Some guy also came up to me and said i was being to ROUGH >in the pit and that someone was going to get hurt? WHAT THE FUCK IS Well, I think this person sounded reasonable. What IS the purpose of being rough in the pit? I don't mind people dancing a bit, and I know people will be colliding, but why try to? why run into people? why elbow people trying to watch? Shouldn't you go to a concert to hear the band? I know I do... well, at punk shows you might NOT want to hear the band. So I guess you can go on kicking arse. Mr Thomas Undermine politely asked me to engage in oral sex(no thank you), and then said this: >Just because you don't know the definition of icon or can't accept the I know what an icon is, it's just that I don't think that a punk icon is that great of a status. >fact that some people regard art as a sacred offering of some sort, >doesn't mean others can't feel differently. What?! Now punk is ART?! If I sit on the street and beat myself over the head with a salami (which, like punk, anyone can do), is that art, too? >about. I don't want to see this integrity flushed down the toilet by >posers like you. Oh... now I'm a poser. Listen buddy, I know what I like. Do you see me trying to fit into your so-called punk "lifestyle". At least I have an open enough mind to listen to other types of music, including "MTV pop crap". Get off of yourself, and YOU watch what words you use. Don't call someone something when you have no reason to say it.

Once this was a forum for some very relevant discussion regarding Mis./Sam./Dan./Und. but it has now deteriorated to the sort of newsgroup type foundationless remarks that were once unheard of here in the Bible. For almost the first time ever I agree with CG; Big Daddy Roth, Anzalone, Talus: these things were discussed many times long ago. What about new subscribers? Every Bible backissue can be read on Mark's page. Maybe after reading them, you can understand the regression that has occurred. I know that some you know what I mean. I only subscribed recently, but I've been readind the Bible via the web page since the days when everyone was talking about 4p and Metallica's summer tour. Misfits related topics were discussed back then with insight by the likes of CG and EVB and the rest ( you know who you are.) Also, I can't beleive that Danzig can be considered off the subject when entire issues go by with hardly any mention of the Misfits(excl. the moot Geffen "debate"), but plenty of talk about the definition of punk. This list has become a digital means for punks who got into punk two months ago to tell those who got into punk one month ago that they are posers. I don't mean to generalize, but this sort of punkedness/selling-out theme that has taken over is not exactly breaking new ground. Perhaps only after neo-punk popularity dies, just as its infinitely more respectable predecessor did, this list will return to its former self. Yes, the Misfits are/were considered by some to be a punk band, but that doesnt make this the punk forum any more than it is a Danzig forum. In short, the fact that most that most of the more recent subscribers are punks of some kind doesn't defeat the relevance of the original purpose of the Bible: to discuss the Misfits and related bands(with insight,not ignorance and personal attacks.) ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Oct 1996 03:59:36 -0500 From: Poultry Subject: Why be something you're not!

I get there, sure im in a good mood....giddy i guess you could call it. I see him there, a take a few pictures...pretty damn happy. I hand him "Earth AD" gold cd, and Collection II and say: "Hi Glenn...by the way, do you remember Denmom Patricia Ragan??" (Glenn just stares) "yes, from the punk magazine" Totally godamn emotionless. Not a smile, not anything. (right now Im listening to my copy of V...the biggest piece of goddamn shit). Ok, fine. I hand him my jacket to sign, along with Collection II. He signs the jewel case of Collection II...What the fuck is that!!?? What am i gonna do with an autographed jewel case??!!?? God, i go for another question. "So Mr. Zig...whats your favorite Misfits song??" "I dont have one" "So you like him all, huh?" "Yeah, i guess" (very sarcastic smile) This hurts a bit...I look up to this guy, he could be a bit nicer. Come on, i buy all that shit. I *did* take a few pictures, and got a smile for one. I guess im just over reacting, and expected something different. Did anyone else have experiences with him at an autograph session...how did it go???

Yeah, like any of you care. : ( Anyway, to save my valuable (ha!) time, I'm going to use The Misfits Bible to my advantage so that I don't have to e-mail 30 people. To those of you who write me, please note my e-mail address is now: kward93399@aol.com OK, now before I get called a hippocrate for being on America Online after telling everyone else they were fascists, etc... they gave me 50 free hours, plus on December 1st, they have a new "Plan" (remember the last one, right? 1984) that is $19.95 for unlimited usage monthly. That's two bucks less than the local Internet Service Providers, plus I get another megabyte of storage, so I'm staying. Sorry about all that, but it'll save Bible space in the long run. That saved 2 weeks of flames. Next up, hope everyone had a great Samhain Saturday, and a ghoulish Halloween tomorrow. OK, now it's bashing time.

