The CD numbering system for Plan 9 stuff is different than the LP numbering system (in 2 cases only) The "best of" or "collection" or "Misfits" album is PL9-CD1 and that's what you're seeing.

Just a thought. Well, finally somebody has an opinion about this. I asked about a million times and nobody ever responded. Personally, I think they way it is now (Tuesday, Thursday) is the best way to do it. The issues are pretty consistent in size and come out (obviously) consistently. I try to distance the issues from the weekends because most of the people on the mailing list don't do email over th weekends - probably because it's their time off, whether they're working or at school. Very little mail comes into the mailbox on weekends and that's why the Friday issue was moved to Thursday. dorin@mailbox.mcs.com > > I was just wonderin' where the Crimson Ghost originated.. > is it from some horror movie or is it Glenn's face painted? This is why we need a FAQ. The Crimson Ghost originated in the 1946 TV series title "The crimson Ghost". It's really silly science fiction and can be rented at almost any video store. There's also a shortened movie single video version of the series, which originally ran for 12 episodes. > Is "The Misfits" a good movie? Must be if Glenn likes it right? Yeah right.... > Is "Plan 9 from Outer Space" good? > Bad, bad, bad. Rent it for historical reasons and then you can say you've seen it. > And what is it with Glenn and Marilyn Monroe?

That's really cool. A friend of mine (and EVB's) auditioned and has since become good buddies with Jerry and the Caiafa family. Those guys are serious so if you think you can sing, let them know... okay.. well thanks for the tour dates EVB, see you all next week... mark ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Feb 1995 16:18:41 -0300 From: Michael Joseph McCusty Subject: stuff hi, this is my first post... in response to "why be something your not" [sic] i think this was actually the second show of the tour...my friend has my copy, which includes the "braineaters" video and 2 other shows, one in mass. where they cover "rise above". anywho, i remember glenn saying they had played akron the nite before. i'm pretty sure of this. secondly, i have a boot cd which isn't very good called "heros of danzig". it says it was recorded in 92, i think. maybe 90 or 91. they sound not very together, even for the misfits. my question: was this a reunion tour? someone called the misfits played in ft wayne, indiana within a coupla months of that recording, and i just wondered... lastly, "plan 9 from outer space" was rad, tnt shows it sometimes, check it out. "the crimson ghost" was a serial either on tv or, more likely, shown before old movies, like "flash gordon" was. i saw a video compilation of it at suncoast, at the maul. and, i heard the only cool thing about the film "the misfits" was its name. love, luck, and lollipops, mike ------------------------------ From: Drslfin@aol.com Date: Tue, 28 Feb 1995 16:25:50 -0500 Subject: re: Bible questions Greg (aka) dorin...As far as where the Crimson Gohst came from there was an old TV series called the Crimson ghost which had some guy in a red Cape and a cheesy mask. He seemed to be a kind of superhero. As far as the mask it looks exactly like the misfits crimson skull. If you have a Suncoast Pictures near you check for it there, I just happened to see it one day and there were about 5 different tapes. Good Luck.

It has a buncha tracks from their singles and albums and such. Pretty cool. Most Misfits songs on 1 cd. Also about the new Misfits.. I suppose I don't mind a new Misfits I am just going to keep an open mind on them and not judge them until I hear it first. I am trying to get my friend to send them a tape but he is sucha shy fool. Oh well. They are obviously going to mainly lack the writing and vocal power that Glenn gave but they have 2 original members. It would be cool if they could get along with one of the old drummers and have him join up but oh well. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Feb 1995 19:06:42 -0600 (CST) From: Deana Greenfield Subject: collection Hey Scheckey the misfits album you saw is just a collection of 20 Misfits' songs including some previously unreleased versions of songs.... here's the song list....

To dorin@mailbox.msc.com (Greg): The Crimson Ghost (skull face) is from a bad horror serial from a long while back (good ol' black and white) The archfiend is a Scientist-Gone-Bad who uses a garage door opener to crash jet planes until the good guy and his dog, Timmy, take him out. Sounds corny? it is... but it's funny to see the CG running around (and eventually trip on a stump with Timmy in hot pursuit). Rent it with Plan 9 from Outer Space and enjoy the cheeze... Sheckey the Jackal: Collections... Well, I have the Discography ("green skull face" album ((Crimson Ghost, see above)) in my hot little hands and it says PL9-CD1, Distributed by Caroline Records, Inc. 114 West 26th street, New York, N.Y. 1001. I'm not sure if it has always been this. However, the Plan 9 numbers and the order of release are not synonymous... I think Samhain: Initium has a really low number, and Legacy of Brutality is like PL9-CD6. On to your other questions, 14 bucks for it is an okay price. No matter where I went (Best Buy even!) it wasn't a cheap-o. snook@umich.edu (Eric) ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Feb 1995 22:58:08 -0400 (EDT) From: RYAN_JAS@bentley.edu Hey EVB, Tour Dates???

