know Mark, Id just like to personally apologize to you (as well as Jerry). Yes that post was a little off base, and quite unnecessary. I read it over and it was a bit to harsh. I just was, and still kinda am fed up with Jerry's lying to fans, but hey, whatever. Its not really my buisness, I guess. As for him not coming on-line because of "angry messages" like mine, thats just a line of bullshit. If he came on here, told me to shut the fuck up and gave a damn good reason, I would. Your also right that I WOULDNT say that to him in person...but isnt that the fun of the internet...to say the shit you wouldnt say in person. No, I personally dont have anything against Jerry Only, to let you know. But anyway, Jerry if your reading this, I AM SORRY FOR MY ANGRY POST, IN FACT I HAVE NO FACTUAL INFORMATION TO BACK UP WHAT I SAID. Actually, I have been quite unfair. Jerry Only has been more than nice to me as a "rock god". Jerry has called my house (wasnt home, he left a message on my machine...aggg!!), sent me free posters, and been an all around nice guy at shows. I just guess Im to quick to believe all the shit going around about him, and form my own (negative) opinions. Oh yeah, about slaming Jerry "every chance I get"...not really. I LOVE (thats right LOVE!). AMERICAN PSYCHO. I listen to the firggen thing 2wice a day, and you know what...ITS A HELL OF A LOT BETTER THAN "WALK AMONG US" (there I said it, yeesh). Hmmm..THE MISFITS put on a GREAT stage show.

If it is a band are they any good >At least, with my band, I call it THE UNDEAD . . . not the MISFITS yeah bobby!! Personally i'd rather have bobby an actual former member of the band instead of a bunchof loosers who sit infront of their computers all day and pretend to know the misfits. (That dosn't mean everyone...you know who you are) To me it's always been pretty obvious that glenn was over weight or unpopular as a kid because comic books and horror movies are the types of the things you turn to when you don't have a lot of friends to talk to ( I mean as a of 9 or 10 it's normal but when your in your mid forties and going to comic book conventions...). Maybe it would help if he would come out and say that he is a short fat lonely italian kid. And after some things that bobbies told me through e-mail It's pretty easy to tell he hard time dealing with the fact that he was getting popular and started acting like a dick to cover it up. A kid said during the last bible about role playing and that is the reason he feels that he nees TOTAL control in danzig. He wants to be like elvis :known by one name, everyone know whose singing and dosen't care about drummers and guitarist, and writes all lyrics. Next subject; I'm sort of pissed at people who say that jerry and doyle have been in the music buisness for twenty years because they haven,t. They were in it from 1977-1983 and then they did kryst which sucked and was around for two or three years (i think) hell i t probably wasn't that long even. and the rest of the time they lifted weights,worked in there dads store, and learned to play there instruments and according to that i've been in the music buisness also. so they were making music for 10 years(including the newfits suff) not twenty. Now BOBBY has been invovled with music for twenty or more years and so has GLENN Finnaly; O.k my cd copy of Initum skips over Macabre totally. It dosen't play later in the cd or anything. Is there anyone out there who has this problem. P.s. On the radio the dj said that he was going to play the misfits an then he played Horror Biz. I thought that was a Samhain song? Or was it recorded by both bands ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 17 Oct 1997 22:54:23 From: Deadite01@aol.com Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #393 I want off this bible, all you people who claim to be fiends are using stupid buzz words and looking through the 'Fits trash for sightings, if you want to be on a real bible, mail UNDEAD@JUNO.COM with your first and last name.

Hey... firstly, I just wanted to say thanx to this Mark guy, that I read about that I guess makes this bible and Misfits Central possible. Its cool that there's a place to find everything I want to know about the 'fits... and also provides a forum to read what other fiends think about everything. You people are a bunch of fuckin' freaks, and I mean that in a good way. I didn't start listening to the 'fits until about 10 years ago. I got into them retroactively, from listening to Samhain, and learning that Glenn was in a band before his current one. Anyway, I'm glad I did! I like the Misfits, past and present. I feel fortunate because I fantasized in the past about seeing them in concert, but thought that it wouldn't be possible... now not only is it possible, but I've actually seen 'em! They are great live! (although I have to resort to shitty quality videos to see Glenn singing with them) They are also extremely friendly and accomodating to their fans, as I met them after the show in Kansas City in August. If you don't like 'em... oh well... it don't hurt my feelings, but if you get the opportunity to see them live, take it! You won't be disappointed! I'm a big fan of original Danzig, too, but I think Blackacidevil sucks... I just can't figure out why he would purposely fuck up his voice like that. I wish John, Eerie, and Chuck were back, and that they put out a good albums again. He he he... if I pissed anyone off with this post.... whatthefuck!?!?

The CD has 38 tracks, and I believe is over 70min. The Artwork: Cool cover (its reversable...I prefer the inside cover : ). Nice foldout, liner notes, what have you. My only complaint is weak, weak back cover art. Yeesh. Other than that, quite nice. Music: Wow. Its all pretty much great...let me try to remember the standouts. Def Con 3 - "I Turned into a Martian" (acoustic): Not to sound to much like Jerry Only, but I believe I had this idea some time ago. Me and my band ("My GirlFriends Possessed") were gonna do this one for Jake Star's tribute. We never got to record it, but I DID tell Jake I was interested in doing an acoustic "Martian". Anyway, maybe he gave the idea to you guys, but it originated from me : ) Let me just say, you did quite a nice job, much better than what I would have done. Devilock tracks: You guys are AMAZING!!! Great, GREAT versions of three Misfits classics. Where can I get more of you guys??!!!!?? Idiot Police "We Are 138", and THX1138 "Static Age": Two of the most heavy stuff on here. Nice, very nice. Mean, crushing, aggresive...you guys would make Glenn proud. The Ska Walkers "I Turned into a Martian": Best version of Martian on here, these guys give it a nice ska-groove. Spinetingler "Halloween": This ones real cool. An instrumental version of Halloween. Keyboards supplying the vocals. Those are really the standout tracks, but definitly cheers go out to Ripsnorter, Bane, Undermine, The Fleshworms (gotta love that fuck around, drunk sound!!), and those Graver Robber guys. Everyone should get this one, and as much as I LOVE some tracks on "Violent World", Id have to say this ones damn near better.

GRIND ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 19 Oct 1997 23:58:21 From: Jeremy Subject: Black Aria questions Hey all, Someone wrote asking about the meaning of Cwn Anwnn and The Morrigu on Black Aria by Danzig. I'm no expert but I think I know the answer. Cwn Anwnn: Was a castle in the realm of Anwnn or Anwvyn. It's meaning is probably place of the dead. The king of Anwnn was called Arawn lord of the Underworld. So it was a kind of Pagan version of Hell. However Pagans never had a Hell so they probably partied a lot there. The Morrigu: Probably another spelling for Morrigan. I found this online about Morrigan and I think it says it all: >"Morrigan is an ancient Celtic goddess who was worshipped in the old celtic >Ireland. Because of the simularity in the names Morgaine (Morgan LeFey of >Arthurian legend fame) was often confused with Morrigan. It is even said that >Morgaine was a medieval remain of the old image of Morrigan. Knowing both >Morrigan and Morgaine, it is not such a stupid idea." > >The Morrigan has a number of other names, such as: Great Queen, >Specter Queen, Supreme War Goddess and Queen of Phantoms or Demons. >Great Mother, Moon Goddess, Great White Goddess, Queen of the Fairie, >Patroness of Priestesses and Witches and Queen of the Witches. >If you compare this to Morgaine, you will find out that however >Morgaine was not a goddess, she was a princess among priestesses who >worshipped the Great Mother (the Moon Goddess). > >Nevertheless, it seems that The Morrigan was looked at as an evil goddess. In >her dark site, she is the Goddess of War, Fate and Death. As a War Goddess, she >reigned over the battlefield, helping with her magic, but did not join in >battles. She was seen washing bloody laundry prior to battle by those destined >to die. She was also a shapeshifter and often turned into a raven or hooded >crow. The carrion crow was her favorite disguise. Hope this clears it up. Oh and btw. I've seen someone say that Samhain was a God. Uh-uh. Samhain is the name of a celtic festival, not a God. There is absolutely no evidence to the contrary. later, jeremy knox ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Oct 1997 13:38:14 From: Peter Revesz Subject: Change of address, etc Dear Everyone, Please note that my new address is 57A Jasmine Grove Penge London SE20 8JY Tel: 0181 402 8021 Mob: 0958 603038 New email: pt53rd@dircon.co.uk Thanks for your attention and cooperation, Peter. ------------------------------ From: "LODI AMBASSADOR" Subject: LODI, STEVE ZING INTERVIEW, GLENN's LAST NAME.....and MORE! Date: Sun, 19 Oct 1997 00:47:08 Ok Fiends...you wanted it? You got it! I had the most amazing opportunity this weekend in Lodi...I had the chance to sit down with Steve Zing for a couple of hours and talk shop about the bands...past and present. Look for the complete transcription of my interview with Steve on my site pretty soon. I learned a lot about Glenn that night, and it was startling to say the least. I also got lots of new pictures of the guys in school.... As for Glenn's last name... Glenn's last name... Hmmm....Glenn's last name you say? Well, look on the albulms...I believe it says "Danzig" If you don't believe it, ask him maybe. What does it matter anyway? I don't think it is a matter of national security that it may or may not be his real name. I don't think anyone is going to die from it, one way or the other. Actors and actresses do it all the time. Privacy, catchiness, or whatever...names are changed all the time. I know that it says "Glenn Danzig" on his license in CA. End of subject. Give it a rest please. You don't think DungeonMaster is my real name do you? It's really Marvin Footsicle...and I had it legally changed because i cried about it a lot. DM Hey! One other thing!

Hope yours was equally good! ------------------------------ Date: 20 Oct 1997 13:09:55 From: bible@zombie.plan-9.com Subject: Lodi Bands Hey fiends - since there isn't really any new news to report, I figured I'd take some time to review music by other lesser known Lodi bands some of you might be interested in hearing. I'll start with the earlier stuff. VICTIMS - Victims 7" 1978 (on Plan 9 Records) --- I only know of the Victims because they're the only other band ever to be released on Plan 9 Records. The Victims and Misfits are also linked by the fact that Victims vocalist Rick Riley played guitar for The Misfits for 2 shows in '78 after Franche' Coma left the band. This EP has an X-rated side ("Annette" and "I Want Head") and a PG-side ("Behind The Times" and "Nervous"). The best songs are "Annette" and "Behind The Times." Honestly, I don't listen to this EP too often, but it's good. If you're lucky enough to track one down (there were just 500 copies put out in '78), hold onto it... it's quite the collector's item (Thanks Denmom). CONTINENTAL CRAWLER - Promotional Pollution 7" 1979 (featuring Mr. Jim) --- Listening to this 7" makes it obvious why Mr. Jim didn't stay with The Misfits for too long. The music on this 7" is much more laid back and "rock and roll" than anything the Misfits ever did. The songs are longer and more complex than anything the Misfits ever did, and they all have guitar solos. The best song on this EP is easily the first one, a song called "Time Flies When I'm Dancin'," which a friend of mine once mistook for the Grateful Dead. I think this EP is a lot of fun, but it's certainly not for the "punk-or-nothing" types who rule this mailing list. The band put 1000 copies of this 7" out in March of '79. Some of you may remember that his EP was available for sale through the bassist Mike Myers on the web page back in the fall of '94. It is very much out of print and extremely hard to find. ACTIVE INGREDIENTS - Hyper Exaggeration 7" 1980 (featuring Franche' Coma) - Laundramat Loverboy 7" 1980 --- After The Misfits, Franche' Coma joined his buddy Mike Morance in the Active Ingredients. This band, which also featured Undead drummer Eddy Enzyme, put out 2 7" singles sometime in 1980. I can't really compare their music to anything else I've ever heard. Loaded with crazy keyboards and bizarre lyrics, the songs sound like a twisted cross between the Doors and the Cure, with elements of everything else thrown in here and there. Franche' and Mike play guitar and bass on both singles, and Mike sings. The music takes a while to get used to, but it's fun, crazy stuff. The band put out 500 copies of each single on their own Active Records label. Sleeve artwork for both singles was done by Chris Morance (later of Mourning Noise, I'm Afraid, etc) and is as bizarre as the music. "Hyper Exaggeration" is the best song by far, but both singles are worth tracking down, if you can find them. MOURNING NOISE - Mourning Noise 7" 1982 (featuring Steve Zing) - Mourning Noise / Parasites split 7" 1990 --- One of the most under-rated bands of all time, Mourning Noise recorded some great songs in 1982-1983. Their first 7" features 5 of these songs, including "Dawn Of The Dead," the first track off the EP, and probably one of their better known songs. The first EP is loaded with Lodi family members - besides Steve Zing, Chris Morance plays bass, and both Bobby Steele and Mike (Ashley) Morance provide special effects. This is one of my favorite 7" singles. The second 7" has live versions from '82 of the great "Demon Eyes" and "Crimson Carrie," as well as A.O.D.'s "Progress For The People." Mourning Noise has an upcoming "discography" CD with all their recordings ever. In my opinion, the stuff they didn't release is better than the stuff on the two 7" singles, and I'm very much looking forward to it. Look for more news in the near future in the Misfits Bible and on the Misfits web page. ROSEMARY'S BABIES - Blood Lust 7" 1983 (featuring Eerie Von) --- Before he played bass for Samhain and Danzig, Eerie played drums at rocket speed for Rosemary's Babies, a band that opened for The Misfits one night in '83. The songs on this EP are fast... very fast. Some of the songs on this EP follow the Misfits gruesome style of lyrics, but with a more realist twist. Rosemary's Babies based their music more on every day topics than on horror movies. The music is aggressive hard-core style, and I don't think any of the songs last longer than a minute and a half. The cover art is great - it's a collage of pictures of the band members with some "Misfits" snuck in here and there. If you can find this EP, definitely pick it up. If you can't find it, but want a copy, you can still buy it at collectors' prices - email me (fiend@plan-9.com) for more information. ANTIDOTE - Thou Shalt Not Kill 7" 1983 (featuring Arthur Googy) --- As much as I'd like to review this record, I can't, because I've never seen it or heard it. It is apparently one of the most sought-after records out there, and yet, I don't know anybody who has this record. If you've got a copy for sale, or know of one, please let me know. STEVE ZING - Runaway 7" 1986 (featuring Steve Zing obviously) --- Featuring Steve Zing on vocals and drums, and the Morance brothers on bass, guitars, and synthesizers, this 7" consists of 2 different cover versions of Del Shannon's "Runaway." This 7" sounds to me like a cross between Samhain, and Steve's later band Chyna. Chyna is a completely different story which I've covered before. Chyna plays mostly in the NJ/NY area and has released 2 CDs. They have a new CD coming out soon. Check out the official Chyna page (http://www.eclipse.net/~vulcan/chyna.htm) for more information! I'M AFRAID - I'm Afraid cassette 1989 (featuring Post Mortem & Chris Morance) --- This four-song cassette EP is a collaboration between Rosemary's Babies' bassist Post Mortem and Mourning Noise's bassist Chris Morance. After Rosemary's Babies broke up in '83, Eerie and Post Mortem started a short-lived project with Chris Morance - when Eerie joined Samhain, the project was put on hold until '85 when Chris and Post Mortem picked up where they left off. Recorded in 1989, this tape mixes techno and gothic music - in some ways it reminds me of Eerie Von and Mike Morance's UNEASY LISTENING album, but with less emphasis on horror, and more emphasis on despair. The music is mostly instrumental, with lots of synthesizer and drum machine effects, and some guitar and bass. The second song, "Imaginary," is my favorite. This cassette, unlike the other stuff I've mentioned, is still readily available. If you'd like a copy, email me (fiend@plan-9.com) for more information. --- If you'd like to hear Continental Crawler, Active Ingredients, Mourning Noise, the Victims, or Steve Zing, please go to http://misfits.plan-9.com/collect/christ.html or email cternes@knox.edu.