The person that went out a limb >for Danzig, time and time again, when no one would have anything to do >with Glenn Rick Rubin was there. Hey, CG, don't let your head get too big, but I totally agreed with this. The Green Day thing was funny too, even if you did use a line from the Megadeth version of the song. (John Lydon sez: "I know what I want and I know how to get it." Dave Mustaine sez: "Don't know what I want but I know how to get it.") Not a flame, just know what a stickler you are for typos. "I will not post again." - see, there's a flame. ; ) >From: Mark Turnow >Now i Go to some "NEWSCHOOL" punk and find alot of fucking bullshit. >Stupid Fucks are smokin weed and shootin heroin right in fuckin front of >me. This was never a part of any punk seen i remember. Three words: "Settle down, Beavis." Drugs have always played a part in our scene, but then again maybe your town has a large sXe scene. If you're sick of drugs at shows, have fun at Garth Brooks. No wait, Skoal is a drug too. Poultry, the Danzing thing was nice. Oh, guys I haven't seen AZ's Adrenaline O.D. footage yet, but I can assure you that you will want it. AZ, I want a copy. New Years' Eve and Paul's Not Home are two of the most classic hardcore songs of all time. They're kinda related to the 'Fits, they were on the R.O.I.R. New York Thrash compilation with The Undead, and they're from "Joisey" >From: strangeways@earthlink.net >glen's real name as glen anazoly or somehting like that, well I don't >claim to know, but I do have a video of the misfits from back when Robo >was still in the band and glen is introducing all the guys in the band and he introduces himself as "Glen Whitman" ... That was a joke. His real name is Glenn Anzalone. Just call him that, and if takes more than 15 seconds for him to beat the shit out of you, then I might go ahead and believe he's Glen Whitman, >From: Steve >This has nothing to do with the Misfits. Does anyone know what happened to >"He Who Cannot Be Named" from the Dwarves? On the Sugarfix >insert it has his picture with the dates 1972-1993. How did he die? Actually, it has a bit to do with The Misfits. The Dwarves' guitarist, He Who Can Not Be Named, got his name not because he was into ancient Celtic and Druidic religions, but because he was a Samhain fan. When they opened for Mudhoney, they used to play "Who Killed Marilyn?". OK, and not to make you feel like an idiot, but they faked his death in 1993 to make the band more popular. After finding out that he was indeed still alive, Sub Pop Records dropped the band. It was all over the tabloids a few years ago. Even the Weekly World News. See, while knowing almost nothing about early 20th century horror, I do know quite a lot of useless information about punk rock. >From: Neil McAllister >"Short guy. Wears black. Tells everyone how evil he is. Brags about his >dick a lot. Has he ever had a date?" Beautiful! That's definately one of my favourites of all time on here! Brilliant!

If you've heard of em >all, yer punk as fuck (old-school style). Anyway, my point is, a band >doesn't necessarily have to be on a major label to be good. Although >many of these bands are pretty unknown, some independant bands managed >to get pretty popular (without signing to a major label). Just look >at the Descendents or the Germs. Or what about your beloved Misfits? Heard 'em? Hell I owned 7"s or LPs by all but two of those bands. Look, I'm not new to punk, don't be so beligerant. I didn't mean it that way. What I meant were "The Classic punk bands that got most people into punk rock, thus defining the reasons why a lot of the people who read this newsletter are not totally against major labels." Think about it, Did those of us who are punks get into it because of bands like Slaughter and the Dogs, Eater, Cheetah Chrome Motherfuckers, or the X-Ray Spex? No, most of us got into it through the so-called legends of punk, who were all on major labels, The Ramones, Sex Pistols, The Clash, Richard Hell and the Voidoids, New York Dolls, Generation X. I could go on here forever. My point is, why are we still discussing major labels? The Misfits have already signed with Geffen, right? Is it doing any good for us to all sit here and discuss why they shouldn't sign with them? Kinda like discussing whether we should build bomb shelters after the button's already been pushed.

OK, maybe this question has been asked before. Maybe it hasn't. But what I wanna know is, WHY ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH DID GLENN DITCH JOHN CHRIST, CHUCK BISCUITS, AND EERIE VON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry, that was a bit emotional, I apologize. I'm sure, however, my fellow Danzig enthusiasts share the same sentiments. Danzig 5 is a pretty good album. I got the first copy to hit the shelves at the music store I always buy from. Sad to say, there wasn't a big rush to get a copy. I like almost every song on the album. 7th House, Blackacidevil, and See All You Were are going to take some time for me to get used to. Hell, it doesn't even sound like Glenn on Blackacidevil, it sounds like Al Jourgenson. But oh well, Danzig is as Danzig does. It's a cool album. So farewell kiddies. I'm off to listen to it again.

During the song, Gen fucked some chick with the nose of a Halloween mask (similar to Alex's in Clockwork Orange). That's one thing I never want to see the Misfits do. It just wouldn't be as cool.

