A postcard was sent out a few weeks ago to fiends in some of the southeast

summer.  That's about all that's happening at the moment.

Sessions discc - everything from '79 and the MSP stuff.  Some of the MSP
stuff also has Doyle overdubbing from '81.

She, Spinal Remains and Eagles all had overdubs.  Halloween is pretty
much true to the original MSP version.

She and Spinal Remains *should* sound like the Static Age stuff, but doens't
because of the overdubs.  Eagles should sound like the first version of
Eagles on the Sessions Disc.  I don't think that Glenn added overdubs
to Halloween, but I know that Doyle did back in '81.  American Nightmare
may or may not be okay, since Glenn played guitar on the original in the
first place.

I disagree with you.  This is not a problem, and you are choosing a poor 
way of defining who is an active member.  I think that anyone who reads 
this bible is an active member.  Personally, I'd rather read short, but 
substantive, bibles than long, rambling bibles.

From: andy van langen 

I will most likely be controversial here, but I rather like the Metallica
version of Last Caress. Everything just seems to go together well
musically on that version. But Gleenzig is the one to beat when it comes
to Green Hell. Does anyone think that "going down to die" on 4p is a good
song besides me? My girlfriend's kinda goth and it's a great slow dance
song;)

Denmother Patricia: Are you sure its iggy pop singing in thoseNike ads? I
heard the Red Hot Chili Posers version on the Beavis and Butt-head
Experience and it was...uh huh huh...pretty cool. I couldnt tell the
difference.

Does any1 know how to make their bass guitar "talk" a la Gene Simons of
Kiss? How do I tune it down or distort it?

AZ: What shows have you  taken in recently in the valley? The skinheads
havent come out a lot recently ex. for the Fits show. Also, in your note
to Goatfit, you said something about the Brighton Bar. Is that also
called Brighton Beach? I have a Type O Negative CD that was recorded
live from there. And do you know when lollapalooza is coming to the
Allentown Fairgrounds? I'm afraid I don't remember the Follow Fashion
Monkeys...I'm too young.

No it's not. I said I want to wait until I KNOW I can go and judge them
with just one thing in mind - THE MUSIC. I'm being honest. Sorry you

NO ! But as I HONESTLY (which I guess is a concept you might not
understand or appreciate) said, It would most likely cloud my judgement
to try to be objective about the music, while I'm thinking about which
part of their stage set was paid for with my money.

Glenn came to one or two shows back in '81. Both CHUD and MICHALE have
opened for THE UNDEAD. If you read the CHILLER interview; Jerry said
that he'd like THE UNDEAD to open for the FITS.

Subject: Misfits Videos--I have some

Fiends,

I've seen a few posts lately from people looking for Misfit's videos. 
I am willing to make copies of what I have.

I have the following:

Stone Pony "new" (75 minutes)--looks and sounds great!
Creepy Compilation (very long--not exactly sure--but maybe 2 
hours--if I'm wrong tell me)
Bethleham (36 minutes)

Will soon be receiving, via Chris (ChristoTer):

Skulls and Halloween Promos
Eagles Lodge (13 minutes)
Bookies (27 minutes)
Coney Island (29 minutes)

Here's the deal: each tape will be $10.00 (That covers the cost for 
the tape and shipping and handling in the USA).  Specify what shows you 
want on the tape (look at the times and realize (SP) is the best 
quality--I not only recommend this, but will only tape at this speed because 
Misfit's videos are not known for their quality, and I dont want people sending 
me nasty e-mail messages about how they cannot see what's on the tape).  
E-mail me what you want and your address.  And send a check for $10.00--I 
won't send anything out before I get the check, and you can ask some of the 
people on IRC (Andykryst, D-rod, etc..) and they'll tell you that I'm good for it.  
If you make contact with me I will get the tape(s) out to you.

Also:  Trades will definately be considered

i was flipping through  entertainment weekly today and it had a picture 
and little blurb about the box set: UNDERTAKERS OF THE WEEK THE MISFITS
	Glenn Danzig's death-punk outfit have interred their entire catalog
	in a 6[.5]" x 12" casket called ^Box Set^. Guess that's the last nail
	in ^their^ coffin, eh?
hmm i bet that's exactly what glenn would like to think. a while ago, 
like 2-3 years they also had another little blurb about when danzig was 
on tour in europe w/ def leppard and a guy from def leppard suposidly 
punched him in the face and he just walked away and locked himself in his 
trailer... i belive the header was called wuss of the week or something...
	i tried to order uneasy listening this week the idiots at the 
local indy record store denied its existance, could someone who has it 
post the product number so i can shove it down their throats?
	i have the casette version from ROIR that i got a long time ago 
(3-4 years) its not really worth buying on cd, just order dawn of the 
undead direct from bobby... its cheaper has more undead songs and maybe 
he'll shut up about money for an issue:)
	does anyone know if glenn will put out another collection of 
video's for danzig III, IV, and V, i kind of liked the first 2, plus the 
HtGK video... and i'd like to have can't speak on tape, i thought that 
was an incredible video, he should have gotten an award from mtv instead 
of whatever crap won.
oh i never voted on a bible shirt because i didn't really like any of the

if you didn't like any of them why didn't you submit your own... i was 
trying to commision a friend to make one up, i have a pretty cool design 
in my head, but i suck at art. well if i ever get it done maybe i'll 
submit it to the calender or something....

That was Glenn's idea. I was in shock when he told me I had to do a SOLO.
I'd never had a real solo in a MISFITS songs before, so in true MISFITS
fashion - I ripped most of it off of COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN.

Okay. With just a quick glance at the box; everything from #3 to #14. #15
- 21 sounds like a mix of both me and either Uncle Glenny or Doyle.

I'm too busy to give it a listen right now, but I think you're right.
Actually, on EAGLES and Marilyn, you can still hear some of my guitar -
the leads and glissando's . . . I think he might've just did the rythm
tracks over. Those are pretty shitty mixes. You can barely hear Joey's
drums on them.

Subject: Jeet Kune Do and Getting the Misfits on stage faster

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>FROM THE FORBIDDEN ZONE<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Fiends,
	It is hot as fuck here.  If you live in a place where the 
temperature is below the century mark and your cooler does not blow fire, 
FUCKING REJOICE!!!

Miss Fit:  I used to be a big fan of Henry Garfield (aka Rollins, or 
Denmom's favorite, Bullethead).  I still dig his music, but don't respect 
him as much as I used to.  
	Anyway, I USED to think he'd whoop Glenn's short self, but NO 
MORE!!  Sister, I have seen the LIGHT!!!  (Or darkness if you happen to 
be coughing cool).  Anyway, Glennn may be short (but who am I to talk?), 
but he seems to be pretty strong.  Albeit, Rollins has a big neck and is 
also kinda bulky... However, Glenn also trains in the way of the Little 
Dragon (Bruce Lee)-- Jeet Kune Do.  As I understand it, he also has some 
kickboxing experience.  All Glennard would have to do is maybe throw a 
foot jab, step in with a jab to the bridge of the nose, throw an elbow to 
the temple, 
maybe get in a few body blows, and when he was doubled over, start in on 
throwing some knees.  
	Glenn's got a lower center of gravity on his side, plus Rollins 
has a weak right wrist.  
	If you really want to know, I'm sure with all the pull our fellow 
fiends have, we could arrange a bout through Don King or something.  
Hell, DENMOM ALONE would just have to antagonize Rollins with a few 
Bullethead comments and throw in a few bad memories from the DC days, then 
call Glenn and tell him how great his butt looks and ask for a re-match 
in Risk...things would start movin'.  And as I understand it, Denmom's 
great pals with Don King.  They share the same taste in cars, right Mom? 
:)  

OK, and for all of you who aren't digging the line-up for the Misfits 
show:
	A team of crack (-smoking) research scientists has come up with a 
solution to the problem after hours of research.
	It seems that some members of bands the 'Fits are touring with do 
not like objects projected at them while playing and storm off the stage 
in a huff if such actions occur.  ("I'm not gonna play with you 
anymore!!!  I'm telling my MOM!!!!")  So, the researchers have suggested 
bringing projectiles with you to your respective shows, namely hand 
grenades.  I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult to acquire some shells 
of vintage M26 baseball grenades.  The researchers say that all ya have 
to do is fill 'em with your own juice.  
	Now, the researchers also suggest that you don't just throw these 
projectiles, but actually strap them to your bodies Hezbollah-style and 
charge the stage.  This would also help to take out some of those pesky, 
meanie bouncers!  JIHAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

		All is well in the desert hell,

Subject: San Diego Comic Con

I just got back from the San Diego Comic Con and it was great.  I've gone to
lots of conventions before but this had to be the most mammoth of them all.
 There is no way you could see everything the convention had to offer in only
one day (which is why I decided to go for two days instead of my originally
planned one).  The highlight of the show for me was the Verotik table (one of
the main reasons I went in the first place).  Contrary to what was posted
here and on Eerie's hot line, Glenn was there for the first day of the
convention (July 4th) but not the second (July 5th).  If he was there the
last two days I have no idea.  I'm glad I brought all of my records and
Verotik comics to get signed by him because he signed everything I had.  I
put down a bunch of records and asked if he would sign a few.  He said yes as
long as they weren't bootlegs.  I only intended on having him sign a few and
then come back for the rest but he signed them all.  Every single one.  Even
Misfits ones (he apparently has no problem signing Misfits records (at least
the ones I brought with me)) that I had already had signed by Jerry and
Doyle.  Liam Sharp (artist of "GOTH"), Duke Mighten (artist of "Satanika"),
Eric Cannette (artist of "Igrat"), and Wingbird (artist of "Satanika X")
joined Glenn a little while later.  They too signed everything set in front
of them.  They even drew sketches for those who asked (me included).  All
five of them were great and would happily talk and joke with you if you asked
them a question.  As I said before, I got all the comics I brought with me
signed.  They didn't limit you to just one autograph per person as many of
the big names did (like Todd McFarlane who limited his line of signers to
maybe 50).  New items to be had were ...

* an "Igrat" model made after Eric Cannette's renderings
* a "Special Inquisitor" Super-D model (a character from "Satanika"
* a "Jaguar God" model made after Simon Bisley's drawings from "Jaguar God"
#0 (this is the biggest and, in my opinion, the best model Verotik has put
out so far)
* "Venus Domina" #1 (a new series about a hellish domnatrix)
* "Venus Domina" San Diego Comic Con Special edition with art done by
Wingbird
* The Eric Cannette sketchbook
* The Wingbird Special Edition

Anyway, that's about it.  The show as a whole was great but the Verotik table
was the highlight for me.  I'm definitely going to try to go back next summer
to see who Glenn will have as his special guests.  Before I go, I have to
mention that they had on display sketches of character designs from the
upcoming "Satanika" OVA.  It looks good.  Anyway, that's about it ...

have been partaking of the IRC and except for a few, (you know who you
are.....)i tend to be pretty bored with it. Lets try and jump on it more.
Then the folks who go on it now won't have to listen to all that
bullshitting between me and the Crimson King if more people are in on the
deal. so comeon you all I am a denmother for crissake, not a cheerleader,
I'm in this to act immature, not be some kinda spiritmonger. I got into
this whole fiend thing because i dug the energy, not the apathy.  apathy
is for hippies. and never trust a hippie! thats's what Gigantor, the
R&RSwindle fan tells me (inbetween announcing that we are one dirty ape
and digging on the grisly --or is it grizzly? as in bear?--buttfeast!

great! hope you are sub'd to the Op Man, I am gonna write a lot about
the 'monies in the future. A great American resource. I am gonna be
devastated when they finally retire. A part of my life will be over.
I know how those  idiot Deadheads felt when Jerry G. died now...
also I am willing to approach Matt Groening with a petition. I will start
working on one now. Everyone send me a post card with WE WANT THE MISFITS
on THE SIMPSONS!!!!! on it and I will forward em to Matt G/Bongo Comix.
okay? email me for details...

and Tammy, what about a special Flame Mark Issue? which one do you
think would be best? How about issue...uh...276 cause thats 138x2?
or we could figure out what FLAME MARK is in numerology, or measure
our genitals divided by our bra size x our IQ's, and so forth...;

Thanks to the new fiends who are offering pix for the calendar, as always
special thanks to Keith 138 (!) who is the most talented and enthusiastic
fiend I know.  hats off to all the tshirt art guys and if any of you
want to submit art, get hopping frogbutt!
and oh yeah, F--- HENRY!

and in a moment of passion.....

I would believe Mr. Graves would have to handle his devilock as a "fine

Subject: Free Zines

Wanna get a free copy of my swell zine, Cheapskate? I figured you 
might. It's really easy. The first five people to guess what my 
favorite Misfits song is get one. I'll even give you a clue. My all 
time favorite Misfits song is on the Sessions Disc (That's Disc 3) of 
the boxed set. Inside the zine, there's a chance to win more Misfits 
stuff, but the contest is really easy for most fiends. So if you want 
a FREE zine, just send your guess along with your address to 
phgj92b@prodigy.com I'll let you know if you're a winner by Friday...

Subject: They are going nuts...

Good Morning Fiends -

well most of you are probably reading this early Monday morning, i wouldn't
know cause i'm sitting infront of a computer at this point of the morning
and it does not have any internet access.  Bobby think of it a Paintbox
with access to the internet, everyone should have a $200,000 computer to
answer their e-mail.

First off we are getting closer to August which means we are getting closer
to our very own t-shirt and i hope you guys read this carefully cause i'm
getting letters left and right about it *YOU CAN, YES CAN ORDER MORE THAN
ONE SHIRT.  I KNOW T-SHIRTS GET WORN AND TORN(ESPECIALLY AT SHOWS) SO YOU
WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A BACK UP.  NO PROBLEM, I HAVE SPOKEN TO A LOT OF BIBLE
MEMBERS THAT INTEND TO HAVE TWO FOR THAT REASON AND I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH
THAT.*  Also to all bible members you will all get a chance to order, i
will make the ordering time very long so everyone gets in.  I'm so excited
and if you talk to Mark he is too.  This is going to be a killer t-shirt
and from some of your letter i can tell that you guys can't wait, neither
can i.

Next, after some searching around Miami i did find a copy of Uneasy
Listening and i have to say its truely incredible.  IF you are a true
horror kid this is for you.  After 24 years of watching horror movies i
have to say the music that Eerie and Mike have created is the pure essence
of horror.  My fave track has to be Misery's Drag, though i really like
Nightmare too which you can hear on Eerie and Mary's answering machine.
This is something you need to go out and get if you can't find it Mary gave
me the order # for that CD: Caroline Records/CAR 7531.  Just get your local
record store to order it for you.

Other news, well once i get the details organized with Bobby we will
actually have a special Flaming Mark Bible issue.  There will be a contest
involved and your one major chance to Flame Mark.  So watch the bible for
details and how long you have to send in your flames.

Now it's time for me to look for my pillow and the sandman, and hopefully
some people and you know who you are didn't jinx me with their week long
insomnia.
later to all the little bible fiendies.

Who's playing on the Collection I versions of Vampira, Skulls, AstroZombies, NOTLD, and I Turned into a Martian? The reason I'm asking all these goofy questions is that after listening to the Box Set new stuff [Static Age, Sessions] I got used to them. Anyway, I got the tape player in my car working again and of course have Collection I on tape. It's like the vocals are a deja vu, but the instrumentation is terrible. What gives? Also, have you noticed that the "re-mastering" of Collection I is just as terrible? Play "Hollywood Babylon" from record or from Static Age CD and then play the "reworked" one from the Box Set (Disc1) It sounds like the gain is pushed way too far up on the vocals. (Kind of like the drums on Last Caress of Collection II).

Hmmm, i guess its your opinion, but i love the real raw sound of the original. it has the in your face overdriven guitar garage tone that metallica could never get cause they spend too much money on their equipment! Dont get me wrong, their version kicks ass, and I hope they play it when I see them Wed a Lollapaloser, but to me, the original version, as well as all the songs on Beware, have an awesome almost gut wrenching sound to them that nobody comes close too.

I saw this stupid move on HBO. It was pretty dumb but that stoner kid did have a Danzig poster in his room along with a lot of other assorted rock posters. Also, I havn't really been listening to the Misfits that long. One of my friends put in Legacy Of Brutality once while we were driving around one night and I was hooked. Been litening to them ever since. They are almost all I listen to (besides the Melvins) at school. I just wanted to say the Misfits rock. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 9 Jul 1996 17:38:17 -0400 (EDT) From: Denmother PRH Subject: simpsons vs misfits: who will win? hello you all! from the land of nod....... > Subject: Revelations 6:2-9 > From: andy van langen > > to Green Hell.

Also, I noticed too that Entertainment Weekly seems to have something of a chubby re: Glenzig. Which is funny, because right after 4p came out they couldnt kiss it hard enough! Methinks someone may have had a difference of viewpoint with the extremely dogmatic Herr Glenzig. Just a vibe I get from that particular rag. and to all who are asking me about the Simpsons Petition, CG and I are working up some ideas. Please keep emailing me your positive remarks about it and we wont let it die. Watch the skies. I think it could happen.

Well didnt we have this debate before? I would Imagine that the song originally had a more distinc bass in it, and maybe slightly different vocals. I am sure it probably has that funny vocal sound all the original Plan 9 trax for WAU had. It is probably the same deal as static age. To DATSKAT: I will be at the august 3rd show, send me some mail well hook up. Also the original arguement about who would win in a fight between Hank and Glenn was here around issue 20! Funny how things go in cycles. And chris Ternes is very reputable I stake my name on his credentials. Why bother to have a flame Mark issue ? I mean if you want to flame Mark or have sumthin to say to him, no one is stopping you! But a flame mark issue sort of defeats the purpose of a flame, cuz in a way we would be paying an honor to flaming him just by having this, thus all the power of the flame will be lost. later D-Rod ------------------------------ From: Drslfin@aol.com Date: Wed, 10 Jul 1996 00:00:29 -0400 Subject: mars attacks....

Subject: Time to Rip, Rend and Tear... Hello to all my fave Fiendies - It seems that one of you is not to pleased with the bitter truth i pointed out back in Bible Issue # 200, though this is not the first time i said what i had to say on that issue. If you read the issue after the Get to know you issue i think i said the same stuff. But to clear this up it's time to address the point i'm making and to whom it is directed to. This it to Robert Brustman - 1) Obviously he disagrees with me about something and could it be the lazy and sloth type Bible Members that feel that we the active members need to entertain them in short and to the point information. Though it seems you are one of those people. Shit you were not in the get to know you, or the birthday calendar run(that means you won't be in the calendar either doesn't it) and you didn't vote for any t-shirt design. 2) Well i don't need to define Active or Member the Crimson Ghost did that for me, and thank you dear it's nice to know that the Active Members back me on this one. 3) My poor poor words, well let's see 78 voted and 778 are members that is 10% which i guess they didn't teach you very well in school. That means only 10% of the Bible Members are true active members who want to be part of the events that go on in this forum. That also means that you, yes you Robert and the other bunch that make up the 90% OF FUCKING LAZY ASSES WHO SEEM TO BELIEVE THIS IS A SERVICE FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE. NO ONE ASKED ME HERE, I FOUND IT MYSELF, NO ONE ASKED ME TO POST, I WENT IN ON MY OWN, NO ONE JUST HANDED ME THE LAST SPOT ON THE PAGE I'M JUST THE LAST ONE TO REACH MARK BEFORE HE SENDS OUT THE BIBLE. SO AS I SEE IT I AM AN ACTIVE MEMBER OF THE BIBLE AND YOU ARE NOT. or do you think you have the balls to say you are active: Who is an active member, i can think of a few - Mark is to obvious, Denmother Patricia, Crimson Ghost, Greg Petre( obvious again he won the design contest you know or probably you past it by, i forgot your not an active member) Bile666, D-Rod, can't forget Bobby Steele he was in the Misfits, one of their guitarists or did you know that probably not again, Ben Todd, AZ, Keith138, John Grimm and i could go on and on and on(no one get pissed if i didn't list you it's just a point i'm making). 4) Anyone who reads the bible is active!?! Amazing, i thought you had to participate in an activity to be active, shit where is that dictionary. I guess i'm loosing it. Though i doubt it very highly, if i still can master three different computer platforms at work all at the same time i think my brain should be intact. 5) Reading short and to the point, well i guess you didn't like all the posts about the Misfits shows, boy were they long and i read a lot of them too, shit i posted one of them didn't i. 6) There is more to what? What am i talking about? Who am i? What can i say, THERE IS MORE TO SITTING ON YOU ASS IN FRONT OF A COMPUTER THREE TIMES A WEEK JUST READING. BUT I GUESS YOU DON'T INTERACT WITH ANY OF THE OTHER ACTIVE MEMBERS. What am i taking about, well it is more than reading as you can tell from the post, most active members post, if they don't post and i know several of them. They participate in the get to know you deal, voting for the design, giving ideas for what they wanted the design to look like, sending in their birthdays for the calendar and probably will send in their Flame of Mark for the upcoming Flaming Mark Special Issue. Who am i, well if you read the get to know you issue you would know who i am. If you mean who am i to say word one, well being that i get talked into running things cause i open my mouth and say something to Mark when we talk inbetween bible issues. I guess it makes me sick that only 10% of us can make an effort to interact with each other, participate in the activities, and meet each other for the shows and other reasons. Well i can also say and probably be right on the money that the same 10% were the ones who got to meet the Misfits during the shows they were at. well that is a lot to say and what a long post it was. so i'm loud, so i'm that purely fiendish social director on this wacked out cruise shipping bible, so i'm like an Evil Cheerleader( i didn't take it the wrong way CG, i couldn't stop laughing when i read it) screaming in your eyes to get you all moving and participating. Am i lazy, NO, that's fucking obvious - the collection i have didn't come like manna from heaven when i read MRR, flipside or any other mag, meeting Glenn, Eerie, Chuck, and John - first time was a given the others were all my own get up and go ( i was almost arrested the second time for not having a pass, though Glenn didn't care he was more interested in talking and seeing the neat stuff i had) . Then Jerry, Doyle, Michale and Chud - ask anyone at the MiamiBeach before the show and how they just watched in the pouring rain as i just marched myself into the club, no one stopped me, Jerry was waiting for me as the older crew guy with the beard pointed out(shit so i couldn't find the guys on miles of sand and ocean after the sound check which i missed.) though the point is and the whole post is that i am an Active Member of the bible and you are not. Now to better and brighter things. The Flaming Mark Special Issue will start with all the details, that i promise if i don't have to deal with this Hurricane, will be posted in Mondays Bible. There are going to be some killer prizes for the best Flames and some of you i'm sure have been waiting for this chance to finally flame the man who put this whole Bible together. So don't forget and there won't be a bunch of extensions this time get it!!! The T-shirt is going fine and Greg is hard at work on refining his drawing. well i'm tired out a bit, waking up at 5am every morning for work is rough even laced with lots of caffeine. Hope you guys have found the Uneasy Listening CD this is one you can't miss out on!!! Later to all the Little Active Fiendies!?!