Im not kidding, its all we live for up here. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 28 Feb 1995 23:55:48 -0500 (EST) From: Unholy Living Dead Subject: Misfits minus Danzig Okay, I know a lot of people are down on the thought of The Misfits continuing on with a new singer, and to an extent, I can relate. The vocals make the songs for me, especially when it comes to The Misfits. But. Black Flag went through many singers. Did their "sound" change? Did the quality of their music change? No, no really. Sure, when Rollins was with the band, they sounded far different on some songs then when other singers were singing. Big deal. The songs were still good. I'm betting the same thing will happen with The Misfits. Hell, if I could find some people to back me up, I'd throw a tape together and send it to them. I think it'd be great fun to perform as a member of the band. Now, I've been away for a few weeks, so to return to a couple old bits addressed to or near me, forgive me if I forget something, I'm doing this all from memory with a fever. Heh. On Marilyn Manson, the best part of the show up here, for me, was definately when they covered the Eurythmics. That was incredible. I also liked Monster Voodoo Machine. They were honest, and trying to make sure everyone had fun. That was nice. On King DIamond/Merciful Fate (or whatever) yes, I've heard OF them. No, I've never heard them. And am I the only one out here that thinks Glenn would look good with a shaved head? Heh. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 1 Mar 1995 16:20:12 -0500 (EST) From: Alexandra Gerber Subject: Glen's Voice I'm not going to try to include the text here, because this digest thing is too damned unwieldy. Here goes- Danizig may very well have "grown into" his voice- but he's writing shit music. HIs voice, IMHO, was at the top of its game perhaps in Hollywood Babylon, but *definitely* in Last Caress. Angelfuck wasn't half bad either. I'm assuming everyone heard him sing Less Than Zero on the soundtrack- he could have stuck with that style, rather than let himself degenerate into the trash vocalist he has become on Danzig III and IV. Not to mention the whole cheesy sell-out thingL what's up with that Angel of the 7th Dawn club, and the "What Would You Do For Danzig" contest they had right after the release of Lucifuge. I was on the mailing list for a while, and let me tell you, all I got were newsletters telling me to cal MTV and my local radio stations to request his songs as much as I possibly could. Lame.

The new series of dates commences March 24 in San Francisco and winds up in Florida on May 14. Opening for DANZIG will be Marilyn Manson and Korn. A few surprises are being planned for the DANZIG show during this second round of dates, but fans can expect the same kind of hyper-imaginative staging and lighting that overwhelmed audiences on the first go-round. DANZIG's latest album, DANZIG 4, was the #1 Most Added at Metal radio when it was released last fall. Since then, the album has been in Billboard's Top 200 for twelve weeks straight, and the band has toured consistently, most recently returning from a whirlwind 5-city promotional visit to Holland, Italy, and Germany. The third and latest single video from Danzig 4, "I Don't Mind The Pain," is currently set for release on March XX. Once the latest U.S. tour wraps up, the band returns to Europe for a summer-full of festival dates and headline gigs. Then, DANZIG returns home for continued U.S. touring through late summer and early fall. Together since 1988, DANZIG consists of charismatic lead singer/songwriter Glenn Danzig, guitarist John Christ, and bassist Eerie Von. New drummer Joey Castillo joined the group last year.

I noticed that someone also said that everyone on this list does not live on the East coast. This is true, I live in Oregon now but am from California, and it is very hard to find rare Misfits things outside of big cities.