Why wont Glenn sign the box set? someone asked this, and I don't really have an answer, but when I went to a signing on south street about a month ago he would sign it. My friend handed him the insert that came in the static age cd and he said "This is a bootleg" of course it wasn't or anything. He fought with her over whether it was a bootleg or not, and after his friends or whoever they were at the desk told him that it was from the box set he just said "Well, I wouldn't know I never got a copy", and signed it. leah ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 30 Oct 1996 17:20:03 -0600 From: Kirt Knutsen Subject: Bobby Steele Listen Up I heard a rumor that Bobby Steele will be playing on the new Misfits album. Any truth to this Bobby? Sure would put things right in my Misfit world. If you aren't you sure as shit should be. Mark or whoever, Where does the live version of Mommy... come from on WAU? And why is there so much London Dungeon after it ends. It seems like 5 or 6 seconds. Doesn't this seem unusual? Anyway I was just wondering what show it comes from. The sound is great. Way better than any recordings of the new Misfits. What is with the shitty sound? Bring up the vocals and the guitars. I think a second guitarist would make a fine addition. Bobby you still with me? The album will sell and the Misfits will be rich, wait and see. The song The Haunting is devistating! If this thing gets recorded right(without all that underproduced bullshit)they will sell a million copies.

When I read that post, I about fell out of my chair laughing. I havn't laughed so hard in a long time! You, my friend, are way too fed up in your little "punk-rock" immage!!! You are the exact reason why the joke about punk being a religion and having the commandments was made! There is no real definition for punk, it's what you want it to be. How bout we end this whole punk debate right there. 138 SIGHTING!!!!!! The episode of last sunday's Simpsons was 138, and Homer said the word "misfit" during the show!!!!!! WOW!!!!!! I guess that makes Matt Groening a real Misfits fan, huh? Okay, that was meant to be VERY sarcastic. Chill out with the 138 stuff. Besides, if you watched the Simpsons enough, you'd have picked up on all the STAR WARS references. Alright kiddies, who created STAR WARS? That's right, George Lucas. And what was his first film? If you said THX-1138, you were correct. READ THE WWW PAGE, you'll find out that that's where they (the Misfits) got the idea for "We Are 138." I think the "138" crap should stop there too. More crap on my mind... For all of you rippin' on Glenn, please stop! If it weren't for Glenn, we wouldn't have the Misfits, now would we? I give lot's of credit to Jerry and Manny too(as well as Bobby, Doyle, Googy, etc), but the Misfits were Glenn's idea. And he may be a real dick in person, but I couldn't judge, for I've never met the man, but he did start the Misfits, Samhain, and Danzig. SO PLEASE, GIVE THE GUY SOME CREDIT!!!!!! That's about all I have to say for now. Later Mike P.S. I thought all "REAL" punks did was sit around, bitch and complain about everything, and spend all their money on cigarettes and cheep booze. If so many of you are "REAL" punks and are so much against the system, why do you all subscribe to an on-line service? And for that matter, even have computers? Just wondering.

After danzig four it was obvious that it was time for a change, I guess that Glenn was just tired of writing songs that comprised of only " Whoooooaaaaaaa " and " Whoooaaa-Whoooaaa-Whoooaaa " And to the stupid brat that Thinks Glenns real last name is Whitman or whatever, I can tell you that I am positive That it is really: Glenn Anzalone. Get it through you thick skull!!! If anyone is selling copies of the crismon ghost original show please email me. Wes thomas I suggest that we have the bible party at my place, I live in Chicago near the Riviera if any of you know where that is.