According to Eddie Van Migraine, the FIENDZ have finally realized that I never screwed them. This happened in 1991. They were just kids - who didn't know better. I'd spent the previous 4 years helping these guys get their band going. When I lost my band - they offered to be my backup for a few tours. The first tour went really well. When the second tour came along - it looked like we might actually make money . . . until two gigs in the first week got cancelled at the last minute. These were the "money" gigs - and it meant we lost $1100.00 in guarantees right there. I got beat up pretty bad, by a skinhead, in Lawrence, KS (another misunderstanding - he apologized later). The FIENDZ had brought their own van, and it broke down at one point, and I paid for the repairs. The agreement was that they would handle all the equipment, and I'd handle the business. Then they asked if they could bring along a friend to help - so I agreed. I was giving each of them $10.00/day for food (exactly the same as I got), and if they didn't have a place to stay, I'd get them a hotel room. Then they started refusing to do additional gigs that were being offered to us. When I left them, in Texas, it was just a few days after getting beat up, and my eye was swollen to the size of an egg (steel toed boots hurt). I was in a lot of pain, and they were complaining and demanding more than we'd agreed on. I was losing sleep. I sat down and figured it out, and there was no way I was gonna break even on this mess. It may not have been the right thing to do, but I was in serious pain, and morale was at an all time low. I just took my guitars and amp, loaded them into my car, and left - after paying for their hotel room, which they demanded even though they had a free place to stay. They wren't "stranded" they had their van. That was about as close as THE UNDEAD ever got to playing in Texas. This feud went on for years. They even did a song about it. recently, THE MIGRAINES did some shows with them, and they told Eddie that they wanted to put an end to it all. They finally realized that it was a misunderstanding. I think I lost about $800.00 on that tour. So I tried to recoup by putting out LIVE SLAYER, but SKYCLAD records sold a shitload and skipped town with the money. ya gotta love this business. >it could be a bullshit story,although this was not the only person to >tell me about it.so,if this story is true,i hope you like how it feels >get what you deserve,if it is false,i apologize. It's because I've been screwed that I know how it feels, and I would never do it to anyone. Not even Jerry or Glenn In fact, I was approached in '90, by a big promoter. He asked me "would you be willing to swallow your pride to get together with Glenn for a MISFITS tour ?" I told him flat out. Sure, I would. But only if it included Jerry. >From: punkture >Subject: glenn > >Who are any of you to be talking about glenn having emotional problems >because he was a short fat kid?You want to know how he wrote those >amazing lyrics?Listen to Mommy Can I Go Out And Kill Tonight?

As for as who the "real" Misfits are, no one complains about Henry Rollins being the third singer of Black Flag. Honestly I thought Keith Morris was a better singer but Henry had better songs. But then again throughout Black Flag no matter what line up it had it still was a hardcore punk band. Not like some horror punk I know that used to be punk as hell and turned to cheesy metal!!

Bitch and moan til you're blue in the face about real/fake "new" Misfits, whoever in the band vs those no longer in the band, and whatever else has been the neat-o bandwagon of the week, but you're not gonna' change a thing the Misfits are doing - like it or not.

Hell, he'd >kick anyone this side of Eddie Van Halen or Eric Clapton. I've heard of Steve Vai. He and all other "shredders" as they are called bore the living piss out of me. What makes him one of the "best guitarists ever"? Cause Guitar World says so? What is so special about his playing that he would kick my ass. I dont care for his style, his 7 string guitar (real original concept too, Gretsch made 7 string guitars in the 60s like the Van Epps) or his 20 minute songs. And Eric Crapton? Shit the last good album he did was Disraeli Gears with Cream. He should have retired about 25 years ago. But I digress ... none of this has anything to do with the Misfits so I'll end the thread here. >I agree with Jeremy Kill's comments about Danzig. When you aren't "fit, >tall and handsome," people WILL give you bullshit. And if you are fit, tall and handsome people give you shit too.

Well, being tall you have little control over, but having long hair and being fat is all your choice. Do you make fun of the "jocks" in school, or the brainiacs who study hard and carry all their books around, or the stoners, or the fags, or whoever. Face it, everybody has their little clique and they make fun of everyone who isn't just like them. And it doesnt change when you get older. And how do you know what Danzig went through or didnt go through? Nobody here knows except for the people who knew him, and only 2 or 3 of them ever post here.

Sure, its not the same thing, but when faced with the choice of seeing NO Misfits, versus seeing SOME Misfits, I'll go see them. I have seen them now about 5 times, and I must say they do a great job. I saw the DKs twice in 1986, and I doubt I would see them with anyone else attempting to sing, so I can understand where you friend is coming from. I've never seen Minor Threat, if they came to my town with someone else singing, sure I'd go see them. Its not like the real deal will ever get back together, so why not? If it sucks, I'm out 15 bucks but all the wiser. If its good, then I found a new band to like. I don't see why not to give them a chance, but its always tough to compare when you've seen the real deal.

Not only is this a major generalization , but probably the most fucking assinine thing i have read in a while. My dear friend exactly what is it that made you become a fan of this band? I=A0know for me it was the "evilive" album (thats right i said ALBUM) i saw the crimson ghost inserted into what is the artwork for a horror film called "THE UNDEAD" I found the connection between the band/music/look/lyrics to be very out of the ordinary. WHY WOULD YOU BUY A MISFITS "ANYTHING" IF YOU WERENT A HORROR FAN? As far as your "generalization" of a horror fan, I'm a whopping 5 5' who first got laid at 16 , and what i forgot about this genre you will never know. In high school my biggest problem was who was digging me what particular week and how could i keep it from my steady (thats right a relationship). Now at 28 I still buy horror merchandise ,have had a monster collection since i was 5. Ive never had a problem making friends. While i know this was not directed at me personally, just had to post something after reading your comments. You sounded like some high school preppy with asshole soup of the mouth. Horror /sci fi are the most underrated film genres. Critics hate em , studios dent em. Yet, they almost all make money (as long as theyre done well.) Same thing with punk and metal (true metal not the 80,s l.a. bullshite) record execs deny while the kids all buy. DO YOU SEE THE CONNECTION??? its that whole vibe of being the underdog. Did you ever stop to think people are fans of this genre as a way of accepting death/mortality? As far as people going to conventions, do you have problem with people who; build models, race cars , own train sets its called a HOBBY. Whats wrong with alittle escapism=A0now and then? many people will agree thats how the misfits came to be In the first place.Everyone seems to have problem with glenn danzig and his persona and interests well without them back15 years ago things might never have happened.

For my part, I tend to believe Glenn's side of the story that he disbanded the Misfits, if only because he is obviously the one who emerged in the stronger position afterwards (owning the rights -- and continuing to release albums). But on the other hand, I don't think Jerry is really "lying" either. > Interpret it how you wish, but let me promise you that he had no intention > of insulting your intelligence. It's just an interesting point. You're > obviously reaching for every chance to slam this guy. As are many others. I think Jerry has said many stupid things. I think that Jerry is not half the songwriter Glenn is on his worst day. But I also think that Jerry is basically a sincere guy -- even if a bit deluded sometimes (then again, I'm not a former or current band member, so what do I know about what is really going on?). Sometimes he goes out of his way (or seems to) to slag Bobby and Glenn -- whereas Bobby only makes responses to direct comments of Jerry's; and Glenn generally only insults (or even mentions) the Misfits when he is asked directly about them (and sometimes he doesn't comment at all). I can sort of see why some people call Jerry a used car salesman -- but I think all of these theories about how he just restarted the band to hoard money for his father, and how he really doesn't care about the fans, blah blah -- that's all just completely ridiculous. If he really *only* wanted to make money, he could afford to do a lot LESS in terms of signing autographs and giving away free stuff. > This is an interesting point... but he might not be lying. He has stated > before that he's part German, and perhaps he is. Perhaps there's a member > of his family somewhere whose last name is Danzig. For all we know, it > could be his mother's maiden name. He never directly says that Danzig > was always his last name. It is possible that he has family named "Danzig" -- but it's far more likely that he's just lying to protect his own privacy. Think about it -- there have "rumours" going around that Danzig isn't his name, but how many people reading SECONDS have actually seen his highschool photo? So he probably figures he can just flat-out refute the rumour, and 99% of the people will shut up about it. The 1000 or 2000 or whatever number of people now read the Bible, and thus know the truth, still make up only a minute percentage of worldwide Danzig, Misfits, and Samhain fans. In all likelihood, if his mother's maiden name was "Danzig" then Jerry or someone might have known this, but Jerry only says that Glenn chose the name "for some evil associated with it" or because it sounded cool or whatever. BTW, there have been about thirty different spellings of his real name on here lately. The correct one is "Anzalone." Anz*A*lone.

This How you came to this conclusion I have no idea. Far from "believing he is" one of these people, Glenn consistently downplays the influences that Elvis and Morrison had on him -- He claims that he only likes a few albums by each. I've never seen him in a Vegas suit on-stage. When asked if he idolized Morrison, he said something like, "I don't idolize an overweight alcoholic." As for the Wolverine thing, being short and growing sideburns does not mean you believe yourself to be a fictional character. What's more, Glenn once said that he'd rather play Lobo than Wolverine. > From: Hope Tornowske > thought that too, then they basically predicted me all too well).

At the time of the incident, Metallica just finished touring with Danzig, they looked up to Glenn, loved his music, and being that they hung out with Glenn alot, they grew on Glenn's side. That was almost ten years ago... I was talking to Hetfield & Hammett in Cincinnati last April about the Misfits. The first words out of Hetfield's mouth was "I was really surprised with the new Misfits. It reminds me a lot of the early 'Fits which I love. It makes you think if Glenn really had EVERYTHING to do with it. Or...they could've copied the formula, which is just fine!" Hammett was also giving good words about American Psycho. I made sure to ask what they thought of Danzig 5...both of which (keep in mind they LOVE(d) Danzig) hated it. I think it was the '94 tour that really opened their eyes toward Glenn and the new 'Fits opened up new respect for Jerry & Doyle. Personally, I would've much rather seen the 'Fits tour with Metallica than Megadeth. Metallica would've made sure that they would've got all that they wanted. Hell...co-headlining...Misfits with pyros...shit. I think that it would be pretty amazing. I don't see it happening and I'm not going to hold my breath. And alternashit...give the new record a listen (avail. 11/18)...some HEAVY sounds on there.

That's wonderfully irrelevant, since it goes to support nothing else you've said so far (or are about to say.)

Once again -- you're really threatened by the idea of someone usurping your authority, aren't you? How and when did Persephone imply that you weren't running the contest? From what I read, she didn't. But you keep implying that she did, nevertheless. From the facts I see, I think you should reexamine your accusations of being delusional, in light of the concept of projection. > As i said before i have no > problem with fiends just jumping in and sending in answers or joining the > game late. no you had to try to get attention by posting the answers, > which by the way you had two wrong. I think it is, once again, demonstrative of a fundamental vindictiveness on your part when you speculate and assign unsavory motives to others to provide a putative justification for your attack. How do you know that Persephone was "try[ing] to get attention by posting the answers?" Why not just assume that she posted them because she didn't know the rules, like she said? Ever hear of Ockham's Razor? > In simple, think about what you are saying before you post. You should heed your own advice... > Or trying to > screw up a bible Contest in progress(unintentional or otherwise) How can you "unintentionally try" to screw up a contest? I appreciate what you're doing here, and I think you consistently contribute both meaningful and fun items to the Bible. But your last response was unnecessarily nasty and unwarranted. There are enough flames on the Bible already; from what I've seen before, you have a lot worthier items for consideration than skewering someone who doesn't follow your rules in a particular instance. And besides, it didn't hurt anything, since the answers were _already_ posted along with the answers Persephone provided. So no adverse consequences befell the contest itself. All it comes down to is this: someone overlooked the instructions, and made a harmless mistake. Is that really such a problem? Whose anal-retentive Weltanschauung is going to crumble to ashes because of it? No one's. Let's just get on with more productive things than worrying about who broke what rule and effected some harmless end... In other news, is Danzig really playing at the Whiskey on Halloween, or is this just another rumor, a la the Cramps show? The LA WEEKLY lists "Blackacidevil" as the band for that night. Why would they list it that way? Does anyone have tickets, or know anything more conclusively? Just curious...

So, yeah, at least we know Graves smoke huh? I also want to ask permission to link this and Misfits Central to my hp. I already have the Misfits Fiend Club address and a slight hint, with another "punk band" page with a lot of info on every punk band anybody could think of! I enjoy the info I get on the Misfits from the Bible, but everybody needs to really get over this "Graves vs. Danzig" thing. Glenn is not part of the band anymore. Yeah, he was, and still is a great singer, songwriter, etc... But, we have to acknowledge The Misfits for who they are now and if you ask me I think Graves was a pretty damn great replacement!

First off let me try to correct somethings I remember..... The Misfits song Mars Attacks follows the trading cards. The movie would have been better if it followed the rare trading cards from 1965. The martians invade the earth and pretty much destroy everything, then the army goes to mars and blows them up. I have a reproduction of the trading cards. The cards are very gorey, it's no wonder they were immediatly taken off the market. I also think the Misfits song would have fit perfectly in the movie during the credits. I have said this before. The instrumental used during the Misfits animation on MTV was not Attitude, it was Mars Attacks. 138, San Fransisco's number 1 Misfits Samhain Danzig tribute band are breaking up. If you live nearby and can get us a show, let us know at http://www.138.org We may be able to play a show or two before we turn into pumpkins. I see that Glenn Danzig will be at an Oakland Comic book convention Nov. 1st and 2nd. I also see that the Misfits will be playing San Fransico Nov. 1st and still in the area on the 2nd.....wonder if paths will be crossed. The Psychoanalysis of Uncle Glenn. That guy had it pretty much all right except he left one thing out, He should take in this data and re-analize. Jerry has said that back in the old days "Glenn was like a big brother to me" Also, I noticed that in the box set book, in a 1978 band photo, Glenn has a bare chest of hair, then in the Initium book There is a picture of Glenn at the Unholy Passion session and he has a full chest of hair. In 1978 he was like 22, Explain his late growth of hair. I have heard no other name, Glenn's real last name is Anzalone. No Anzelone, Anzilone, or Analzone.

Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 01:25:44 -0500 Have any of you seen Glenn "Danzig's" high-school pic? It's a gas. Outrageous I tell you! I mean in between that time to '88 or so it appears that he looked nothing like that picture, but now he looks almost EXACTLY like that picture again, minus the fat! Weird. No devilock (I know, that didn't come until 78-79 or so), but he does sport a mop that is reminiscent of Chewbacca. Oh, and now he has a new nose, too-I think. Anybody know if those were the Talus days? Hey Dungeonmaster, where would I need to go to on your website to read that Steve Zing interview? ------------------------------ From: "Jeremy Kill" Subject: Cough/Cool 7" Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 01:27:44 -0500 Hey, I e-mailed the guy who is selling those things for $2.00 and he never sent me a response. Is this a hoax? ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 05:48:45 -0400 (EDT) From: Necro138@aol.com Subject: Response too Ghoulfiend This is a response to: GhoulFiend@aol.com Subject: A FEW COMMENTS: You are someone who tries to associate yourself with the Misfits, and you must think all the fiends are pretty stupid. You said you "check in" once in a while to see whats going on with the bible? And ask fiends to call magazines, and visit your website, to help you peddle your crap. You must think that you've got a ready made audience by trying to appeal to people on the bible, or in the fiend club, by trying to pawn yourself off as the "Queen of the Fiends" Just because you wear your hair in a devilock, and pose for some cheap pictures, dosen't make you some beloved Misfits figure. "Mistress to the HorrorKid"? (or anyone else that will give me attention!) > I think Doug Evil does a great job with Squirt and is only expressing >his love for The Misfits. Plus, he gets to promote Squirt in exchange for >all the help he's given the band with the Fiend Club. All his heart and soul >goes into that zine so give the fiend a break! Buy Squirt #2! Bleeder's Diegest sux! and so does Squirt! The ONLY reason your asking fiends to buy Squirt#2 is because you are in it! Hellen Blazes sux! What does that have to do with the Misfits? the editor should put less work into drawing bad cartoons and more work into writing about the Misfits. Plus, the guy isn't just promoting squirt. He is selling it. And it is just a lot of dumb crap. >"I rarely check the Bible", Yeah unless i have something i want to sell,or if i need a free ad for my website. >"Maybe the rules should be posted in every issue before the questions so the Bible doesn't become a social clique and anyone can play the game without confusion". Most of us already know the rules. I guess you wouldn't , because as you said you "rarely check the bible". ------------------------------ From: Dalkiel@webtv.net (David Jackson) Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 06:12:49 -0500 Subject: Anyone Taping Danzig 10/31/97 Is anyone out there gonna try and video or run a DAT t the upcoming Danzig show at The Whiskey 10/31/97 in Hollywood, CA ..

The e-mail address is MTVTOP10@AOL.com. -The cartoon: The Misfits animated series is a project that is in development with Non-Homogenized Productions Ltd. John, who is also an animator, took an interest in Doug Evil's caricatures, and taught Doug the basics of animation. This technique enabled him to create artwork that could be utilized in a simple, yet effective loopable sequence. John conveyed the type of scenes and action he would like to take place in the animation to Doug, who in turn would create the drawings. After Doug completed the artwork, John decided how to make the most action out of the few drawings created for each simple scene or sequence. After shooting and animating the art, John had live action backgrounds such as clouds, smoke etc. composited into the animated footage. The live action footage was tinted in colors that John felt would add to the surrealistic feel of the piece. John has a treatment which develops the personality of the series and characters such as the pumpkins John has adapted to Punkins'(for obvious reasons). John assures that the series is not kiddie oriented and not for Saturday morning. He is a big fan of sick & twisted cartoons like "Lupo the Butcher" and intends to keep it in that vein. He has titled the series "MISFITS RE-ANIMATED". It will of course be VERY driven by the music of the MISFITS. The trailer is merely the breaking ground for the series and is in no way a completely developed representation of what the series itself will have to offer. The soundtrack for the trailer is an early instrumental version of "Mars Attacks". This version was recorded in May of 1996 after the Misfits European tour. Currently unreleased, it is possible this version of the track may surface on a future release from the Misfits. A sneak preview of the series trailer was recently aired on MTV's 120 minutes. -The Bride of Frankenstein Intro Version: The Bride of Frankenstein intro to the Bones video was not aired on MTV as Geffen records is not interested in soliciting the video with the intro. Only Non-Homogenized Prod. Ltd. and the Misfits have been distributing the intro version. Although, Non-Homogenzied did supply the intro version to MTV we are unfortunately vetoed by any Geffen corporate decisions. If you have a copy of the Intro version its rare. -Bones video: different version or mix of the song? - We had a couple of people asking about this: (to tell you the truth we are very impressed by those who noticed!) It isnt a different version or mix, its remastered. When John received a DAT(Digital Audio Tape) of the song Bones he noticed that the overall levels were blown out and distorted. He figured it must have been a hot or bad dub to DAT so he explained this to Geffen and requested another DAT. After one of the engineers at Geffen looked into it for him, he discovered that the CD itself was mastered hot,(meaning the overall levels were mastered too high creating distortion on the track and blurring out some of the subtleties in the song. By the time the recording goes down to CD its not as noticeable, but a DAT on a set of professional grade speakers all is revealed. So we had the track remastered to DAT from the recording studios master. When you watch the video the difference you notice is hearing the track at its most pristine, even more so than the CD. -Psycho Video: Finally, the video for The Abominable Dr. Phibes/American Psycho is still in post-production. A Halloween release for Phibes/Psycho is doubtful. More than likely it will be released sometime in November. Well keep you posted. In the meantime, here are some jpegs, for Halloween. G.E.O.

Now you know why I rarely post anymore! Well, the black flag analogy is a bad one, because all of the singers were for the that band were the mouthpieces for Greg Ginn's songs. Sure they contributed, but Ginn was Black Flag. I used to think Rollins ruined that band, and I think it was just coincidence that it happened around the time he joined. I like Morris too, as well as Chavo and Dez, much better than Henry, but none of them really contributed much songwriting. If you listen too Everything Went Black, Damaged, Jealous Again EP or whatever, its all the same songs with different vocalists.

Have you ever heard of Sid Vicious or Johnny Rotten? Give it a rest. Bleeders Diegest: This is lame. I have received two of these so far, and all I do is look at the photos and then throw it in the trash. It's corny. It's got some stupid cartoons and nothing of interest to read. I get better info here on the Bible. We should be able to order tons of stickers, patches, shirts and other stuff at discounted prices. There is nothing there of any substance.

Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 19:09:55 -0400 Ok...first! The Steve Zing interview needs to be transcribed off of the video tape I made that night. This is obviously going to take a while, as it's about 45 minutes long. I'll post when it's done. Thanks to everyone who expressed interest in the interview. Next! Glenn, Glenn, Glenn.... Why must everyone try to analyze the man? I can appreciate the views expressed, but why not let that go...He is a very complex individual, and no one knows what goes on in his mind except him. The only people qualified to make assessments about him are those who are close to him. I don't even see the relevance here... So what if he was not in the best physical condition in high school? So what if he had cosmetic surgery? I don't feel that any of that matters. I must ask one question.. When you go to buy new music, do you check out the biographical info on the artist before you buy? If you read that the artist had surgery to correct an eye problem, would you say.. "oh my god...surgery!?!?!?! I can't buy this record since he isn't the same as the day he was born!!!" Let it rest ... Please resond in private if you must...

What I didn't subscribe to was to hear all you fucking babies whine on about 'how much the new Misfits suck' blah blah and all that other crap you snivel about. The Misfits Bible is a GREAT idea and I'm sick of you nitwits fucking it all up. Who the fuck cares who sings now? Glenn is gone: get over it. If you prefer him than just listen to the 'Fits old stuff and Danzig's new stuff. Don't come here and bitch. The name on the CD is The Misfits; deal with it. Oh yeah I forgot...138 sighting! In Star Wars: A New Hope, when the disguised Han and Luke bring Chewbacca to the Detention Block in the Death Star, the resident officer asks, 'Where are you taking this...thing?" To which Luke replies, "Prisoner transfer from cell block 1138."

Even though the did everything they could to get all the old metalheads riled up to no avail they didn't go oh st Louie sucks. They came and hung out with all us fans and Jerry Only came up and gave my brother (a quadripalegic) a hug. Jerry didn't have to he had no idea who my bro was but he did it regardless. Then they signed all everyone's shit and did about five last calls for autographs before they went to the showers and CHUD came and hung out for about a half hour just talking with everyone. I first heard the Misfits thru my older bro when I was in 3rd grade with Glenn singing and i think the "new" Misfits are still just as good as old. nothing lasts forever and people mature which would account for their slightly different sound on AP. So waht I am saying if you were wondering is to me they are just as good as ever and super nice. They don't seem to me to be in it for the money at all.

You sound like a nice intelligent guy, and I'd probably e-mail you directly if I had my own computer, but I don't, so I can't get any replies. I got the Sloppy Seconds single, and Live Slayer, and enjoyed both. I'm a little pissed that the CD version of Live Slayer doesn't have Rattfink on it, though. I've never seen the vinyl. Plus it took me three or four years to notice the picture of Glenn on the cover. I liked it! Anyway, I have a question about that band the Fiendz. Did they put out a CD a while back? I saw a CD with a Vampira-type on the cover and a song called Zombie-a-go-go or something like that. I would've bought it on that basis alone, because it sounds like something a Misfits fan would like. It was in the Get-Rid-of-the-Fucking-Thing-Now bin in a store priced at $1.00. I listened to it there at the store, and put it back. It sucked hard. I didn't even want to pay a dollar for it. I bought Sweet-tarts instead. Is this the same band? The Collector's Guide to Heavy Metal has listings for all the Danzig albums plus Black Aria. The guy reviewing it hated the first couple, liked the next two, giving IV a 10 out of 10, which is classic classic. Blackaciddevil got a 0, which I thought was a little harsh. I kinda liked it, though Danzig should not obscure his voice. Plus, I was wondering, how do Jerry's kids like the band? Does anybody know? I would assume he feels slightly embarrassed as a parent to play the older stuff because of the cursing, so he cleaned up the lyrics for AP. Am I right about that? ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 23 Oct 1997 00:00:11 -0400 (EDT) From: GhoulFiend@aol.com Subject: Catfight!!!!

All in all I do look forward to it and do get excited when it comes. The only thing i think is kinda honky about it is the Helen Blazes character. Honestly, when i first saw her character i was quite surprised that the misfits would put an obvious big breasted female character to atract readers on the cover, and now she writes columns too?! Come on, that's really lame. Other than her i really like it. I did write to them and answered the questionaire which i think everyone should do so they can make it better. Let voice be heard you know, it's for us, so lets help the makers of it out and let them know what we think. Anyways, thats my take. Mark: Is their going to be anything special for the Halloween issue of the bible? There should atleast be something different. If anyone has a copy of the Dig Up Her Bones blue 7" that they're willing to part with, let me know. I'd be willing to trade and/or buy it at a reasonable price. -Nick TS ------------------------------ From: "Stephen A Perry (Weird Al)" Subject: Misfits, Old and New... Date: Thu, 23 Oct 1997 00:51:33 -0400 When I first got into the Misfits (August this year), I had never heard the old stuff. I only heard the new stuff. I recently got the box set so I could get into the older music. I like the old music, as well as the new. Since the new album is only about 40 minutes long, it's so easy to run through the whole thing while driving across town or to work. So, in that aspect, it doesn't feel like a big enough accomplishment. I think it's too short. BUT, this album was meant as a new beginning for the new Misfits. I think as the band grows, the music will speak for itsself. People say the new Misfits did a total reversal with Teenagers from Mars/I turned into a Martian as compared to Mars Attacks. I think people are missing the point. It's still good music. The new Misfits actually plays the old songs better than the old Misfits. The drummer is a lot better in the new band. Granted, Glenn has an awesome voice when he wants to sing, but I think Michale is going to do just as well, given the chance. People bicker on here about this and that. Fans want things the way they used to be. There's always going to be someone who doesn't like this or that. I can honestly say I have a positive attitude about the new Misfits, because it's a new start for a band that otherwise wouldn't exist today. I'm just grateful that they are back together, making new music. After all, that's what any band exists for...to play, to create, etc. I'm on the Bible to talk with other fans and hear about experiences, not to hear nitpicking about things that will never matter, even if argued about for eternity. There's a saying I made up during my previous relationship with a girlfriend. I think it sums up the whole idea I want to get across..."You're right, I'm wrong. There's nothing more to argue about. It's over."

Second, there should have been a booklet with all the lyrics, some pictures and some shit Eerie Von wrote. Third, you should have found a Fiend Club pin in there too. (Is the inside of the Box lined with a red, velvety type of fabric? Because it should.) Unless there is an alternate version of the Box Set, I think somebody screwed you, big time, and hard up the ass. The best thing to do is to open it up at the record store first (if they let you). That's why I buy most of my CD's at record stores where they'll open up CD's for you and let you listen to them before you buy. (HMV for example). J.P.

John, who is also an animator, took an interest in Doug Evil's caricatures, and taught Doug the basics of animation. This technique enabled him to create artwork that could be utilized in a simple, yet effective loopable sequence. John conveyed the type of scenes and action he would like to take place in the animation to Doug, who in turn would create the drawings. After Doug completed the artwork, John decided how to make the most action out of the few drawings created for each simple scene or sequence. After shooting and animating the art, John had live action backgrounds such as clouds, smoke etc. composited into the animated footage. The live action footage was tinted in colors that John felt would add to the surrealistic feel of the piece. John has a treatment which develops the personality of the series and characters such as the pumpkins John has adapted to Punkins'(for obvious reasons). John assures that the series is not kiddie oriented and not for Saturday morning. He is a big fan of sick & twisted cartoons like "Lupo the Butcher" and intends to keep it in that vein. He has titled the series "MISFITS RE-ANIMATED". It will of course be VERY driven by the music of the MISFITS. The trailer is merely the breaking ground for the series and is in no way a completely developed representation of what the series itself will have to offer. The soundtrack for the trailer is an early instrumental version of "Mars Attacks". This version was recorded in June of 1996 after the European tour. Currently unreleased, it is possible this version of the track may surface on a future release from the Misfits. A sneak preview of the series trailer was recently aired on MTV's 120 minutes. -The Bride of Frankenstein Intro Version: The Bride of Frankenstein intro to the Bones video was not aired on MTV as Geffen records is not interested in soliciting the video with the intro. Only Non-Homogenized Prod. Ltd. and the Misfits have been distributing the intro version. Although, Non-Homogenzied did supply the intro version to MTV we are unfortunately vetoed by any Geffen corporate decisions. If you have a copy of the Intro version it's rare. (so we are lucky boys Mark) -Bones video: different version or mix of the song? - We had a couple of people asking about this: (to tell you the truth we are very impressed by those who noticed!) It isn't a different version or mix, it's remastered. When John received a DAT(Digital Audio Tape) of the song Bones he noticed that the overall levels were blown out and distorted. He figured it must have been a hot or bad dub to DAT so he explained this to Geffen and requested another DAT. After one of the engineers at Geffen looked into it for him, he discovered that the CD itself was mastered hot,(meaning the overall levels were mastered too high creating distortion on the track and blurring out some of the subtleties in the song. By the time the recording goes down to CD its not as noticeable, but a DAT on a set of professional grade speakers all is revealed. So we had the track remastered to DAT from the recording studios master. When you watch the video the difference you notice is hearing the track at its most pristine, even more so than the CD. -Psycho Video: Finally, the video for The Abominable Dr. Phibes/American Psycho is still in post-production. A Halloween release for Phibes/Psycho is doubtful. More than likely it will be released sometime in November. Ill keep you posted.