Toodles. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 02 Mar 1995 14:41:23 -0500 From: Brent Christopher Eyestone Subject: SELLOUT!! Since things are kind of lagging as of late (the last issue was pretty much nothing but answering the Collection question and the B-movie questions), I figured I'd throw this at you. What do you all think about when someone uses the word "sellout?" The reason I bring this up is because this is a word that has been slapped on Glenn and Henry(Rollins) by a great number of people. I suppose that Henry's performance last night on the Grammy's made me think about this question. There he was, strutting on stage in a tuxedo, "singing" his MTV hit "Liar." I wanted to say "sellout" as I watched, but I know better than that. Here's why: To me, selling out is all about losing touch with your real fans and paying more attention to money rather than making good music. You then take the money you've made and just SIT on it and do absolutely NOTHING beneficial for others without it. Then you start acting like a completely different person (dressing different, giving interviews differently than before, basically making an ass out of yourself). I guess somewhere in there you start believing all the shit MTV has to say about your sorry "voice of Generation X" ass. By this definition (which is strictly my view), Henry is not a sellout and Glenn is not a sellout. Yes, both men are making MASSIVE amounts of money (off you and me!!). BUT, they are not sitting on top of it and they aren't taking it easy. Both of these men are making it possible (through their money) for other artists to make a comfortable living and perhaps make an impact on the face of a bigger audience. Both men look the same, act the same, and think the same (FOR THE MOST PART) as they did before this new success and wealth. So what exactly are they doing with their money? Well, Henry openly admits that he does the Gap ads and the MTV sports segments and all that garbage for the money. Do you know where the money goes? STRAIGHT TO HIS PUBLISHING COMPANY. Henry takes HIS money and applies it to publishing books and tapes of authors and artists that you will not find on the New York Times Best Sellers, but nonetheless NEED to be heard. People like Don Bajema, Exene Cervenka, etc. - it all comes out of HIS pocket. Henry also takes his money and together with Rick Rubin, spends it on re-recording early-80's punk bands and redistributing the albums, benefiting both the original artists and fans who missed out the first time on the bands. Glenn does similar things with his money. I know that there have been numerous posts about how cheap he is etc....but I think he justs knows where he wants to spend his money and where he doesn't. If you look at some of the back issues, you'll notice how we talked about Verotik, Glenn's new comic company. A lot of people probably see this as yet another way for Glenn to make even more money. This is so far from the truth. Yes, he does make money from this venture, BUT like Henry, he is using it to help out other artists who aren't lucky enough to be in his position - TIM VIGIL in particular. For those unfamiliar, Tim does an independent B&W comic titled Faust that has won him the praise of many underground comic readers. Tim is also in charge of Rebel Studios, a small publisher that puts out Faust and other indies like EO and Gunfighters In Hell. Anyways, some of the stuff Tim does is absolutely phenomenal but because his company is so small, not too many people can enjoy his work. Enter Glenn. EVB told me that Glenn is planning on taking the Faust saga, footing the bill, and printing it in COLOR! This, coupled with Glenn's name, should help Tim and many of the people who have never heard of Faust enjoy something that is truly remarkable. I know most of you would check it out simply because Glenn is linked to it. If you don't believe it, how many of you have watched those B-movies because of Glenn and the Misfits? Anyways, the point is that Glenn and Henry are not sellouts by my definition. I would consider them more as "helpouts" for artists who otherwise would not be heard by the general public. Think about this the next time you want to accuse them of selling out. Yes, sellouts DO exist (what is Green Day doing with their fortune? Pot?), we just need to be more careful who we label as sellouts and who we don't. I apologize to anybody who was bored by this or who thinks that "Henry Rollins has nothing to do with the Misfits." We are 138, motherfucker...... Thanks for reading.....Brent E. ------------------------------ From: DarkLo730@aol.com Date: Thu, 2 Mar 1995 14:40:44 -0500 Subject: Glenn was the songwriter In the misfits and all the bands since, Glenn has been singing as well as writing the music.

I mean, the song isn't as difficult as "mother". =) For those of you with requests: All Misfits stuff: standard tuning.

I doubt this is a collecter's item or anything but if you get anything by Danzig you can get your hands on, get it. Chris ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 2 Mar 1995 20:12:36 -0600 (CST) From: Belle Wood This is a reply to Alexandra Gerber. The reason that the mailing list was so lame was that it was evidently run by a bunch of shitheads at the time, an allegedly professional company whose main gig was to do fan clubs for bands. Danzig often payed them to do things they did not do; for instance, they payed them twice to send out tour dates. They never did. Many fans complain that the stuff they *were* sending out at the time was a bunch of shit too. Liz said they sent out pencils with the skull on them. I myself paid them twice to join the damn list, and never once heard anything from them. C'est la vie. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 02 Mar 1995 21:31:46 -0500 (EST) From: 00gdwessel@bsuvc.bsu.edu Subject: yeah yeah right As usual, replies first: >------------------------------ > >From: LUCIFER18@aol.com >Date: Wed, 1 Mar 1995 16:30:33 -0500 >Subject: answerin all yer questions > >to:Scheckey the Jackal >Subject: PL9-01? > >>something called "Collection".

Played a show? I`ve heard nothing of i t. And Holland is very, very small and I usually read the metal and alternative mags. Damn. And why is he selling out by playing on the mayor festivals in Europe this summer? On MTV Europe he`s even mentioned between the Pretenders and Van Halen for the coming Rock am Ring. What`s next a duet with Garth Brooks. Why doesn`t he remain in the club-circuit. It suits the music and attidude of him a lot better. Damn.

If you want everything about the Misfits you've got to have this record. It features ex-Misfits drummer Mr. Jim (Jim Catania) who played on such excellent Misfits songs like "Attitude" and "Hollywood Babylon". Mr. Jim's "other" band was Continental Crawler, who put out a limited edition EP with 3 songs in 1979. There are only a few copies left of this rare record which features a picture sleeve and a band picture. You can get a copy by sending $4.00 (check or money order) to: Mike Myers P.O.