Change is good. The problem is that he's doing something that a lot of other bands have done before, enough so that as far as I'm concerned all the things he's trying here have pretty much outlived their interest." - as for this quote glenn isn't selling out he is just continuing his trend, he changes his style on a regular basis, just look at the difference between the Misfits, Samhain, and Danzig they all are completely different bands but the same frontman. ------------------------------ From: KWard93399@aol.com Date: Thu, 31 Oct 1996 00:27:53 -0500 Subject: Guitar School, December 96 Sorry to make two long posts in the same issue, but I just bought the new issue of Guitar School, and there are two articles you may wanna read: Page 9, "Through Changes" It would seem that Glenn Danzig's world has crumbled around him. For starters, the lineup that's been the backbone of his band for so many years-guitarist John Christ, drummer Chuck Biscuits and bassist Eerie Von-is no longer affiliated with the stocky singer. Secondly, after four largely successful albums on American Recordings, Danzig has left the label and signed with Hollywood; his first release for which will be Blackacidevil, due on Halloween. Drastic changes for sure; but ones that Danzig views as purely positive. "I think the directions of the people just grew apart," says the former Misfit of his ex-bandmates. "I just wanted to go a little more experimental with the band and John particularly like Seventies guitar styles. I like it loud, I like it crazy and I like it rough. If someone doesn't pick up their guitar and smash it and break it apart and make it scream and do shit, I'm not into it." Christ's replacement is Prong ringleader Tommy Victor. Though the future of Prong remains uncertain (the band was recently dropped from Epic Records), Victor plans to continue touring with Danzig in support of Blackacidevil. Also joining the Danzig fold are drummer Joey Castillo, formerly of Sugartooth, and ex-Danzig roadie/punk veteran Lazie on bass. Alice in Chains' Jerry Cantrell contributes lead guitar on three Blackacidevil cuts, including the ballad, "Come to Silver," a track originally written for Johnny Cash. "Jerry's an awesome guitar player," says Danzig. Currently, Danzig is on tour with Ozzy Osbourne, a support slot he's particularly excited about. After all, the first show he ever saw was Black Sabbath. "There are very few people that would ever take Danzig out on the road," he says. "They're all too scared." - Scott Warmuth OK, it's me, Ken, again. Now maybe it's just me, but with him saying "Fuck Rick Rubin." and slagging John Christ in this article, maybe I'm right about Glenn. After all, he just gave the same reason for wanting a new guitarist that he gave when Bobby Steele was booted in '81. Actually Glenn's EXACT words then were, "He tries to play like Hendrix. I fuckin' hate Jimi Hendrix!" So, now John Christ can join the "I got fucked-over by Glenn Danzig" crowd. Next up, we have an article on the 30 All-Time Greatest Punk Rock Records. Still can't believe a corporate mag such as this would even mention CRASS, much less make "Christ-The Album" one of their top picks. Page 37, "Too Tough To Die" MISFITS-Misfits Walk Among Us (Plan 9, 1980) Fronted by Glenn Danzig, the Misfits always looked like a zombie football team-ready to crack someone's skull and eat their brains at the sound of a whistle. Misfits Walk Among Us, their first album, was a compilation of many of their early seven-inches, and the music and vocals influenced such major acts as Metallica, Slayer and every other metal/punk band out there.Lyrically, they were into old movies and scary monsters. They have now returned to the punk arena (sans Danzig), proving you just can't kill a zombie. - GT See, even Guitar School says they're a punk band. : ) Anok! ------------------------------ From: punkin Subject: protocol Date: Thu, 31 Oct 1996 06:36:16 +0000 Warning: not explicitly Misfits-related material! Let's talk about moshing. We all know what types of shows provoke kids to flail into each other. Generally speaking, we know where the "pit" is going to be located, usually close to the stage. For people who don't like being pounded by teenage flesh and bones, this area is usually not the best place to watch a show. At the Butthole Surfers show tonight, a man, roughly 26, was standing in the area where the kids, roughly 16, were trying to mosh. Each time a kid bumped into him, he punched them, grabbed them, and tried to pick a fight. I believe he may have spit in one kid's face. He was eventually escorted out, kicking and screaming. I've seen several post on here bitching about the pits and how you can't enjoy the show 'cause of all the kids running into each other. Point is, the music sounds just as good in the back of the crowd, away from all the brouhaha in the front. If you don't like pits, like myself, please don't provoke anger out of the kids that are already willingly beating the hell out of themselves--just move. Oh, and if you're in the pit and see someone go down, please don't trample them. It hurts. thanks punkin ------------------------------ From: Ronald Barned Subject: 5 blackacidevil Date: Thu, 31 Oct 1996 03:17:15 -0600 ok i've had blackacidevil 2 days now so i guess it's review time. yep, some people will hate it as i've seen a couple negative reviews already but after listening to it over & over i can say i really like it now although it did take a few listens to get used to it. i must say this is one gutsy move on glenn's part to make such a drastic change but i guess he doesn't give a crap. oh ya....is this the booklet cover that's been such a secret that he couldn't give any clues as to what it looked like, what a joke....not too much thought put into this one but i really could give a rat's ass bout the packaging. anywayz a run through the songs: 7th house: can't get enuf of the opening beat & the deep voice talking part. "girl i'm gonna make you come"? gettin a little racey for a disney record aren't we, depending on how you take that. blackacidevil: the most different sounding & untraditional danzig song i think i've heard. sounds more like trent reznor on vocals but i really like this one. See all you were: this would be a great song if only the vocals weren't so damn buried & if that squeaky noise weren't so loud (reminds me of fingernails across a blackboard) but it's still a good song & probably one of my favs on here anyway. . Sacrifice: what can i say, as someone else said i can't get enough of this song, this has become one of my all time fav danzig songs but i'll probably get burnt out on it soon enough though. Hint of her blood: nice spacey noises on this one & whatcha' know....no distorted vocals. Serpentia: lovely moans i gotta say although it is a bit overdone but it's still one of my favorites. Come to silver: another one of my favorites on here (how many favs on one record am i allowed?), i don't really even mind the distorted vocals on this one too much. nice guitar work.....sounds so un-john christ. Power of darkness: i like the music....the vocal melody if you can even call it a melody reminds me of "bringer of death"...... probably the least accessible song on the album but i've grown to like this track alot anyway. Ashes: great. my 2nd favorite song on the album. yep, glenn can sing & if you don't agree let's see you do any better jack. that's bout it.......laterz. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 31 Oct 1996 10:55:32 +0100 (NFT) From: Richard Lundberg Subject: Traders-page I'm making a punk traders page.