Anybody else going to the Danzig show on Halloween, then topping that off with the Misfits in San Bernardino the very next night? That's exactly what I'm doing. Already had my tickets for a few weeks. Well, the Danzig show is sold out, as is the Misfits Hollywood Halloween show. So if you were planning on seeing either one on Halloween, think again. However, San Bernardino is only an hour southeast from LA, so come on over here for the Nov. 1st Misfits show. Be careful though. We have the highest crime and murder rate in the Country. That rate goes up around Halloween.... If you're going to either show, email me. Or if you need directions to this hell hole known as San Berdoo, drop me a line. ----- Mark K Lippold , email me. I got your email, but when I emailed back, no such name exsisted. Margaret, email me. I emailed you yesterday, but not sure if you got it. Happy Birthday!!! ----- If anyone's still reading this, here's some things to think about- How did Glenn do those deep, eerie voices in certain songs with both Misfits and Samhain? Namely "Bloodfeast" and "Halloween II." I was just curious how he went about recording 'em. Probably a simple answer nontheless. Does anyone else think Samhain's "Fist of Steel" sounds like the Misfits "Horror Hotel"? Background music, not vocals. Why do you still stay here even though you constantly bitch and moan? Some of these answers may be complex, some very simple. Email me, or post back on the Bible your thoughts. "There are far worse things awaiting man than death." -TiM ------------------------------ From: "Landon Jenkins" Subject: Newcomer Date: Fri, 24 Oct 1997 03:55:27 -0700 I have only been subscribed to the bible for about two weeks. I am not privileged enough to know any of the people associated with the MISFITS, Samhain, Danzig, UNDEAD, or any band for that matter. Nor do I have anything to sell or trade. I also take no pleasure in trashing other people's tastes. All I care about is how the music of these bands has affected me; and the reason why I subscribe to this bible is to communicate with others who share my interests and can give information about these great bands. I am interested in what draws the select few of us to this music. Here is my take of it: How the Gods Kill was the first Danzig album I heard when it was first released. I bought it because the cover looked cool. I immediately fell in love with it, and is still one of my favorite albums. I later bought the first two Danzig albums. Then, after investigating, I found out about Samhain and the MISFITS, so I bought many of those (however I still can't get ahold of Final Descent). To me, anything Glenn has been involved in has been like an addiction. Yes, after listening a few times, I even love Blackacidevel! I consider Danzig's music to be that of rebellion. I'm not a rebel. I look like your average person (I don't even have a MISFITS t-shirt). His music is the only music I have found to be dark, yet beautiful - very emotional. Anyone can make music, but music with intense feeling, no matter what the lyrics are, is only made by a few artists I am aware of. Don't get me wrong. The band members are equally as vital to the music as Danzig is, and I don't think they get all the credit they deserve. They have helped make this music possible and I am grateful to all of them. If anyone shares these views, and those who don't, I would appreciate any feedback. Here's something interesting: I have met many people who are ex-husbands, ex-wives, ex-friends, and ex-employees, but never have I met an ex-fiend! We are a strong living group existing in a weak dying world!

Seemed like they had a pretty rough night. Doyle's guitar kept going out and some of the songs featured only bass/drums/vocals. At one point I even saw Doyle walk off to the side of the stage and throw his guitar down. Jerry mentioned something about being sorry for the delay and something about a problem with soundcheck. As far as I can remember these were the songs played: Dr. Phibes./American Psycho/Walk Among Us/Speak of the Devil/The Hunger/From Hell They Came/Static Age/TV Casualty/Crimson Ghost/Day of the Dead/Dig Up Her Bones/I Turned Into A Martian/Don't Open 'Til Doomsday/Last Caress/The Haunting/Shining/Hate the Living Love the Dead/Astro Zombies/London Dungeon/Mommy Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight?/Return of the Fly/We Are 138/Night of the Living Dead/Skulls/Devil's Whorehouse *The songs are NOT in order. Anyway, big dissapointment, 8 days before the Holiday, and they did not play Halloween. I think that they cut their set short because of the shitty sound. They didn't do any encores, and when they left the stage, CHUD remained behind his kit. Someone came out, said something to him, and he put on his jacket, waved, and left. They seemed pissed during the whole show anyway. Maybe they only had a really short time slot? It was SUPPOSED to be co-headlining yet GWAR certainly played a lot longer. I hope they come back again soon on their own. One question I do have is: Do the Misfits pick their own music to play over the PA while they are setting up? If they do pick it, then it's very interesting to note that they played 7th House, Sacrifice, and See All You Were off of Danzig 5. I never expected to hear Danzig at a Misfits show. I bet you'd never hear the Misfits at a Danzig show. ...Marino "A river of holy water wouldn't stop me."

I heard He kept their skulls -and their blood. ------------- This is a true story. Glenn killed them. But you made a mistake, he did not keep their blood, him and Eerie drank it later that night. Years later Chuck Biscuits found out about this incident so that is why he left Danzig. Glenn was arrested and went to trial, but the judge let him off. He also put a ban on any publication of this story and sealed the records. People could not figure out why the judge let Glenn Danzig off for murder. I believe his name was Judge Benjamin Anzelone. Could this be Glenn's mysterious secret? Could this be why he does not want to reveal his true last name. I think it is because the Judge was his FATHER!!!

Wouldn't it be nice to have the real truth. I don't buy either story, but at the same time some of it makes sense. We all know Glenn's real name was Anzalone (maybe at one point in his family history it was Danzig), but his little lie makes for a less believable story in the long run. Parts of Jerry's story sound like he's too nice, at least Glenn admits some of his faults. Glenn seems to be more consistent throughout interviews than Jerry, I just wish we could find out the truth.

Also, he puts out a newsletter disguised as a comic (Satanika) to get new recruits for his Evil Army. I KNOW that cause my Mom said so. He HAS to be Nosferatu, because Tipper Gore said so.

MISFITS American Psycho (1997) Geffen GED 24939 Ahh...who amongst the fiends and ghouls of punk music does not like the legendary Misfits? Even having split years ago, their revered music lives on in the hearts (and CD players) of countless punk fans. Like they say, the spirit of demons, ghosts and aliens never dies. That probably brought about the rebirth of the Misfits (rejoice everyone!) offering with them, an entirely new conjuration (about time too! I'm awfully sick of the same old compilations!). It's relieving to hear that Misfits have kept most of their original sound intact. With yesterday's melodies and today's production, this disc is set for the kill. Opening with the doomsday anthem, "Abominable Dr. Phibes", the mood is set for the arrival of Misfit's first song, "American Pyscho". Yes, the familiar, carefree ravings of the band rang out loud and clear. Michale Graves, successor of former Misfits vocalist, Glenn Danzig, carried his role well. I am convinced. Misfits stalks the earth once more and is here to stay. With sixteen fiendish songs (excluding the intro), it is easy to wallow in the exuberant tunes of "Speak of the Devil", "From Hell They Came", "Dig Up Her Bones", "Resurrection" and hordes of others. Even if you aren't a fan of punk music, this release is really worth the buck, and who knows? It might even do some converting. Its simple, yet amazingly sincere brand of music contains innumerable sing-alongs whose appeal won me over almost instantly. Needless to say this release is absolutely essential for the blood-thirsty punk fan (save your money on corpse paint and buy this disc!).

Heres what I got: First band, Crisis...female death metal...yawn...Highlight: The singer said how she thought all the guys flipping her off REALLY just wanted to be in the band, and that was their way of showing such jealously. ha. Mephaskafafuckalees: A ska band that played for way to long...ug. The Misfits: Well let me first say that this one was quite a disappointment. Ok, ok...FINE, Joey Ramone came out. Yeah, they played three Ramones covers and "1969". That was cool. But why, oh why, was the set so friggen short. Let me see, no "Halloween" (tho, it WAS a "Halloween-esque show"), no "Horror Buisness", no "Night of the Living Dead" (fuck, man, this makes a FOURTH goddamn show of being totally ignored), NOTHING off of "Earth AD". Yawn. Believe it or not, kiddies, but The Misfits OPENED for Gwar. The dramaticly short set says it all. Oh yeah, the band has a new backdrop behind the drum kit. Now its the poster from American Psycho with a blue backround (as opposed to it being the wall of the dungeon, or where ever the Crimson Ghost is walking). More about Joey Ramone: Well, first off the run down was "Glad to see you go", "Here today, Gone tommorow", "1969", and "BlitzKrieg Bop". Apparently, Joey said how he wouldnt go on if Marky was there. Classic moment: Joeys face as the great Marky Ramone took Chuds kit for "BlitzKrieg Bop". Funniest thing Ive seen in a while. What the fuck is Bobby Steele doing at a Misfits show!!?? : ) Yeah, Mr. Steele was there handing out UNDEAD propaganda for the Nov. 14 show at CBGBs. Pretty cool. Talked to him for a while, and he signed my Undead flyer with a pencil (thanxx, you rock Bob!!!). Also, met up with Emily, Leah, and Jaid. Damn cool. After months of seemingly endless emails its nice to finally meet them!! Jaid even gave me a big old hug : ) I cant believe she even remembered me, its been over a year since Ive talked to her. Oh yeah, Emily...I left after the show, my amigo Steve fell on his head and felt pretty sick so he didnt want to stick around. Chud said you were getting gas or something (where, I have no friggen idea, but hey), and he didnt really know where youd be when you got back. What else...A skary gay guy came on to me. He offered me his watch to "spend time with me", and he kept coming up to me periodicly saying 'hi' and hitting me on the shoulder and stuff. (no Bobby, damn it, Im not going to let him buy me a drink!). Also, some girl had her arm around my side for most of The Misfits encore after I helped her up and pushed some guy off her. Guess Im some kind of Misfits show stud, or something. GWAR: Over hyped. My first GWAR show and quite a dissapointment. I actually got a GWAR shirt beforehand, and wanted to return it after the show. Ugg. Not enough theatrics, to much boring shit. The best part was with Sexy actually turning out to be Techno. ("Damn it, Sexy, why the hell did you dress up as Techno Destructo...now I have to kill you"). Most of the show they were talking to some toilet...yawn. Speaking of which, I actually ~yawned~ in the GWAR pit. Yeah, I was pretty bored. Over all, a decent show at best. I had more fun walking around mingling (SP??). Anyone tape it, might as well let me know. dave ------------------------------ From: "Jeremy Kill" Subject: Samhain/Danzig sighting Date: Sat, 25 Oct 1997 15:59:25 -0500 I saw the demon-gargoyle statue in the picture that is inside Samhain's Final Descent cd (the one where Glenn is kind of lurching over) on MTV's "The Real World".

I recently asked my father to bring me back a CD while he was in Japan. I gave him a list of 5-6 bands that I found out about on the web. My top priority was to get a Balzac CD, but they didnt knew them in Tower rec in Tokyo, so he bought me a band called COCOBAT. I still have to get my CD, but from what I have heard, they are a hardcore-metal band. They have a remix album that make them sound like a industrial band, I think its tat one I'm getting. Anyway, I was reading about them, and I found out that their latest CD came out in a LIMITED Edition with a Bonus 5 track EP and on that EP, the track 4 is: Die Die My Darling - We Bite. Anyone knows about those cover songs? Also, if someone can get me CDs or 7inches by the Balzac, e-mail me at: ratmonkey@mindless.com thanks!

"Fiendz" from jersey-- the pals of Bobby we all know and love. Incidentally Wact is their best record "More Fiends" from texas or california (one of the two) pretty hokey long hair college rock post punk. John Doe guested on this record if I remember right "More Fiends" another band that just recently came out. someone was promoting them on the internet and i thought it was the old guys but noooo... and... there was a band called "The Fiends" too if I remmber.

I watched the first show (Live 10/31/81 on Halloween in Bethlehem, PA) and the quality was decent, for an old original Misfits show. The other videos (Braineaters promo, Why Be Something That Your Not, Live Goleta Center CA 1983, Flipside cable and Bookies, Detroit) had quality that was good and bad - I didn't actually watch all of it. Anyway, I'd love to trade this tape (at least 120 minutes total) for some recent shows with Michael Graves. I could also trade for a tape of other old shows that I don't have, or for some Samhain video. If anyone is really interested, but has no trade, $12.00 post paid is cool too.

Well first thing before we get to The Halloween Horror Trivia Contest I have an apology to make. This is to the members of the Bible, I would like to apologize for this stupidy and waste of bible space for the past couple issues. I will not apologize to Persephone, she does not deserve one, being that she lied to all of you since the posts and private e-mail she had on the bible were out of context to make me look like some beastly bitch, plus the threats made to me do not warrant what she wants. I have never claimed or wanted to be queen of anything with the bible. I have never found a need to boast about my collection, and when i have posted what i have paid for pieces in my collection was to make all of you realize that collecting original Misfits, and Samhain records can be done and not spending hundreds of dollars on a single piece. It was even mentioned to me by someone else that I sound like I'm talking down to others, well if I am, I'm sorry. I am the product of two NYers who make me look like a sweetheart.

I remember this, because there was a funny story attached to it. Back in those days, Canadian customs was afraid bands would try to sell their equipment before leaving the country, so to avoid that, they'd make you put a deposit down to cover the taxes, or whatever. If you didn't return with the same stuff - you lost your deposit. Well, THE MISFITS didn't know this, and as they were showing customs the equipment - they started bragging about how valuable the shit was - even though most of it was kinda cheap junk at the time. Then customs hit them with the deposit ! >Date: Fri, 24 Oct 1997 23:20:07 -0500 >From: the pod inside >Subject: A Post So Amazing, You Won't Believe Your Thighs This was, by far, the funniest post I've ever seen on this bible. >Subject: Misfits/GWAR show in NY [review-esque material] >From: davenaked@juno.com (dave naked) >Date: Sat, 25 Oct 1997 15:18:01 EDT >Joey said how he wouldnt go on if Marky was there.

What's all the fuss ? First off, I don't really care for this song - I wish they'd done DOOMSDAY instead. This one reminds me more of IRON MAIDEN than THE MISFITS for some reason. The animation looked really cool, however brief it was. The video, overall, was pretty good. I thought the cheesy gravestones were pretty funny - as well as the animated skeleton arm pointing toward the FIEND CLUB. Some of the cuts were a bit too fast to take in, but I think it was a great effort. Just don't take the damn thing so seriously. It was fun. Some of the posing was dorky, but other times, it worked out great. I really can't see why MTV doesn't show it more often. It's a lot better than the other shit they run. Maybe they're just holding out for THE UNDEAD's video . . . Don't hold your breath guys. ------------------------------ From: Zephyrous Oxide Date: Mon, 27 Oct 1997 09:17:47 -0500 (EST) Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #397 First, does anyone have any information on the Vile Tones?

That IS a second press: Pressing: 1st: 50000 copies Comes with Fiend Club badge, special CD case for STATIC AGE album, and 3 separate slim cases for the remaining 3 CDs. Besides the large detail sticker on the plastic wrap, first pressings also include a smaller sticker: "Limited first pressing containing the special edition package of the Static Age album available only in this box. (see back sticker for more information)" 2nd: Still in press. These copies lack the small first pressing sticker on the front and do not come with the Fiend Club badge or the special STATIC AGE case.

But seriously, you guys are looking into this way to deep ... he listens to one and only one CD in his car when he drives? A CD that is only 20 minutes long? What kind of tires does he use? Goodyear? Firestone? Michelin? Pirelli? How about what kind of oil, Mobil 1 or Castrol Syntex synthetic, or does he use Quaker State? Maybe Pennzoil? Who is Glenn's favorite NASCAR driver? Whats the fastest quarter mile Glenn ever ran (in his car)? There was an article in which he desribes Blackassholedevil blowing out the speakers in his car, so, according to Glenn, its true.