Thats about all I have to say. Well I have a little bit more to say. Why don't you sit yourself down and type some bass tab? Is this such a hard concept for people to understand? How many of you have been playing an instrument for more than 1 week? I assume than that you know what notes are. They are those funny little dotes with lines on them. They have been around MUCH longer than TAB. Maybe you have heard of it before..I believe it is called sheet music. People have been so spoiled by TAB it's making me sick. Look, I posted those chords so anyone with half a clue as to where to fret those notes on a guitar (bass or otherwise) would be able to play them. Let me clue you in....the Misfits...they weren't ones to harmonize much. If the guitar is playing a "G" I'm willing to bet my last body organ on the fact that the bass is playing a "G" also. I explained last time that when the bass is doing that galloping thing, that 9 times out of 10 it is just root, octave, or root, minor third. If you don't know what that means, I suggest learning. I have given you all the root notes...all you need to do is sit down and listen to the damn CDs and play. Unless you're Keith Richards I assume that you'll be able to hear when the guitar and bass change notes. No one likes to work for anything anymore. Everyone wants something handed to them. Learn for yourself, they aren't too tough. It takes more than being able to play a few power chords to be a good guitarist. --Robert (forever shaking his head at the people that just don't get it.)

Jerry not only claims to have written he did write as did every other person in the band (with exception to the drummers) the MAJORITY of the music that they played.

Date: Tue, 7 Mar 1995 13:16:05 -0500 (EST) well, i have enjoyed being a bystander for a little while, seeing that i have only posted once in about a month or so... but i wanna say a couple of things that just came to mind. if you are unaware, FLIPSIDE magazine released a 2 cd set called "The best of Flipside Vol. 1", i think, and it contains about 50 or so punk songs, one of which is "Attitude" by the Misfits. It is a live recording of the song, and a fairly good one at that. I got the cd a long time ago, and it completely slipped my mind to tell you about it until today. Does anyone out there happen to have any boot cd's of the Misfits that they would be willing to make copies of? I have a good collection of video boots by punk bands myself (including the misfits), perhaps we can trade... I was also thinking of this, it would be really cool for those of us who do not have access to the rare stuff by the misfits if someone made a tape of the b-sides and rare songs by the misfits and put all or a lot of them on a 90 minute tape. we could then send that person blanks or postage $ (or both) to get a hold of it. If you think it is a good idea, respond to me privately and let me know what you think. obrien81@matrix.newpaltz.edu Otherwise, post suggestions on the list. thanx. I met Glenn and John Christ in December 1993 in NYC after the show w/ Kyuss at the Roseland. Was anyone else there? Glenn was friendly and shook my hand. I may catch Danzig at The Utica Aud. April 25th.

Also whoever wrote about selling out. I bow to you. You brought up a good point and really.. both those guys (Hank and Glenn) have been doing this for over 15 years now. They deserve something for their work and they deserve to make a living off what they do as long as they stay true to themselves. So what if Glenn has a comic company? Maybe thats been his ambition for some time now and now he has the funds to finnaly start it. And Henry also wants others to be heard on his publishing company.

I disagree with your statement that Glenn's intention with Verotik is to support other artists. If you look at the upcoming (???) Verotik releases, how come that 3 out of 4 titles (not counting the Satanika origin story in Verotika #1) are written by ... Glenn Danzig? Couldn't it rather be that he's using his current popularity to sell a couple of hastily slapped together comic books and pretend he's a writer? He should leave this field to the real pros like Frank Miller, Paul Chadwick or John Byrne. About Tim Vigil, well, I can't say that I'm into Faust, but I have to agree that he's a great artist. However, where's the point in slapping stupid computer colors over artwork that was intended to be in b/w? Some things are best left untampered with. ralph "Why can't all the old bands reform stick to playing their old songs it ain't punk if it ain't just like the old days.

I don't think that Glenn's a sell= out in any respect, that's for sure. I think that "selling out" is= compromising one's integrity and emotions to gain monetary respect. I= think if Glenn where to turn "grunge" he would be a sell out. I think that= if Glenn where to turn "punk" again, he'd be a really big sell out. Glenn= likes what he's doing and he's not compromising any of his professional= career for it. He does what he wants wheter or not other people like it.