Send me some feedback or whatever you think it is, cause if I'm way off base here, I think I'd better go see a doctor or something. Also, everyone has been so busy bitching about how Glenn's music has changed, did anyone else notice that he still writes "with" as "w/" in the lyrics?

Hey folks, it's the most wonderful time of the year! Just thought I'd say Happy Halloween to one and all! Just a question to anyone who can answer it please. I was watching "Rosemary's Baby" last night on TV (incredible flick!), and it got me thinking, what is the proper name of the band that Eerie was in? Was it Rosemary's Baby or Rosemary's Babies? I've heard both. If you know for sure, please tell me. >"Short guy. Wears black. Tells everyone how evil he >is. Brags about his dick a lot. Has he ever had a date?"

Mark, why on God's green holy EARTH did you put CG's post as a higher priority than Bobby's, a former Misfit, or any of ours for that matter? As far as I could see, all he did was flame virtually every poster on here (he missed me, but after this I'm sure he'll correct that), as well as the Misfits, AND Glenn (does this guy like anything?). It was long and completely uninformative. A direct piss in the face to the very rules he helped install. Are the creators of laws above them?

Yusko" Subject: Misfits in Baltimore This is actully my first time on the bible, but I felt the show last night(Oct.30, mischif night) was well worth mentioning. They began at around 11:30 and went on untill about 1:30a.m. They played great as usual. The only problem was, was that the club they played at lied about their capacity in order to get the Misfits to play. They told them they could hold about 250 people when in all actuality they could most likely hold alitle over a hundred. This goes without saying that it was a liiitttllle crouded. Still was a great show. Only got to see Jerry afterwards cause everybody else ran off. I'm sure they had something to do. Anyways, it rocked. P.S. Whoever keeps giving these great Danzig 5 reviews needs to relisten to the album. It's not bad for industrial, but it's not Danzig. Loose the distortions on the voice and you're on step one to getting back to the real Danzig. Later! ------------------------------ From: Misfit4798@aol.com Date: Thu, 31 Oct 1996 15:34:34 -0500 Subject: memory lane What's up fiends, I haven't posted for a week or so, but last night I went to the Misfits show at Memory Lane in Baltimore. It rocked aside from the fact that the stage was so damn small, and the fact that H2O opened up for the Misfits. I don't know much about H2O, but they had a huge skinhead crowd there, and that really sucked considering H2O had too stop in the middle of songs twice to break up unite/skinhead fights, and ultimately ended their set early (I sure wasn't upset about that). If anyone was at the 9:30 show in may, the misfits showed movie trailers before they went on stage, they did the same thing this time, only it was on a huge 7ft. tv screen, to the tune of halloween II. The misfits played all the usual stuff, including Bloodfeast, they played the Hunger, Blacklight, and a brand new song called "American Psycho", which was awesome. Despite our numerous screams from up front of the stage they didn't play the Haunting, or Mars Attacks. Jerry told us after the show that they didn't play them because of something about Michale's air intake during the Haunting, whatever that means. They also played "The Monster Mash" by Boris Pickett, which I thought made the show perfect. After the show I managed to go to my car and get my camera and got a few shots of my friends and I with Jerry. As we were finally leaving, I saw Michale as I peered in the window of their "Winnebago" bus, so I figured I'd get my coat and go back to the winnebago to try to talk to or get some pictures with the rest of the band, when were were approached by some guys with baseball bats asking us if we were unite's or not. We said no and left rather quickly without talking to Mike. Supposedly they were trying to settle a fight that had started in the pits of H2O. I also got the 1st issue of "SQUIRT", by Doug Evil, to any Misfits Fiend who doesn't have this issue BUY IT!!! It's really cool and has alot of info on the cartoon, the comics, and alot of other stuff. I can't wait to hear a new album by these guys, their new stuff sounds so good live, well all things in good time.