I think that anyone who reads >this bible is an active member. Personally, I'd rather read short, but >substantive, bibles than long, rambling bibles. Webster's Says: Active: adj L, activus, fr, adgere, to act 1. Communicating or causing action or change; as, ^active^ powers of the mind..... 5. Requiring or implying action or exertion. I believe that Tammy is right on the money with her definition of whom is active or not. *you* sum it up quite nicely when you state: "Personally, I'd rather read short, but substantive, bibles than long, rambling bibles." The key word you use is "you would rather read" *YOU* are not an active participant you are a "Passive Participant." Again I'll lean on my trusty New Collegiate (1953 edition): SHIT it doesn't have WYSIWYG!! Passive: adj OF, passif, L, passivus 1. Not active, but acted upon; affected by outside force or agency. 2. Receiving or enduring without resistance or emotional reaction; submissive; patient. Member: L, membrum 4. A part of a whole; an independent constituent of a body, structure, or any organized thing. Can you argue with fact? I doubt it. This is a discussion group *not* an information counter. Should *you* choose not to enter into the discussions, and just read the content, you are a passive member, *not* an active member. As much as I disagree with Tammy's style of doing things; ie: the cheerleader approach, making sure her post is dead last, begging, etc... I understand what she is trying to do. There are entirely too many of you out there that just sit and read this fucker without ever saying anything. Then you complain when things don't seem to be going your way. Too fucking bad, this list is what *you* make it. Don't complain about what's being said if you choose not to contribute. There's nothing wrong with sitting back and reading it, but if that's all you do, you have no right at all to piss & moan about it. A personal exchange between Denmom and myself: >From: Denmother PRH >To: Crimson Ghost >Subject: Re: new bible post > >the main point was that nobody voted on the Tshirt and >nobody seems to want to get involved in things like the >Get to Know You issue and the birthdays etc. Things that >require little effort on the part of the subscriber, it >only needed the minimum of effort. >ie:email TES777@bridge.net and say "i vote for Ben or somebody else" > >big effort huh? >man I am exhausted, and may have to go take a nap now! >This group does little if anything to participate. I wonder >how many even read the fucking thing? >or do they just get it emailed to em so they can say "oh wow >i got new mail" >fuckem. As far as I am concerned, this Bible has only 78 members. >thats what I think. What do you think? Well, personally that's some of the problem. I think alot of people are too cool, too punk to get involved in such *queer* things. They think that by being apathetic they are embodying some ridiculous spirit of Anarchy or some other nonsensical idea. Fuck you, you ain't punks, all your doing is weighting us down. These people that never post and do nothing but complain when they do are what's fucking up this list. I tend to agree with Denmom this list has got Exactly 78 members. We are 138...pfftt. my ass. it's more like: We are only 78! gimme a fucking break, I remember when it was a big deal that we had hit 138 subscribers. now we have almost 6 times that amount and it's 6 times as retarded. Get up off your lazy asses and post something. Tell a story about how the band changed your life or something, have some passion about something. Don't just sit there being punker-than-fuck. I don't think that anybody has a right to complain in their very first post, I find this whole notion ludicrous, at least add something interesting before you decide to complain. btw: Robert Brustman, if that wasn't your first post, I stand corrected you may ignore everything except the definitions, there are plenty of other people on here that this pertains to. til next. peace, cg ~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~ "Do you remember lying in bed... with the covers pulled up over your head radio playin' so no one can see...?"

Recording sessions often took place over many months, with long breaks in between. Very few records were kept, and it is very possible that tapes were lost, stolen, or accidentally disposed of. Misfits recording sessions were usually recorded "live in the studio" onto multi-track tape. A multi-track tape is a 2 inch tape that plays in only one direction and has a certain number of tracks or channels. Most Misfits sessions were recorded on 8 or 16 track tapes. The multi-track tapes include everything recorded during the session, from talking in between songs to alternate takes of the songs with mistakes. The best takes of the selected songs are then mixed and transferred to a 1/4 inch master tape. This tape, in turn, can be mastered (by adusting the high or low end, for instance). A song from one multi-track tape may often be transferred to another tape to re-record certain tracks; in the case of The Misfits, several different mixes of a song may be identical except for a slight variation in the drum or vocal track. The following section lists all recording sessions and the songs they produced that have been distributed legally or on bootlegs. Each entry includes the song title, playing time, album of release, and any known information about the session. Alternate mixes are listed whenever possible. The * symbol denotes remixes or re-recordings of songs from an earlier session tape that were transferred to another tape. ______________________________________________________________________________ Album Chart ----------- CC = Cough/Cool 7" B = Bullet 7" TFM = Teenagers From Mars 7" HB = Horror Business 7" NOTLD = Night Of The Living Dead 7" BW = Beware 12" 3HFH = 3 Hits From Hell 7" H = Halloween 7" WAU = Walk Among Us EADW = Earth A.D./Wolfs Blood DDMD = Die, Die My Darling 12" LOB = Legacy Of Brutality M = Misfits EADCD = Earth A.D.

Glenn had changed the lyrics and the name of the song before the band went into the studio. Sometime around 1985, Glenn re-recorded the bass and guitar tracks for many of the songs (tracks 1b-2b, 4b-5b, 6b, 9b, 12b-13b, 17b) for release on LEGACY OF BRUTALITY. The original versions of tracks 4-17 are featured on the STATIC AGE album, the 4th CD of the MIFITS BOX SET. These tracks, listed here as 4a-17a, were taken from Franche' Coma's copy of the studio mixing tape. Previous releases of these tracks, such as TEENAGERS FROM MARS, BULLET, BEWARE, and COLLECTION II, had come from Glenn Danzig's master. Hence, slight differences between the versions can be observed. The STATIC AGE versions of "Bullet" and "Some Kinda Hate" leave off the "1, 2, 3, 4!" introduction, and the second guitar track during the guitar solo in "We Are 138" is more prominent. The date listing for "She" on the LEGACY OF BRUTALITY sleeve is incorrect. _____________________________________________________________________________ 1/26/79: C.I.

Producer Robbie Alter also played guitar on two songs. One of the mixes of "Skulls" that came from this tape has a fade-out ending, whereas the other comes to a stop. The original mix of "Halloween II" features a chorus taken from "Halloween" added to the end. Before being released on the HALLOWEEN 7", a different drum track was recorded and the guitar work was credited to Doyle, although Bobby's slide guitar was preserved entirely. The original mix of "Halloween" was included on LEGACY OF BRUTALITY. Parts of it were later re-recorded for release on the HALLOWEEN single. Time differences for some of these different mixes can also be attributed to varying tape speeds. _____________________________________________________________________________ 6/81: Unknown studio; Fair Lawn, NJ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1 20 Eyes 2:01 2 I Turned Into A Martian 1:49 (part of song is cut) 3 Astro Zombies 2:05 4 Nike A Go Go 2:37 5 All Hell Breaks Loose 1:39 6 Devils Whorehouse 1:46 7 American Nightmare 1:42 LOB, BOX2 Format: 16 Track tape Lineup: [6] (Tracks 1-6) [6] + Glenn Danzig (instead of Doyle): Guitar (Track 7) Notes: Tracks 3-6 have been widely distributed on bootlegs such as A WALK AMONG THE DEAD. "20 Eyes" is extremely similar to the Reel Platinum version but has a simpler drum beat, a different guitar strumming style, and a slightly different vocal track. "I Turned Into A Martian" includes a different vocal track and a variant guitar solo, as well as a slightly different ending. "Astro Zombies" has a simpler drum track and a prominent extra vocal track. "Devils Whorehouse" has an extra vocal track in the background and slightly different music. These songs are slower than later takes and include much guitar feedback. _____________________________________________________________________________ 8/81: Reel Platinum; Lodi, NJ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1 20 Eyes 2:07 BOX3 2 I Turned Into A Martian 1:57 BSS, BOX3 3 Astro Zombies 2:13 WAU, BOX3 4a Vampira 1:19 BOX3 4b 1:26 5 Devils Whorehouse 1:44 BOX3 Format: 16 Track tape Lineup: [6] Notes: This take of "Devils Whorehouse" was transferred to other tapes and remixed for release on WALK AMONG US and later for COLLECTION II.

"Violent World" originally appeared on the MSP tape and a different mix of this version of "20 Eyes" appeared on WALK AMONG US. These remixes were originally planned for release on the MISFITS compilation album, but dropped for unknown reasons. A preliminary track listing for the album can been seen in the MISFITS BOX SET booklet on the first pages of Eerie Von's liner notes. _____________________________________________________________________________ 1983: ~~~~~ 1 Die Die My Darling 3:07 DDMD, EAD, BSS, BOX1 Format: 16 Track tape Lineup: [7] Notes: This track was not recorded with the rest of the EARTH A.D. session tracks. _____________________________________________________________________________ 6/11/83: Warehouse; Santa Monica, CA - 7/83: Fox Studio; Rutherford, NJ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1 Earth A.D. 2:08 (instrumental) 1b 2:08 EADW, M, EAD, BOX2 2a We Bite 1:14 2b 1:14 DDMD, EAD 2c 1:13 C2, BOX1 3a Demonomania 0:43 3b 0:43 EADW, EAD, BOX2 3c 0:43 C2 4a Wolfs Blood 1:11 (instrumental) 4b 1:11 EADW, M, EAD, BOX2 5a Queen Wasp 1:30 (instrumental) 5b 1:30 EADW, EAD, BSS, BOX2 5c 1:31 C2 6a Devilock 1:25 6b 1:25 EADW, M, EAD, BOX2 7a Mommy, Can I Go Out And Kill Tonight? 1:59 (instrumental) 7b 1:58 DDMD, BOX1 7c 1:59 M, EADCD Format: 16 Track tape Lineup: [7] Notes: The EARTH AD recording session began at a warehouse during the very early hours of June 11, 1983. Glenn slept through most of the session, providing complete vocals on only 3 of the songs. The original recording of the session (track 1a-6a) includes slightly different lyrics on some of the songs. The rest of the vocals and instrumentation were added by the band a month later at Fox Studio. The extended version of "Mommy, Can I Go Out And Kill Tonight?" has an extra second of feedback at the end. The COLLECTION II versions of these tracks were remastered. The MISFITS BOX SET versions of these tracks were also remastered from a different tape. _____________________________________________________________________________ 7/83: Fox Studio; Rutherford, NJ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1 Death Comes Ripping 1:53 EADW, M, EAD, BOX2 2 Green Hell 1:52 EADW, M, EAD, BOX2 3a Bloodfeast 2:28 EADW, EAD, BSS, BOX2 3b 2:31 C2 4a Hellhound 1:13 EADW, EAD 4b 1:13 C2 Format: 16 Track tape Lineup: [7] Notes: The COLLECTION II versions of these songs were remastered.

Glenn re-recorded the vocals for "Cough/Cool" and added a guitar track, a new bass track, and an extra drum track using a drum machine. Part of the original drum track is preserved at the beginning of this re-recording. The majority of the instrumental tracks for "Devils Whorehouse" came from the Reel Platinum session. The drum track to "Nike A Go Go" was taken from the Mix-O-Lydian version. Glenn had originally planned to release COLLECTION II in 1987 (as shown in a Plan 9 merchandise listing from that year), so these tracks were probably recorded in June of 1987, around the time that he re-recorded parts of Samhain's UNHOLY PASSION release. _____________________________________________________________________________ 5/16/96 - 5/18/96: Trax East; South River, NJ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1 Mars Attacks 2:10 2 The Hunger 1:52 3 Blacklight 1:37 4 The Haunting 1:37 5 Dead King's Rise 3:09 6 Talons of Steel 7 Dr. Phibes Rises Again Format: 24 Track tape Lineup: [10] Notes: The Misfits recorded the instrumental tracks for these songs on May 16, recorded the vocals on May 17, and mixed the songs on May 18.

I simply feel no need to post facts like, last week I saw a 30-something Harley biker wearing a misfits T, or at yesterday's Lollapalooza concert in Vermont I saw several misfits Ts.

But otherwise I don't have anything Misfits related to talk about.

My E-Mail's been down for a week or so, and THIS is what I get treated to when I come back? I tell ya, I've sat through discussions of Nazi Germany, why IRC does/doesn't suck, and who knows how many other stupid discussions, but now I have to say this list has finally degerated into one of the biggest wads of crap to come through my mailbox. So the latest debate is "active/passive member", huh? Who GIVES a rat's ass???! I mean, thank god for the so-called "active members" who come through with the latest discussions of chicken wings and what was the last movie they saw a Danzig shirt in...right?? Hasn't anybody considered that 90% of the subscribers to the list remain silent, not because they're "lazy", but because they have a FUCKING LIFE???!!! Frankly, I don't want to be a member of your social club. I'm not all that interested in your ballots or your tea parties or whatever it is, or having my birthday announced to the list. Patricia is not my goddamn "den mother". That stopped being cute a while ago and now between her and TES777 it's just a plain ol' self-righteous pain-in-the-ass. Yup, the ONLY reason I'm on this list is for information, and if I'm not posting questions every week it's because the Misfits aren't really on my mind six days out of seven... which is not to say that I don't enjoy it when somebody has a reasonable inquiry and someone else (usually Mark) has a competent answer! What is more, I actually enjoyed this list best when Bobby Steele first joined in, because there was actually something interesting to debate about!! Yep, I flamed the fuck out of him, and I'm still not a "fan", but I'd rather hear most anything he has to say on the subject of the Misfits than another debate on when the next Official Misfits Bible Cookie Sale is going to be, and who'll be invited! The way you guys carry on, anybody who just joined the list would think the subject of the Misfits was dead in the water, when in reality they're a living, touring band. Apparently there's nothing more to talk about, shall we pack it in? So it's to be "active" vs. "passive" members, eh? Well, we like voting around here: my vote is that you all shut the FUCK up, unless you have something WORTHWHILE to say about the Misfits. Then we'd see how many "active members" there are. Or, better idea! Why don't we just let this be a forum for people with a common interest to get together and exchange information and ideas, and all you would-be ringmasters, scout masters and emperors find another fucking sandbox, so the rest of us can go on about our business and talk (or NOT talk) about what we goddamn feel like!

Being a "newbie", I don't know how these introductions usually go, so let's start at the begining: I became aware of The Misfits back at the tender age of 15. Of course, The Misfits "broke-up" 6 years earlier, but I was quite found of the album titled "Danzig ][". Anyway, one of my friends told my that Danzig was comming to town and invited me to go see the concert with him. When I accepted, he told me there might be a "mosh pit". I said, "What the fuck are you talking about you fucking idiot!", or something to that affect, "I have that CD, there's nothing to mosh to." "Yeah, but they might do some Misfits songs" "Huh" "That guy was in a band before this one, it was called The Misfits" "Oh" The scene is a local suburban mall. The camera zooms in to reveal a typical 15-year-old "head-banger" (in the manditory jean-jacket w/ Megadeth backpatch) going through the tapes - the "M" section. After finding the cheapest Misfits tape, which happened to be Walk Among Us, I headed for my car. Popped the tape is and heard the peice of art known as 20 Eyes. Okay, 6 years later: No more jean jacket, no more long-greasy hair, but I've been listining to those guys the whole time. I recently went to the misfits/Anthrax tour (when it came to Baltimore - Hammerjacks has a great fucking sound system BTW --- when you can actually feel your eyeballs vibrate in your head, you can chalk it up as a good concert). And they proved that they don't need Danzig (or his ego) to front them. (In fact, they pulled some guy out of the audience to sing Mother... and he did pretty good, except for not knowing the words). last weekend I bought the box-set (no more tapes for me) and ever since then, 4 of the 6 slots in my CD-changer have been well used. BTW, they always record those Hammerjack shows -- any Baltimorons out there know I can get a hold of those tapes???? Oh, one more thing -- to all of you who want all 780-odd people to be "active"; trust me, you don't. If you pressure people into posting something just for the sake of posting, you'll get a bunch of shit (hmm, I think I just proved that). Anyway, just let the lurkers read the shit.. if they have something to say, they'll say it. As for the T-shirt and the calander, I don't what the fuck is going on. I'll try to look through some old issues and give you my thoughts though. But you can mark me down to buy one (or two) of those shirts.