OR DID YOU FORGET? to sean, al's bar was owned by someone named moore, u can't recall his first name, from what i've heard he was sorta an ass, but htan all club owners are. i agree with breet about the sellout part, neither danzig or rolloins changed their musical style, and the extra $$$ they get goes back to the struggling industry they rose from. isn't that the idea of r'n'r, or punk, to make $$. even if you on't wanna make a shitload, and be underground, you gotta make money, even gg made money. i also play bass, and would love some tabs, because i'm too lazy to figure them out, and don't got the time. paul -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Hahn | "...Hi, I'm your concience, and we're easily hahnpaul@acm.msu.edu | distracted by bright shiny objects..." hahnpaul@student.msu.edu | - the Tick -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ From: "Bouras, Elizabeth" Subject: Missed a few.... Date: Wed, 08 Mar 95 17:12:00 est Didn't mean to miss a few bibles but have been REALLY busy lately - sigh... not enough hours in the day! Sorry when I first posted that bunch of tour dates that I didn't specify it was DANZIG and a few of you thought it was for the Misfits- hopeful thinking!! Next time I'll remember to be more thorough and say what band it's for! Anyway, updated dates should be in this bible as they are still rearranging dates. Mark, CG & everybody else - I'm working on a Misfits FAQ, just coming slowly since I haven't had much time... I've been going through old Bibles & taking questions that were asked in there. Of course many are best answered by consulting Mark's exhaustive discography since most are in the category of "is this a bootleg" and what record is "x" on, but if anybody has any others PLEASE forward them to me for inclusion! Sorry it's taken me so long! I wouldn't mind doing a Samhain one too if anybody has any Q's on them. Few comments on 60/61/62: Mark - I like the Tuesday/Thursday schedule so I hope you'll keep it. I don't think the size is too big & would justify more frequent bibles. Michael Joseph McCusty - welcome aboard (as of MB #61 - told ya I'm behind!) Got a great giggle from your sig "love, luck, and lollipops" from my 2nd fav P&TB episode (after "Bubba Bo Bob Brain") Alexandra Gerber asked " What's Up with the Angels of the Seventh Dawn fan club." Oh boy I could spend hours on this topic - I've been quite and frustrated about this a long while but maybe it's time I told folks what's up. Here's the scoop - Danzig had originally contracted a Van Nuys based firm called American Noise some years ago to run AOTSD for them - the band was also paying these guys to do mailings & send out things like tour dates, etc. At first they sent out a ton of stuff & then slacked off and the band only found out that stuff wasn't coming out when fans came up to them & asked "how come I never got...." etc. So after a ton of complaints the band that he wanted to do it (already doing the hot line messages & answering 95% of the fan mail himself) so he told folks to send him five bucks for a newsletter. Well, he put those out quarterly for a year but he no longer has the time. Anyway, I've been volunteering to do it for years now (feeling strongly that a real FAN who really cares about the band could do a better job than some guys just paid to do it), and have been telling them this since they started having problems with American Noise, but Glenn wanted to give EV a shot since he was so keen on it. Now that EV doesn't want to do it I've got Glenn's OK but he wants me to clear everything with their management. Here I've been running into a brick wall as this guy does not return phone calls, answer letters & the few times I've been able to get through to him on the phone he's put me on hold right away & promised to call back. I know he's a busy Hollywood bigshot (who also manages Guns N'Roses) and Danzig probably isn't his biggest priority, but it's hard not to feel like I'm getting blown off. I've written the band to tell them what's up & hope to get a chance to talk to them when I see them again on this upcoming tour - maybe they just have to instruct their manager to get in touch with me. (Hey, he might not even believe me & think I'm just coming out of left field with this crazy notion, right?) But trust me, I am doing everything I can!!! Meanwhile I'm trying to do as much as I can to promote the band - hence the tour date postings, alt.music.danzig FAQ and passing on news & info on the band whenever possible - until I can do it "officially" for them I'll do everything "unofficially" as best I can! (And if/when I get this running I can assure you it WILL NOT BE "LAME"!) Brent Eyestone: agree with you on "Sellout". Actually I define selling out as when you tailor your creation to be more commercially palatable & easier to sell to the mainstream. Let's face it, if Glenn REALLY wanted to sell millions & millions of records he'd have to ditch the "dark" side of things that tend to make most folks nervous as something a little warmer & cuddlier would be more commercial to the mass populace. Ain't gonna happen - the money isn't THAT important to him (or he would have taken the vocalist position in Metallica when it was offered to him) It just pisses me off to no end when people yell "sellout" just because other folks have discovered it when the basic music or whatever hasn't changed. Like NIN for example - I think "The Downward Spiral" is HARDLY what you'd call "accessible" and for the life of me I can't figure out how they got so huge overnight except there must be THAT MANY disaffected depressed youth out there that identify with Mr., Reznor, which in itself is a little frightening. Good point about how both Henry and Glenn are putting their $ back into their publishing companies - I think it's great they can do something worthwhile & promote fields they are interested in! (BTW Brent or anybody else - did anybody tape Henry Rollins on the Grammys? I missed it & really want a copy of it - can trade Misfits videos!) CTernes - that must be a different promo CD of Cantspeak! Mine is one of the "blank" ones that doesn't tell who the band is on the disc or sleeve. The idea behind that was to give it to DJ's that might have preconceived notions of Danzig & get them to play it without knowing who it was. I didn't even know there was another version so thanks for the info! Now I'll have to hunt that one down. Wolverine-j - the 5 city promo tour Glenn did in Europe was just to do press interviews for the forthcoming festival gigs they'll be doing in late May/June. Sorry but I don't have any dates aside from Berlin 5/29. BTW this isn't the first time they've played the metal festivals in Europe - they've been playing them for years! And it doesn't mean they won't necessarily also play clubs over there as well - a pen pal of mine follows them around Europe much like I do here in the US & he's told me they've played many clubs in between the festival dates. (If you have problems getting info on dates I can send you his address as he'd be a good person to contact) Better scram for now - off on another roadtrip again tomorrow AM. Yeah, I know the Danzig tour hasn't started yet but I'm off for three more MARILYN MANSON shows! (Stop the presses - Liz is following another band!) And I am so psyched that they'll be opening for the Danzig tour since after seeing them live they quickly zoomed up my personal hit parade to become my 2nd fav band. (If anybody is interested there is also a MM mailing list & home page - write me for info if interested!) And yes, their Eurythmics cover of "Sweet Dreams" must be heard to be believed! Speaking of MM, yes, I taped the Donahue show they were on - it was a riot! Some "old school" punks were on talking about the early days but no, afraid they didn't mention the Misfits.