They started off by showing clips from a bunch of horror and sci-fi films. It was just awesome. There were too many white power assholes there, just like the last time the Misfits played at the troc, but it was still a great show. There's always so much energy when the Misfits play that its always a good time. The only thing that disappointed me was that the vocals were really hard to hear over everything else. I was really happy to see so many other sXe brothers there. It made up for all the racist asswipes. The new material sounded really good also. sXe Crew 1313 "1 billion animals are killed each year for experiments" "20,000 dolphins and 2 million sharks are killed each year in the North Pacific driftnets alone" "Livestock production is the #1 cause of land and water pollution in the U.S." -Live cruelty free.

In actuality, he ended up putting on a free concert right in the record store parking lot! The crowd was really small, too, and even the people in the back weren't very far from the stage. He played a few of the cuts from Blackacidevil, and what (at least) one MB subscriber suggested was true: the stuff does sound a lot better live than on the CD. "Sacrifice" was particularly good live... So I didn't get my Satanika's signed, but a free surprise concert is better than a signing any day.

Hello to all the fiends and Horror Kids... this is it, last set of questions, but before we get to that i need to take care of a couple things. First off top three at this point are, Franz with 117 points, Uncle Kirt with 108 points, and Jess with 80 points. Not bad guys, i know some of the questions can blow your mind but what is the point if they were easy. Next some questions i see about where i get my stuff, ie references. Well i have an exensive collection of books on Horror movies, i started buying or really my mother started buying me Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine since 1977, i collected several of the older issues and still buy the magazine to this day, I have several other horror magazines from the 1950's, 1960's etc, i have hundreds of filled video tapes with the movies we have been talking about, plus as i have said before i have 24 years of watching these films over and over again to know them in and out. They make doing non computer artwork seem much more easy to deal with. So i can honestly say i do know what the hell i'm talking about. As for the Zanti or Zantis(plural) Misfits, well just on the off chance that several of my books and magazines were wrong i checked around the net. It seems that MGM is rereleasing the original Outer Limits series on tape again, and on their webpage they have it spelled Zanti Misfits. I really doubt that they would make that big of a mistake on they webpage since they are trying to sell the tapes. As for any other problems with what i'm doing or saying, in the simplest of terms i really don't give a shit if you have some stupid problem with me. Basically its become a waste of time for everyone to have to read through bullshit that just does not apply to them. Though i guess everyone one need to find a way to get a big ego boost even if it mean trashing someone for no apparent reason. Now on to the questions: 1) What is the name of Dr. Phibes wife in the two movies? 2) Name the Korean equal in monsters to Godzilla? 3) What Movie had the first female Vampire and what year did it come out? 4) In history what was a Talos, in movies what movie did this first appear in?(2 extra points if you can name what Talos was made of and who and where was it given as a gift to) 5) Name the one Misfits song that starts its lyrics off with a Brain Invasion, then name four of the Brain Invading type movies, you have a lot to choose from to boot? (2 extra points for the name of the brain invading movie that refers to all of us(you know what we are or at least what we are called as Misfits fans - Hint Hint) Its been a killer game thus far and you know the deal, answers in by Sunday 10pm (tes777@bridge.net ). Winners and prizes will be announced monday. Good luck to all. Oh some cool Halloween news you know about the petition for the Universal Monster Stamps that the Misfits put into our Fiend Club packs, it seemed to pay off. Next Halloween the post office will release i think 5 or 6 different stamps. The design work is already done and they look really good. that is it for now, have a great weekend to all.

NINOSKY" Date: Fri, 1 Nov 1996 10:36:17 PST Subject: gettin' it on wif mom Smarsh was partly right. The absence of Christ, Von, and Biscuits has depleted Glenn's music of the musicianship needed to turn his good ideas into great songs. Glenn supplied the power lyrics and voice which are inimitable, but the music was the rest of those guys. Joey Castillo and Josh Lazie Smurf are merely lackeys. They are not Danzig. This is such a fucking sad situation we got here. blackacidevil sucked. We all know it, and we all try to make excuses or keep playing the damn thing as background music in an effort to force it into our heads like a bubble gum top 40 song. The first three albums were excellent themic works. 4p had some great songs, but it was more like "Danzig sings some Danzig songs" rather than an album sort of experience. When I say "album sort of experience", I am refering to works such as Final Descent, Hendrix's Axis: Bold as Love, November Coming Fire. These albums assembled the songs to provide an overall shift in feelings and mood as the album progressed rather than putting a bunch of "hit singles" together with some filler songs. I am just really disappointed that Glenn has moved away from something he was, in my opinion, the greatest at. He could have made a power industrial album, and I would have dug it. Instead, he made a piece of shit that sounds like what others have already done anyway. He could have done better. I just feel like he didn't try at all. Oh yeah, and Joey Castillo would like to thank all his homies. ------------------------------ From: Shane Othor Hall Subject: Misfits On Halloween!!