I went to see the Misfits last night in St. Louis and it was the best show I have seen of them so far. A band called Ghoul 5 played and then a band called Soak played. They were ok but nothing special. Then the Misfits came out. It was cool to see them this close to Halloween. They did the usual opening with Phibes and American Psycho. Then a few more songs off of AP and then they played a wide variety of tunes I haven't seen them sing live before. They did return of the fly, ghouls night out, death comes ripping, angelfuck, bloodfeast, and horror hotel among other songs. It was a nice mix to say the least. They played for a while too or at least it seemed like forever. They had a kid come on stage for skulls to sing and another kid came on for don't open til dooms day but the kid took the mic and ws singing and came by me to sing with the crowd and some asshole bouncer pushed him off after Jerry pulled the kid up there. Oh well. Afterwards they were all signing stuff. Jerry was out in the crowd and the other guys were on the side of the stage. I had an unused ticket since one of my buddies couldn't go and i got that all signed by the Misfts so i need to go get a frame. ANyway a great show as usual and the guys were all very nice to everyone and if they read this by some chance, thanks guys for a great show and i wish i could go to chicago to see SOIA too but I can't. sorry for the long post folks. also does anyone have any bootlegs they can tape for me????

This is why. Metal Maniacs magazine says that Lazie isn't in Danzig now, he's playing with Max Cavalera (ex-singer for Sepultura). Sugartooth has a new album but I don't know if Joey Castillo is on it. Prong is touring again with Tommy Victor. So if anyone is in the band it might be Joey Castillo but I guess we'll just have to wait until someone goes to the Halloween show. If I'm wrong blame the magazines because thats where I got my info!!! ------------------------------ From: "Nick Petitti" Subject: Graves vocals Date: Mon, 27 Oct 1997 12:24:04 PST they >still haven't caught on to the fact that you can't hear graves. I have seen the Misfits three times thus far. The first two I couldn't hear a thing Graves was singing, I just went by the music and by the crowd, but this July I caught them at Bogarts in Cincinatti, and I was able to hear his vocals incredibly well. Maybe it was the venue, but I was glad to hear his vocals for the first time live. Perhaps this is an isolated incident, but I would hope not. After the Cincinatti show I was relieved that they had realized their error with the vocals.

For anyone interested, it will be a straight to video release on 01/20/98, and Christopher Walken will be the star. Danzig will play the Dark Angel, and he described his role as more fighting than talking. It's the same kind of plot as Prophecy, Archangel Gabriel(C. Walken) tries to destroy the human race.

If they do pick it, then it's very interesting to >note that they played 7th House, Sacrifice, and See All You Were off >of Danzig 5. I doubt the Misfits would pick Danzig to play, so I doubt they pick it... maybe this accounts for their performance being off. It'd certainly throw me for a loop if I was Jerry or Doyle and I heard Glenn's music while setting up. Or maybe something more insidious... like a curse courtesy of the man himself... Just idle speculation, mind you. By the way, does anybody know if Danzig got the Wolverine part or if he'll be in The Crow III? >I KNOW it was Danzig, because the media says he's satanic, and >the media is ALWAYS your best bet for quality information. Also, he puts >out a newsletter disguised as a comic (Satanika) to get new recruits for >his Evil Army. I KNOW that cause my Mom said so. He HAS to be Nosferatu, >because Tipper Gore said so. There's ALSO the fact that the Christians >told me that he was Beelzebub. I gotta believe 'em, right? Otherwise I >might be banished to the Underworld with all the sinners. Loved the post. You forgot to mention the obvious upside to being banished to the Underworld, however - hanging around with Danzig! Just tell him you loved 5, and I'm sure he and his dark legions will make your eternity an enjoyable one. I was going to end this with a psychoanalysis of Danzig, but I'm not a psychiatrist - although that doesn't seem to be stopping anyone else. Also, anything I decided about Danzig's personality would be bound to be incorrect, simply because of a lack of personal interaction with the subject. Sure, you could suck some stuff out of the songs, but you also have to take into account the fact that sometimes songs are written from the viewpoint of an individual besides the songwriter. 'Mommy, Can I Go Out And Kill Tonight?' could be how Danzig felt, or could be from the viewpoint of someone besides Danzig, which is more likely. The song seems to me to have a narrative quality, and like many of Danzig's songs, particularly the ones he wrote during his membership in the Misfits, seems to be a horror story in a song, about a fictional character. So look at it from all angles.

Okay, before I get nasty e-mail from any fiends who have used this company, please let me explain my situation and the reason why I'm venting it on the Misfits Bible!! Anyway, I found a ad in Goldmine Issue #451 on page 87. It lists they have the Misfits "Dig Up Her Bones" Promo CD for $5.00. So, I was pretty jacked to say the least. Anyway, on Oct. 27 I sent a email to them seeing if they still had it in stock ... they said they did and that they would reserve it for me. Cool! I sent a check for $8.00 today (Oct. 28) and sent an email to them stating I sent the payment. A few hours later, I get an email stating they do not have the Misfits "Dig Up Her Bones" Promo CD!! Needless to say, I'm pretty confused!! I sent another email asking what's up with the sitiuation, and they said : "We really don't know what happened". What the hell kind of response is that? So, I sent a check for something they said they had, but now don't!! I think the whole thing sucks!! Anyway, to get to the point of why I'm venting this on the Bible. If anyone reads this, and has a copy of the Misfits "Dig Up Her Bones" Promo CD that they would be willing to sell, it would be greatly appreiciated. I'm not saying don't use Brouhaha Music Marketing, all I know is I'll deal with the Fiends first, cause if you can't trust a fellow Fiend, who can you trust. Anyway, have a Happy Halloween Fiends!

Kill. OK enough already. Let's get something straight. Just because something has "THX 1138" in it, doesn't make it a Misfits sighting!! (As if we gave a rat's ass in the first place about Misfits sightings...) It's a GEORGE LUCAS sighting. Yes, that's right. "THX 1138" was George Lucas's student film which he later made into a feature film starring Robert DuVall. Ever since then he's been dropping references to that movie into his films... it's in "Star Wars", I think it's on a license plate in "American Grafitti", etc. The game "Maniac Mansion"? I'm taking a wild stab here, could it be a LucasArts game? Give it a rest, already. 138 == Misfits. THX-1138 == George Lucas. No relation. I don't care that "We Are 138" was inspired by "THX 1138". It just ain't close enough. And NO Glenn Danzig didn't kill anybody!! What are you guys, idiots? But he hurt a guy real bad at one show in San Francisco... I know the guy personally and he still has this big fucking apple-bite mark taken out of his forehead. The plastic surgeons wanted to fill it in with cartiledge and stuff but the guy thought it looked cool and it had a cool story behind it, so he left it the way it was. It was a way close call though, Glenn probably would have killed the guy except before he could finish the job Doyle smashed Glenn over the head with his guitar, knocking him out.

I listened (and taped) their sound check before the col springs show through the back door. the bar they played was very small, so it was easy to hear it all. they played both "scream" and "I got a right", along with vampira, NOTLD, DUHB, and some others. before writing me for a copy of the tape, the tape got destroyed. sorry to get your hopes up. I thought "I got a right" was a new song till the Iggy tribute came out. I'm not real cultured not that anyone cares, but I missed them actually playing. Ticket said show started at 7, and only Piston and Misfits were supposed to play, but another band opened that sucked, and they didn't come on till 9. seeing as I have a curfew, I had to leave just before the misfits came on. pretty awesome Isn't anyone suspicious that it seems all of Danzig's band is doing something else and he's playing in the same town as the Misfits on Halloween? Just seems too coincidental to me. just kidding, I think it's just ironic. Lastly, if anybody has heard of the misfits getting in trouble in denver in august, or have heard they are looking for someone who was there, I was there when it all happened and can tell the real story. later kyle ps, gay sighting: Mark on Home Improvement had the new Danzig shirt on last night. ------------------------------ From: "CHARLIE BROWN" Subject: THEBROWNS Date: Wed, 29 Oct 1997 10:16:14 PST FIENDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That movie rules. If any one hasn't seen it, they should go get it. It's takes place in a futuristic world (in the year 2000,wow) and there is a trans-continental race in which you score points by running people over. It's a total riot and one of the funniest movies ever (of-course it's not a comedy, it's the cheesiness and the fact that they run people of thats funny). The "hero" and number one driver's name is called Frankenstein. These could be the lyrics to the song "Death Race 2000" "Look out, cuz Frankie's gonna run you over, Woa oah!

For my part, I tend to believe Glenn's side of the story that he disbanded the Misfits, if only because he is obviously the one who emerged in the stronger position afterwards (owning the rights -- and continuing to release albums). But on the other hand, I don't think Jerry is really "lying" either. > Interpret it how you wish, but let me promise you that he had no intention > of insulting your intelligence. It's just an interesting point. You're > obviously reaching for every chance to slam this guy. As are many others. I think Jerry has said many stupid things. I think that Jerry is not half the songwriter Glenn is on his worst day. But I also think that Jerry is basically a sincere guy -- even if a bit deluded sometimes (then again, I'm not a former or current band member, so what do I know about what is really going on?). Sometimes he goes out of his way (or seems to) to slag Bobby and Glenn -- whereas Bobby only makes responses to direct comments of Jerry's; and Glenn generally only insults (or even mentions) the Misfits when he is asked directly about them (and sometimes he doesn't comment at all). I can sort of see why some people call Jerry a used car salesman -- but I think all of these theories about how he just restarted the band to hoard money for his father, and how he really doesn't care about the fans, blah blah -- that's all just completely ridiculous. If he really *only* wanted to make money, he could afford to do a lot LESS in terms of signing autographs and giving away free stuff. > This is an interesting point... but he might not be lying. He has stated > before that he's part German, and perhaps he is. Perhaps there's a member > of his family somewhere whose last name is Danzig. For all we know, it > could be his mother's maiden name. He never directly says that Danzig > was always his last name. It is possible that he has family named "Danzig" -- but it's far more likely that he's just lying to protect his own privacy. Think about it -- there have "rumours" going around that Danzig isn't his name, but how many people reading SECONDS have actually seen his highschool photo? So he probably figures he can just flat-out refute the rumour, and 99% of the people will shut up about it. The 1000 or 2000 or whatever number of people now read the Bible, and thus know the truth, still make up only a minute percentage of worldwide Danzig, Misfits, and Samhain fans. In all likelihood, if his mother's maiden name was "Danzig" then Jerry or someone might have known this, but Jerry only says that Glenn chose the name "for some evil associated with it" or because it sounded cool or whatever.

This How you came to this conclusion I have no idea. Far from "believing he is" one of these people, Glenn consistently downplays the influences that Elvis and Morrison had on him -- He claims that he only likes a few albums by each. I've never seen him in a Vegas suit on-stage. When asked if he idolized Morrison, he said something like, "I don't idolize an overweight alcoholic." As for the Wolverine thing, being short and growing sideburns does not mean you believe yourself to be a fictional character. What's more, Glenn once said that he'd rather play Lobo than Wolverine. > From: Hope Tornowske > thought that too, then they basically predicted me all too well).

At the time of the incident, Metallica just finished touring with Danzig, they looked up to Glenn, loved his music, and being that they hung out with Glenn alot, they grew on Glenn's side. That was almost ten years ago... I was talking to Hetfield & Hammett in Cincinnati last April about the Misfits. The first words out of Hetfield's mouth was "I was really surprised with the new Misfits. It reminds me a lot of the early 'Fits which I love. It makes you think if Glenn really had EVERYTHING to do with it. Or...they could've copied the formula, which is just fine!" Hammett was also giving good words about American Psycho. I made sure to ask what they thought of Danzig 5...both of which (keep in mind they LOVE(d) Danzig) hated it. I think it was the '94 tour that really opened their eyes toward Glenn and the new 'Fits opened up new respect for Jerry & Doyle. Personally, I would've much rather seen the 'Fits tour with Metallica than Megadeth. Metallica would've made sure that they would've got all that they wanted. Hell...co-headlining...Misfits with pyros...shit. I think that it would be pretty amazing. I don't see it happening and I'm not going to hold my breath. And alternashit...give the new record a listen (avail. 11/18)...some HEAVY sounds on there.

And besides, it didn't hurt anything, since the answers were _already_ posted along with the answers Persephone provided. So no adverse consequences befell the contest itself. All it comes down to is this: someone overlooked the instructions, and made a harmless mistake. Is that really such a problem? Whose anal-retentive Weltanschauung is going to crumble to ashes because of it? No one's. Let's just get on with more productive things than worrying about who broke what rule and effected some harmless end... In other news, is Danzig really playing at the Whiskey on Halloween, or is this just another rumor, a la the Cramps show? The LA WEEKLY lists "Blackacidevil" as the band for that night. Why would they list it that way? Does anyone have tickets, or know anything more conclusively? Just curious...

I just got into The Misfits Bible recently. I love the Misfits! I have saw and met them twice -- they are so nice! I am going to see them again in January (Atlanta, GA) The first show I saw, Graves beat the shit out of a guy in the audience! It was crazy! To comment on Initium's post in #389: Some of my friends stayed after one show and smoked with Michael Graves (unfortunately I had already left after talking to each Misfit twice and getting them to sign everything but my bare ass!) So, yeah, at least we know Graves smoke huh? I also want to ask permission to link this and Misfits Central to my hp. I already have the Misfits Fiend Club address and a slight hint, with another "punk band" page with a lot of info on every punk band anybody could think of! I enjoy the info I get on the Misfits from the Bible, but everybody needs to really get over this "Graves vs. Danzig" thing. Glenn is not part of the band anymore. Yeah, he was, and still is a great singer, songwriter, etc... But, we have to acknowledge The Misfits for who they are now and if you ask me I think Graves was a pretty damn great replacement! He has a great attitude and energy out-of-this-world! THE MISFITS NEVER DIE! ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 21 Oct 1997 19:00:26 -0700 From: Inzo Subject: It's been a while..... First off let me try to correct somethings I remember..... The Misfits song Mars Attacks follows the trading cards. The movie would have been better if it followed the rare trading cards from 1965. The martians invade the earth and pretty much destroy everything, then the army goes to mars and blows them up. I have a reproduction of the trading cards. The cards are very gorey, it's no wonder they were immediatly taken off the market. I also think the Misfits song would have fit perfectly in the movie during the credits. I have said this before. The instrumental used during the Misfits animation on MTV was not Attitude, it was Mars Attacks. 138, San Fransisco's number 1 Misfits Samhain Danzig tribute band are breaking up. If you live nearby and can get us a show, let us know at http://www.138.org We may be able to play a show or two before we turn into pumpkins. I see that Glenn Danzig will be at an Oakland Comic book convention Nov. 1st and 2nd. I also see that the Misfits will be playing San Fransico Nov. 1st and still in the area on the 2nd.....wonder if paths will be crossed. The Psychoanalysis of Uncle Glenn. That guy had it pretty much all right except he left one thing out, He should take in this data and re-analize. Jerry has said that back in the old days "Glenn was like a big brother to me" Also, I noticed that in the box set book, in a 1978 band photo, Glenn has a bare chest of hair, then in the Initium book There is a picture of Glenn at the Unholy Passion session and he has a full chest of hair. In 1978 he was like 22, Explain his late growth of hair. I have heard no other name, Glenn's real last name is Anzalone. No Anzelone, Anzilone, or Analzone. And it is Italian so it is pernounced like Bologne. I am in the market for some Danzig stuff. CAN SOMEONE MAKE ME A NICE DUB OF ALL DANZIG VIDEOS OFF OF DANZIG, 3, 4 and 5??? That would be... How the Gods Kill Dirty Black Summer Mother 93' Cantspeak I don't mind the pain Until you call on the dark Sacrifice Serpentia??? Only nice stereo copies and I will pay for the GOOD tape you use and shipping. Also in Mint to Near Mint condition I would like on LP!