I'm new here, so this may be old new to everyone, but I was in the bookstore the other day looking through the rock n roll section, and I was flipping through the Henry Rollins book "Get In The Van" and there was a picture of the Misfits with Rollins. It was a nice group shot of the whole band. There was also another book called "Punk Rock diary" or something like that. The only mention of the Misfits in the entire book was a short anecdote about how they had played a show with the Damned and had discussed a possible European tour over beers afterward, and then a couple of months later the Misfits showed up at the Damned's singer's house in England completely unannounced and said that they were ready to go on tour. Even though nothing had been planned, they went on tour anyway. It's kind of funny to me that in all of those books and anthologies and histories of punk rock, the Misfits almost never get mentioned. They were probably a pretty obscure band in their day, and have a lot more fans now than they ever did when they were around. ------------------------------ From: "Bouras, Elizabeth" Subject: LATEST DANZIG TOUR UPDATES as of 3/8/95 Date: Wed, 08 Mar 95 16:03:00 est LATEST TOUR UPDATES: EV changed the message on the hot line again & they've changed around some of the tour dates, so here's the latest listing - I've tried to mark the changes with an asterisk.

I think Rob showed me one afternoon in my backyard how to finger a power chord: "Root, fifth, octave. Got it, Ryq?" "Uh, do I have to do use the octave?" A while later, I figured out the chord changes on the bass, learned the guitar, then called up Rob and told him how to play "bullet". I had only been playing for 6 months. The result? All the lovely TAB available on Mark's beautifully done Misfits WWW Page. And I am definitely *not* a musical prodigy. Sure we're still correcting ourselves, but it's there on the Page for you to work with. The chord changes are for guitar, bass, keyboard, a friggin sax if you want. Knock yourself out...

Anyways, can someone tell me the style of playing jerry only used (how he picked, what gauge pick he used, and if he is actually doing all i said above...) mabey im trying to hard... ___ | _ \ /___ __ ### HE'S ONE BAD### [elslayer@aol.com] |___ | /_\ \/|__ |__> ### ### or ___||__/ \/ |___| \ ### MUTHA ### [slayer@cyberverse.com] ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Mar 1995 17:33:52 -0500 From: Brent Christopher Eyestone Subject: rawk Hi everyone, First off, thanks to everyone who responded to my "SELLOUT!!" post. You guys had a lot of intelligent ideas to add to the conversation and it was a lot of fun reading your posts in return. This is what these lists are made for. To Ralph in Stuttgart: No, I haven't seen the upcoming titles for Verotik. I made those comments concerning Glenn and Verotik based on conversations EVB and I had privately. If you think Glenn's entrance into the comic field is self-serving - fine. But there's a lot of people who feel otherwise. Thanks anyways. How's Stuttgart these days (I used to live there)? To EVB: Sorry buster! I did not tape Henry's Grammy performance because I had no idea he would be on. I'll try to locate a copy for you, though. BTW, it should be known that Henry attended the post-Grammy party wearing a black t-shirt and shorts (it was supposed to be a black-tie affair!). Great commentary on NIN in regards to the sellout thing! Check out the new Details magazine for even more! To Lucifer and anyone who cares: Listen, I guess you're new here or something. So let me tell you a story. When I first posted to this list, I thought I was some bad-ass holier-than-thou motherfucker (sound familiar?) whose first post contained a rather mean-spirited flame directed toward a contributer named Big Ted. Let me tell you, this was probably the stupidest thing I've ever done with a computer because before you could say "flamethrower," I had the wrath of the Crimson Ghost upon me (do you even know who he is?). Anyways, Crimsy explained to me that flames and attitudes should be checked at the door because this list and the people on this list act like a "family." Often dysfunctional - but a family nonetheless. We look out for each other and we do not maliciously attack one another like you have chosen to do. Why don't you just take the time to sit down and think of something that is worth posting? You will find that the people on this list will be more respondent and will help you in anyway they can once you post something legitimate. For instance, in the time I've been on this list, I've become better acquainted with EVB, Yannis, Robert Flemming, the Crimson Ghost, and Chris Vomit to name a few. I've learned a lot from these people about non-Misfits things etc. through private posts. Chris Vomit and I are even planning on trading tapes, something impossible if you act like a fucking idiot and make everyone on the list hate you. Don't you have anything better to do with your time than sit like a *coward* behind your keyboard and peck out immature little comments toward people miles and miles away from you? What's your AOL bill like every month? Anyways, grow up or shut up. To Robert Flemming: I hope that the new tab format is coming along well for you. You make a good point about people not knowing their chords! Remember, if you get too frustrated, STOP!! Nobody ever said you had to do this (I know, it's your own anal-ness driving you). Good luck. To Mark: If this is a FAQ, flame me. But do you still send out the Misfits Bible in the summer? I don't recall if you've answered this before. Well, I've posted way too much once again. I hope everyone had or is having a great spring break! -Brent E. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 13 Mar 1995 18:27:08 -0800 (PST) From: Tom Spence Subject: the last Bible, dammit! Errr.. Netmail is confusing me. Anyways, I figured I finally reply to a bible finally. About the guitar music, what is there is fine. I've managed to figure out just about every song from what was written (thanks to whoever did it). My band covers a bunch of Misfits tunes now. Like Skulls, 138, Night of the Living Dead, Teenagers From Mars, Hollywood Babylon and more that I can't remember. Anyone else play in a band that does MiSfiTs songs? About lyrics, does anyone have the lyrics to 138 that are right? What I've got from listening just doesn't sound right. Sort of pertaining to the Misfits - Does anyone have any songs off of Black Flag's 'Damaged' tabbed? E-mail me...