The Misfits once more showed they dedication to the fans by asking us waht we wanted to hear. Amazing, it all started with some clips of horror movies, and just got better from there. I was shocked at the number of "kids" there, but I guess you gotta start somewhere, more power to them. The police presence was pretty light, that was also amazing.

I was to meet Glenn on Friday at an instore. The warning clearly stated--NO MISFITS NO SAMHAIN ITEMS WILL BE SIGNED. I thought this was odd. So, I brought all 3 Samhain vinyls and my Collection I vinyl signed by everyone else. Only Glenn and Tommy were there. I had 14 things with me for signing. Finally I get to the table, I plop my stuff down with my left hand. The security guard outside told me Glenn was not to see the Samhain/Misfits stuff and that I shouldn't let it touch the table. So, I'm standing there, and I decided to ask Glenn is he'd sign Samhain stuff. He gave me a look like I was nuts and replied that he would. So, I place the 3 Sam stuff down with the Collection underneath it, I pull out the Collection trying to make sure Glenn didn't see it, Glenn did see it and get this----he went out of his way to say "hey man, I'll sign that!" Too cool. He signed all 14 things, but when he got to the Collection he looked at the other autographs, made a strange noise--kind of like BAH--flipped it over and signed the back. While all of this was going on, Tommy is sitting there looking through my stuff like it was the coolest stuff on earth. He acted as if he'd never seen Thrall before and seemed impressed with my Unholy Passion. The security guard and him were joking that I was "getting the stuff signed that I was taking to the grave". Tommy was all smiles, handed me a few stickers, and nodded. I get the impression he thought I was nuts because I must've told Glenn I appreciated him signing the Misfits thing a million times. One thing I noticed about Tommy was that no one was talking to him and seemed more than willing to chat with anyone who came by. I can't say I talked to him, but I don't like Prong, so I had nothing to say, really. Over all, it was a great experience. Glenn said Prophecy 2 is done, and he filmed the scenes in between tour dates, and that I should write to the address on the back of the sticker (the same in the album) for fan club info. Something strange though. Glenn seemed to have a difficult time hearing people. I noticed he did this with a bunch of others, as well as with me---someone would say something, and he'd say "What?" and lean his left ear forward and up. I have a frail and weak voice, so I went out of my way to PROJECT, and he still seemed to have a hard time hearing me. He wasn't a dick about it, or anything....very cool. I was very impressed with his politeness to the fans--although he didn't smile once (that was Tommy's job, I guess)--but still it was great. Anyone who thinks Glenn is a dick that does nothing for his fans needs to think twice.

The Troc show on Halloween was incredible. They came out with Star Trek outfits on and opened with...you guessed it Halloween.(as if everyone didn't already know.) They played all the old favorites. Out of the new stuff they played The Hunger, Blacklight, The Haunting and a new one called American Psycho. It sounded pretty good and made me that much more anxious to hear the new album. Also after seeing the Misfits 4 times I finally got to see the movie clips with Halloween 2 in the background at the beginning of the show. Anyway just a great crowd, with stage diving from the opening song all the way to the end, and a tight show. I would say the best sounding I have heard so far. I hope you were all there. ...Marino ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 03 Nov 1996 00:41:42 -0500 (EST) From: Stephen Gorny Subject: Baltimore: October 30 Well - the Misfits came to Memory Lane (more of a bar than a club) in Baltimore the other night. It was a great show, better than their Hammerjacks show a few months back. Right before the band came on, they showed clips of Bride of Frankenstein while an extended mix of Halloween II played over the PA. Then the band hit the stage - Michale had his face painted up in a black and white skull design (which lasted all of 20 minutes before he wiped it off). Alot of the old Misfits classics and a new tune (which, according to Jerry, was the first time they ever played it live) called American Psycho. They also played that kooky old song "Monster Mash" at one point when they stopped to fix a kick pedal on the drum kit. Definately the best of the Resurrection shows I've been to. However - the night was kind of spoiled by the people who run Memory Lane. First off - this is a tiny place with a capacity of 120 people (that's what the sign on the wall says). There were at least twice that many people there. I mean - it was cool to be that up close and personal, the stage is tiny and only about 3 feet high so lots of people were just climbing up and diving back out, but it was just way too many people there for a club that size. Second - no security whatsoever. Yeah - sometimes they can be goons, but most of the guys who work security in the Baltimore clubs are pretty cool. And you don't usually need em here cuz they generally get 100 people or less when most bands come in - but a few could have been cool simply cuz of all the fights breaking out during the opening acts (especially H20) - luckily, enough people there had a head on their shoulders to try and calm the people down Finally (my biggest beef) - I don't know how it is where a lot of you guys live, but around here, most clubs that get shows where they know there will be a pit don't let people in with big spikes on their jackets or armbands, Memory Lane didn't give a shit and let anyone in with anything. Now, maybe its just me getting old, but that just was really ignorant. I like being in the pits at shows, and I'll be the first one to say, if you don't want to get roughed up a bit or get slammed around - DON'T STAND DOWN FRONT. But by the third song I had gotten walloped in the head by some asshole with an arms length bracer full of spikes (my head stopped bleeeding after about 15 minutes). And when I backed up you could see spiked armbands all over the place. I also several other people who looked like they got puncture wounds at some point. I just thought the club should have made those people take that shit off - especially with that kind of a crowd there (double capacity). ANyways - enough rambling - it was a killer show aside from the head wounds. ============================================================================ Stephen Gorny : Does your school or place of employment mandate Department of Psychology : the use of 'Politically Correct' speech and UMBC : threaten to punish those who do not comply? 5401 Wilkens Avenue : If so, then they are violating your First Baltimore, MD 21228-5398 : Amendment rights to freedom of speech.