I suppose that will be all for now. ------------------------------ From: "Jeremy Kill" Subject: Glenn's senior high-school pic.... Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 01:25:44 -0500 Have any of you seen Glenn "Danzig's" high-school pic? It's a gas. Outrageous I tell you! I mean in between that time to '88 or so it appears that he looked nothing like that picture, but now he looks almost EXACTLY like that picture again, minus the fat! Weird. No devilock (I know, that didn't come until 78-79 or so), but he does sport a mop that is reminiscent of Chewbacca. Oh, and now he has a new nose, too-I think. Anybody know if those were the Talus days? Hey Dungeonmaster, where would I need to go to on your website to read that Steve Zing interview? ------------------------------ From: "Jeremy Kill" Subject: Cough/Cool 7" Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 01:27:44 -0500 Hey, I e-mailed the guy who is selling those things for $2.00 and he never sent me a response. Is this a hoax? ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 05:48:45 -0400 (EDT) From: Necro138@aol.com Subject: Response too Ghoulfiend This is a response to: GhoulFiend@aol.com Subject: A FEW COMMENTS: You are someone who tries to associate yourself with the Misfits, and you must think all the fiends are pretty stupid. You said you "check in" once in a while to see whats going on with the bible? And ask fiends to call magazines, and visit your website, to help you peddle your crap. You must think that you've got a ready made audience by trying to appeal to people on the bible, or in the fiend club, by trying to pawn yourself off as the "Queen of the Fiends" Just because you wear your hair in a devilock, and pose for some cheap pictures, dosen't make you some beloved Misfits figure. "Mistress to the HorrorKid"? (or anyone else that will give me attention!) > I think Doug Evil does a great job with Squirt and is only expressing >his love for The Misfits. Plus, he gets to promote Squirt in exchange for >all the help he's given the band with the Fiend Club. All his heart and soul >goes into that zine so give the fiend a break! Buy Squirt #2! Bleeder's Diegest sux! and so does Squirt! The ONLY reason your asking fiends to buy Squirt#2 is because you are in it! Hellen Blazes sux! What does that have to do with the Misfits? the editor should put less work into drawing bad cartoons and more work into writing about the Misfits. Plus, the guy isn't just promoting squirt. He is selling it. And it is just a lot of dumb crap. >"I rarely check the Bible", Yeah unless i have something i want to sell,or if i need a free ad for my website. >"Maybe the rules should be posted in every issue before the questions so the Bible doesn't become a social clique and anyone can play the game without confusion". Most of us already know the rules. I guess you wouldn't , because as you said you "rarely check the bible". ------------------------------ From: Dalkiel@webtv.net (David Jackson) Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 06:12:49 -0500 Subject: Anyone Taping Danzig 10/31/97 Is anyone out there gonna try and video or run a DAT t the upcoming Danzig show at The Whiskey 10/31/97 in Hollywood, CA ..

The e-mail address is MTVTOP10@AOL.com. -The cartoon: The Misfits animated series is a project that is in development with Non-Homogenized Productions Ltd. John, who is also an animator, took an interest in Doug Evil's caricatures, and taught Doug the basics of animation. This technique enabled him to create artwork that could be utilized in a simple, yet effective loopable sequence. John conveyed the type of scenes and action he would like to take place in the animation to Doug, who in turn would create the drawings. After Doug completed the artwork, John decided how to make the most action out of the few drawings created for each simple scene or sequence. After shooting and animating the art, John had live action backgrounds such as clouds, smoke etc. composited into the animated footage. The live action footage was tinted in colors that John felt would add to the surrealistic feel of the piece. John has a treatment which develops the personality of the series and characters such as the pumpkins John has adapted to Punkins'(for obvious reasons). John assures that the series is not kiddie oriented and not for Saturday morning. He is a big fan of sick & twisted cartoons like "Lupo the Butcher" and intends to keep it in that vein. He has titled the series "MISFITS RE-ANIMATED". It will of course be VERY driven by the music of the MISFITS. The trailer is merely the breaking ground for the series and is in no way a completely developed representation of what the series itself will have to offer. The soundtrack for the trailer is an early instrumental version of "Mars Attacks". This version was recorded in May of 1996 after the Misfits European tour. Currently unreleased, it is possible this version of the track may surface on a future release from the Misfits. A sneak preview of the series trailer was recently aired on MTV's 120 minutes. -The Bride of Frankenstein Intro Version: The Bride of Frankenstein intro to the Bones video was not aired on MTV as Geffen records is not interested in soliciting the video with the intro. Only Non-Homogenized Prod. Ltd. and the Misfits have been distributing the intro version. Although, Non-Homogenzied did supply the intro version to MTV we are unfortunately vetoed by any Geffen corporate decisions. If you have a copy of the Intro version its rare. -Bones video: different version or mix of the song? - We had a couple of people asking about this: (to tell you the truth we are very impressed by those who noticed!) It isnt a different version or mix, its remastered. When John received a DAT(Digital Audio Tape) of the song Bones he noticed that the overall levels were blown out and distorted. He figured it must have been a hot or bad dub to DAT so he explained this to Geffen and requested another DAT. After one of the engineers at Geffen looked into it for him, he discovered that the CD itself was mastered hot,(meaning the overall levels were mastered too high creating distortion on the track and blurring out some of the subtleties in the song. By the time the recording goes down to CD its not as noticeable, but a DAT on a set of professional grade speakers all is revealed. So we had the track remastered to DAT from the recording studios master. When you watch the video the difference you notice is hearing the track at its most pristine, even more so than the CD. -Psycho Video: Finally, the video for The Abominable Dr. Phibes/American Psycho is still in post-production. A Halloween release for Phibes/Psycho is doubtful. More than likely it will be released sometime in November. Well keep you posted. In the meantime, here are some jpegs, for Halloween. G.E.O.

Now you know why I rarely post anymore! Well, the black flag analogy is a bad one, because all of the singers were for the that band were the mouthpieces for Greg Ginn's songs. Sure they contributed, but Ginn was Black Flag. I used to think Rollins ruined that band, and I think it was just coincidence that it happened around the time he joined. I like Morris too, as well as Chavo and Dez, much better than Henry, but none of them really contributed much songwriting. If you listen too Everything Went Black, Damaged, Jealous Again EP or whatever, its all the same songs with different vocalists.

Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 19:09:55 -0400 Ok...first! The Steve Zing interview needs to be transcribed off of the video tape I made that night. This is obviously going to take a while, as it's about 45 minutes long. I'll post when it's done. Thanks to everyone who expressed interest in the interview. Next! Glenn, Glenn, Glenn.... Why must everyone try to analyze the man? I can appreciate the views expressed, but why not let that go...He is a very complex individual, and no one knows what goes on in his mind except him. The only people qualified to make assessments about him are those who are close to him. I don't even see the relevance here... So what if he was not in the best physical condition in high school? So what if he had cosmetic surgery? I don't feel that any of that matters. I must ask one question.. When you go to buy new music, do you check out the biographical info on the artist before you buy? If you read that the artist had surgery to correct an eye problem, would you say.. "oh my god...surgery!?!?!?! I can't buy this record since he isn't the same as the day he was born!!!"

Date: Wed, 22 Oct 1997 16:46:31 PDT Y'know, I subscribed to The Misfits Bible to read news on my favorite band and to get in touch with fellow fans. What I didn't subscribe to was to hear all you fucking babies whine on about 'how much the new Misfits suck' blah blah and all that other crap you snivel about. The Misfits Bible is a GREAT idea and I'm sick of you nitwits fucking it all up. Who the fuck cares who sings now? Glenn is gone: get over it. If you prefer him than just listen to the 'Fits old stuff and Danzig's new stuff. Don't come here and bitch. The name on the CD is The Misfits; deal with it. Oh yeah I forgot...138 sighting! In Star Wars: A New Hope, when the disguised Han and Luke bring Chewbacca to the Detention Block in the Death Star, the resident officer asks, 'Where are you taking this...thing?" To which Luke replies, "Prisoner transfer from cell block 1138." This is obviously a reference the the previously mentioned THX 1138, which was also a movie by George Lucas. -Johnny Atomic, Fiend For Hire ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 10 Dec 1996 19:30:21 -0800 From: Rabid Doctor Subject: Hellos I don't really have a Misfits web page.. it's just a page with a few Misfits links, but new to it is an interview I just recently conducted with Bobby Steele!!

Even though the did everything they could to get all the old metalheads riled up to no avail they didn't go oh st Louie sucks. They came and hung out with all us fans and Jerry Only came up and gave my brother (a quadripalegic) a hug. Jerry didn't have to he had no idea who my bro was but he did it regardless. Then they signed all everyone's shit and did about five last calls for autographs before they went to the showers and CHUD came and hung out for about a half hour just talking with everyone. I first heard the Misfits thru my older bro when I was in 3rd grade with Glenn singing and i think the "new" Misfits are still just as good as old. nothing lasts forever and people mature which would account for their slightly different sound on AP. So waht I am saying if you were wondering is to me they are just as good as ever and super nice. They don't seem to me to be in it for the money at all.

You sound like a nice intelligent guy, and I'd probably e-mail you directly if I had my own computer, but I don't, so I can't get any replies. I got the Sloppy Seconds single, and Live Slayer, and enjoyed both. I'm a little pissed that the CD version of Live Slayer doesn't have Rattfink on it, though. I've never seen the vinyl. Plus it took me three or four years to notice the picture of Glenn on the cover. I liked it! Anyway, I have a question about that band the Fiendz. Did they put out a CD a while back? I saw a CD with a Vampira-type on the cover and a song called Zombie-a-go-go or something like that. I would've bought it on that basis alone, because it sounds like something a Misfits fan would like. It was in the Get-Rid-of-the-Fucking-Thing-Now bin in a store priced at $1.00. I listened to it there at the store, and put it back. It sucked hard. I didn't even want to pay a dollar for it. I bought Sweet-tarts instead. Is this the same band? The Collector's Guide to Heavy Metal has listings for all the Danzig albums plus Black Aria. The guy reviewing it hated the first couple, liked the next two, giving IV a 10 out of 10, which is classic classic. Blackaciddevil got a 0, which I thought was a little harsh. I kinda liked it, though Danzig should not obscure his voice. Plus, I was wondering, how do Jerry's kids like the band? Does anybody know? I would assume he feels slightly embarrassed as a parent to play the older stuff because of the cursing, so he cleaned up the lyrics for AP. Am I right about that? ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 23 Oct 1997 00:00:11 -0400 (EDT) From: GhoulFiend@aol.com Subject: Catfight!!!!

All in all I do look forward to it and do get excited when it comes. The only thing i think is kinda honky about it is the Helen Blazes character. Honestly, when i first saw her character i was quite surprised that the misfits would put an obvious big breasted female character to atract readers on the cover, and now she writes columns too?! Come on, that's really lame. Other than her i really like it. I did write to them and answered the questionaire which i think everyone should do so they can make it better. Let voice be heard you know, it's for us, so lets help the makers of it out and let them know what we think. Anyways, thats my take. Mark: Is their going to be anything special for the Halloween issue of the bible? There should atleast be something different. If anyone has a copy of the Dig Up Her Bones blue 7" that they're willing to part with, let me know. I'd be willing to trade and/or buy it at a reasonable price. -Nick TS ------------------------------ From: "Stephen A Perry (Weird Al)" Subject: Misfits, Old and New... Date: Thu, 23 Oct 1997 00:51:33 -0400 When I first got into the Misfits (August this year), I had never heard the old stuff. I only heard the new stuff. I recently got the box set so I could get into the older music. I like the old music, as well as the new. Since the new album is only about 40 minutes long, it's so easy to run through the whole thing while driving across town or to work. So, in that aspect, it doesn't feel like a big enough accomplishment. I think it's too short. BUT, this album was meant as a new beginning for the new Misfits. I think as the band grows, the music will speak for itsself. People say the new Misfits did a total reversal with Teenagers from Mars/I turned into a Martian as compared to Mars Attacks. I think people are missing the point. It's still good music. The new Misfits actually plays the old songs better than the old Misfits. The drummer is a lot better in the new band. Granted, Glenn has an awesome voice when he wants to sing, but I think Michale is going to do just as well, given the chance. People bicker on here about this and that. Fans want things the way they used to be. There's always going to be someone who doesn't like this or that. I can honestly say I have a positive attitude about the new Misfits, because it's a new start for a band that otherwise wouldn't exist today. I'm just grateful that they are back together, making new music. After all, that's what any band exists for...to play, to create, etc. I'm on the Bible to talk with other fans and hear about experiences, not to hear nitpicking about things that will never matter, even if argued about for eternity. There's a saying I made up during my previous relationship with a girlfriend. I think it sums up the whole idea I want to get across..."You're right, I'm wrong. There's nothing more to argue about. It's over."

Unless there is an alternate version of the Box Set, I think somebody screwed you, big time, and hard up the ass. The best thing to do is to open it up at the record store first (if they let you).

John, who is also an animator, took an interest in Doug Evil's caricatures, and taught Doug the basics of animation. This technique enabled him to create artwork that could be utilized in a simple, yet effective loopable sequence. John conveyed the type of scenes and action he would like to take place in the animation to Doug, who in turn would create the drawings. After Doug completed the artwork, John decided how to make the most action out of the few drawings created for each simple scene or sequence. After shooting and animating the art, John had live action backgrounds such as clouds, smoke etc. composited into the animated footage. The live action footage was tinted in colors that John felt would add to the surrealistic feel of the piece. John has a treatment which develops the personality of the series and characters such as the pumpkins John has adapted to Punkins'(for obvious reasons). John assures that the series is not kiddie oriented and not for Saturday morning. He is a big fan of sick & twisted cartoons like "Lupo the Butcher" and intends to keep it in that vein. He has titled the series "MISFITS RE-ANIMATED". It will of course be VERY driven by the music of the MISFITS. The trailer is merely the breaking ground for the series and is in no way a completely developed representation of what the series itself will have to offer. The soundtrack for the trailer is an early instrumental version of "Mars Attacks". This version was recorded in June of 1996 after the European tour. Currently unreleased, it is possible this version of the track may surface on a future release from the Misfits. A sneak preview of the series trailer was recently aired on MTV's 120 minutes. -The Bride of Frankenstein Intro Version: The Bride of Frankenstein intro to the Bones video was not aired on MTV as Geffen records is not interested in soliciting the video with the intro. Only Non-Homogenized Prod. Ltd. and the Misfits have been distributing the intro version. Although, Non-Homogenzied did supply the intro version to MTV we are unfortunately vetoed by any Geffen corporate decisions. If you have a copy of the Intro version it's rare. (so we are lucky boys Mark) -Bones video: different version or mix of the song? - We had a couple of people asking about this: (to tell you the truth we are very impressed by those who noticed!) It isn't a different version or mix, it's remastered. When John received a DAT(Digital Audio Tape) of the song Bones he noticed that the overall levels were blown out and distorted. He figured it must have been a hot or bad dub to DAT so he explained this to Geffen and requested another DAT. After one of the engineers at Geffen looked into it for him, he discovered that the CD itself was mastered hot,(meaning the overall levels were mastered too high creating distortion on the track and blurring out some of the subtleties in the song. By the time the recording goes down to CD its not as noticeable, but a DAT on a set of professional grade speakers all is revealed. So we had the track remastered to DAT from the recording studios master. When you watch the video the difference you notice is hearing the track at its most pristine, even more so than the CD. -Psycho Video: Finally, the video for The Abominable Dr. Phibes/American Psycho is still in post-production.