CG, sorry to say, but with few exceptions (namely buddies of mine, my brother, Dischord Records, you, and Larry of Lookout! Records), the majority of people on AOL that I've come across _are_ morons. One thing about AOL is that it's opened a floodgate of people with access to the net. Unfortunately most of the ones who post to newsgroups, this list, whatever, are people of Lucifer18's stock, i.e. people who just wanna start flamewars and just blow people shit in general. Mind you, this is only an account of people that _I've_ come across. This is by no means saying that everyone on AOL are shitbags or anything. Maybe I should have worded it differently.

OK, a few things on this. First, asking him to removed off the list is NOT gonna solve anything. He still could quite conceivably post to the list without being ON the list. Who's to say this twerp won't just attempt to terrorize us that way? Besides, removing someone from the list for just flaming people is, in my opinion, shady. We don't have to go through a screening process to subscribe, but at the same time that shouldn't mean that Mark should just nuke him. Best bet is to ignore him (but, as you will see below, I have a few things to say to him anyways. Do as I say...) Second, here is my soapbox about the list. Majority of people like the digest format. Fine. BUT, at the same time, if we went to a mail-out-as-posted frequency, like the majority of mailing lists, problems like LUCIFER18 could be solved by a simple thing called a KILLFILE. Most unix mailers are equipped with a method to write these. Digest formats don't really allow for that.

(Actually I think it's the best thing about that album...) Out of curiosity who would you consider an "interesting" artist if he is so boring? (I ask being one to collect interesting art...) evan obrien - I was at the Roseland show with Kyuss!! It was in '92 tho, the '93 NYC show was at the Ritz in May.... Wish I could make Utica but I doubt it as I'm aiming for the last 10 or 11 in a row... Also, the FLIPSIDE CD set is a reissue - there is a MUCH earlier series of vinyl releases. Vol 1 has a live Undead song, Vol 2 has the live version of "Attitude". It also came with a photo collage poster that had a cool photo of the Misfits with Vampira. Deane Greenfield - was this Danzig show supposedly in Philly? I have been to all of them there since 1990 and NEVER heard anything like what your friend reports. Or at any other Danzig show (of the 60 I've been at) I would have remembered that. Are you sure this isn't just another untruth or rumor - they run rampant on the 'net! Ralph Herbert - First off, I object to your comment about coloring Faust "slapping stupid computer colors over artwork that was intended to be in bl/wh". No, it wasn't INTENDED that way, it's just a case of it is nearly impossible for a very small independent comic operation like Rebel to be able to afford color printing as it is hideously expensive. According to Vigil he would have loved to have seen it in color from the beginning but couldn't afford it & it was a case of bl & wh or not at all. Verotik has better financial resources for the printing. As for why Glenn is doing so much of the writing - he wasn't happy with how others were writing it. He'd originally hired David Quinn to write Satanika & then got really upset because David had changed so much of it (names of characters etc) and was trying to write it to sound like Neil Gaiman! So I think his attitude is more like "if I want it done right I'll do it myself". What do you mean like "leave this field to the real pros like Frank Miller, Paul Chadwick or John Byrne" Huh? Are you saying you don't want any new stuff in the comics field & just want the same proven writers/artists over & over? while I would argue their brilliance I have to say I personally am always looking for new & interesting stuff. HororHotel - yes the 'Fits were obscure when they were around (I was into "the scene" at the time & nevah heard of 'em then) but don't try and tell this crowd that or it will set them off again...... New addition for the discography - the other day I picked up a German import CD single for "Cantspeak" - # 74321 25799 2. Tracks are: Cantspeak (album version), Cantspeak (edit), Twist of Cain (live) and Dirty Black Summer (live). The live tracks were recorded at the last show of their last tour at the Seattle center 12/19/94 (I was there & it was a GREAT show so I'm so happy they used these tracks! I just wish they'd do a whole live album or better yet a video) Thanks to all that e-mailed me for info on the Marilyn Manson list - I'm still writing back to everybody as I got a TON of mail while I was away - great roadtrip, their shows were brilliant even tho the Columbia one turned into a fiasco when Monster Voodoo machine pulled some evil end of the tour stunts on them. And I even got to meet everybody & give Mr. Manson an incredibly cool Marilyn Manson hand painted lunch box (this is up there with the Danzig cookie tins) - ciao! - EVB ------------------------------ From: CTernes@aol.com Date: Mon, 13 Mar 1995 22:18:36 -0500 Subject: HELP!!!!!!!!!