Consider me ACTIVE NUMBER 79!!! OK... I'll start by introducing myself. My name is Ryan, I'm (almost) 17 (if it's not too late for the calendar, my b'day is July 20) and from CT. I've been subscribed to the Bible for little over a month. The reasoning for my absence is that I haven't had much time lately to read or post. ( I DID vote for the shirt,though I fear it may have been 1 day too late...but I made the effort.) I did manage to catch the Simpsons petition rap, and since it would bring together my favorite band and television show (...I'm sure we ALL know that television is the government's preferred method of mind control...ergo I watch as little as possible), I will back this to the fullest extent of my abilities. I know off the top of my head about 15 people who would sign this. I will try and promote it on my upcoming public access show and in the newspaper I occassionally write for (I included my review of the Misfits' Hartford, CT show which was done for the paper... it's a bit big, so I don't know if Mark will want to run it with this! It does include a brief interview with Michale, though!). Email me to get me involved, please!!! I was lucky enough to catch the Fits in May at Danbury's Subzero (RIP), and to have Rocky allow me not only to videotape, but also hook me up with an interview. The guys couldn't have been any kinder. My friend and I were allowed to hang out backstage with them for the majority of the evening, and they did their best to answer any question my friend or I threw at them. Michale kept insisting we take some of their soda, since it was "too much for them", and Chud even told us the "Doyle 8th Grade Graduation Story", which I'll post next Bible. As for taping the Fits, Kenny was VERY cool with me (maybe since I'm sorta in with tour manager Ken Kriete or the Public Access show). I approached him with camera in hand, expecting him to tell me "No way in hell", since the Fits have been so brutally bootlegged, but that was not at all the case. I have various people in the industry who will vouch for my "no-circulation" policy. He asked me to not air a certain part, and then gave me his address to send a copy to. I hooked up with Jaid from the Bible and went to see them June 29 in Hartford, again, camera in hand. Kenny remembered me, I gave him a copy of the Subzero show, and he hooked me up with the interview with Michale, allowed me to tape the whole show, and let Jaid and me hang out backstage for quite a while. Again, they were the nicest guys. Jerry remembered me, pulled out a chair for me, and gave me the patented JerryHug. I'm definitely going to the Action Park show, and hopefully the Asbury Park, Providence, and Boston shows. If anybody wants to hook up...email me! - Lycanthropie (formerly Fug-Ti) _______ at the Webster Theater, Hartford, Saturday, 6. 29. 96 Title of article: Misfits Resurrection of the Living Dead Hallelujia!!! Once again, they walk among us. For many fans ( "Fiends" ), the Resurrection Tour will be their first chance to see the legendary Misfits live - which, for me at least, is great since I was a toddler when they were active. They formed in early 1977, going through a series of drummers and guitarists until they "just went away" in 1983, upon singer/songwriter Glenn Danzig's departure - right at the pinnacle of their career . The only constants in the band were bassist Jerry Only and Glenn. In 1980, Jerry's younger brother Doyle joined the band at the age of 16, who has remained in the band since. While Danzig went on to widespread recognition, it seemed as though the remaining Misfits would never receive the attention they deserved. Jerry and Doyle are the two "original" Misfits ( the drummers all came down with Spinal Tap syndrome), and were nearly invisible during their thirteen year lull - though not of their own choice. According to the band, Jerry and Doyle always were the Misfits and always wanted to be the Misfits, but certain circumstances prevented Misfits activity. Legal obstacles (such as the question of just who held the title to the "Misfits" name) settled, their thirteen year lull ended upon their "Resurrection" last year, appropriately enough, on Halloween with a surprise appearance in the middle of a Type O Negative performance in New York City. Word spread like wildfire, as did the questions. Will Glenn be reuniting with them? How will they replace Glenn? Will time have mellowed them? Will they "sell out"? Are they in it for the money (Sex Pistols, anyone?)? Will they come across as something of a poor tribute band? What can we expect? According to Jerry, "The same thing as before, only better." I couldn't put it any better. And as far as Glenn returning? Contrary to some rumors, not anytime soon! Glenn seems to be anything but considerate concerning the new Misfits, going as far as overdubbing their tracks on the recent Misfits Collection II, and then not even subjecting it to their approval before its release. In fact, Jerry and Doyle approached Glenn amicably, asking him if he would like to reunite with the Misfits, only to have security guards remove them from the hotel where he was staying. To find a new vocalist, they didn't have to look too far. Michale Graves was introduced to the Misfits by local Lodi, NJ producer Bob Allecca. Prior to the suggestion that he audition for the "new" Misfits, he had absolutely no exposure to the band, though he says " I stole a Misfits T- shirt from my brother once - but I had no idea it was a Misfits shirt." And upon first hearing their music? " I went out and picked up the yellow CD (Collection I ), put it on the first song ( She ), listened to a few bars and said 'These guys suck.'. That was my first impression of them, swear to God." Just as interesting about Michale is his age ( 21 - the other members are into their thirties), which draws many comparisons to a young Glenn Danzig. Some critics say that his looks, stage movements, and voice are mirror images of Glenn. Michale can't see why. " I can't help the way I look. But I've looked at pictures and it's like...woah! And I don't know how he moved on stage, or anything like that. I've never watched any video footage- I kept away just for that purpose...I don't need to mimic anybody; what I do is what I do myself. As far as my voice, I can't control the way my voice sounds either. Singing the old songs- Glenn wrote the melody lines, and I'm singing his melody lines, so of course I'm gonna sound somewhat like him. That's the way he wrote it, and that's the way they that it was intended to be sung. So if i kinda sound like him, then I guess I'm doing my job half right." The new drummer is Dr. C.H.U.D. (Cannibalistic Humanoid Underground Drummer - an homage to the 1980s low budget horror flick, C.H.U.D.), who far surpasses all those who came before him in terms of drumming ability and vocal ability., In keeping with the local theme, he is from Lodi, and even graduated high school with Doyle. Concerning their performance last Saturday at Hartford's Webster Theater, they hit the stage with an intensity the likes of which we have not seen in the past thirteen years. As far as time mellowing them out, they've only become more aggressive. They hit the stage and all hell broke loose! Ripping through the first half of their set, the second part consisted entirely of audience requests. Michale would point to an audience member, who would scream out his/her favorite song title, and then be invited onstage to sing along. Highlights included Bullet, Nike A Go Go, and the massive sing-a-longs Skulls, and We Are 138. Michale had to keep telling the security morons to let us go up on stage, however they remained quite uncooperative- this being my only complaint about the show. Never before have I seen such band/audience interaction - proving that the Misfits are not only THE most powerful live act out there, but also the most audience-considerate. Opening for the Misfits were Death Metal monoliths Cannibal Corpse, who went on first - while the Webster was filling up. They are touring to support their new masterpiece, Vile, which features the debut of new singer George "CorpseGrinder" Fischer. While there is some criticism of his replacing Chris Barnes, I was pleased to see just how well he fit into the band. Such classics as "Skull Full Of Maggots" and "Hammer Smashed Face" were given a "new life", if you will. His vocal style is rather similar to that of Barnes, only with more clarity and ferocity. Seeing them live, it is quite obvious why Cannibal Corpse is at the forefront of the Death Metal genre, and has been there for over half a decade. Expect them to remain there for a while to come. Next up was old favorites Anthrax. Whether your favorite style is punk, hardcore, death or speed metal - chances are that you somewhere have ties to Anthrax. Though many thought the band would go belly-up with the departures of former vocalist Joey Belladonna and more recently, lead guitarist Dan Spitz, they are alive, well, and apparently have been eating their vitamins, because their performance was amazing. Anthrax' delivery of songs new and old was flawless, and extremely energetic. Rhythm guitarist Scott Ian had the potential to incite a riot when he took over vocals for a cover of "Protest and Survive". Their brand of Stomp was warmly welcomed by the crowd. Much like the Misfits and Cannibal Corpse, Anthrax' not-so-new-anymore vocalist John Bush provided a vocal delivery far superior to that of former vocalist Belladonna. - Ryan Adams sidenote: Cannibal Corpse plays the El N Gee in New London this Friday (today ) with Jungle Rot. other side note.

It all fits into the Christian trinity metaphor. Tammy is God the father, the God of the old testament... the God who will whip your ass in line, destroy the world by flood, cast down our golden calf-idols of non-participational "punkness." Mark is the Spirit, an ever-present supporting and sustaining force that is at the same time mysterious and removed. The Messiah is the Denmother/Chrimson Ghost Dialectic, on a divine mission of redemption (and punishment! -this is, after all, the MISFITS Bible), yet still down here with us, human and accessible. The Dialectic blurs the lines of male/female, hence transcending the duality of the conscious world, delving into the sublime and smashing the mask of God... or something. Sorry, I was possessed by the spirit of the late great Joseph Campbell. The true meaning of 138 has also been revealed to me... when the 138th Bible member to cite his or her theory on the meaning of 138 strikes the 138th key in this apocalyptic post, Glenn will return in his form as the Destroyer, four thousand feet in length and weighing many thousand tons, with 138 thousand rotating hands and 138 glass-eyed heads to stand in judgment (all those heads pretend to deliberate over the decision to make you feel like you're really getting a fair trial, but 137 of them are automated "dummy heads," and the verdict is invariably "KILL")... we are coming dangerously close... Here's another theory for you - maybe the reason Bobby talks about the money so much is that in every issue somebody tells him to shut up about it! So then, in every issue, he answers that guy, and some other guy reads it, and then posts "he's talking about that damn money again!" and then bobby answers that guy, and he tells two friends, and they tell two friends, and they tell two friends... can't wait for that "Flame Mark" issue... you have no idea of the heights of ridiculousness to which I am aspiring... things never attempted in post or flame... aon-1 ps there's this band the misfits, I like them (my post is now justified) ------------------------------ From: areygers@nexus.chapman.edu Date: Wed, 10 Jul 1996 19:53:36 -0700 Subject: HOLLYWOOD, CA...MY HOME (sort of) I just got the best news of my life.

If I'm wrong feel free to flame me. I've got a lot to say for once, so sit back. Okay, I've gotta admit it, but I think Tammy and CG were both right on active members. Now you might be thinking, "What's this guy talking about?! I've never seen him post." Well, I've posted a couple of times, and am making an effort to post more. Maybe this issue will be huge after the inspirational words of Tammy and CG. Who knows? Oh, and Crimson Ghost, good call on the punker-than-thou thing. And now, I have to agree even more. I'm offering free zines. I'm sure some of you don't like reading. That would really explain why you're on a mailing list. And I'm sure some of you don't like free stuff. If you don't like free stuff, there must be some reason why you aren't institutionalized, but I can't think of one. If nothing else, you could use my zine as kindling and heat your home. So just guess my favorite Misfits song, and you win. Easy. So far, the Denmother is the only winner. Now for those of you versed in bootlegs of live shows, (i.e. Mark) I've got a question. I recently picked up two bootlegged shows. One says recorded live in L.A. 4/23/81. If I remember correctly, the Misfits did not play an LA show on that date. I can provide a list of the songs if it helps. And I have one that is supposedly their last show at Greystone Hall, Detroit MI 10/29/83. Well, at one point in the tape, a person got on stage and thanked the Misfits for coming out to CALIFORNIA. If anyone can help me identify these shows, I'd be grateful. If you think you might be able to help, drop me an email and I'll give you more details. And no, neither of them are the infamous Christmas show. Now it's time for me to do the mandatory apology for the long note thing. Too bad, I'm not sorry. I had lots of stuff to say, so I did.

Their set included all the classic ("Attitude," Last Carress," "Bullet," "Astro Zombies," etc.), and one new song, which was not bad. as much as it pains me to get suckered into the punk-rock reunion tour thing, i have to admit it was fun to see somebody, even if it wasn't the original lineup, play Misfits songs. that said i would not pay $17.50 (plus ticketmaster surcharge) and put up with an idiotic crowd to see them on the "Buy Our Box Set" Tour. well at least it seems that he had heard of the misfits b4 giving his review... though i don't understand WTF he is doing reviewing shows, when he can't even handle a fairly tame crowd, i guess he was expecting to a seated orchestral performance with ushers and polite conversation in the restrooms... the review also has a picture of doyle and what looks like glenn to me... odd... also in the aquarian is a half page add for uneasy listening... mine is on backorder... fuck fuck fuck. :.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.: Jess Cyphers Asenath WiCkEdKiNgWiCkEr cyphersj@polaris.ncs.nova.edu ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I am the ruler of an invisible empire.

But its kind of hard when your only 14 and still live with your parents who won't let you get online in order to post. I voted on the shirt but thats only because my parents weren't home which obviously makes it easier. I also don't ever have anything to post since like I said I'm only 14 and don't have much information to contribute and i don't learn anything from my friends because they are either a bunch of shitty alternateens or I know more about the misfits then they do and when I do learn something its usually off of the bible. So you shouldn't be so shitty about this active member crap when we may try our hardest and you might not know we do.

Just because I subscribe to the Bible, does NOT mean that I ought to think that Glenn can kick Henry's ass (or that Glenn has a nice ass, for that matter). I subscribe to this bible because I love the Misfits music, not because I love Glenn. Benito---I would love for Glenn & Henry to fight...not to see either one of them, but to see Don King!

I haven't heard much about this subject in recent Bible issues so I felt compelled to post this. I think it would be a great idea if us Fiends who are willing to make the sojurn to Milwaukee had a place to meet before the show. There are a few problems with this though. First of all we need to find a Fiend who knows the city fairly well to designate a place for us to meet before the show, and we have yet to hear from one. Secondly, I was there last year and the assholes at security wouldn't let you leave and come back in, even to make a phone call, and the phones being located outside of the designated "concert area", this is kind of inconvenient, I suggest we decide on a time and place to meet, and decide on a time to enter the Eagles Auditorium after our meeting, since we won't be allowed to leave. Anyone with suggestions please don't be afraid of posting. One last thing, as you probably already know, Greg Petre won the shirt contest, and if you haven't checked out his web page I suggest you do. I've been there and I can tell you that he is a great artist and also a close personal friend of mine. He and I were even in a Misfits cover band that played one show under the name The Fiends. The band sort of fell apart after that. We really kind of blew it at our show. Oh well. Anyway, I have a new band by the name of the Totally Bitchin' Rubber Chickens and the Misfits are one of our biggest influences. If any of you are interested in our stuff e-mail me at MDPPix@aol.com I've taken up enough space for one issue.

First off, I don't know what the hell people are talking about when they were refering to the shirt untill a few days ago. I still don't know where to go to look at the designs that were offered. This calender thing still eludes me. I don't know what people are talking about. Would someone please fill me in on this? A little Danzig siting of my own. I met Glen once in my life backstage when he was touring with Metallica, and Suicidal Tendencies. I didn't talk to him that much but I did get him to sighn some stuff. I really wanted to ask him about the Misfits but I wasn't sure how he would react and there were a lot of other people there too. Also, I have tried going to the IRC #misfits channel and there is never anybody there. Once there was two people (HepCat, and X) and the other time there was just nobody. Is there a good time to go there or does nobody just go there? ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 11 Jul 1996 16:15:22 -0700 From: Stuman_the_Sloth_ Subject: Scarecrow Allo, Just got the new California Cheapskates Catalog, and there's a new Misfits deck from Scarecrow.

The movie, as someone else has already mentioned, is called "Airborne" - just the sort of image glenn and co. need right? 2. I am going into a fit of depression- I live on the west coast and just caught wind of a misfits show in San Diego with Anthrax, and 2 other bands( I forgot who exactly, but they did sound familiar. My problem is that I just got back from San Diego after my yearly trip home(I live in Bakersfield). Anyway, I'm considering going back. I'm wondering if anyone knows how I can find out about west coast shows a little more than a few days before they happen? 3.

Don't you realise that the bible's all about asserting how cool you are by participating in these projects? geez, you probably think its purpose is to spread information about The Misfits and other directly related bands, or something stupid like that. Here's the next Bible project: Misfits Bible Tattoos. The design will have the Crimson Ghost, with one of these slogans written in the Famous Monsters of Filmland font: 1)"I'm a punk-as-fuck Bible member and you're not" 2)"I don't care about apathy" 3)"Too cool to post" 4)"I was watching 'Saved by the Bell' and i saw..." 5)"The 78 elite" 6)"Spinal Remains give me gas" 7)"The mafia's the reason..." 8)"Nyah! Nyah! My collection's bigger than yours!" 9)"I'm Possessed by Wes!" 10)"Post this!" First, pick a slogan and pray to Satan for that one to be chosen (offer him your soul if you really want that slogan to win). Next, Satan tallies up the prayers, and contacts me via my dog to tell me which slogan won. Then, each of you will get the final design tattooed right in the middle of your forehead, so everyone will know you're a hardcore active Bible member. After it's finished, send Mark a picture of you and your tattoo. And if you don't participate in this Bible activity, I will keep calling you lazy.

It was an all day long concert and it basically rocked. Sepultura was the best band that played, at least until Iggy hit the stage: he just blew everything away: "Raw Power" and "No Fun" being the most intense versions. The Sex Pistols behaved pretty well: they played every tune from "Nevermind the bollocks..." plus "Satellite" and some rests here and there to catch some breath. I have to point out that the singer wasn't Sex Pistols' Johnny Rotten but was PIL's John Lydon (if you know what i mean...) anyways a very interesting show, although it's been a little sad in the end (even though not as much as the last Ramones show they played in my city some time ago), John even sang "I thought it was ITALY, or just another country....." and that kinda liked me: they are good boys after all. PS. I want to thank Chris Ternes for sending me 9 (!) amazing tapes which totally rock: if anybody wants to get some misfits boots at a reasonable price, he's the man to deal with.

Hello fiends and today i will not let the post take over the entire ending of the bible. I just had to make my point, cause i feel strongly about the Bible and the people involved in it. I had just hoped that by making it a little more interesting more people would find a reason to post or interact with the other fiends. Mark didn't create this for one person and out of the time he takes 3 days a week i would think that we the members could make it just that bit more than your regular run of the mill info on the members of the Misfits. Shit you don't see to many other news lists that have the band actually involved or any of its members hanging out and answering questions. So all i could hope is that the 700 other members will try to make a little change in their routine lives and jump right in and post or get involved in the next activity. Which leads me to a reminder that Monday will be the post for details on the Flaming Mark Special Issue. This is going to be a fun one guys and Bobby and i have some cool prizes for the best posts( obviously the Hurricane passed Florida if i'm posting now). So check out Mondays Bible on how you can get your one and only chance to Flame Mark. Mark you must be really looking forward to this too. As for the Bible T-shirt, well things are going well and Greg is still working hard on refining his design. Once Mark speaks to Kenny we should have more info on ordering, price, and the production of our very own t-shirt. well it's that time again. Till Monday, everyone have a fiendish weekend, i know i will plus i will get to sleep late - novel concept for me after a week of being up a 5am. No UFO's just lots of fucked up people jogging. Who wants to run at 5am. later to all the little fiendies!?!

WHO CARES? ------------------------------ Subject: one thirty ate Date: Fri, 12 Jul 96 17:52:35 EDT From: Blood Feast okay, here's what it's all about. there are 78 active members on the bible, just like "psycho 78" in Horror business. horror business is is on disk one, track three of the box set. Glenn Danzig has been in three bands that play Horror Business (or "horror Biz") when he updated the song for samhain, he said "psycho 88", not seventy eight. now, take disk one of the box set, track three, add the new number for the samhain version, eight, and you get one thirty eight. not to mention that danzig was in three bands that played this sone, and there are three digits in 138, so obviously this song, along with horror business was a tribute to the 78 active members of the misfits bible. there are also 26 letters in the english alphabet, which if all of you look down right now and see, those letters are on your keyboard. subtract 20 from twenty six, Because of the song "20 Eyes", and then you're left with six. write that number for each time glenn played "horror business" with a different band, and you get 666!! now take the three songs we've been discussing, Horror Business (Disk 1, Track 3; Disk 2, Track 17, Disk 3, Track 5, track 14) We Are 138 (Disk 2 Track 25; Disk 4, Track 7) and 20 Eyes (Disk 2 track 14, Disk 3 track 22 and 29). Now take Horror Business, which appears on the box set 4 times (4-1=3, 2x4=8, that gives you 138) We are 138 appears 2 times (this gives you the 2 for the equation from the last song) and finally take 20 eyes, which also appears 4 times ( again 4-1=3, 2x4=8, that gives you 138). take all the nubers from the track listings of the box set, 1,3,2,17,3,5,14,2,25,4,7,2,14,3,22,29, add them all together and you get 153. add five and three and you get 8. take the first and last numbers of 153 and put 8 on the end and what do you get? 138 am I cool or what? love bloodfeast ------------------------------ From: Osito666@aol.com Date: Fri, 12 Jul 1996 19:59:37 -0400 Subject: Last Issue Neil McAllister's post last issue was beautiful.

I have listened to the Misfits since 1986, when I found out that the guy who sang for Samhain was in a band in the late '70's and early '80's. Erik Lindberg, your tape was recorded at Al's Bar in Los Angeles circa 1982. Three mistakes before the end of Nike A Go GO, the first song.And I agree, "The Misfits is the best fucking band!" Does anyone wanna buy some vinyl? All my Misfits shit is lost forever in Denver, CO, and the only shit I still have here in Texas is some Samhain and Danzig shit. To the best bidders I have: SAMHAIN "Unholy Passion" 2nd pressing Plan 9 PL9-05 VG+ slight split on side over the word passion in center. About one inch. This is with the burgundy cover. 12" EP. Minimum $30! SAMHAIN "Season of the Dead" Fiend Club West German bootleg. Jockey Club and Unknown Show 1984. Great quality and performance. I had six Samhain bootlegs and this is the BEST!! VG LP Minimum $15 DANZIG "Live in New York" November 1988. Jonesco. Good quality bootleg of a very early Danzig show. 3 Misfits and 1 Samhain song. VG Minimum $15. So anyway, does this mean that I have the priveledge of being 'elite' now, fiends? Just because I've listened to the Misfits since I was 9 years old and didn't find out about them from a Metallica EP, I think I deserve some credit. misfit@slinknet.com ***Hack the heads off little girls and put 'em on my wall*** P.S. The Dead Milkmen played Astro Zombies at their last show in New Orleans. This show was bootlegged, and no one has a copy. I WANT THIS!!! If you have any information, there is a reward, and all e-mailers will remain anonymous. Yeah, whatever. Anok! ------------------------------ From: Paul Hahn Subject: stooges Date: Fri, 12 Jul 1996 20:47:09 -0400 (EDT) first to whoever mentioned that they might tour again? not very likely. iggy does have the support of ron asherton on some gigs, like the one in motown, haha fuckas. i would say that iggy pop could blow any one off stage anytime, anyplace. the best thrill in my life was iggy sturting around topless screamin "pussy walk" he does to a high number of stooges songs in his live stuff anyways. also on another note chuck bisuits is now the new socoal distortion drummer and they've got a new album out sometime soon. sorta close on both accounts to misfits relativity. -- Paul Hahn You think you're a fine exanple of culture, hahnpaul@acm.msu but you're nothing but a high fashion vulture.