However, San Bernardino is only an hour southeast from LA, so come on over here for the Nov. 1st Misfits show. Be careful though. We have the highest crime and murder rate in the Country. That rate goes up around Halloween.... If you're going to either show, email me. Or if you need directions to this hell hole known as San Berdoo, drop me a line. ----- Mark K Lippold , email me. I got your email, but when I emailed back, no such name exsisted. Margaret, email me. I emailed you yesterday, but not sure if you got it. Happy Birthday!!! ----- If anyone's still reading this, here's some things to think about- How did Glenn do those deep, eerie voices in certain songs with both Misfits and Samhain? Namely "Bloodfeast" and "Halloween II." I was just curious how he went about recording 'em. Probably a simple answer nontheless. Does anyone else think Samhain's "Fist of Steel" sounds like the Misfits "Horror Hotel"? Background music, not vocals. Why do you still stay here even though you constantly bitch and moan? Some of these answers may be complex, some very simple. Email me, or post back on the Bible your thoughts. "There are far worse things awaiting man than death." -TiM ------------------------------ From: "Landon Jenkins" Subject: Newcomer Date: Fri, 24 Oct 1997 03:55:27 -0700 I have only been subscribed to the bible for about two weeks. I am not privileged enough to know any of the people associated with the MISFITS, Samhain, Danzig, UNDEAD, or any band for that matter. Nor do I have anything to sell or trade. I also take no pleasure in trashing other people's tastes. All I care about is how the music of these bands has affected me; and the reason why I subscribe to this bible is to communicate with others who share my interests and can give information about these great bands. I am interested in what draws the select few of us to this music. Here is my take of it: How the Gods Kill was the first Danzig album I heard when it was first released. I bought it because the cover looked cool. I immediately fell in love with it, and is still one of my favorite albums. I later bought the first two Danzig albums. Then, after investigating, I found out about Samhain and the MISFITS, so I bought many of those (however I still can't get ahold of Final Descent). To me, anything Glenn has been involved in has been like an addiction. Yes, after listening a few times, I even love Blackacidevel! I consider Danzig's music to be that of rebellion. I'm not a rebel. I look like your average person (I don't even have a MISFITS t-shirt). His music is the only music I have found to be dark, yet beautiful - very emotional. Anyone can make music, but music with intense feeling, no matter what the lyrics are, is only made by a few artists I am aware of. Don't get me wrong. The band members are equally as vital to the music as Danzig is, and I don't think they get all the credit they deserve. They have helped make this music possible and I am grateful to all of them. If anyone shares these views, and those who don't, I would appreciate any feedback. Here's something interesting: I have met many people who are ex-husbands, ex-wives, ex-friends, and ex-employees, but never have I met an ex-fiend! We are a strong living group existing in a weak dying world!

Seemed like they had a pretty rough night. Doyle's guitar kept going out and some of the songs featured only bass/drums/vocals. At one point I even saw Doyle walk off to the side of the stage and throw his guitar down. Jerry mentioned something about being sorry for the delay and something about a problem with soundcheck. As far as I can remember these were the songs played: Dr. Phibes./American Psycho/Walk Among Us/Speak of the Devil/The Hunger/From Hell They Came/Static Age/TV Casualty/Crimson Ghost/Day of the Dead/Dig Up Her Bones/I Turned Into A Martian/Don't Open 'Til Doomsday/Last Caress/The Haunting/Shining/Hate the Living Love the Dead/Astro Zombies/London Dungeon/Mommy Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight?/Return of the Fly/We Are 138/Night of the Living Dead/Skulls/Devil's Whorehouse *The songs are NOT in order. Anyway, big dissapointment, 8 days before the Holiday, and they did not play Halloween. I think that they cut their set short because of the shitty sound. They didn't do any encores, and when they left the stage, CHUD remained behind his kit. Someone came out, said something to him, and he put on his jacket, waved, and left. They seemed pissed during the whole show anyway. Maybe they only had a really short time slot? It was SUPPOSED to be co-headlining yet GWAR certainly played a lot longer. I hope they come back again soon on their own. One question I do have is: Do the Misfits pick their own music to play over the PA while they are setting up? If they do pick it, then it's very interesting to note that they played 7th House, Sacrifice, and See All You Were off of Danzig 5. I never expected to hear Danzig at a Misfits show. I bet you'd never hear the Misfits at a Danzig show. ...Marino "A river of holy water wouldn't stop me."

Eventually, the conversation turned to the Misfits and Danzig. Anyhow, he informed me that Danzig was going to be in "Prophecy II" playing a/the Dark Angel of Hell.

Date:Fri, 24 Oct 1997 20:48:40 -0400 -From: DrLillen -Date: Thu, 23 Oct 1997 18:24:07 EDT -Subject: question - - Does anyone know if the story about glenn killing those two guys and -their girlfriends after a samhain show is true? I heard He kept their skulls -and their blood. ------------- This is a true story. Glenn killed them. But you made a mistake, he did not keep their blood, him and Eerie drank it later that night. Years later Chuck Biscuits found out about this incident so that is why he left Danzig. Glenn was arrested and went to trial, but the judge let him off. He also put a ban on any publication of this story and sealed the records. People could not figure out why the judge let Glenn Danzig off for murder. I believe his name was Judge Benjamin Anzelone. Could this be Glenn's mysterious secret? Could this be why he does not want to reveal his true last name. I think it is because the Judge was his FATHER!!!

Wouldn't it be nice to have the real truth. I don't buy either story, but at the same time some of it makes sense. We all know Glenn's real name was Anzalone (maybe at one point in his family history it was Danzig), but his little lie makes for a less believable story in the long run. Parts of Jerry's story sound like he's too nice, at least Glenn admits some of his faults. Glenn seems to be more consistent throughout interviews than Jerry, I just wish we could find out the truth.

Come on, that's really lame. Wow... big breasted female! Where's mine? Seriously, if your going to bitch about anything, let it be about the constant display of macho beefcake amongst the bandmembers... constantly strutting around, showing off their well oiled bodies, writhing underneath those spikes and tight, tight arm-bands, arousing homosexual desires in young, confused fiends... it's not really fair!

Bobby is handi-capable, Tammy has an unhealthy obsession with "big" monsters (if you know what I mean), Az doesn't even have the benefit of a full name, Jake Starr is still emotionally weakened from the "analingus videotape" fiasco, the Bleeder's Digest is an inanimate peice of paper who is absolutely nothing compared to the Bill on Capital Hill, and Mark is a silly cheese-head.

One time I was walking down this dark alley, and this huge long haired guy emerged from the depths of hell. Well, he choked the life out of a couple of bums. Yeah, he ripped their souls clean out of their bloodless chests. Well, it turns out it was Danzig. I guess the bums had been trading Misfits bootlegs, and the Unholy One found out. I've NEVER seen the Prince of Darkness SO angry. Anyways, I ran like hell, because after all, it's Lucifer I'm dealing with. I KNOW it was Danzig, because the media says he's satanic, and the media is ALWAYS your best bet for quality information. Also, he puts out a newsletter disguised as a comic (Satanika) to get new recruits for his Evil Army. I KNOW that cause my Mom said so. He HAS to be Nosferatu, because Tipper Gore said so. There's ALSO the fact that the Christians told me that he was Beelzebub. I gotta believe 'em, right? Otherwise I might be banished to the Underworld with all the sinners.

MISFITS American Psycho (1997) Geffen GED 24939 Ahh...who amongst the fiends and ghouls of punk music does not like the legendary Misfits? Even having split years ago, their revered music lives on in the hearts (and CD players) of countless punk fans. Like they say, the spirit of demons, ghosts and aliens never dies. That probably brought about the rebirth of the Misfits (rejoice everyone!) offering with them, an entirely new conjuration (about time too! I'm awfully sick of the same old compilations!). It's relieving to hear that Misfits have kept most of their original sound intact. With yesterday's melodies and today's production, this disc is set for the kill. Opening with the doomsday anthem, "Abominable Dr. Phibes", the mood is set for the arrival of Misfit's first song, "American Pyscho". Yes, the familiar, carefree ravings of the band rang out loud and clear. Michale Graves, successor of former Misfits vocalist, Glenn Danzig, carried his role well. I am convinced. Misfits stalks the earth once more and is here to stay. With sixteen fiendish songs (excluding the intro), it is easy to wallow in the exuberant tunes of "Speak of the Devil", "From Hell They Came", "Dig Up Her Bones", "Resurrection" and hordes of others. Even if you aren't a fan of punk music, this release is really worth the buck, and who knows? It might even do some converting. Its simple, yet amazingly sincere brand of music contains innumerable sing-alongs whose appeal won me over almost instantly. Needless to say this release is absolutely essential for the blood-thirsty punk fan (save your money on corpse paint and buy this disc!).

Heres what I got: First band, Crisis...female death metal...yawn...Highlight: The singer said how she thought all the guys flipping her off REALLY just wanted to be in the band, and that was their way of showing such jealously. ha. Mephaskafafuckalees: A ska band that played for way to long...ug. The Misfits: Well let me first say that this one was quite a disappointment. Ok, ok...FINE, Joey Ramone came out. Yeah, they played three Ramones covers and "1969". That was cool. But why, oh why, was the set so friggen short. Let me see, no "Halloween" (tho, it WAS a "Halloween-esque show"), no "Horror Buisness", no "Night of the Living Dead" (fuck, man, this makes a FOURTH goddamn show of being totally ignored), NOTHING off of "Earth AD". Yawn. Believe it or not, kiddies, but The Misfits OPENED for Gwar. The dramaticly short set says it all. Oh yeah, the band has a new backdrop behind the drum kit. Now its the poster from American Psycho with a blue backround (as opposed to it being the wall of the dungeon, or where ever the Crimson Ghost is walking). More about Joey Ramone: Well, first off the run down was "Glad to see you go", "Here today, Gone tommorow", "1969", and "BlitzKrieg Bop". Apparently, Joey said how he wouldnt go on if Marky was there. Classic moment: Joeys face as the great Marky Ramone took Chuds kit for "BlitzKrieg Bop". Funniest thing Ive seen in a while. What the fuck is Bobby Steele doing at a Misfits show!!?? : ) Yeah, Mr. Steele was there handing out UNDEAD propaganda for the Nov. 14 show at CBGBs. Pretty cool. Talked to him for a while, and he signed my Undead flyer with a pencil (thanxx, you rock Bob!!!). Also, met up with Emily, Leah, and Jaid. Damn cool. After months of seemingly endless emails its nice to finally meet them!! Jaid even gave me a big old hug : ) I cant believe she even remembered me, its been over a year since Ive talked to her. Oh yeah, Emily...I left after the show, my amigo Steve fell on his head and felt pretty sick so he didnt want to stick around. Chud said you were getting gas or something (where, I have no friggen idea, but hey), and he didnt really know where youd be when you got back. What else...A skary gay guy came on to me. He offered me his watch to "spend time with me", and he kept coming up to me periodicly saying 'hi' and hitting me on the shoulder and stuff. (no Bobby, damn it, Im not going to let him buy me a drink!). Also, some girl had her arm around my side for most of The Misfits encore after I helped her up and pushed some guy off her. Guess Im some kind of Misfits show stud, or something. GWAR: Over hyped. My first GWAR show and quite a dissapointment. I actually got a GWAR shirt beforehand, and wanted to return it after the show. Ugg. Not enough theatrics, to much boring shit. The best part was with Sexy actually turning out to be Techno. ("Damn it, Sexy, why the hell did you dress up as Techno Destructo...now I have to kill you"). Most of the show they were talking to some toilet...yawn. Speaking of which, I actually ~yawned~ in the GWAR pit. Yeah, I was pretty bored. Over all, a decent show at best. I had more fun walking around mingling (SP??). Anyone tape it, might as well let me know. dave ------------------------------ From: "Jeremy Kill" Subject: Samhain/Danzig sighting Date: Sat, 25 Oct 1997 15:59:25 -0500 I saw the demon-gargoyle statue in the picture that is inside Samhain's Final Descent cd (the one where Glenn is kind of lurching over) on MTV's "The Real World".

I recently asked my father to bring me back a CD while he was in Japan. I gave him a list of 5-6 bands that I found out about on the web. My top priority was to get a Balzac CD, but they didnt knew them in Tower rec in Tokyo, so he bought me a band called COCOBAT. I still have to get my CD, but from what I have heard, they are a hardcore-metal band. They have a remix album that make them sound like a industrial band, I think its tat one I'm getting. Anyway, I was reading about them, and I found out that their latest CD came out in a LIMITED Edition with a Bonus 5 track EP and on that EP, the track 4 is: Die Die My Darling - We Bite. Anyone knows about those cover songs? Also, if someone can get me CDs or 7inches by the Balzac, e-mail me at: ratmonkey@mindless.com thanks!

"Fiendz" from jersey-- the pals of Bobby we all know and love. Incidentally Wact is their best record "More Fiends" from texas or california (one of the two) pretty hokey long hair college rock post punk. John Doe guested on this record if I remember right "More Fiends" another band that just recently came out. someone was promoting them on the internet and i thought it was the old guys but noooo... and... there was a band called "The Fiends" too if I remmber.

I watched the first show (Live 10/31/81 on Halloween in Bethlehem, PA) and the quality was decent, for an old original Misfits show. The other videos (Braineaters promo, Why Be Something That Your Not, Live Goleta Center CA 1983, Flipside cable and Bookies, Detroit) had quality that was good and bad - I didn't actually watch all of it. Anyway, I'd love to trade this tape (at least 120 minutes total) for some recent shows with Michael Graves. I could also trade for a tape of other old shows that I don't have, or for some Samhain video. If anyone is really interested, but has no trade, $12.00 post paid is cool too.

Well first thing before we get to The Halloween Horror Trivia Contest I have an apology to make. This is to the members of the Bible, I would like to apologize for this stupidy and waste of bible space for the past couple issues. I will not apologize to Persephone, she does not deserve one, being that she lied to all of you since the posts and private e-mail she had on the bible were out of context to make me look like some beastly bitch, plus the threats made to me do not warrant what she wants. I have never claimed or wanted to be queen of anything with the bible. I have never found a need to boast about my collection, and when i have posted what i have paid for pieces in my collection was to make all of you realize that collecting original Misfits, and Samhain records can be done and not spending hundreds of dollars on a single piece. It was even mentioned to me by someone else that I sound like I'm talking down to others, well if I am, I'm sorry. I am the product of two NYers who make me look like a sweetheart.