As it is, almost every Misfits song, rare or not fits on a 100 minute tape. People are always asking me to make tapes, and it would be convenient if we just had a master tape of all the songs. All the songs from singles, and Return Of The Fly will fit easily onto one side of a tape like that, but that leaves the second side with nothing to put on. Maybe demos or a rare show or something...

Anyhow he wrote "London Dungeon" in there and on the 2 live versions i have on it he rips on the british he also says in many interviews he hates british punk and new wave stuff. Glenn also didn't seem to like the west coast punk in its day except for Black Flag. Also I think the tape idea would be cool. Maybe if we could all chip in a little for those who want one we could make it pretty nice looking and have it just for the people on the Bible. If you are looking for some of the rare songs look on like the vinyl bootlegs like RETURN OF THE FLY or like differnt demos and such cuz they have pretty good sound quality and are usually 4 - 10 bucks at the most. I have the RETURN OF THE FLY bootleg which is cool cuz it has "Last Caress" and the original Cough/Cool version of "She" on it plus there are also easy to find vinyl bootlegs of some of the singles and EP's. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 14 Mar 1995 15:51:30 -0600 (CST) From: Deana Greenfield Subject: incident in Philly? maybe i got the place wrong i know it was in penn. though...or maybe the person just wanted to make me angry.... but thanx anyway Elizabeth and Mark for replying... deana ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 14 Mar 1995 17:20:35 -0800 (PST) From: Tom Spence Subject: misfits Mark - about the tape of all the Misfits singles, how about using the one you made for me?

The reason we cannot send the bible out in single post format is that; Mark is a college student and on limited budget. The program he has simply takes mail that we send him and if it was sent to misfits@UVA.... then it simply strips the header info and places it in an outbound box. Nice and simple, however, he *cannot* do it any other way but Digest format. This has been good enough for the last year I suspect it will be good enough for some time to come. Now on the bright side RE: Lucifer18@Assholes on the Loose (AOL): this makes it *very* simple to boot him off the list. Since this list is nothi ng more than Mark's own forwarded mail compiled into one package, all Mark would have to do is institute a "Kill File" to ignore all mail from him. See Lucifer you really don't know all that much! I have persuaded mark to let Lucifer stay on the list until such time as #1) He redeems himself, at which time we would have no problem with him being on in the first place. or #2) We have a majority vote of the people who actually post to this list. To just remove him would be eating into all of our rights and exersising to much of the "Big Brother" mentality for my tastes personally. btw: only people on AOL would know this but people on AOL have the option of posting a profile. A breif blurb about yourseld basically. Well I took the time to read Lucifer18's It reminded me of somebody else's that somebody else is a member of this list now. He also joined the list under a different name and under that original name sort of talked like Lucifer. Does anyone know who I may be refering to?? +---------------------------------------------------------+ |The Crimson Ghost |"God save the queen, from | | | facist regime" Johnny Rotten | || | | |"Castles made of sand melt into | |Hopatcong, NJ USA | the sea, eventually" Jimi Hendrix | +---------------------------------------------------------+ ------------------------------ From: CrmsnGhost@aol.com Date: Wed, 15 Mar 1995 22:09:27 -0500 Subject: a message from JERRY This is a message Jerry handed me today and asked me to post: It is regarding the Web page Lyrics:--------C.G. >From this point on it is Jerry talking: Although I did not proof these....I will !!

Date: Thu, 16 Mar 95 08:51:00 est Hullo again.... What's up? Not much here (i.e. I haven't gone anywhere in two days) but I'm making plans for the Danzig tour (again). Decided against Red Bank NJ once I found out the place is reserved seating which sucks, so instead I'm heading to Columbus, OH on 4/18 for my first foray this tour - I remember SOMEBODY from this list wrote me to ask if I'd be going there & now I can't find their e-mail (sorry... I get a LOT of it) so if it's you let me know! But I got my tickets for the Newport already ; the other east coast shows haven't gone on sale yet but I keep checking. Would love to meet up with anybody who's going to ones I'll be at!! (all from Wilkes Barre to Orlando plus the Columbus one) And please folks, stop e-mailing me wanting backstage passes! Most of the time I'm not there anyway & Glenn seldom hangs there after the show - if you want to meet him, 95% of the time he showers, changes & heads RIGHT out to the tour bus where he will sit in the front and sign everybody's stuff (just don't insult him by bringing any bootlegged crap) The only time this doesn't happen is when the cops are total assholes and won't let anybody stay