I have to say that issue 203 of the Bible was quite a surprise. It kinda reminds me of the ending of Danzig's "satanika" #3 where that big fuckin' blue beast Dalkiel comes outta no where all pissed off... (Any comments on those comics, BTW? I think the writing kinda blows...) All the rants and responses just kinda caught me off guard is all I'm saying... As far as I'm concerned, I couldn't give a fuck if everyone replies to the Bible. I do, however, enjoy when people do. I don't care if they're funny (JimBison, por ejemplo, has consistently posted some funny as fuck stuff on both the Bible and the OpMan lately--Props, cuz!), informative (eg. Mark's knowledge of every damn thing any of the Misfits has ever done--BTW, what tiolet paper do they prefer? :) ), or whatever. Shit, I won't even say that I don't enjoy the bitchy or "Fuck all of you" posts. Unlike Thumper's parents, I think that it's OK to say something even if it _isn't_ nice. As long as it's interesting... Now, I consider the Bible a forum for people to talk about _anything_. Maybe I'm wrong, but what ties us together here is our common interest in The Misfits. But we are all VERY different people, and I think it is interesting to hear responses about various things from people I might not otherwise have any contact with. Sounds like a Hallmark, doesn't it?: "The Misfits, bringing us all together." Anyway, I understand that some people get a little bent out of shape when topics of discussion don't ALWAYS relate to The Misfits, but who the hell could talk about them ALL THE TIME? In my book that's fanaticism, and it just isn't healthy. So, personally, I have tried to keep on the track with the subject of The Misfits mostly, but sometimes I gotta deviate a little. After all, to quote some corporate slogan I saw, "Different doesn't mean deficient." For example, the subject of Nazi Germany relates to the Misfits, albeit it's a reach, lyrically and because of Glenn's apparent interest in the second world war. I find this stuff fascinating, but others on the Bible may not. That's a shame. I don't really give two shits about every fucking bootleg, or when and where they recorded the shit, but some of you do. That's great--it's just not my cup of tea. Like Chubbs said in his recent post, if you don't like it, just keep scrolling. That's what I do. So, continuing, I find the topic of Nazi Germany a hell of a lot more interesting than, let's say, a discussion about hot wings (Long Wong's is best) and Vindaloo chicken (By the way, have any of you heard CRACKER's "I Hate My Generation"? I swear, it sounds like he's singing "Mahatma Generation.") As far as the "Getting to Know You" and T-shirt voting, I think that many people are interested to see who else likes The Misfits. I'm sure we have all sorts of people on this list, and like I said, The Bible is a cool resource to make contact with people you might never have done so with just because we all like The Misfits. So, I think the bitching about people not cooperating in the "Getting to Know You" was meant to come across more like: "C'mon guys, it would be cool to get to know the people here and see what everybody's about." As for the T-shirt voting, I would have been pleased if more of y'all voted, but hey, it's your choice not to. Again, my take on some of the comments about non-voters were probably just meant to remind you guys that if you didn't vote, NOBODY is gonna listen to YOU BITCH AND MOAN. That's all.. But that's just my opinion. I simply think that the Misfits Bible is a forum for 'Fits fans to talk about anything, especially the band. If you don't like it, respond or just keep scrolling. If ya got something to say, then say it. If someone jumps all over your case, tell 'em to fuck off, or whatever plan of action suits your fancy. But don't be a whining sissy, OK? I'll agree that it takes two to have a conversation, which is basically what this Bible thing is: an exchange of information like a conversation--one to speak and the other to listen. But eventually, the speaker gets tired of talking, and wants to hear what the listener has to say. As some of you have noticed, some of the topics on the Bible have gotten kinda dull and/or silly lately--So why not add something? Why not throw in your own comments or start a NEW, MORE INTERESTING discussion? Just a suggestion. Do what you want, contribute or don't. But I prefer variety myself... +++++++++++++ RICHARD DURAN: Hey, I'll be at the Tucson show at the Paragon. I'm coming almost straight from the airport show, though, so I might be late. No big loss as far as I'm concerned--Just as long as I see all of The Misfits' set. Anyway, e-mail me directly if yer gonna be there. COMMENTS ON GLENN: Last issue, someone said that Danzig was touring with Def Leppard a few years ago, and the singer or somebody from the band (I thought it would have been the drummer) decked Glenn, and Glenn just walked away. It may have been humility or something, but i just can't understand that. I'm not a real violent guy, but if one of those pansey-ass limey butt-rock hair-farmers decked me, I'd do all in my power to damage him. I would have expected different from Glennard. THEN, in Bible issue 203, someone posted an article about The Misfits (sorry I can't remember who) getting back together and how Jerry and Doyle were escorted by security at Glenn's request from his hotel when Jerry and Doyle were trying to ask Glennif he wanted to get back together. I find this information very disconcerting if it's true. I don't worship Glennard or anything, but you'd just kinda expect more common decency, especially when dealing with your (former?) friends. Well, that's all for now, Fiends. Feel free to comment on my stuff (or not :)), or even flame me. Just make it interesting, OK? Until then...

Why I have no idea. The person I spoke to didn't know why. What I do know is that the Convention Hall has recently been refurbished so perhaps whoever books the acts that perform there changed their minds and didn't want that type of show going on there. I don't see why the Misfits themselves would cancel just that one show if it wasn't something to do with some business problem behind the scenes with the owner or manager of the hall. Who knows. All I know is that this really sucks. First I can't see that White Zombie show I've been waiting to see, the Smashing Pumpkins concert I've been looking forward to was canceled/post-poned because the keyboard player kicked off, and now this. This really has been a disheartening chain of events. I guess when it rains, it pours. Hopefully I'll be able to make it to the action park show so maybe the summer won't be entirely concert-less ... - BILE666. ------------------------------ From: cbmed@cdx.net Date: Sat, 13 Jul 1996 11:46:07 -0400 Subject: ALL THE BROWN TOUNGED FIENDS Some of you (actually most of you) are whiney, ass-kissing, hurtsacks.

My guess about this 138 business is really weird, but I think it's backed up by some of the song's lyrics. 138, in my mind, is a referrence to the George Lucas movie THX-1138 (somebody's probably already guessed this, and if so, excuse me for using your precious bible space). The movie is about people in the future, stripped of all their humanity and living much like robots. As you'll note, some lyrics from "We Are 138" run along similar lines to this plot (i.e., "Is it time to be an android, not a man"......."the pleasantries are gone, we're stripped of all we were", etc).

We dont make any money off of them, so, as before, they will be $4 (for the cost of a tape and postage). For those of you who have our previous demo, this one is of much better quality, sound wise and playing wise. So, if your interested in hearing what we sound like; E-mail me and I'll get one out to you right away. As always, let me point out that the Misfits are 100% behind what we do and Glenn has said that he doesnt mind it. In fact, I'm hoping to get Jerry and the boys to endorse the band in some way when they return to Cleveland. I'm just mentioning this because someone always inevitably posts back with some crack smoking comment about us ripping off the Misfits and Glenn. Also, I'd like to get in touch with the guys who were putting together the tribute album for the Bible, but I seemed to have lost your names and addresses. We'd like to send you out a copy of the new tape. E-mail me please if you are one of the aforementioned guys or you know how to get in touch with them. (Mark?) And last but not least, I'm not sure if this is the sort of thing you're looking for but, Patricia (Denmother), you said something about photos for the calendar. I'd love to send you a photo of Devilock, if you want. That way, if Jerry endorses the band you'll have a photo of "The Official Tribute Band of The Misfits." :) On that same note, I think a lot of people are confused as to just what the calendar is going to be all about. That may be why you're not getting much of a response. I mean, will it be a Misfits calendar (with only photos of them) or more of a Bible calendar (with fiend artwork and photos and related what-nots?) Just curious. Fill us in, if you'd like.

Feeling a little stung after being called one of the "FUCKING LAZY ASSES " (as it was so nicely put), I thought I'd better post....... Though ive been reading the Bible from somewhere round issue 90 (I think - My Email got trashed last month), ive not posted before, but didn't know that was a problem. I tend to be someone who listens more than blowing my mouth off all the time. If I have something to say I will join in. Ive entered some of the comps (Ok Mark - so I took time sending the money over for the Poster), I did the Let's Get To Know Each Other Issue earlier in the year. I don't see the point in Emailing in saying "The Misfits are fuckin cool" or whatever. We all know that or we wouldn't be here. As far as I was aware this bible was to spread information about Misfits and related bands. I get all my info from the Bible. As yet Ive not had any info to spread. Who wants to know whether Ive got the EAD Gold CD, or an original copy of Unholy Passion? I seem to have had all my questions on the Misfits, Samhain,Danzig and the Undead answered without having to ask. I didn't manage to get to see the Misfits when they were over here so I can't review a gig for you, so I have to make do with reading other peoples reviews and feeling gutted that Ive not seen them. (Yet!) I didn't vote for a T-Shirt as I shan't be buying one (I did check them out though). I'm just not into being "one of the club" with my Bible T-Shirt. Whats so wrong with just reading the Bible anyway? Does it harm anyone? The only person I can see it affects is Mark. He has to collate EMails and send them out. I apologise to CG for this post as I am doing one of the things he was complaining about. Complaining in my first post. But in some respects isn't that what you wanted? Im assuming Your and Tammy made the comments to spur people into doing SOMETHING. Well It worked. Whether I post again will remain to be seen. I'm quite happy being a passive member. The last thing I'll say is a quote from CG's FAQ on the Bible "Tell all the fiends you know about this list and talk whenever you feel like it." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ MC ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 15 Jul 1996 00:49:58 -0500 From: tes777@bridge.net (Tammy S.) Subject: Some Kinks in the Chain... Hello to all the fiendies - I guess its time for me to clear up this big mess that I seem to have begun. First off to Bob, well thank you for admiting you were wrong and participating. Plus i was happy to see that someone knows something about cooking in this place, i have had Chicken Vindaloo though Indian food is not one of my all time faves. Its between Italian and Thai. This is one think i must clear up first *POSTING HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, I NEVER SAID THAT YOU HAD TO POST TO BE ACTIVE. MATTER OF FACT I SAID I KNOW SEVERAL BIBLE MEMBERS THAT ARE ACTIVE YET CHOOSE NOT TO OR EVERY SO OFTEN POST*. To the others since way to many of you had something to say: 1) The crap about having no life cause of the way i post or run these things, well to clear that up i work 40 - 50 hours a week at a TV station designing television graphics, i workout 4 - 5 days a week for about 1 1/12 to 2 hours a night(though i do all cardio, i will not get back to weight lifting till after i finish school) i have my friends i spend time with and was dating a guy who turned out to be a bomb. Yet i do make time to play with all the fiendies on the bible. In short i am very busy and not some waste that spend every waking moment on the internet or e-mail. 2) I see that some of you agree and some don't about active and non active. All i tried to do here is make a more social place in the bible. I never said everyone had to participate yet it would be cool if you did. If you want to just sit and read three times a week that is cool too, but shit you can buy a magazine and do that. This place has always been different then most news listings and the discusions have not always been your basic run of the mill lets talk Misfits, Samhain, Danzig, Undead 24 hours a day. We do get carried away on other topics which is good. So I'm not G-d, and you don't have to come and play if you don't want to, but i will not just sit back and watch this place go total boring either. I will still be posting my heart out and screaming in your eyes every so often when need be. To all the new members that just came into this I'm glad you joined and i hope this insanity will not scare you off. We do have are moments and not always sane ones at that. Most go by name of Misfits related stuff, others interesting names like Denmother Patricia, oh and that yuts giving crap about her name. Buddy she's here and we are lucky to have her just like Bobby. Who else was around when the Misfits were still together!?! I don't see anyone else with cool stories about the old days. Plus we are lucky to have a Misfits member here too. I don't know anyone else I'm happy to know and also puked on John Lennon's shoes. Plus both have participated in everything. 4) By the way AZ i take you up on the activity tell me what you want to do with the 138 and we'll let it rip after the Flaming issue. Give me a write. 5) Like any of you would dare think i'd let that one go!?! Now on to bigger fish to fry: We have a new Activity but this contest is for everyone. ***Flaming Mark Special Issue*** This is how it goes, you the bible members get you one major chance to Flame Mark, yes Mark the guy that created Misfits Central, Samhain Central and The Misfits Bible. Most of you think or feel he is beyond reproach. That how could you ever flame Mark, well now is the time. You have till Wednesday 24, 10PM to send in you flames to me. Yes that give you a week and a 2 day to come up with the most amazing flame and will be in the special issue for Friday July 26. There will be a judging of all done by Me and Bobby Steele, who came up with this contest in the first place. The Top 4 will win some cool stuff, which is still being discussed. Though it will probably be stuff from Bobby's stash and i will kick in a 5 to 5 1/2 hours of live Misfits, Samhain and Danzig footage and some other goodies i have around my collection(no none of you are getting my Cough/Cool which i only need one more signature for). So let's get cracking. Once in a life time chance can not just slip through you fingers. Plus not excuses, all you have to do is write. No brain surgery or having to have fast modems to look at artwork. The rest of the prizes will be listed in the next bible. Good luck and i'm sure you guys will have some original FLAMES!!! Well i might have semi normal hours for work tomorrow but it's time to say later till the next issue. If you are still not happy with what was said or feel like this has messed up the way you want to be in the bible, to fucking bad. Then you post and make your own effort or just make believe this is a tri-weekly magazine and have nothing to do with the other Bible Members. Later to all you happy fiends everywhere!?!

The highlight was being five feet away from Sarah Jessica Parker..... Back to business. I have a LOT of tapes to make. I mean, over 20, so there may be a couple delays in getting your tapes. However, everything should be done by the end of the week. I'm also going to be including some promo stuff for some people, and one lucky and lovely young lady will get a free shirt. As far as D-Rod's "B-Movie Maddness". Did I read correctly he was selling it for $2? Goddamn! Listen fiends, this is a great tape. This guy put a lot of time and effort into going out, getting the flicks, and editing this tape up. GET IT! It is a must to all collections. It is very cool to hear a line from the flick that inspired the song before that song. I especially like the Night of the Living Dead and Die, Die My Darline clips. Creepy! Listen for two bucks, YOU NEED TO GET IT. Good good stuff. NO, Sepultura will not be at the Metal Fest. I've heard a lot of bad bad rumors about this. "Yeah man, Slayer, Pantera, King Diamond and Megadeth are gonna be there" No no no. The big acts are Misfits/Anthrax/Gwar/Cannibal Corpse/Life of Agony/Internal Bleeding. ie, NO SLAYER, nor any band in the section in quotations. Although Slayer will be at Irving Plaza in early August.

I find this information very disconcerting if it's true. This is 100% true. Jerry and Doyle attempted to talk to Glenn about joining their band in several ways. After the Danzig show in Red Bank, NJ in April of '95, Doyle, John Grimm, and Jerry went over to his hotel room and sent Doyle up to Glenn's door to talk to him. After knocking several times, Doyle was escorted out by security. I think this was Glenn's way of avoiding any sort of face-to-face discussion, confrontation, and it got the message across. > From: cbmed@cdx.net > As for Mark, you don't have to give him head to be on the bible. > He's just a guy who, somehow, has enough time to do all this shit.

If I give the link, I get a bunch of personal messages from the people who don't have web access, or the time to check the page. It's easier for me to answer potential questions by supplying the answers before the questions are asked. I don't know why your issue got cut, but a lot of Internet servers don't allow messages larger than 100Kbytes or 50K to go through completely. I know that AOL used to break messages up, and some servers just bounce the messages back. That's what happens when members get too active.

Well there i was standing there staring at nothing when i noticed a guy with a Misfits shirt on.....No big deal i see that alot. I take a second glance for some reason and I thought it looked alot like Michale Graves (i went to the show at the pony in may..great!), but i figured someone as cool as that wouldnt be at the boardwalk. Then some punk kid walks up to him and starts talking to him....he was totally cool, he was with all his friends but he stopped to talk to anyone who wanted to talk to him, no rockstar bullshit there.....

Really have not had much to say, and I know if ya'll are like me youd much rather not read what I have to say about not having anything to say. Right. Anyway, 1. Since I read the bible on Mark's page, and don't get it mailed to me each time, does that make me a subscriber? If that's the case I bet there are way more than 780 'subscribers' on the bible. 2. Minor sighting. Watching an episode of that Mtv show, 'Road Rules', the black guy 'Los', sings a line from "Mother". It's in the one where they're river rafting. He sings, "Mother, tell your children not to let Los paddle" or something like that. Hey, at least it's not the "Saved by the Bell" reference again! 3. I went to see Estrojet this weekend. They rule! Anyone outside the Baltimore/ Washington DC area has probably never heard of them. They used to be called Womyn of Destruction. Saw a lot o' kids with Misfits gear on, so I though maybe some of ya'll might like them too. They are 3 girls (vocal/guitar, bass, & accordian(!?)) and two boys (drums, guitar). Their music is pure girly though. Their best song is called "Mike Hunt". I kept thinking that would make a great phone prank for the Simpsons. "Is Mr. Hunt there? First name, Mike" "Let me check. Mike Hunt? Has anyone seen Mike Hunt?" Anyway, you can mail them at 'estromail@aol.com'. (I think that's right. If it's wrong, mail me) They have like 4 demos and couple of 7"s. I'm gonna send Mark a copy of the two demos I bought, and hopefully they will get a gig with the Misfits. -Bricks ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 15 Jul 1996 14:02:48 -0500 (CDT) From: Bone Machine Subject: The shocking return of a lazy ass One reason I rarely post shit on here is because I do not want to send something as totally silly as the Hank vs. Glenn bullshit or anyone's interpretation of 138. As for my feelings on 138, it's a number in a Misfits song, that's all I need to know. Concerning the Rollins/Danzig bout, that is about as mentally stimulating as who would win between Batman and Superman. The answer to that is who gives a fuck. Bone Machine, self proclaimed lazy ass ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 15 Jul 1996 12:32:28 -0700 From: Neil McAllister Subject: Bible #204 I think I must have missed another issue of the Bible due to flaky e-mail connection. But someone mentioned offhand that someone else was talking about cooking Chicken Vindaloo! The timing is bizarre -- vindaloo and Indian cooking is my latest craze. Whomever it was talking about the vindaloo, please send me E-Mail personally. I just this weekend went out and bought a book on traditional Indian cooking, and I plan to make some badass vindaloo later this week, once I collect some spices and so forth. If you have any insight or recipes or anything, let me know. And, on-topic: Before you guys start all foaming at the mouth that Glenn Danzig posted to the Bible, let me assure you that the message from was a spoof. If you have access to a Unix shell account, get in there and type "whois evillive" and you will see that the domain name doesn't even exist. It was a good try though... ------------------------------ From: NghtMary@aol.com Date: Mon, 15 Jul 1996 18:47:05 -0400 Subject: Howdy.. Hello Fiends! For any of you who have been waiting for this, Glenn plans to start a tour in October, one of these shows being the Irvine Meadows show on Halloween. He has hired a new guitar player (from Fight) and has a former Danzig roadie on bass for the time being. They are working hard to get ready for the tour. He plans to release his album by the end of summer, if all goes well, possibly on Hollywood Records. This of course will depend on the outcome of the litigation between him and american. =) M. PS Yes, 138 is from the sci fi movie THX1138.. no big hidden meaning or anything. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 15 Jul 1996 17:07:31 PST Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #204 From: undead@juno.com (bobby steele) Hey Fiends, My phone has been out of service since the rainstorm LAST Monday. NYNEX can't get their shit together, so I've been incomunicado for a week now. It looks like Tammy touched a nerve with some of you. I didn't get #203 ( I think it got blown away in the hurricane) but #204 was one of the best bibles I've seen so far. You don't have to say anything intelligent. As you can see in some of my posts, you can talk utter nonsense. It's just nice to know you're not dead . . . yet. And a special note to all you 'Inactive' members that have sent in your comments - CONGRATULATIONS you're now ACTIVE. Hell; just post something like "BURP". You don't need to say anything important, inciting, insightful or intelligent either (or this thing would be a blank page). TIMES SQUARE will be playing this Saturday, JULY 20 at the SLEEPING TURTLE on CHESTNUT STREET in New Paltz, NY. Filling out the bill will be THE MIGRAINES (who'll be backing me up for a few UNDEAD gigs in August) and FLATUS (who opened for the FITS at the STONE PONY show). It's another all-ages show, so ya oughta BYOB. Our show in READING, Pa was fun, like Jess Cyphers mentioned. Too bad about that kid. He was the best part of the night for us. He was just 'doing the punk thing' and having fun heckling Dave. I think it was the drummer from Christian Science, who thought he'd come to Dave's defense, who started telling the kid off and chased him outside. The one kid who really showed the true spirit of punk, and he gets run out of the show - not to mention 2/3 of the crowd ran out after him and missed the opportunity of having Jill lapdance during one of her guitar breaks. I'll bet that 'lucky' kid is still sporting a woody today. So hopefully my phone'll be back on by the time this gets out, and I can use my own computer to send out the directions to this place. JAID - I'd better see you there or the iguana gets it. >Date: Fri, 12 Jul 1996 14:13:28 +0000 >From: Glenn Danzig >Subject: Fits are dead > >Dear "fiends", > >I am writing to fill you in on a little secret.

Well, acually, It's not really that major but it involves me so what the hell. This past Sunday at the grocery store I work at we built the worlds largest ceasar salad for charity and got in the genius book of world records. The CBC was there and taped some footage for the news. Knowing this I decided to wear my misfits shirt and that night on the news, nationwide in Canada, there were 2 clear shots of me in my LOB shirt, front and back. Did anyone see it? Just curious.

Hey I think I'm gonna take a shit, do you think Tammy could whip up a special issue to commemorate the event? I admit to keeping some off topic posts going, and to being overly negative at times, but fuck me... This is getting ridiculous. These "special" issues are insane. It will be the death of this list I tell you it will. What is this? Romper room (barney for the younger kids) for fiends? Since when do we need a ring-leader to keep us focused on something? I didn't realize how much people dislike what's going on until I came out on her side of the active/inactive thread... hmmmmm Really it's like this: The get to know you issue was a stupid idea, nobody gives a fuck what you are into. The T-shirt idea was a great idea, unfortunately Tammy caused the whole mess to be rushed. RUSHED? well, what do you mean Mr. Ghost? Look at it this way. Rocky & Jerry said it was ok but don't waste their time if only a few people will buy it. I don't know about you but 78 people voted on it, how many do you think will buy it? In a limited run these shirts are gonna cost almost $20 a piece. That leaves out most of the college kids. I'd betcha you don't sell more than 100. that people is not worth the effort at this point. 800 people on a list is *nothing* I belong to some lists with over 4000 people on them. Trust me you don't see the home beer brewers list making fucking T-shirts. So anyway I despise what's become of this list. I used to be annoyed that Tammy's posts were put last. What's so special about what she's gotta say? Then I thought about it, her post coming last isn't that bad. When I see tes777 I know I've reached the end and I can just skip to the next piece of mail. I hate to come out anti-Tammy cause in actuality she's a pretty nice girl, but come on gimme a break all this whining and begging is starting to get to me. Please no more fucking theme issues. What the hell is this? I thought it was a list about about a punk band. How totally unpunk is scripting out fun & games for everybody? I think we should organize a vote: How many of you are sick of special issues / Voting on things? If I'm wrong on this I'll unsub today.