I remember this, because there was a funny story attached to it. Back in those days, Canadian customs was afraid bands would try to sell their equipment before leaving the country, so to avoid that, they'd make you put a deposit down to cover the taxes, or whatever. If you didn't return with the same stuff - you lost your deposit. Well, THE MISFITS didn't know this, and as they were showing customs the equipment - they started bragging about how valuable the shit was - even though most of it was kinda cheap junk at the time. Then customs hit them with the deposit ! >Date: Fri, 24 Oct 1997 23:20:07 -0500 >From: the pod inside >Subject: A Post So Amazing, You Won't Believe Your Thighs This was, by far, the funniest post I've ever seen on this bible. >Subject: Misfits/GWAR show in NY [review-esque material] >From: davenaked@juno.com (dave naked) >Date: Sat, 25 Oct 1997 15:18:01 EDT >Joey said how he wouldnt go on if Marky was there.

What's all the fuss ? First off, I don't really care for this song - I wish they'd done DOOMSDAY instead. This one reminds me more of IRON MAIDEN than THE MISFITS for some reason. The animation looked really cool, however brief it was. The video, overall, was pretty good. I thought the cheesy gravestones were pretty funny - as well as the animated skeleton arm pointing toward the FIEND CLUB. Some of the cuts were a bit too fast to take in, but I think it was a great effort. Just don't take the damn thing so seriously. It was fun. Some of the posing was dorky, but other times, it worked out great. I really can't see why MTV doesn't show it more often. It's a lot better than the other shit they run. Maybe they're just holding out for THE UNDEAD's video . . . Don't hold your breath guys. ------------------------------ From: Zephyrous Oxide Date: Mon, 27 Oct 1997 09:17:47 -0500 (EST) Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #397 First, does anyone have any information on the Vile Tones?

That IS a second press: Pressing: 1st: 50000 copies Comes with Fiend Club badge, special CD case for STATIC AGE album, and 3 separate slim cases for the remaining 3 CDs. Besides the large detail sticker on the plastic wrap, first pressings also include a smaller sticker: "Limited first pressing containing the special edition package of the Static Age album available only in this box. (see back sticker for more information)" 2nd: Still in press. These copies lack the small first pressing sticker on the front and do not come with the Fiend Club badge or the special STATIC AGE case. They also only include 2 slim cases, each of which holds 2 CDs.

I went to see the Misfits last night in St. Louis and it was the best show I have seen of them so far. A band called Ghoul 5 played and then a band called Soak played. They were ok but nothing special. Then the Misfits came out. It was cool to see them this close to Halloween. They did the usual opening with Phibes and American Psycho. Then a few more songs off of AP and then they played a wide variety of tunes I haven't seen them sing live before. They did return of the fly, ghouls night out, death comes ripping, angelfuck, bloodfeast, and horror hotel among other songs. It was a nice mix to say the least. They played for a while too or at least it seemed like forever. They had a kid come on stage for skulls to sing and another kid came on for don't open til dooms day but the kid took the mic and ws singing and came by me to sing with the crowd and some asshole bouncer pushed him off after Jerry pulled the kid up there. Oh well. Afterwards they were all signing stuff. Jerry was out in the crowd and the other guys were on the side of the stage. I had an unused ticket since one of my buddies couldn't go and i got that all signed by the Misfts so i need to go get a frame. ANyway a great show as usual and the guys were all very nice to everyone and if they read this by some chance, thanks guys for a great show and i wish i could go to chicago to see SOIA too but I can't. sorry for the long post folks. also does anyone have any bootlegs they can tape for me????

This is why. Metal Maniacs magazine says that Lazie isn't in Danzig now, he's playing with Max Cavalera (ex-singer for Sepultura). Sugartooth has a new album but I don't know if Joey Castillo is on it. Prong is touring again with Tommy Victor. So if anyone is in the band it might be Joey Castillo but I guess we'll just have to wait until someone goes to the Halloween show. If I'm wrong blame the magazines because thats where I got my info!!! ------------------------------ From: "Nick Petitti" Subject: Graves vocals Date: Mon, 27 Oct 1997 12:24:04 PST they >still haven't caught on to the fact that you can't hear graves. I have seen the Misfits three times thus far. The first two I couldn't hear a thing Graves was singing, I just went by the music and by the crowd, but this July I caught them at Bogarts in Cincinatti, and I was able to hear his vocals incredibly well. Maybe it was the venue, but I was glad to hear his vocals for the first time live. Perhaps this is an isolated incident, but I would hope not. After the Cincinatti show I was relieved that they had realized their error with the vocals.

For anyone interested, it will be a straight to video release on 01/20/98, and Christopher Walken will be the star. Danzig will play the Dark Angel, and he described his role as more fighting than talking. It's the same kind of plot as Prophecy, Archangel Gabriel(C. Walken) tries to destroy the human race.

If they do pick it, then it's very interesting to >note that they played 7th House, Sacrifice, and See All You Were off >of Danzig 5. I doubt the Misfits would pick Danzig to play, so I doubt they pick it... maybe this accounts for their performance being off. It'd certainly throw me for a loop if I was Jerry or Doyle and I heard Glenn's music while setting up. Or maybe something more insidious... like a curse courtesy of the man himself... Just idle speculation, mind you. By the way, does anybody know if Danzig got the Wolverine part or if he'll be in The Crow III? >I KNOW it was Danzig, because the media says he's satanic, and >the media is ALWAYS your best bet for quality information. Also, he puts >out a newsletter disguised as a comic (Satanika) to get new recruits for >his Evil Army. I KNOW that cause my Mom said so. He HAS to be Nosferatu, >because Tipper Gore said so. There's ALSO the fact that the Christians >told me that he was Beelzebub. I gotta believe 'em, right? Otherwise I >might be banished to the Underworld with all the sinners. Loved the post. You forgot to mention the obvious upside to being banished to the Underworld, however - hanging around with Danzig! Just tell him you loved 5, and I'm sure he and his dark legions will make your eternity an enjoyable one. I was going to end this with a psychoanalysis of Danzig, but I'm not a psychiatrist - although that doesn't seem to be stopping anyone else. Also, anything I decided about Danzig's personality would be bound to be incorrect, simply because of a lack of personal interaction with the subject. Sure, you could suck some stuff out of the songs, but you also have to take into account the fact that sometimes songs are written from the viewpoint of an individual besides the songwriter. 'Mommy, Can I Go Out And Kill Tonight?' could be how Danzig felt, or could be from the viewpoint of someone besides Danzig, which is more likely. The song seems to me to have a narrative quality, and like many of Danzig's songs, particularly the ones he wrote during his membership in the Misfits, seems to be a horror story in a song, about a fictional character. So look at it from all angles.

Okay, before I get nasty e-mail from any fiends who have used this company, please let me explain my situation and the reason why I'm venting it on the Misfits Bible!! Anyway, I found a ad in Goldmine Issue #451 on page 87. It lists they have the Misfits "Dig Up Her Bones" Promo CD for $5.00. So, I was pretty jacked to say the least. Anyway, on Oct. 27 I sent a email to them seeing if they still had it in stock ... they said they did and that they would reserve it for me. Cool! I sent a check for $8.00 today (Oct. 28) and sent an email to them stating I sent the payment. A few hours later, I get an email stating they do not have the Misfits "Dig Up Her Bones" Promo CD!! Needless to say, I'm pretty confused!! I sent another email asking what's up with the sitiuation, and they said : "We really don't know what happened". What the hell kind of response is that? So, I sent a check for something they said they had, but now don't!! I think the whole thing sucks!! Anyway, to get to the point of why I'm venting this on the Bible. If anyone reads this, and has a copy of the Misfits "Dig Up Her Bones" Promo CD that they would be willing to sell, it would be greatly appreiciated. I'm not saying don't use Brouhaha Music Marketing, all I know is I'll deal with the Fiends first, cause if you can't trust a fellow Fiend, who can you trust. Anyway, have a Happy Halloween Fiends!

Name the movie. 2) In the movie Tremors, how many people died? (Bonus 4 points Name everyone who died, who is the first to get eaten(animanls don't count in the answer) Triple the bonus if you can tell how each person died) 3) Name the Universal horror movie that Bela Lugosi had a role in both versions of this movie and what years they were released? 4) A serial about chemically enlarged crayfish, name the title, the year, then name the new title when it was changed into a feature film and the year of its release. 5) As you know Glenn Danzig borrows(for lack of a better word) a lot of things for the Misfits and Samhain, the name of the record label that was used for these two bands as you know was part of a movie title, and one of the Misfits songs has the original title to that movie. Name both the movie titles, and the song. that is it for now. Be ready for Fridays bible, cause this is going to be one hell of a Halloween issue!!!

Eerie actually did go to an Institute and he did graduate. He did this while playing drums for Rosemary's Babies and working the graveyard shift at a shitty chemical plant. He graduated easily and with high grades. As far as killing anyone goes, not even remotely true.

My brother went to the 26OCT97 show in St.Louis. I was wondering if anyone recorded this show. Video or Audio. PLEASE email me if you know where I could get a copy, as it is very important to me. Thanks. He also said that he bought me a copy of the DUHB blue 7". What are people paying for this now. It's limited edition or something like that, isn't it? The Misfits should come to Guam so I don't have to live vicariously through my brothers telephone calls and other peoples bible posts. Anyone that goes to a show and talkes to Jerry or whoever, their tour manager perhaps, could you do me a BIG favor and tell them to come to Guam. (For the unenlightened, Guam is a tiny little insignificant island way out in the middle of the Pacific ocean.) Thanks alot.

Kill. OK enough already. Let's get something straight. Just because something has "THX 1138" in it, doesn't make it a Misfits sighting!! (As if we gave a rat's ass in the first place about Misfits sightings...) It's a GEORGE LUCAS sighting. Yes, that's right. "THX 1138" was George Lucas's student film which he later made into a feature film starring Robert DuVall. Ever since then he's been dropping references to that movie into his films... it's in "Star Wars", I think it's on a license plate in "American Grafitti", etc. The game "Maniac Mansion"? I'm taking a wild stab here, could it be a LucasArts game? Give it a rest, already. 138 == Misfits. THX-1138 == George Lucas. No relation. I don't care that "We Are 138" was inspired by "THX 1138". It just ain't close enough. And NO Glenn Danzig didn't kill anybody!! What are you guys, idiots? But he hurt a guy real bad at one show in San Francisco... I know the guy personally and he still has this big fucking apple-bite mark taken out of his forehead. The plastic surgeons wanted to fill it in with cartiledge and stuff but the guy thought it looked cool and it had a cool story behind it, so he left it the way it was. It was a way close call though, Glenn probably would have killed the guy except before he could finish the job Doyle smashed Glenn over the head with his guitar, knocking him out. That's how come Glenn doesn't remember the story to this day. -- Neil McAllister - Systems Administrator Primo Angeli Inc., San Francisco, CA, USA http://www.primo.com mailto:pcm2@sentient.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 29 Oct 1997 11:56:47 -0500 From: michael_rivera@mcgraw-hill.com (michael_rivera) Subject: Glenn/Erie Von Mark, could you please clear up all these stupid rumors about Glenn and Erie killing someone!!!

I timed it last night while watching the preview copy I received from Dimension films. He has three lines as Samyiel (that's how they spelled it)..."Hello Danyiel", "Long time no see", and finally "Arrggghhh" as his heart is ripped out. That's it, there is no more. For any one who liked the first one you will probably like the second just as much.

Pumroy, x-4534" Subject: c springs show, etc. hey, never saw any set listing saying the misfits were playing "i got a right". I listened (and taped) their sound check before the col springs show through the back door. the bar they played was very small, so it was easy to hear it all. they played both "scream" and "I got a right", along with vampira, NOTLD, DUHB, and some others. before writing me for a copy of the tape, the tape got destroyed. sorry to get your hopes up. I thought "I got a right" was a new song till the Iggy tribute came out. I'm not real cultured not that anyone cares, but I missed them actually playing. Ticket said show started at 7, and only Piston and Misfits were supposed to play, but another band opened that sucked, and they didn't come on till 9. seeing as I have a curfew, I had to leave just before the misfits came on. pretty awesome Isn't anyone suspicious that it seems all of Danzig's band is doing something else and he's playing in the same town as the Misfits on Halloween? Just seems too coincidental to me. just kidding, I think it's just ironic. Lastly, if anybody has heard of the misfits getting in trouble in denver in august, or have heard they are looking for someone who was there, I was there when it all happened and can tell the real story. later kyle ps, gay sighting: Mark on Home Improvement had the new Danzig shirt on last night. ------------------------------ From: "CHARLIE BROWN" Subject: THEBROWNS Date: Wed, 29 Oct 1997 10:16:14 PST FIENDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That movie rules. If any one hasn't seen it, they should go get it. It's takes place in a futuristic world (in the year 2000,wow) and there is a trans-continental race in which you score points by running people over. It's a total riot and one of the funniest movies ever (of-course it's not a comedy, it's the cheesiness and the fact that they run people of thats funny). The "hero" and number one driver's name is called Frankenstein. These could be the lyrics to the song "Death Race 2000" "Look out, cuz Frankie's gonna run you over, Woa oah! Your blood is gonna splatter all over the windsheild! Woa oah!" :) -Nick TS ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 29 Oct 1997 15:59:11 -0330 (NST) From: Peter Subject: Marilyn Manson Someone asked why Marilyn Manson is never talked about here , well just think about it , Marilyn Manson have nothing in common with the Misfits , Samhain or Danzig . They toured with Danzig , but people here don`t seem to care. Their music is nothing like the Misfits, their lyrics are different , and the image is different . Whether people like them or not , I guess there`s no reason to talk about them here . -Peter PS if you`re wondering , yes , I do like them . I`ve liked them for about 3 years now , before the "sweet dreams" video started the ridiculous trend .

Where are you? Well, first thing's first--I'm not sure what's up with the new issue of Vibrations of Doom webzine. It's not out yet, and it was supposed to have been out by last Friday if not before then. I think what's going on is that there are some problems with Steve's e-mail server or the site-writer's e-mail server (he has to e-mail the stuff to someone who can write it in HTML). When this issue comes out, Mark and the rest of you fiends will be the first to know! You don't know how much I am looking forward to this issue coming out! Also, for the most part, my social life at Georgia Tech is not that great. The main thing--there are not enough fiends here! So I'm looking for some fellow Atlanta fiends that would like to hang out (I can also use some beer-drinking pals!). I don't know my way around here too well (I haven't found anyone to show me around!), but I know where places like Little Five Points and The Masquerade are. Also, some of you may be familiar with a place on campus called Under the Couch, which is a place I hang out quite often. Anyway, E-MAIL ME, ATLANTA FIENDS!!! It'd really help me get through this hellish wave of depression that I've been going through since I've been here! Later on, you rotten little bloodsuckers, and have the most ghoulishly fiendishly EVIL HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!! (and HAPPY SAMHAIN!!!!)

Seems to me I'd rather have the 3 Hits 7". But maybe it's cause I already have the Dig Up Her Bones 7" (2 of them) that makes me feel this way. whatever? i'm not trying to make fun of the person paying this, i'm just wondering why it would get more than the 3 hits 7". ------------------------------ From: "Sheila Brown" Subject: Just wasting space Date: Fri, 31 Oct 1997 18:14:36 -0500 I'm just wasting space but if anyone can help me out it would be great.