Greetings fellow fiends. I'm wondering about where everyone going to metalfest will meet also. I think we all should meet at the actual building (Eagles Ballroom Parkinglot) around noon and go from there. There's plenty of stuff within walking distance once everyone gets there. I'm no Milwaukee expert but I know of a few places around the area. Also how many people who are going Friday are also going Saturday to see GWAR? I'm there both days...gotta see gwar. Also if anyone from north of Milwaukee needs directions, I have directions to the show from Appleton on down, it's not too tough to find. Anyone going e-mail me and hopefully we all can come to agreement on a place to meet at. I think if we all hit Pizza Hut and took the Pizza Buffet that would be cool, cuz Pizza Hut's buffet rules. Guess we'll just have to see. Also a really just plain wrong Danzig sighting... I was going through some old posters that I have from when I was younger (the ones you get in music magazines) and I came across a poster which on one side had a cool Iron Maiden pic, and on the other side BRACE YOURSELVES a Winger poster with Kip Winger with a Danzig shirt on. I just about died when I saw that. Maybe I'll get a scanner and send it to people who want it. It really is funny. If you are looking to get ahold of bootleg videos and are on a tight budget, I have a few to trade for other boots or horror movies (originals only) or one of the things I have collected alot of lately is ATARI games. Just send me a list of stuff you have to trade and we'll see if we can work a deal. I am especially in need of those games if you have them Atari 2600, 7800, and 5200. Just drop me a line.

First of all, this is Ian and Cara from Toronto Ontario Canada. this is the first time we have posted to the bible, and we have lots to say! The opinions expressed herein will NOT be sugar coated or flowered up in any way, so for those losers who can't stomach constructive criticism, skip to the next post now. 1) What the hell is with this 138 thing? We don't care if your purchases amount to $138.00, or not! We doubt that anyone else does either. And if Glenn Danzig could predict the future and create some farfetched equasion involving tracks of CDs that weren't even around then (the material on them, or for that matter CDs themselves) to arrive at a specific number JUST SO HE COULD WRITE A SONG ENTITLED WE ARE 138, then he truly does belong among the gods. But he's not...he's just a guy who wrote/writes great music. If anything is the right answer, it was given by MR OSIRIS N PAIN when he mentioned THX 1138. This was George Lucas's first film, a sci-fi film that came out in 1970. As we all know, Misfits got much inspiration from films, NOT FROM THEIR GROCERY BILL. As a side note, those introductory noises at the beginning of Nine Inch Nails album THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL were all sampled from THX 1138. 2) Keep your silly drawings to yourself, hamster boy...they just waste space. Yes, it is true we are fans of short emails, but this one is a little bit longer than ours would be normally, because we felt it necessary to express our views on some of the brainless jabber on this thing. 3) Why the fuck do you need TAB to play the misfits? We aren't trashing the Misfits at all here. If you call yourself a musician, Richard Hinojos, then pick up your instrument and use your ears...a musicians greastest tool. What do you think we did before tab came out? Or, if you feel really risky, try making music of your own! Okay, thats good enough for now, shame on all you idiots, and cheers to those who actually said something intelligent or thought provoking. See ya, Ian and Cara. Oh yeah, the Misfits rule. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Jul 1996 22:09:30 -0400 (EDT) From: Daniel Rodrigues Subject: Ressurected! hello Fiends, Well sorry that i didnt post to the last 2 bibles but I have some comments on the last bible.

Now I wouldve probably got into them when garage days came out but Last carress was not out then, so I never got anything. But I didnt have access to the internet although this all predates the page, and I had no idea that the misfits were alive until this fall! So the only thing there was Glenn and samhain!

I find this information very disconcerting if it's true. >don't worship Glennard or anything, but you'd just kinda expect more= >common decency, especially when dealing with your (former?) friends. Funny thing is that if you get the radio interviews from Chris T youll hear Jerry say in one Interview that he is planning to go see Glenn and offer him his old job back, Then in another he says he holds no annimosity towards Glenn if he wants to come back for a few shows then that would be great, cuz Glenn probably wouldnt want to just drop Danzig. Well he talks about how he is supposed to go see one of Glenns shows so maybe this is when it happened. Funny thing is that Jerry and Doyle in one interview say how when they were at the meeting for the lawsuit, they got along well and talked?

(For those of you who don't want to read a long post, scroll down NOW!) What makes communication communication is the exchange of ideas between two or more people. However, this debate over active/passive members has reached the level of redundancy. Call me passive for not participating, so be it. I didn't vote for a shirt for several reasons: namely, my modem and my phone are on the same line and the chances of me viewing a graphic are about as good as a snowball's chance in hell. I didn't participate in the "getting to know you" issue 'cause I wasn't around then. Besides, if you really wanted to know who the hell I was, you'd e-mail me. I don't subscribe to this bible to listen to people slam each other over who's done more for what cause. I applaud TESS77's efforts to unite all of us into a kinda strange community, but like anything else, there will be people who are too damn apathetic to care. (Look at voter turnout in this country for a prime example). And the "punk-as-fuck" attitude is little more than an excuse: it's like being in high school all over again. Personally, I think the most important thing here is the music and the free exchange of the thoughts of people who share a love for the 'Fits. Then again, opinions are like assholes and I'm sure I'll get flames from thos of you who think mine stinks. Oh yeah, and to satisfy the purist crowd of "Misfits material only", I'm still looking for a copy of the Christmas album. At this point I'm willing to send a blank tape to anyone who'll copy it for me, or hire anyone here in Alabama to resteal my copy from the jerk who got mine. smooches and moonshine XXX --punkin "a hairstyle's not a lifestyle" ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Jul 1996 23:14:49 -0600 From: Lattin Subject: Reno Flyers for SF show As a longtime Misfits Fiend finding this page six months ago was the coolest thing that ever happend to me.

It is sort of a bible calendar, but mostly it is a Misfits calendar. It concerns Misfits past present and (potentially) future. Since it sprang from the plumbing of this here tome we all call the Misfits Bible/Misfits Book, I have included pertinent dates for the Misfits and the denizens of the pit called the Bible. Anyone who strikes my fancy may be included at the drop of a whim. So far the data I've collected includes significant dates in Misfits History, commemorations of important events (well, important in my eyes). I've remembered several horror movie figures, including the underrated and overlooked, in true Misfitstyle. Similarly, from the two "Get to Know You" issues of the Misfits bible (issues # 138 and the massive missive just recent) I've culled birthdays of the various Bible subscribers or hangers-on. :) I cant tell you how much amusement it gave me to carefully handwrite words such as on Jan 29, "happy birthday Scumfuck". It's like a dream come true. For the visual, I'm looking for drawings/photos/x-rays of the Misfits or anything Misfits-related. Not Samhain. Not Danzig. But Misfits. If you have anything to offer, or suggest, please contact me at :nrwidow@magicnet.net If you have artwork or photos--Black and white only! And I will do my best to return originals--please send them to me at: Patricia Ragan Hoehner 1681 Boyer St. Longwood,Fl 32750 It is shaping up (as of July 96) pretty well. I am pleased with how its coming along, and I know all of you will think it is pretty cool too. Even the discriminating Crimson Ghost was forced to admit it was pretty damn cool.

Subject: What is going on... Hello to all the fiendies wherever you are... So far you guys have been real slow about sending in your Flames on Mark, whats the deal here. Its funny that all of you can flame anyone else on the bible with out batting an eyelash, but Mark - no way. Shit Mark, you really are beyond REPROACH. These guys must be scared shitless of you. Even for some cool prizes from Bobby, who still is out a phone and i will get the details on his prizes for Fridays bible. Though if he will use some of the stuff he told me we are talking some killer stuff that i would love to have for my own collection. Plus the video footage i have up for grabs came from one of Glenn's Detroit friends. So please start sending in you Flames and no lazy shit this time. Its getting late and i have work just like all of you and i do go to school to. SO if i can post you can write : send it to tes777@bridge.net No screaming at you this time, you won't be so lucky the next!?! NExt on the list, this is for CG, here's one back at you dear. To the psycho path that seems to think we are all brown nosers for liking CG or being friends with him. Well you must be one sad and lonely person who need some attention anyway you can get it. Let me guess you want all the stuff CG gets. People refering to him on the bible, the fact that he knows and had with Jerry, he's friends with Bobby, with Patricia, with Mark, everyone gets along with him even when at times we don't always agree with what he might say, knowing all sorts of stuff about the Misfits and whatever else. Well maybe by getting involved or trying to talk to other bible members you won't feel so alone. That way you will have no need to flame others that have never done a single thing to you. I hope you get the help you need. Oh for the past couple of issues i have heard about the interest of the Misfits being on the Simpson's, has anyone tried to write the people who produce the cartoon and asked if they would do it. Maybe suggest a storyline like the way Bart and Lisa write and send in their story idea to the Scratchy and Itchy show!?! It could go like Bart finds them at a bus stop and some how offers to bring them home for Dinner or a place to stay(which i think one of you already posted that idea), Maybe they go with Homer to Moe's and end up playing a set. The whole idea though is has anyone or will anyone write the show and suggest it!?! well till Friday, hope you guys get on the ball with the Mark Flames. Night Night to the little Bible Fiendies!!!

How nicely put. Can't argue with that, though. It was your idea, without a doubt. And remember everyone, that post from danzigG@evillive.com didn't come from Glenn. It was from @bc.edu. Most of all, remember that it's Michale Graves, and not Michael. It's not a misspelling, it's not a typo. mark ------------------------------ From: cbmed@cdx.net Date: Wed, 17 Jul 1996 10:38:16 -0400 Subject: fools Why would Glenn send a post to the Misfits bible? Those who believe are fools. We all know Glenn hates computers, and it seems he hates the Misfits. So believe what you want to believe. Santa is alive, so is the easter bunny, Mark is a pedophile (it was a cheap use of CIH) CG packs sheep (baaaaaaa), goats, and llamas. BTW I have a bridge to sell, anyone interested?

Petre" Date: Wed, 17 Jul 1996 11:53:49 +0200 Subject: Glenn and stuff I can't believe people actually believe that Glenn Danzig posted on the Bible! now something different: I say that if anyone says anything that bugs you, ignore it. Everytime someone says something stupid, even by accident, everyone jumps on hime like he just raped their sister. It seems as though the whole bible revolves around the same dumb arguments. I think that's because everyone keeps responding. If you think somethings stupid or insulting, say it. Just don't insult back. If you feel like insulting someone, email them. Don't insult them on the Bible so everyone can see how cool you are, yer wasting space. I never read this alll the way through (i scan every issue and read what looks important to me) and even that takes forever! -greg "ai ai ai ai ai" -alpha from the power rangers ------------------------------ From: "Dorin M.

That's what can happen when a person doesn't get enough sleep. By the way Ian and Cara from Toronto Ontario Canada, Didn't you know the box set was ready for stores on april 17, 1978? The people at caroline felt it was "too harsh" for american ears, and the release date was held off for awhile. It was released elsewhere, I have a first press that was released exclusively in Australia, and it's autographed by all the misfits except michale graves, because he didn't know how to write in 1978. there's something you won't find on the goddamned web page. love bloodfeast ------------------------------ Subject: Krystar Crystal Warrior Date: Wed, 17 Jul 96 18:00:03 GMT From: Larry Fuller Hello, fiends... This is my mandatory once a year post. Does anybody know where I can find Marvel Comics Krystar Crystal Warrior #8 ? I've checked just about every comic store between Austin and San Antonio (TX), but no luck. I caught the Misfits show in Corpus Christi last month and it was fucking awesome ! I was a little disappointed because I was expecting Cannibal Corpse to open (I heard the new lead singer is great) but instead some suck-ass band called Manorgod opened. After they finished (their set was mercifully short), I waited 1 1/2 hours for Anthrax to come on stage (they were not bad) and then another 45 minutes for the Misfits ! It was well worth the wait. Micheal Graves came out into the crowd for Hatebreeders (my favorite Misfits song) and I got to sing the chorus ! It was the finest moment of my life ! After the show, I talked the Mike and Jerry for about 10 minutes. It was a pretty good day. Talk to ya'll next year ! warmachine ---- Larry Fuller warmachine@centuryinter.net ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 Jul 1996 16:40:21 -0400 From: Brent Christopher Eyestone Subject: more stuff for sale Hi - Here's a few more CDs I have for sale.

My computer has been down so I didnt post the last bible. I kinda think Glenn is a pussy for not talking to Jerry and Co. about the Misfits. He should have @ least talked to them. I mean, they went to school together and had enough respect to stay together for 6-odd years...he could at least talk to them. Yeah, big fucking rock star. If this is what success does to you, I'm putting my bass down now. This is GenX disillusionment shit but @ least its well founded. They're right...there are no more heroes. The new head fiend Michael graves seems to atleast be at the same level with the fans and fiends, not like Mr. Occulter than fuck Glenn Danzig(see Paul Sabarese's post in #205) FUCK GLENN for not keeping it real. Have you all heard his newest work? It's on the xfiles CD and it sounds like scooby doo background music. Cartoony metal any1? One man is not a band. Glenn is only playing with himself. For someone who isnt a goddamn sonovabitch,he's acting like one. Sorry. Thats my rant of the week > and rikki rachtman >asked glenn about if he ever considered performing any of his old >misfits or samhain (or as rikki said, "sam-hane") songs on the tour.. >and i swear rikki must've pissed himself What has our friend Rikki been up to lately?

Dunn" Subject: Glenn and Dave Matthews Hello, I feel a little out of place posting given that i know very little about the band. However, I ran this by Denmother and she said it would be cool if I mentioned how much she rocks. Well, she does in fact rock. Both she and I know why she rocks and that is all that need be said. The story: In february of this year I saw Dave Matthews play an acoustic show at the Wharton Center, on the campus of Michigan State University. Absolutely wonderful and talented that man is and it was a brilliant show. Anyway, in between songs he was talking about whatever he was talking about and someone from the audience asked him what his favorite song is: Dave: What's my favorite song? (pause) Tomorrow Never Knows, ....or The REdemption Song by Bob Marley (author's note: There is no "The" in front of Redemption Song. This is arguably one of the most wonderful songs ever written. :) ) Then he said that maybe it is this song and began singing a "Watermelon Song" that was funny. After this he said that if it was not those songs then it was the a song by "some guy" and it goes like this....."Mother!" The crowd laughed and cheered as there were people in the crowd that thought it was both funny and/or a great song. That is the post. I thought it interesting how performers some times live in their own worlds. How one man's hero/rockstar is another man's unknown. I dedicate this post to the Denmother. With much love and adoration. md ------------------------------ From: halloween@ezenet.com Date: Wed, 17 Jul 1996 22:41:59 -0400 Subject: get the misfits on dave! Hi, it's Cara and Ian again!

( ive heard rumors of this) MARK: it would be an excellent idea to include misfits concert listings at the end of every issue, this way everyone will know where the misfits will be headed next, and we can follow them on the tour. ive noticed an exceeding # of lamers and an even greater amount of stupid talk happening every issue. people should try to shorten their posts even tho they are really excited about just seeing the misfits etc. etc. The idea of also including a brief FAQ at the bottom of the page, in order to answer 138 related questions is something to bat around as well. and people please!.... rather than encourage people to post often i would rather people post intelligently. QUANTITY IS NEVER AS IMPORTANT AS QUALITY. Know, oh prince, that between the years when the oceans drank atlantis and the gleaming cities, and the years of the age of the rise of the sons of aryas, there was an age undreamed of, when shining kingdoms lay spread across the world like blue mantles beneath the stars... Hither came Conan the Cimmerian, black haired, sullen eyed, sword in hand a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his sandaled feet.

Whoa, baby, more Misfits than Jabathehut could digest! Uh, okay, idea, maybe you should keep the MB under 50-100k OR even better, sent it out in segments. As for the people w/o Internet access, they really should pop the $20 a month for unlimited access. These are the people who think you need to pay AOL prices to get online! The Misfits show in St. Louis did happen, but my dad wouldn't let my brother and I go .... afraid we'd sell our soul to the Demons of B-Movies or something such. There was someone who pissed me off, but I forgot who, so whoever you are, FUCK YOU!!! Okay, lemmie get this straight: Boxed-Set has everything except Walk Among Us, right? Also, are the original studio sessions that Glenn dubbed over for LoB avalible? See you in a day, I guess! ------------------------------ Date: Thu Jul 18 03:42:28 1996 From: Jon Jorden Subject: Bible Shirt Ok a few things... Who exactly is printing this bible shirt? Cause basically all you need for a one color shirt is a silk screen, some ink, photoemulsion & acetate, and blank shirts. This stuff would cost about $5 per shirt to produce in very small quantities. Secondly if you guys are concerned about selling more than 50 shirts (which if you follow the first thing doesn't matter), I really DONT think making the shirt "computer" oriented is a good idea. The misfits aren't about computers... i mean thier songs and image. If you make the shirt a simple, old style 'fits shirt, people will pick it up... including having "fiends" with computers get copies for those without. Well anyway that's what I think. ------------------------------ From: ChristoTer@aol.com Date: Thu, 18 Jul 1996 11:56:41 -0400 Subject: Tape problems Fiends, As you may have heard on the news, the midwest is being plagued with storms. Especially the Chicagoland area. This does include me. This affects several people on this list who have ordered tapes. The following people have orders right here: Jolanta B, Michael J, Jeremy K, Martin T, David D, and Henry B. All of your tapes are pretty much done---the problem is that I have no place to send them. The mailbox I normally hike up to is half way underwater, and the post office was closed last time I checked. Therefore, there will be further delays---hopefully there will be a break in the rain by tomorrow so the mailbox can get dry again, but if not, you may not get your tapes for about 5 more days... I will figure out some way to make this up to each and every one of you. I apologize for these problems, and I hope this does not harm my reputation, if I even have one. Chris ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jul 1996 12:16:19 PST Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #205 From: undead@juno.com (bobby steele) Hey fiends, Here's the info on this Saturday's (July 20) TIMES SQUARE show. Place: the SLEEPING TURTLE - 2 South Chestnut, New Paltz, NY phone # (914)255-0555 Directions: N.Y. State Thruway to EXIT 18 (New Paltz) at the light (299) turn LEFT (this road will become MAIN STREET in New Paltz) Go about 5 traffic lights. You'll see a MOBILE gas station on the far right corner. This is Chestnut. TURN LEFT. The SLEEPING TURTLE is the second building on the LEFT. RE: the FLAME MARK issue FIRST prize will be one of the cut up HORROR BUSINESS sleeves. This is the original sleeve, that was never used due to a bad printing job. Glenn gave me a shitload of these to destroy, and after cutting the fronts from the backs - i realized I should hold on to these. I saved the 'cut' ones to use as note paper. You can't afford the $300.00 going price for the complete sleeve, but if you can cut Mark (our supreme lord and savior) up, I'll give you one of these. Definitely suitable for framing. As Tammy mentioned, she has some interesting video that she's willing to throw in, and I have a video of SAMHAIN - I believe it's from San Diego. I'll even throw in a TIMES SQUARE demo, though I don't know how we're gonna break all this down into second and third prize. NO MARK, you can't flame yourself. TO CG: Whoa buddy. Looks like you've been surfing the "crimson wave". You know you love me. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jul 1996 12:50:44 -0400 From: Brent Christopher Eyestone Subject: more junk mail Hi Fiends - As I mentioned in my previous post, certain members of Slacker, Smackerals of Hunny, and Knuckleheads have banded together to form a distro.

I know I said some stupid shit and probably offended a few people, but I was just so fed up about the active/passive issue. It was getting rather repetitive. I mean, come on. I'd rather read about the last time Glennzig took a shit than read a whole Bible issue on one subject that will blow over in less than a week. Greg, I applaud you for staying out of stupid shit like this. I should have listened to you before I posted on Monday's Bible. Maybe I phrased my argument wrong, and I'm sorry for excluding Mark and Bobby, I mean after all they should be insulted as much as the rest of us right? Yes this is a discussion forum, and I'm thankful for it. There is some great stuff posted here, and other stuff you could get no where else. Now I will take Greg's advice and stay out until I have something cool to say. To the guy who flamed me, some of that was really funny, but why did you take such personal offense to it? There was only one other response to that part of my post, and that was from Greg Petre, a friend of mine, so I understand why he posted. What's the point of trying to vent some frustration if you're going to be shot down? On a lighter note, there is this ska band called Buck-o-Nine that does a tremendous cover of Teenagers From Mars. They are a great band and they do a coooool job of turning TFM into a ska song. C-ya later Nick Chicken "Zounds!"

We will post the entire piece in 2 segments, the first today and the remainder some time next week. We hope you enjoy it, Alot of work went into it. I thought this was going to be easy but lemme tell you writing screen plays is best left to professionals. Some Kinda Ned.... ok, the episode opens with Bart reading the web page on Milhouse's computer. "Mommy can the Misfits Spend the Night" catches his eye. 'milhouse i don't know who these guys are but they look coool!' says bart with that look on his face. 'wow' says milhouse 'but your mom and dad will never let you have a punk rock band stay at your house!' 'leave it to El Barto' says bart with an impish grin. 'mom' says bart, crashing in the door as usual' can i have a sleep over?' 'well i guess so bart, who would be coming?' 'a couple of guys i know from milhouse' says bart 'please mom please lisa has slumber parties all the time! we could sleep in the treehouse!''well bart if its all right with your father its all right with me i guess, but NO GIRLS!' 'no problem Mom!' calls out bart as he rushes over to the couch where Homer is watching baffling mexican sit coms. 'oy, no es muy bueno!' calls the spanish bee from the TV homer is sick with laughter. bart seizes the moment. 'homer can i have a sleepover with 5 guys come on homer mom said its okay with her they'll bring pizza ok?????' 'pizza' says homer and glazes over and drools. 'MOM!" yells bart 'homer says its okay!' ---------- Moes'Tavern has the marquee blinking. TUES KARAOKE CONTEST--WED LADIEZ NITE--FRI MISFITS. Inside Moe is wiping out a beer stein with a filthy rag and eyeing Barney as he wipes the sole drop of foam from the tap with his finger and sucks it dry. 'what's the matter Moe couldn't you get Aerosmith again?' 'no i guess they're too good for me now' says Moe bitterly 'and these guys better have some buying customers with this all ages crap! my secret ingredient for the Flaming Homer--I mean, Flaming Moe is gonna expire soon!' in the back of the bar a case of cough syrup has flies buzzing around it and stink lines coming up from it.

The irritable comic store owner is haggling with glenn about the price of an original Radioactive Man #1. 'I sold it to a little kid for 100buck once, fella' sneers the owner while Glenn picks up the comic and notices that it is only the cover of RM#1 and has a Sad Sack comic inside. He tosses it at the owners face, adjusts his giant skull belt buckle (which keeps sagging down) and stomps out saying 'i'll be back for the signing and then i'm outta here! if it wasn't for that contractual obligation i had to do that gig in Shelbyville I wouldn't wipe my butt with your town!' as he leaves he slams the door causing the store's sign to fall off the door frame and knock him silly he's staggering around with little cartoon birds and planets orbiting his head when Ned Flanders happens by. "well lookily dookily here! a little lost sheep! can i help ya, neighbor?" 'I ....dunno....i feel dizzy.....slight loss of appetite...desire to sacrifice chickens fading....i...i...' he starts to slump to the ground and Ned catches him in his brawny loving arms [cue Pepsi commercial] meanwhile, the Misfits motor into town. 'Fuck I hope we make more money on this show' says Jerry 'these little dives are killin us' Doyle nods trance like 'where we staying tonight?' asks chud Rocky replys: 'some little punk's tree house, hmmm let's see...Springfield...Bart Simpson 'oh shit not another tree house' Jerry & Michale moan simultaneously Rocky continues; 'Bobby Steele has asked to be put on the guest list' 'put him on, anything to keep from paying that pussy his $75' says Jerry 'should we ask him up to play on something?' says michale jerry replies 'nah, Doyle plays better anyway' Doyle grunts and nods again the bus pulls up in front of the Simpson's home. [cut next-door to Neddy's] Ned, Mrs.Flanders & and the kids are standing around Glenn who is stretched out on the couch with an ice bag on his head. 'where am I?' 'you got a pretty good knock to your noodleynoggin, friend!' 'who am I? how did I get here?' Ned speed dials Reverend LoveJoy for advice 'Rev. Lovejoy, I've got a boy here who's got some Atanic-say attoos-tay on 'im and praise the lord, he seems to have lost his memory,poor little fella...' 'Just pray with him Ned, and if he gives you any trouble don't hesitate to call someone else!' 'Toodleydoo, Reverend, and thanks!' ned looks over at the couch where Glenn is now demonstrating the Vulcan Death Grip on Todd Flanders. 'aw, 'innat cute!! Look honey, he's teachin Todd how to kill!' ------------ After a time Glenn is feeling better but still has no memory. The family dinner table is shown, with the whole Flanders clan and Glenn holding hands and singing 'Amazing Grace'. ------------- [cue Butterfinger commercial] ------------- cut to the Simpson family dinner table. Marge is serving tuna noodle casserole to the four Misfits and Rocky. 'do you boys know Bart from school?' Mo and Doyle look at each other and shrug. Everyone is eating voraciously ala Homer, who is enjoying himself immensely. 'Gosh, you know Bart knows Michael Jackson too you know!' brags Homey with his mouth stuffed with food. 'Actually' corrects Lisa 'he knew a lunatic that Dad met in the mental hospital who THOUGHT he was Michael Jackson.' 'yeah, yeah' interrupts Homer. 'hey, do those devilbonks of yours get in your eyes when you bowl?' Bart is completely Misfitsified by now, dressed in leather and panda bear eye makeup, with a yellow yarn knitted devilock hanging in front of his nose. He keeps poofing it to keep it out of his fork as he eats. Maggie giggles and coos happily. All the Simpson stories are shared with the Misfits as they watch the Itchy and Scratchy Special on that evening, as Mo and Doyle lift weights. Graves and Chud are seen doubled over in laughter with Lisa and Homer on the couch as Itchy proceeds to decapitate Scratchy in the classic "This Spurting Life". after the show is over, Bart shows them to the treehouse, where Marge has outfitted it with 101 Dalmation sleeping bags and pillows. Bart is pulling out his Radioactive Man collection when Mo looks out the treehouse window overlooking the Flanders backyard and sees.....GLENN! being baptized by Ned in the birdbath. He gasps and says, who the hell has Glenn Danzig staying with them? Who ARE those people? Bart says, oh just the stupid Flanders family. A bunch of Biblethumpers. Losers, ya know? A smile crosses Jerry's face. To be continued......................... ~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~-=`=-~ "...On the Permafrost..."

I still read the whole thing, anyway. Come on, CG, I'm looking forward to the Flame Mark issue, just because I'm a stupid loser, and my contact with other humans is limited. Sure, it's UNpunk as fuck to have organized activities like this, but I'm convinced that real punks would be too busy destroying things to even post to this list. REAL punks probably wouldn't live very long, for that matter. However, the 138 special issue is a pretty stupid idea... in precisely what way would that issue be any different from every other issue of the bible??? Hepcat - NO, friend, you are NOT the only person on this list who doesn't like Danzig. I nearly shat myself when I heard Glenn was teaming up with some guy from Fight - hahaha that's the band fronted by ex-Judas Priest singer and schmuck Rob Halford!!! Uhh, yeah, that will be pretty cool. aon-1 ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 19 Jul 1996 00:22:57 -0500 From: Brian Cox Subject: Jerry Cantrell playing on the Danzig lbum In bible #205 Thomas Crescenzi wrote: >is it true that the new album has jerry cantrell on guitar? is that >why alice in chains abruptly cancelled their tour? and is jerry going >to stay on permanently with the reborn danzig, or did he just do the >album? I can't positivly tell you he is not playing on the new album but I'm pretty sure he is not. There hasn't been anything on the Jerry Cantrell page and I havn't got anything from the AIC mailing list either. Alice In Chains has no plans to break up so it doesn't seem that likely. The reason they are not touring is that Mike Inez (bass player) is touring with Ozzy right now and it is kind of hard to be in twoi places at once. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 18 Jul 1996 23:26:46 -0500 From: tes777@bridge.net (Tammy S.) Subject: Down sizing... Hello to all the fiends: well its friday and i'm hoping when i read this issue that we got off the topic of active passive as an arguement. This has gone to far i must say. I know that a lot of you were mad at me for what was said but you have to remember i said it in *MY DEFENCE OF WHAT I HAVE BEEN DOING*. What you all choose to do with the Bible is up to you. I had hoped that everyone would realize that we are here for a common interest and that is the beginning of being friends or in our case fiends. I know that not everyone feels comfortable to post infront of this mass amount of crazies. No one wants to be flamed and boy i'm not sure if a new member who read last weeks Friday issue would ever want to post after seeing how i ripped down by a lot of you. Does this mean no more activities or me being me, no fucking way. I'm what you see, though not as loud for quite awhile. The loudness and screaming in your eyes will come back when the need is real. As for the Flaming Mark issue, that is up to you and some of the replies i got are funny as hell. What are the prizes, to bad you won't know till after the the contest is over. Bobby and i think i might make things a little more interesting. Plus let me put it this way the main prize is something you will kick yourself for not participating for. So the rest is up to all of you. As you know CG flamed me, as you also know i'm not flaming back, and you know what the outcome was is not going to be posted cause that is not my style. FOr those of you who will try and flame me for being to holy to flame him, before you start filling up the bible again ***FUCK YOU*** i don't care what you think of how i handle myself. So maybe we can get to posting some interesting stuff, it was nice to hear from Mary that Glenn will be back on tour soon, and the new lp will be out i hope. well time to say chao till Monday, have a nice weekend, try to get your Mark Flames in if you want to play. Later to all you fiendies everywhere!?!

His name is Frank Chester and he is truly an innocent man on death row. To find out more about his case, look for the essay Until Justice is Served under the Death Penalty section of the Bruderhof web site (I am not a Bruderhof member). Recently Frank was transferred from Greene Correctional Institute in Pennsylvania to Pittsburgh because the guards there were caught torturing Frank. They poured acid on his arms, kicked in his rib cage and thre him repeatedly down a flight of 14 steps? Why, you ask? Because GCI was sued by Frank and he won. He charged them with deliberate indifference. He was born with Celiac Disease, a pre- existing conndition that dictates a certain diet to remain healthy. On the street, you can stop it from ever rupturing. In prison, you have to have special foods not on their menu in order to sustain yourself. Frank was denied medication and food by this prison to where he sued them and WON! But the prison guards decided to take matters into their own hands and they beat him. Luckily a warden was on duty and caught the guards. And now he is in another prison. But his health his still in trouble and he is still in danger of being hurt... I just wanted people to know that even on Death Row, there are still cruel acts being carried out, even in maximum security prisons like this... I ask for prayers for my Frank and for you to review his case. Email me for details. I am currently trying to raise $2,500 for some psychological tests to help further implicate the prison and eventually prove Frank's innocence. Write to me at thejimsterguy@prodigy.com if you can help! ------------------------------ From: NghtMary@aol.com Date: Fri, 19 Jul 1996 20:39:08 -0400 Subject: Stuff... Hello Fiends! Somone wanted to know about Jerry Cantrell playing on Glenn's new album.. yes, he is on "Hand of Doom" (Black Sabbath) which sould be pretty cool if they did it the same way Danzig did at a show in Florida on the last US tour. I video taped it and just love the version they did... very cool stuff. Should be incredible with Jerry on it! Also, everyone wants to know why Glenn had The Misfits removed from the hotel. It was because they had camped outside his door and he didn't want to see them. They had gone through all the proper channels (calling friends, band members, and management) and all of these got them the same answer.. "not interested, don't want to talk about it". But being the determined guys they are (they were on a mission) they wanted talk him into it, so they decided to take a chance and go to the hotel in person.. not a good idea. He does not like anyone hanging outside of his room (obviously, who would?) It's a shame it had to come down to that, but you can't blame either one of the parties involved. Keep up the good work Mark.. we luv ya! =) ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 19 Jul 1996 21:06:00 PST Subject: *U*N*S*U*B*S*C*R*I*B*E* ALREADY!!!!

I was behind you last time you threatened to unsub, but now I'm just sick of your complaining so fuck off and go home!! On a lighter note, I was thinking of 138 the other day and came up with a serious thought (who wooda thunk it possible). Maybe 138 was writen after the 138th person joined the fiend club?? wadda ya think?? Also I was thinking about the song "Come Back". Does anyone know if this is about a particular person? If not, what is it about? Is it just Glenn's feeble atempt at writing a love song?? Does anyone else love the drums in that song? HellHound P.S.

But here is my story... My name is Tom and that's just it. As with some present Misfits fans, I got into them through Metallica's Garage Days Re-Revisited. 'Course their version isn't the best and their live version is better then the GDRR version but I digress. I am 15 years of age and the first album/collection I got was Collection II for the most obvious reason, Last Caress. I dug the whole fucking CD and I listened to it ALL the time. Few months later (actually May 22, the day AFTER the Metallica Until It Sleeps single was released) I went through a horrible accident involving a track meet, a 12 pound Shotput, and my head. On the stretcher I did a hand prong while I was bleeding all over my self and being wheeled onto the Ambulance, an act I am still remembered for around here. Lucky to be alive and sustaining a lost tooth, broken nose, and skull fracture, I was hospitalized for two days and released. I didn't have a shirt anymore, so I had a gown on that was tucked into my bloody shorts. My dad promised me a shopping spree at the local Coconuts music store so instead I told my brother to get the following Items while I waited inside the car: Black Sabbath-Technical Ecstacy(a sweet album) and the Misfits Boxed Set. I actually ended up with that and the Randy Rhoads Tribute Album and the Alice In Chains video-The Nona Tapes(Fucking Hilarious). I just loved the whole boxed set. It was what I listened to all day while I was home for that whole ordeal. The deal is, The Misfits are number 4 in my tightly packed favorite bands, all together being 1-Metallica(I'm a heavy Metallica collector) 2-Alice In Chains 3-Black Sabbath (1969-1979) 4-The Misfits 5-Ozzy solo. But I really love the Misfits and once I saw a digest, I went nuts. So this is my big intro. If anyone would like to talk about these other bands as well as The Misfits, hell, E-Mail me. Oh, and my favorite song of the Misfits is Hybrid Moments, is that okay? Tom P.S. Metallica's deceased bassist, Cliff Burton was immortalized with his Misfits grinning skull tattoo on his right shoulder, remember that.... ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 20 Jul 1996 17:27:59 -0700 From: Ken Ward Subject: More punk records for the Fiends.

It's a little long-deal with it! After listening to this collection, the thing that surprised me the most was that it hadn't been done before. D-rod has basically constructed his own "Misfit's "Greatest Hits", but with an added twist-each song opens with dialog from some of the "worst" but classic B-Flicks of all time. All of them are classic, but some stand out above the rest: Die Die My Darling, Both Halloweens, Horror Business, and especially Skulls: From: Plan 9 I, A FIEND? I am a soldier of our planet." Then it jumps to "Skulls" I don't think I need to go into a detailed explanation of each cut-you all know the movies and the songs; however, it's appealing to me because it gives me a new and interesting way of listen to the songs that I've been listening to for the past 13 years. It's a must (for $2, damn I can't buy a beer in most bars for $2) for anyone who likes campy horror flicks, and the Misfits. e-mail D-rod for details. It looks like it could be a money maker to me. With record companies like Rhino releasing tons of punk compilations by periods and themes, it wouldn't surprise me if Glen or Caroline did something like this. Oh, just to give you fore warning: if you think the Misfit's were "just" a novelty act, then scroll past this. I guess I just want to voice my opinion here, its probably been said before, but oh well. There are a lot of ways to judge the worth and talent of bands, and one thing that is important to me is how their songs sound to me and how I feel when I listen to the music. I think we can all agree that the "novelty" behind the Misfit's was their onstage presence and the "shock horror" of their song's lyrics, but there had to be something more there for us to be here talking about them, and people e-mailing me from all over the world to get Misfit's videos. The fact is, the Misfits wrote damn good songs! They may not be musically intricate or intellectually stimulating, but I find myself singing their songs to myself all the time. I'll have a meeting with my boss, and I won't be able to get "Die Die My Darling" out of my fucking head. Or I'll be cutting the grass and for the whole 20-30 minutes be sing "We are 138" or "Return of the Fly" over and over again. Their songs can be so outrageous, but dammit "She," "Last Caress," and "Hate Breeders" are just as catchy and sing songy as "Saturday Night" by the Bay City Rollers, "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" by the Beatles, or "Peggy Sue" by Buddy Holly. The Misfit's weren't necessarily innovators, but they stole melodies from the right people to make their songs almost infectious.

Hey, I like the Simpsons idea. But obviously, you guys aren't taking it very seriously if you really want The Misfits on there. Just constructive criticism. I like the story, but it would NEVER make it on FOX. What am I saying? They have COPS! Ha ha. Yikes! Glenn in Chains? Alice in Danzig? What the fuck is that? C'mon, I thought that the first Danzig LP was okay for a metal album, but every Danzig LP after that wasn't exactly what I would call Music. Just my opinion. Samhain have been one of my favourite bands since 1986, along with The Misfits being my fave for a solid TEN years! How many of you who think you're so elite can say that. So don't tell me that I'm a poseur and I suck because I hate Glenn. HellHound, the Fiend Club wasn't around when We Are 138 was writen. IT IS FROM THX 1138!!!!!!! You goddamn son-of-a-bitches!

Still looking for some Kryst the Conquerer, so if someone has that EP that they are willing to give away, sell, or copy, I am still interested.

Let me know what I have to do to get a copy. Got Uneasy Listening the other day. Damn, was that hard to find. I searched the V section thinking that it would be under Von, but it wasn't. I had given up and was about to leave Tower Records when it caught my eye under the Danzig section. So all of you who are looking for this CD I suggest going to your local Tower and searching under Von, Morance, and Danzig. It will have to be under one of those. I recomend Tower because I saw it in two different stores in two different states, but one was under Von, and the other was under Danzig. Also got Dawn of the Undead, I like it. Love the cover of Ratfink. Well, that's my thought for today. C-ya Nick Chicken "Zounds!"

They're hitting the road tomorrow for the final part of their summer tour. RESURRECTION TOUR '96 (Anthrax, Life Of Agony, Cannibal Corpse opening) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 07/25/96 Reptile House Grand Rapids, MI 07/26/96 Eagles Ballroom Milwaukee, WI 07/27/96 Murat Egyptian Room Indianapolis, IN 07/28/96 Phoenix Plaza Amp Detroit, MI 07/29/96 Ogden Street Music Hall Buffalo, NY 07/31/96 The Strand Providence, RI 08/01/96 Avalon Boston, MA 08/02/96 The Boathouse Norfolk, VA 08/03/96 Capital Ballroom Washington, DC 08/04/96 Metal Fest Cleveland, OH 08/10/96 Pure Energy Colorado Springs, CO 08/11/96 Bricks Salt Lake City, UT 08/13/96 Club Rio Phoenix, AZ 08/14/96 Paragon Tucson, AZ 08/15/96 Soma San Diego, CA 08/16/96 San Bernardino Arena San Bernardino, CA 08/17/96 The Palace Hollywood, CA 08/18/96 The Fillmore San Francisco, CA 08/20/96 DV8 Seattle, WA 08/21/96 Roseland Portland, OR 08/22/96 Starfish Vancouver, Canada 08/31/96 Action Park Vernon, NJ 09/08/96 Convention Center Asbury Park, NJ THE TOUR ~~~~~~~~ The tour will end at Action Park on August 31st, and they're looking for a lot of support at that show, as it's their home-coming show to end the tour. The gates open up at about noon and the show goes all day, with about 10 bands in all, playing on the stage at the park. The Misfits will go on last, around 9pm, and leave around 11pm. Tickets will be available through TicketMaster soon. A benefit show for WSOU FM Radio in South Orange, NJ has been added at the Convention Center on September 8th. This is the reason that the 7/30/96 show was cancelled. Between August 4th and 10th, some of The Misfits may return home briefly and Anthrax/Agony/Corpse will continue the tour without them until they rejoin them on the 10th. However, there's a slight possibility that The Misfits will be playing at those shows - this includes the 8/6 show in Tennessee and the 8/9 show in Kansas. They are also attempting to have shows added in Chicago and Denver. MARS ATTACKS SINGLE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The "Mars Attacks"/"The Hunger" single should be pressed up by mid-September with cover artwork by Ed Repka. The art is already done, and Mars Attacks itself has been mixed. The single will be sold at future shows and through the Fiend Club. Blacklight single will come out after Michale and Doyle touch it up a bit and mix the songs, but MARS ATTACKS will definitely be out first. The Blacklight single features artwork by Pushead. MISFITS BIBLE SHIRTS ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Both guys seemed excited about the idea of The Misfits Bible shirt and are looking forward to seeing a copy of the artwork in the near future. The shirts will hopefully be made by the fall and then sold through this mailing list, probably 240 in all. OTHER (June 26th conversation) ~~~~~ In the future, Jerry would like to tour with local bands opening, to keep the ticket price down and help out some of the bands. However, he doesn't want you to send or give him tapes of you band. He has tons of mail to read and not a lot of time to go through tapes, so he came up with 2 options: 1) have the club owner pick a good local band to open 2) have someone from the Misfits Bible (me) listen to tapes of bands that want to open for them, and I'll send him the best 5 or so. ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 23 Jul 1996 00:32:16 -0400 From: Steve Hatcher Subject: vinyl Is Static Age going to be released on vinyl? I remember hearing that it was going to come out some time after the box set. Also, is Caroline ever going to release "In the Doorways"? I seem to remember that Glenzig sent the copy of it to late to make it on the box, but I assumed that meant that Caroline now does have it. Just hoping they might send it our way. Also, something I thought was amusing last weekend. I'm working in a factory for the summer mixing dye for carpet yarn (probably the worst job I've ever had). Anyway, we had to work last Saturday. The foreman said that we could leave early if everyone finished. After I finished mixing all my dye, I was waiting for the dyers to finish dying (sp?) the rest of the yarn. I got impatient and wanted to hurry up and get home, so I started singing "Dye, dye, dye my darling" to all the dyers. I don't think they quite knew how to take it, but I got a kick out of it anyway. OK, so it was a stupid story. Fuck it, I've got nothing better to do for the summer anyway. BTW thats my dad's address in the header, I can't get to my account this summer, so I'm using his.

Good to see you here again, and thanx for the plug. Well I find the same thing happening to me, the misfits always calm my nerves! I dont know they may be innovaters cause they had this image and raw power and fury to their music like no other, and mixed all together with some quick wit. For instance Bullet, a very dark gruesome song that is kind of funny in way. Funny thing is that being infectious well, I think that the misfits had a big deal in the seperation between me and my girlfriend, her refusal to support my joy in seeing them, and my desire to see them, which just lead to allot of grief, and the ultimate demise of a 3 yr relationship. >From: neil kaiser >Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #206 >Date: Sat, 20 Jul 1996 21:58:54 -0400 (EDT) >They were both great fun.. but Sub Zeros was much more fun... more >Stage diving and meeting the band..

Well at the Asbury park show at the stone poney there was no way you were getting onstage. I think maybe cuz they are close to home and really need to prove themselves , put on the best show possible musically. >Does anyone know about this movie? >The misfits role?

They had something about the Warped Tour, and they showed a clip of Pennywise playing, of all things, Astro Zombies. I was shocked. The 'Fits on MTV, even if it was a cover.

He's killing Rapin Rock and Roll!!! Take Dave Matthews and shove him in Billy Joels ass.

If you can't learn these tunes by ear I'd say give it up now and stick with playing the Tromboner, the Male Organ or The Skin Flute .

After my first post I realized just how damn easy it is to this. Now if I just had something important to say every two days I would have it made. I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank Mark Kennedy for this, the ghoulest page on the net. Like many fits fans I became a fiend to late to ever see the band live. And when you grow up on a 700 acre ranch in the middle of Nevada cool Misfits stuff is hard to come by. So from a mail order company in THRASHER magazine in 1984, I orderd two albums by a band that I had never heard or heard of before. The UPS man brought L.O.B. and Earth A.D.to my door and BOOM a Misfits Fiend was born. Does anybody know how a long time fiend like me might be able to meet or hang with the band after the San Fran show ? Would the cylopedian discs from the Doyle or new fiend club fan clubs help show long time devotion to the Fits? Mark,, I love you man............. Capt.

As we are coming to the final stretch... hello fiends it is now your last chance to send in your flame on Mark. It seems that some of you have been sending in your entries in the past couple of day. Well you have till tonight at 10PM (WED.) Then Bobby and i will go through and pick the top four as i had mentioned earlier. Shit i wish i was getting a chance at the Horror Business half sleeve. Though i'm sure you would flame me for fixing the contest or some other shit. Oh i see that now that people got off flaming on person we are now back to flaming Glenn again. Don't you think this is getting a little old now. Everytime you guys hear something that dim the light on Glenn you say he sucks or he sold out or some other bullshit. It seems that only if he stayed in NJ, with the Misfits, never changed or tried any other music form you lot would be happy. Did it ever occur to you that just like all of us he had to change and go to his next level. How about Michale, shit where would he be? Did it dawn on you that this is where he was to begin his singing career. It is simple, everything happens for a reason and some people can't seem to accept that fact of life. I remember one of you told me that you bag groceries as your job, now do you think that this fiend is going to do that for the rest of his life!?! I don't think so!!! Hopefully this will spark something in those angry little minds of yours. I'm out of here, talk on you on Friday when the winners and all the flames will be posted. later to all you feverish minded little fiendies and even to the guy that borrowed my new word(you know who you are!?!)

Here are some suggestions. In the begining when Bart is on the internet I think it shound start out with him getting porn off it. Like you see from the point of view of behind bart and his head is covering most of the screen. But we can see a womans head with her arm behind it over the top of his head. And Bart says somthing like "Oh Helga!!" real low and sexed up. Or we see him type in somthing obvious like "www.nude.com" and all of a sudden cyberpatrol pops up and Bart says somthing like "Aye Caramba" or "Damnit!". And Millhouse explaines that his parents only want him to use the internet for school work or somthing gay like that. Also I think the past simpsons episode references are kind of boring.

Hola, This is my Mark flame. If I have sent it to the wrong people, then I deeply apologize, for I am stupid and it is very early in the morining without my coffee. Mark, upon reading your pathetic and slanderous bible, I think I need to say a few words to you (about you). I've found out your conspiracy to defame the Misfits and all good music in general, for I know your TRUE indentity. You are none other than that big eyebrowed hiney hobbit, Morrissey. Yes, Mark the seemingly innocent Misfits fiend, is the vehicle for lame ass alternative whiney music. Yes, he lets Michael Stipe shove shaved gerbils in his crunchy blowhole. He takes it, then whines about how Boys II Men are his favorite band. I can hear it now, "Y'know, the Misfits are really neat, and all that, but I think we should talk about something different. I think we should talk about more sensitive artists, ones that really relate to our lives, such as the New Kids on the Block. - Mark." Ugh! You are on my hitlist, boy , and I will destoy you like the wormy fungus you are. It's bad enough that you think you know everything. HA! You know about as half as much about the Misfits that Jean Claude van Damme knows about acting. You don't even deserve to lick the stale colon ramains of GG Allin's cold, dead ass. I think it's about time we take over the bible, Mr. Punk-As-Bob-Dole. You are nothing but a jism catching, music hating, vomit faced rabbit felcher. FOAD! Felch - the act of drinking one's own love fluid using the tongue and lips, right after anally satisfying your lover. [End of flame] I hope that was ok. Not used to flaming. On to more pointless things. Lord B - I liked your Dye-Dye story...Well, _I_ thought it was funny. Everyone - Alice in Chains only played a couple of shows in the north. Down in Good ol' Texas we got nothing but a lame Texas band called Pushmonkey. Minor Threat reforming? I haven't heard that. I've only heard about the Sex Pistols, Van Halen, Kiss, the Stooges, and some big hair bands reforming.. Someone please let me know...am I out of step? Is anybody going to the Warped tour? If so, you are lucky, and I will have to resent you. Texas is totaly getting screwed on the Warped. NOFX, Pennywise, and several of the other big bands won't be playing in Houston. Instead, they are leaving a day early to Europe, and we get 311, fluf, Mr. Miranga, Red Five, and a couple of others. Injustice....grrrr! Does anybody else have the Misfits CD with the baby on the cover "Live at the Ritz"? Bobby, Glenn doesn't say nice things to you in it. Oh well, when you are that short and going bald, you have to be angry about something (hahaha...I'm so EVIL) Texas fiends...email me, dammit! I'm so tired of getting very little email...jhh5109@acs.tamu.edu Be good, ladies and ghouls. Scream at you next time. Hmmmmm...I should end this on a SERIOUS note like that deathdestructionkillkillkill guy... To all the Misfits legions out there, I beseech you. And for those of you that will oppose us, you will taste the black sperm of my vengance, and will be punished to the eternal rantings of my half baked rantings. I've had fun, guys. Take care, and I hope I didn't offend anyone...I've been stuck in the radio station's office for two hours already.

This sounds like a cool idea. My friends are in a band here in St.Louis. I realize they are not coming back through St.Louis this time but maybee next time. They came here before. Concidering the lack of cool bands here in St.Louis I think my friend band is one of the better ones around. I'll send you a tape of them. They don't really sound like the Misfits, they kind of sound more like the Melvins. I'm working on a homepage of my own that I will post some WAV files for people to download. It should be done in about a mounth now. I'll keep you posted. Also, here is a chance to vote on something, My friend are having trouble deciding on a name. They have used Leech and Creepy Smell as possible names. They can't decide what to use. Maybee I could get some feedback on what you guys think about it. Creepy Smell or Leech. This is sort of unrelated but when my friends were recording (they did it in the basement of my house) we have run into a severe problem with micing drums. Nothing seems to work. One time the cymbols sound great but the snare and bass drum is muttled and the next time the snare kicks ass but the cymbols don't really exist. Right now we are usind a four track but one of my friends almost has enough money to but a eight track. Can anybody help me out on this. Everything else is recorded and turned out great. If we could find some way of getting a good tape from the drums it would be the finishing touches to the tape. >Fuck all that noise! If the 'Fits are gonna be on a late night show, >they should wait until 1997 to have their network TV debut on Jon >Stewart's upcoming CBS show. Just my own opinion. There is no reason why they couldn't play all three shows. Dave likes crazy bands so that might be reason enough to get the Misfits on there. ------------------------------ From: Misfitjynx@aol.com Date: Wed, 24 Jul 1996 20:59:04 -0400 Subject: flaming mark just in time flaming mark....what the hell..... the only way you'd get layed is if you killed some blind little child (might be tight enough for the minute dick size), decapitated her,(cuz no one would spread for you alive or dead, even before the rigor mortis set in), fucked every orifice in they're decaying skull until everything finaly rotted and wore through and the eye sockets gave you to many splinters. but have no fear mark, there's a pet shop down the street and a day care right nextdoor. real sorry to hear bout you kids dyin too, but you should of know hamsters have been known to eat the fucked up ones. and mark!!! you cannot leave the ferrets up your ass for more than a week or so!! those things don't feel so nice when body parts squishin out your cheeks and the stench aint much worse than your usual, but it still leaves a rancid smell on your breath after you been lickin up those damn things. so i'm a little crude, i get the point across ------------------------------ From: Hatebreedr@aol.com Date: Wed, 24 Jul 1996 19:04:51 -0400 Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #208 Pennywise playing Astro Zombies?

Says he's videotaping the show. Don't know whether or not to believe him, but it's a possibility. he's got tapes of other bands that played there, so who knows? it's probably not relevant, but he smells REALLY bad. if you bump into him there, i'm quite sure you'll know it's him. if he responds to "Stinky", that's my boy. just tell him "Hippies hate water" (many props to Mucky Pup). Hey, Patty! - I mailed your tape of that Clutch vinyl (Pitchfork) the other day. let me know how it smells when you get it. Marcus - Your mama's armpit's are sooooo GODDAMN hairy, it looks like she's got Buckwheat and Don King in a headlock. (now send me the damn prize.) STORY TIME: (just dying to take up valuable bible space. contact Mark to have me banned.) a fish swimming in a pond spots a fly above the surface and says "if that fly drops 4 inches, i'm gonna eat it." a bear sees the fish and says "if that fly drops 4 inches, and that fish eats it, i'm gonna eat that fish." a hunter in the woods by the pond sees the bear and says "if that fly drops 4 inches, and that fish eats it, and the bear eats the fish, i'm gonna shoot that fuckin' bear." and with that, the hunter reaches into his pocket for bullets, and a hunk of cheese falls out of his pocket on to the ground. a mouse sitting nearby spots the cheese and says "if that fly drops 4 inches and that fish eats it, and that bear eats the fish, and this fucking redneck hunter shoots the bear, i'm gonna eat that cocksucker's cheese." just at that point, a cat spots the mouse and says "if that fly drops 4 inches and that fish eats it, and that big ass bear eats the fish, and that NRA badge totin' Redneck shoots that bear, and that mouse eats his cheese, i'm gonna chomp that little ol' mouse." just then, the fly swoops down 4 inches, the fish surfaces and gobbles the fly, the bear scoops the fish up and gulps and down, and the hunter (from Deliverance, Alabama) blows a big hole in the bear's chest. the mouse eats the hunter's cheese, and the cat attempts to pounce on the mouse, but misses and lands in the pond. So what's the fucking point, you ask? here it is: If the fly drops 4 inches, the pussy's bound to get wet. Richard Pryor ain't got shit on D. Throw your tomatoes at fisherd@cvn.net.

Anyone like 'uneasy listening'? if so, did you like 'Black Aria'? i almost bought uneasy listening but balked because of Caroline's embarrassing sticker proclaiming that "spooky soundtrack music" was contained within...The disc has got pretty cool packaging but that sticker makes the whole thing seem so pretentious and cornball (which it probably is, but they needn't advertise that). anyhow, i was just wondering if it was worth buying for any reason other than Eerie von's releasing it.

Well, the Ramones covered a Beach Boys song, can't recall the name, but anyway the guitar is almost identical to Braineaters. My friend, Timbo bought a Ramones CD the other day and we were listening to it, and it came to this one song and I said, "Hey, that's braineaters!".

I felt it was rude to have a Glenn imposter slander all uf us I mean the real Glenn would not do that. All he has now is his fans, and if someone had not caught on to the descrepency or if it had not been discovered as a joke Glenn would lose what he has now wouldn't he. I have maintained from the beginning that Danzig is my favorite band and you are the first person who has crucified me for that.

I was pissed so I responded there are a million other people here who would do the same just look at some of the past reactions to Bobby and the fires lit by the eternal flamer Wes thomas everyone who was pissed expressed their displeasure.

The single will be out soon enough....be patient. Now, for all of those who watch the "It's Coming Down" video and really think Glenn's necklace is cool (like me), there is a very easy way of making these yourself. First, get a Danzig skull....I think you can get these from Poker Box or through various heavy metal magazines for about $7 a piece. Then go to any army surplus store (or I think some of those metal mags may even sell them) and get a good replica iron cross. The replicas shouldn't be more than $10.....the real ones are more like $60 and they're usually badges......and personally I think my replica is nicer...... Then break off the hoop on the Danzig skull that connects it to the chain. This can be done by carefully bending it back.....then just get some super glue, and glue wherever the cross and skull touch, and there you are! I have no idea why I didn't think about this sooner, and I'm sure a million of you have thought of this, but it really is simple....and I personally feel it's very cool looking..

It seems that the image of hard music is peersonified by satan and that angers me. I'm a practicing Catholic who listens to death metal if the time is right. It's the same thing with how people say "The system sucks". If Rage Against The Machine(shit-band) says that, there is NO need to down your country. If you believe otherwise, move to fucking Russia!

Well to all my fave fiends we got a bit of a delay on the winners for the flaming Mark contest. Bobby and I have read them all and are now having a hard time narrowing them down to the four. Some i have laughed till i started to cry. So are long like the way some of us post. So where does that leave us you might ask!?! Monday's issue will have the winners. I do want to thank everyone who had participated and good luck to you all. To Ken Ward - yes i know you and i see you are selling several of my records that i sold you. To all those who like the Dead Kennedy's most of those records were mine and are in perfect condition. To Warhammer - its nice to see that some of us still stand up for what we like and know where our music came from. Great post a couple of days ago. TO that person who ripped into him, maybe you need to remember that we all do stupid shit and we are human in our ways. But some people seem to think that how dare Glenn do anything mean or wrong to the way they see it. He has to stand up to every confrontation, dare he be like any of us who might not want to deal with a situation. Its funny since Jerry and Doyle don't have malicious words to say about him. Why don't you just say what your thinking. Glenn had some nerve not to be lead singer of the Misfits again, fuck what he wants to with his life, he has to satisfy the bunch of us. Yeah and I now own NBC, Mark beat the shit out of Bill Gates and is heading up Microsoft, Bobby is the lead singer for the Rolling Stones, Jim is really the real Crimson Ghost from the movie serial back in the 1940's they found a way to make him immortal and ageless, and Patricia really gave birth to us all(kind of like the Village of the Damned, but more the Village of the Fiends). Shit if you believe that i think i i do have a rather large piece of land to sell you called the Everglades, alligators, panthers, mosquitoes, and several dead bodies that they are still searching for. well that is it for now, if you thought this contest would be over and out of your face to bad, shit happens. Face it there is no such thing as perfection in everything we do. Pencils have erasers for a reason and i hope we can get past the ripping Glenn and anyone who likes him shit. till Monday, have a great weekend to all of the fiendies!?!

Misfits Bible, Number 210 Monday, July 29th 1996 Today's Topics: Danzig news blahblahblah 'fits/Sab parallels Box Set problems, Misfits font Re: Misfits Bible, #209 Punk Chuck update Bible #209 Danzig just some fucking reactions Milwaukee Last Night post-Milwaukee show and crap Misfits sighting Reply to: Misfits Bible, #209 Rip ? verotika MISFITS - Small Club Show Was EXCELLENT!

Thye also mention that Chuck's in Social Distortion, and that Cannibal Corpse, Anthrax, and the Misfits are currently on tour... EV's hotline (currently featuring that live Danzig "Hand of Doom" that Mary mentioned) says that Danzig will (possibly?) be doing some shows starting in September with a bunch of other bands (I believe he said Slayer was one), headed by Ozzy. He said that they have the Blockbuster Pavillion in Hollywood booked for Halloween. He mentioned the "Hand of Doom" cover on Danzig V, and wondered aloud whether or not Ozzy would come onstage with Danzig at one of the shows... finally, some Marvel Comics out in the last few weeks have a Bullpen Bulletins page with a plug for the new Venom ltd. series, which quotes the lyrics for "Braineaters" (slightly incorrectly though) -Brett ------------------------------ From: JHH5109@acs.tamu.edu Date: Fri, 26 Jul 1996 11:49:57 -0500 (CDT) Subject: blahblahblah Hi.

Add more as you think of 'em. Both have only one original member still in the band. Both had lead singers that are (sadly) more successful then when they were in their original band. (Glenn/Ozzy) Both of the former lead singers have 4 letter names(O-Z-Z-Y, G-L-E-N) or if you spell Glenn with 2 "n" 's... Both have double consanants in their names (nn/zz) To some, the former lead singers were considered better in the original band. Again, to some, the former lead singers are considered traitors. They both rule. The both former lead singers(jeez, I should make it a Glenn/Ozzy parallel!) do not have the original line-up in their solo band. (I recently read something about John and either Eerie or Chuck leaving Danzig, as with Ozzy, well don't even make me get into that) They both have influenced popular bands of today(The Misfits influenced the Melvins Black Sabbath influenced Biohazard[one example] and they both have influenced Metallica and White Zombie) Both bands have a thing for the color black. And now, maybe some differences... The Misfits are more on the glam side Black Sabbath is just the styles of the times. (Bell bottoms in the 70's, etc., etc.) The Misfits (in my opinion) have a greater following with the present line-up then Black Sabbath (again, in my opinion), who doesn't. The Misfits are more of a speed Punk/Metal band. Black Sabbath is mostly a Classic Metal band. Maybe a coincidence, maybe not. If you think of more, jost post 'em under subject "'fits/Sab parallels". Thanx!

This is the first I've heard of that one, but I know there were a lot of people on here when the Set first came out who were stoked because their copy came with two enamel badges. That sounded cool, until I went into a record store near my parents' house that had a stack of about six Box Sets they were selling cheap, because they came with NO enamel pin. Plus, a lot of people have complained about the cheap plastic the cases for the CDs were made with. I think Caroline has a pretty good design department working on the concepts for their packaging, but their manufacturing is Cheap-O-Rama and they try to cut costs every conceivable way. If it was me, I would probably try to return that copy of the Box Set with no booklet, and if the store wouldn't take it back I'd try to contact Caroline and voice my opinions on their bad manufacturing. Of course, any new material the Misfits put out is going to be through Cyclopean Music, and not Caroline, so it probably isn't going to be an issue from now on. * * * * * Then, as far as a Misfits font goes, I think I remember hearing once that someone made it, but I could be wrong. As you all oughtta know, the current logo was "extrapolated" from the logo for FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND magazine. Some of the letters don't exactly follow from one logo to the next, which makes it kind of difficult to do a font, if your definition of a Misfits font is to have the Misfits logo appear when you type "Misfits". You'd be better off looking at a copy of the Misfits logo and the FAMOUS MONSTERS logo and working out the words you need by hand, by yourself.

Walley" >I don't know if anyone else has ever noticed this, but maybe the >denmother has, being a big Ramones fan and all. Well, the Ramones >covered a Beach Boys song, can't recall the name, but anyway the guitar Actually, the ramones used to cover Surf City by Jan and Dean, but that doesnt really sound like Braineaters. They also California Sun, i forget who sang that originally but not the beach boys (unless they also covered it), but that dont sound like braineaters either. As you'll find with most misfits songs, they are straight forward chord progressions that you can find in most 50s or 60s songs, and then again in most punk rawk. If the Misfits do end up on the simpsons, it would be for the halloween special (where else?) and those are usually 3 or 4 mini episodes within a regular episode. So they can conceivable find 8 minutes or so to base a special on the misfits. Tonight its time to go scalp tix for Kiss at MSG. I dont know why but I keep wishing they come out and kick into Halloween like the Misfits do! ------------------------------ From: X Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #209 Date: Fri, 26 Jul 1996 13:35:04 -0400 (EDT) > From: Dave Naked > Subject: i like did marks mom....or something > > 1.

I totally agree with you. I'm really sick of this total punk image thing going around. The way I look at is you either like the band or you don't. It is as simple as that. There doesn't need to be a stereotypical way you have to look to like any band. >What would be your reaction if Eerie, john, and chuck got a new >singer and carried on as 'Danzig'?

First off, the Alice In Chains thing had a definate relevance since Jerry Cantrell is going to play guitar on something with Danzig. I forgot what it was but he is doing it anywhay. Maybee somebody can remind me. Secondly, how can you say that danzig has no relevance. Glen Danzig was the Misfits for many years. Yes, I just he was the Misfits. Without him there would be no Bible.

First Mr. Metallica fan with no name that I could find (WarPigz@aol.com), I never said you didn't have all that shit. What the fuck does heavy metal have to do with The Misfits? I hate metal! I saw Metallica last night in Dallas and they SUCKED! The Ramones were VERY cool, though! Sex Pistols Friday! Oh, and Mike, right on! There must be thousands of places to talk about Metallica, Alice in Chains, Bon Jovi, or whatever else some of these fiends listen to. D. Evil, can't you understand the concept of cynicism? I was being sarcastic with those "comfortable enough with my punk status' lines. Fuck! I don't try to be more punk than anyone. I like being an individual, and I don't worship Jello Biafra. Jim, I will be going to the Dallas 'Warped' show, and yes, I live inTexas, and I will e-mail you. And finally, Tammy! You ripped me off! That California Uber Alles was NOT a first press. Optional was the second pressing, plus that was the second press that Optional did! The Holiday in Cambodia single was a bootleg (albeit a good one), and The Dils record was scratched! I could go on! Before anyone decides to say I'm a fucking whiner...I don't care what anyone thinks. I am aware that this post has nothing to do with The Misfits whatsoever, but I just needed to drop some mail. Actually, I do have a Misfits-related thing. I was dehydrated at Lollapalooza yesterday, so I left after The Ramones to sit in my friend's car. I didn't want to watch Steve Earle, Soundgarden, or Metallica. Unfortunately, I could still hear the music in the car. I was really sick, and eventually threw up!

This is due to the fact that they headlined Metal Fest 10. This is a two day event with over 60 bands. 2 stages, one upstairs and one down. The stage downstairs features death metal constantly. I don't understand this crap, but headbangers love it. Now they also have death metal upstairs on the big stage(the stage isn't big the room is and the acoustics suck, cause it's made for boxing). The Misfits came on at 1:10 A.M. which is late for me. They came on after Anthrax which meant out of the 1000 people there, 700 of them left. So the 300 of us left in this giant room, were treated to the wonder of the Misfits. My first impresssion was how huge Jerry Only is. My second was how Michael looks very innocent, then how cut and huge Doyle is. Dr Chud who I could hardly see, looked very average. The fits ripped into there set only to be plagued by the guitar and vocals cutting out during Static Age and again during TV Casualty. The guitar continued to cut out thru the whole set. Everyone seemed in good spirits. Jerry smiled the entire time. Michael sounds more like Danzig, than Danzig would himself. No shit! His only problem is his lack of any confidence, but they seem very patient with him. By the end some of the audience was seen worshipping him. He also seemed to get winded or tired by the middle of the set. Do they always play like they are in a hurry to get done? I felt a sense of urgency. Everyone seems to have so much Fucking energy! Overall the Misfits ruled, but they didn't convince this crowd. I don't know if everyone was tired or what the deal was but only 20 people called for an encore. They sure the hell looked real good, except Michael who looked like a wet rat by the end of the show. This boy needs some muscle. The best song was Come back. Oh, the new songs( I heard The Hunger and Blacklight) were really great. Some of the best songs the Misfits have written especially Blacklight. The set was the same as always, but I think the Encore was Green Hell, Queen Wasp, Bloodfeast?, Mommy, Come Back, Night of the Living Dead, Die, Die My Darling. That's all.

I won't bore you with a review of the show, but I will bore you with my post show experience. What everyone has said about the guyz is 100% true. They are great. Especially Jerry. Michale seemed kind of reluctant about coming out of the bus, but he did, and he signed stuff which was cool. Doyle just left and stayed in the bus the whole time, he seemed kinda shy. C.H.U.D. was cool and he signed stuff too, but Jerry was by far the best. He stuck around to sign stuff, and he also was really nice to everybody and he stayed around and talked to us for a couple of minutes. He is a real people person and makes you feel comfortable. One minute you're thinking "Hey, I'm meeting my favorite band ever, my God, what do I say, what do I do?" and then Jerry comes up and talks to you and you just become comfortable around the guy, and you can end up asking even the stupidest of questions just 'cuz he's so down to earth.

Some of this stuff has been talked about before but I'll say it again. On page 9 there is a small piece on Danzig. The new record will have former Danzig-tech Laizie on bass, and former Fight guitarist Mark Chaussee on guitar. It also features, as you all know, Jerry Cantrell on a few tracks. This piece also says that this album is a very "industrial" sounding record. It also goes on to say that after a very touchy legal battle with American recordings, it looks like Danzig will be leaving American and signing to Hollywood Records. A late summer/early fall tour is in the works. On the same page there is a little piece on Type O Negative and their new album, October Rust. At the end of this article it says that Type O will be contributing "Vampira" to an upcoming Misfits tribute record on Caroline Records. ...Marino aka ghostbuster ------------------------------ From: "Cheryl M.

Subject: MISFITS - Small Club Show Was EXCELLENT! (A copy of this message has also been posted to the following newsgroups: alt.punk, alt.music.hardcore) Heya all. Now dont get me wrong - I had some SERIOUS doubts when I heard that the Misfits were back together. I thought, "No Glenn?? No way." I saw them in Detroit on the first leg of their tour this Spring, and I was very entertained by it, for about 6 or 7 songs, and then I felt like I was watching a cover band. The place was PACKED and annoying. And had a large contigent of racist skins as well who made life pretty miserable for anyone around them. It was a very "difficult" show to get through, party because I don't like Saint Andrews in Detroit a whole lot, and didnt really enjoy the crowd. I saw a guy get his face split open by a naziskin not more than 10 feet from me and my friends (most of which who are Jewish...) Okay, so fast forward now to last Thursday night. I was sitting here in East Lansing, MI and I found out that in 4 hours, the MISFITS were supposed to play in my hometown - Grand Rapids, MI. The show was BARELY publicized, and I found out about it mere HOURS before the show started. No one was in town, I was bored out of my mind, and I figured, "What the hell.." So I had someone jump my car battery (my car has been dead for over a month), I grabbed my crap, and hit the road, bound to get to GR in less than an hour in a car that hadnt seen action in a month. I got there and the line was pretty long. Turns out that the show was a warmup show for the second leg of their tour. They were slated to play in Milwaukee on Friday, and were on the way and decided to stop in Grand Rapids to play - WHY I have *no* idea. Grand Rapids is the second largest city in Michigan, yet it is still very conservative and very "behind the times" in a lot of aspects, and they do NOT get bands like this in town all that often. I mean like the MISFITS and all.. So we go in, and hang out - there was some loud and typical band opening up for them, and we decided to get something to drink and go sit in the other room, as I met people at the show who I had not seen in years. So we go into the other room, and Jerry is there, just kind of standing there. Not really for any REASON, other than to just talk with people. We must have talked with him for about an hour, at least. We got several pictures taken with him, and I asked him a lot about touring, how the European tour went, how it was different than touring in the States and a lot about their "Chiller Theatre" stuff that they are doing - a series of B-horror films with intoductions and discussions by Jerry and the band. They built a huge set in a barn that they have, and made fake castle walls out of styrofoam and really put a lot of work into it. So why am I going on and on about this? They were EXCELLENT that night. I mean EXCELLENT. I havent been to a show in ages where the band has been more energetic, and really INTO what they are doing. You could tell that they were loving it, and were making sure that the people that came to see them were loving it too. None of that "rock star" shit that they have been being accused of by people saying that they reformed for the cash. They were all VERY genuine, and very down-to-earth. Not at all the typical "rockstar" types that they are being made out to be by some. They even had their families with them on the road, and a friend said that he saw one of them walking around with their little kid. Hehehehehhh.. Their crew wasnt just the "crew", they ALL were a team, the band AND their technical people. We hung out with one of the techs all night, and even lifted him up halfway through the night, when Jerry yelled, "All riiight!!" and gave the roadie a thumbs-up. Small show, but big in emotion. Anyways... I doubt that the MISFITS will EVER be as rewarding in a large arena as they are in a small club... The show I went to last Thursday night was small - about 300 people - and seemed just right. They played EVERYTHING I wanted to hear, and came out after playing a very long, exhausting set. They were able to play off of the crowd, and even Jerry jumped on top of the kids a few times during 'We are 138', while a small guy in a Crimson Ghost mask took over bass duties. And if anyone gives Michale any shit about not being "Danzig", thats too bad. He's a great guy, has an excellent voice, and fits right in. If you EVER have a chance to see these guys in a small place, do so by ALL means. You won't regret it. And do NOT be afraid to talk to them, like they are normal people - all of them are super nice, and really like meeting people. ...bri... ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 28 Jul 1996 21:43:35 -0400 From: "Joan L.

Well fiendies, I just got home from the Misfits show in Detroit, and am still surging with energy. Be afraid, be very afraid. Okay. Mandatory show review: The Misfits didn't play nearly as long as they did last time I saw them. They opened with Halloween and then flew into Horror Business (I think) and then I Turned Into A Martian. They ended with Mommy and then 138, but the PA got cut out in "We Are 138. " Michale Graves was wearing a red shirt like the crew does, but this one had the sleeves hacked off in a typical punk way. He was also sporting vinyl (?) pants and the single coolest belt I have ever seen. I didn't get a chance to talk to him, though. Doyle was really kind of a zombie. I waited around after the show for him, but did he show up? No. Well, actually he did, but it took him a long time. He just signed my stuff. I said thank you. He signed somebody else's stuff. Darn. According to a girl in a red dress who I think may be Chud's girlfriend, although I'm not sure, said that poor old Chud was very sick. This was confirmed by Jerry who said that he hoped the drummer wasn't too sick to play. Poor guy. Let's all make the good Doctor a Get-Well-Soon Card. Now for the gem. I actually got to talk to Jerry, and unlike Doyle, he talked back. Here's our dialogue: Me: Read the bible lately? Assorted Punks: Ha Ha Ha! Jerry: No. Me: We're gonna make fun of Mark tomorrow. Jerry: Reeeeaaaally. I think that maybe he thought I was talking about the regular bible rather than the Misfits bible. He seemed a bit baffled. He was real nice, though. He kept on telling us how cool this was, and how nice the weather was and stuff. He was so genuinely happy that it was easily worth the fifteen dollars to see his happiness. I know that sounds weird, but it's the truth. Oh well. I am now thirty-five dollars poorer. My ears are barely ringing. My Evilive insert is signed by three out of the four current Misfits. My friend Kime pointed out that Jerry has really small nipples. I started laughing. Now I must ramble. Mark. That thing you said about asking for Rocky for pictures didn't work. We asked at the door for Rocky, they told us no. We asked Jerry before the band played. He directed us to a Crew Member with long hair. He kept us waiting forever. He told us that we could take pictures, but it was too late to get a photo pass. We head out to the car to get the camera. The security people tell us no cameras without a photo pass. We tell them how Jerry said we could. The security lady calls us liars. No Misfits pictures. Sob. To fiends who stayed past the Misfits: Oh, and as I was leaving during Clutch, I saw the Pontiac Riot Police pulling up. Did the show get shut down or anything like that? During Anthrax, there were 9 cars worth of pigs. Too darn many cops. I apologize for the longness of this post, blah, blah. -Chubbs ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 29 Jul 1996 00:57:21 PST Subject: where eagles shit...

I just got back from seeing the band in Indianapolis 7/27. First, Anthrax was ok, no big deal. I used to love them when I was into metal around 1986, but they didn't play much of that stuff. I missed Cannibal Corpse but really, it's Cannibal Corpse who cares. I guess I inadvertantly met one of the band members later though. But most importantly, the Misfits played a pretty good show. I wasn't too enthused about the big fake spikes on the drum set or the spike-ringed logo prop in front of it, reminded me of Motley Crue. But the band rocked. Of course, I was eager to see Michale and form an opinion of my own. I have to say, honestly, the guy is good. I had no problem at all with him, he's got a great voice and was able to hit all of the righteous bothers style vocal melodies. He had good presence and seemed like he belonged there. He shared the mic a few times and jumped into the crowd. Actually I think he may have missed the crowd on time and hit the retaining fence, but I couldn't see exactly. Jerry seemed to be having a great time and Doyle was ripped, as in muscular. The show lasted maybe 1:45 with one encore and the crowd was into it. There was a constant pit starting about 3-4 people back. I was a little dismayed that Last Caress and Green Hell got twice the response that eveything else did. I guess these kids listen to metallica. I had a great time jumping around and singing along with everyone, and I was very pleasntly surprised to here so much of the static age stuff. Anyway, here's the set list: Halloween - Horror Business - I turned into a Martian - Death comes ripping - All hell breaks loose - the hunger - Static age - TV Casualty - Hybrid moments - Last Caress - Skulls - Devil's whorehouse - Returnof the fly - Teenagers from mars - Children in heat - Violent world - Vampira - (after this I loose track of the order) Hollywood Babylon - Ghouls' night out - London Dungeon - Hate Breeders - Attitude - another new song, Blacklight, I think - We are 138 - Night of the living dead - 20 eyes - Astro Zombies - Bullet - Mommy - Die, die my darling - (Encore) Green Hell - Devilock - Bloodfeast - Come back - American nightmare. Again, I'm not sure the order is right, but those are all the songs. I guess they replaced Angelfuck with Return for this show. The most exciting part though is that I interviewed Michale and Jerry after the show for WIUS radio where I DJ. Michale was very cool and easy to talk to. He says that they've got 5-6 songs recorded now and the single will be out in a couple of weeks, with the LP following in march or April. He says he's been listening to stuff like Nirvana, Type O Neg., Sisters of Mercy and Bauhaus. I asked him about playing with bands like Anthrax and C. Corpse and he said, "I don't know why we're still playing metal fests. Whoever's pulling the strings, whoever's setting us up... there's something wrong. I hate metal, to tell you the truth, I don't enjoy it. Y'know, Canninbal Corpse, y'know they're a good band and I'm not going to slight anybody but..." I also asked him about the whole new guy issue and the Glenn comparisons: Michale - "I feel better about it. I'm past that. I used to think about how everybody was going to compare me to Glenn, y'know I'm doing my own thing." Then he brought up that he had read the Bible post saying that he must have watched old Misfits videos to copy Glenn's act. Michale - "I made it a point to never watch any of those video tapes. I knew they were out there but I didn't want any picture in my head of how I was supposed to look, y'know. What I do is what I do." I agree, the guy is good. Trust me, I saw Bad Brains with HR and without HR and that was awful. Michale is great, he really seems to be making a place for himself in this band. Michale also was worried about somthing a fan threw onstage, a little black drawstring bag with a white "R" written on it, and carrying little pebbles and two pennies. If anyone knows what this means, write to him. As for Jerry, when I interviewed him it was outside signing autographs and there were a lot of young kids essentially asking Uncle Jerry to tell then a bedtime story about the old days, it was really funny and cute. The guy is great with the fans. One kid asked him about haunted houses, obviously referring to the Horror Business recordings. Jerry admitted that it was bullshit, that they recorded in a studio and they couldn't get rid of the mystery noise, so they said it was done in a haunted house. Jerry - "years later I read interviews with Glenn and he says 'we walked into the house and there were snakeheads and blood', yeah fuck that! I mean, if you're gonna make up a story, you don't bring it back up and elaborate on it, you kinda let it go." The interview is from Flipside 31 (Apr. 82) As for the tour? Jerry - "We didn't try to step over our heads. A lot of people wanted us to come out and try to make a lot of hype, build the hype, and then step on the plateau that the hype created, and I just thought that was out of character. I thought the misfits should start from the bottom where it belongs to start. This is a new band, y'know we're not trying to live up to the hype of the old band, and we're not trying to come out and be a bunch of rock stars. We're just tyring to come out and play really hard every night." The new stuff? Jerry - "Classic songs. I think that they're gonna be a lot better than stuff like 'Martian'. I think they're not gonna be as thrashy as the 'Earth AD' stuff, but I think we're gonna find a happy medium between the 'Walk among us' kind of sound and the 'Earth AD' kind of sound, and I think you'll find one or two 'Theme fo a Jackal' type songs on an album." No 'Spook City' tonight? Jerry - "Nah, I always hated that song. 'Spook City' is just a cheap 'American Nightmare'. Too bad, I love Spook City. There's a lot more to the interview, and when I transcribe the whole thing, I'll post it. These guys rock, and they're really nice. I guess they read the bible now and then, so Jerry, Michale, Doyle and Chud, thanks a lot.

I was just making note of what the guy said in his yearbook. I just felt it was kind of ironic. I mean, James the metalhead probably would have laughed at the misfits back in the day. But of course, that is just my opinion. And I agree with whoever said we should get the Misfits to go on the new John Stewart show. I can't wait till he gets back on the air and the misfits would be perfect as his first musical guest. So does anyone know what "Angelfuck" is about? I didn't see any responses. Later Roger Holmes, the guy that thinks James is just a sell out alternative wannabee peice of shit. I mean, what the hell is "Load"? Load of shit maybe. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 28 Jul 1996 22:10:55 -0400 (EDT) From: Patricia Ragan Hoehner Subject: News Flash! CG out of the Closet! well heres something special... now that i have yr attention! This very week, the very selfsame Crimson Ghost who is totally disgusted with all Misfits fans and the like, played me, the vastly underrated denmom who while friendly with past, present and future actual Misfits(tm), is actually woefully and blissfully unfamiliar with many recordings made by said group--no less than 4 versions of "Astro Zombies" ! while pointing out the differences and similarities of each version! I found this fascinating. Just so you all who say, "oh that there CrimsonGhost, he aint no Misfits fan!" he's probly a bigger and more obsessive fan than most of you. So he's outta the closet now, y'all! he's REALLY a Misfits fan! probably a Danzig fan too, but you never know. Still workin on the Misfitsimpsons episode. still love ya too, fiendtroop. --denmom patricia "armageddon, its gotten--no savior jailer can take it from me! world ending? it's just beginning! and rocknroll is what i'm born to be.." --- also sprach the widow Sonic, the orig. riot gurl Patti Smith said that in 1977 ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 29 Jul 1996 00:45:49 -0400 (EDT) From: Frank Fama Subject: Danzig iron crosses Chris Ternes suggested buying an iron cross and affixing a Danzig skull necklace to it; if you can track down one of the pins of the skull, that makes it much easier. just drill holes into the cross and stick the "spikes" of the pin through them. then bend the spikes back and cover them up with tape or something (unless you want to scratch your chest). i made one like this about 3 years ago and it's held ever since. except the cross is not that good, so I'm waiting to get a replica of a real one...(EVB, you still alive?) -brett ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 28 Jul 1996 23:14:22 -0500 From: tes777@bridge.net (Tammy S.) Subject: So what is the deal... Hello to all you fiends : and to beat you to all the flames, all the well now look how long it took crap or it was not worth you wasting our time. Bobby has been having modem problems which stem from Phone problems and has been using his parents computer. We have been going crazy narrowing down the last 2, these are so good its been hard. Also we have been busy to boot. So this is it on Wed and you already got my e-mail Bobby *DEAR* we will finish and have all four winners posted *PLUS ALL THE FLAMES THAT WERE SENT TO ME* So please be patient and we will finish on the 31st. Next i know i got flamed in this issue and the guy is a friend of mine don't rip this shit out of him or stop from buying his records. Most of those used to be mine anyway. Dave i doubt that Eerie, John and Chuck will do what your talking about. It would make no sence for them to take a name that he has been using as his last name for over 20 years. Pudas13 - and this is to everyone and the last time i will try to get this clear. The active passive thing has gotten out of control. All i ever did or said in that issue of the bible was to defend myself from comments made by Rob Brustman. It was never ment to go out of control and make you people crazy about if you were active or passive members. That is up to you and to what degree you would like to be or feel comfortable in being active in the Misfits Bible. You don't have to be posting every other day, or participate in every event. The bible is what you make of it for yourself. I like the interactive aspect since most of my friends are not into the Misfits. Its not fun when someone could give 2 shits if you told them you got an orig. Cough/Cool after searching hither and yon. So enough of am i active or passive. shit if i go on vacation i'll be considered passive. DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO!?! on that note its time for me to take off. winners on the 31, and all the other posts, see ya then. Later to all the fiendies out there in Bibleland!?!

They played a relatively short set (about an hour, but it seemed like less) that included all of my old favorites (Skulls, Hybrid Moments, etc..) plus both new songs. Jerry was signing stuff before and after the show, he is the friendliest guy ever. He said that they didn't like how Blacklight turned out, so they are going to re-record it. Michale Graves was just roaming around after the show, he was also very happy to sign anything that we threw in his face. I saw the Fits' last time they came to Detroit and I think that they were better in the smaller venue, but I still have no complaints. Also, during Anthrax, I guess the crowd got a little rough and a few guys in the front were randomly punching people in the face, so the Pontiac police sprayed tear gas into the crowd. This caused people to rush away from the stage, and a lot of people got hurt. It seems like lately anytime I go to a show there's always a few assholes who have to ruin it for everyone. Well, that's it for now. MissFit ------------------------------ From: Warhammer Date: Mon, 29 Jul 1996 10:23:03 +1100 Subject: happy thoughts DEath, destruction, desolation, despair, Just wanted to grab all of your attention!! The Warhammer has once again arrived Just wanted to say that I am still looking for a ride of some sort to cleveland for the Meatalfest I must go FIrst of all the Misfits are a must see But I love Anthrax as well as Bruce Dickinson, I have not heard any new Cannibal corpse but their old stuff was shit in my opinion but I heard they are better now so I want to be fair and give a listen. The big sleeper success(in my mind) however is a band I discovred about 4 years ago from Lakewood Ohio, They were a band called The SPudmonsters(shitty name) they fukin rule!!!!!!!! With songs like Self proclaimed expert, not guilty, death sucks, garbage day, and beer how can a band not be good. Well I really want to go. Responses to last bible: To dave my answers to the opinion questions are as follows 1) the first kid I hear say that ("...they must of sucked then") is going to get a beaten bloody corpse. But I digress I think it will spawn new followers especially by playing at the Meatalfest with all the other big names 2) I would lose what little respect I still have for them and would have to undeclare Danzig as my favorite band and just say that Glenn is my favorite band because John, Chuck, and Eerie are shit without Glenn behind them writing the songs however I don't think they can use the name Danzig because Glenn would not give them the rights to it. bottom line there is no Danzig w/o Glenn Danzig. there is misfits w/o but not Danzig Blasto I agree with your comments about glenn Glenn is awesome I see the logic behind your cashing in argument but I have yet to hear any new fits so I will reserve my opinion until that day.