Still a great song tho, hope a good portion of the new album have the classic WAU feel. >If this thing gets recorded right(without all that >underproduced bullshit)they will sell a million copies. Later Uncle Ummmm, sure us fiends will buy a copy, long time Misfits fans, people just getting into them theyll all buy copies. But theyll never break into the main mainstream. ---- About Moshing: You cant slag people for having a good time...its just a few kids jumping around. The entire floor of a show doesnt do it, just up front. If you dont like it, stand near the back. Now...NYHC is a different story. Last night i attended Type O Negative/Life of Agony/Manhole (who suck dick). Totally forgeting all the harcore assholes would be there, i hung up front. A few seconds after LOA came on, i found myself in a circle of assholes trying to avoid more than a few flailing arms. No, i wasnt struck...but pretty damn close. Well, after Life they all left. Typo rocked. Im going to sleep now. dave ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 03 Nov 1996 14:05:17 -0400 (EDT) From: "D.ETH" Subject: Oxford American Dictionary's definition of punk PUNK (pungk) n.

It is a claw (from so kind of bird.Maybe a crow or raven or something) on a leather rope and it has a tag that says DANZIG and it has the Danzig skull and then it says HALLOWEEN 1995. I have no clue how many were given out or what. If you know anything about it let me know. justin ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 03 Nov 1996 18:00:24 EST From: "Whittle, Patrick R." Subject: poughkeepsie show here's my review of all the bands. ninetynine cents- openning bands don't usually get people moving like these guys did. i picked up the 7", too. they are a local band here; kind FATish punk rock with a touch of ska i guess. wish they'd gotten more than 30 mins. brown tongue- i was afraid i'd have to see this band again. they blow ass. the only good punk band in the history of the world with a harm- onica player was the dead milkmen. but these guys weren't really punk tho, so that's okay. they mooned the audience and nearly got booed off the stage. sardonica- better than last time around. more catchy for some reason, but still hard edged. i don't know what kinda music this is, but they're not half bad. CHUD doesn't appear to be their drummer anymore. H20- NYHC up the ASS!! see these guys on their own sometime. people moshed harder to them than to the 'fits. you gotta have balls to wear a Tu-Pac shirt on stage and be the only sXe guy in the band (that would be there singer). my friends look out for me like family... MISFITS- i just realized i think i messed up that H20 line. oh well. the boys sounded really metally this time, but they were fired up and i think everyone was impressed. some of the songs (but not most) actually sound better with the harder sound. i met jerry after the show and he really is a nice guy. doyle and mike were pissed tho (isn't doyle always pissed). mike told us the moshing was really sad for a punk show. but the horror movie trailers at the beginning were cool. did they have to re-record halloween II for that? anyways...i'm still glad the 'fits are back together, and i look forward to the new CD even tho it's on (bleah!) geffen. maybe mike graves will be the next kurt cobain. i can see him and courtney love together.... patrick the poughkeepsie fiend "this isn't really death this isn't really life, this isn't really anything i think i like" ps- they didn't play braineaters again!! are they saying Oi! or just yelling inarticulately? pps- hey mike and george! (you be good too) pps- i signed up for the fiend club mailing list. should i expect to get anything from them, ever? i'm not holding my breath. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 3 Nov 96 16:18:16 MST From: "Cadet Kyle J. Pumroy, x4534" Subject: thought on blackacidevil Hi, I heard Sacrifice on the radio last night on BPI from Denver. I immediately told my friends in the car that this was the new Danzig. None of them knew any songs other than Mother. My friend in the back goes "This is Danzig? No way". At the end of the song the DJ goes "No that wasn't the new Nine Inch Nails, that was actually new Danzig." I think that really sums it up. I think if the exact album was put out by White zombie or NIN, people who like that music (like myself) would think it was a great album. I think though that most of us expect something different, maybe at a higher level than what Glenn produced. Especially when the beauty of Glenn's music has always centered around his voice, and he goes and burries it. I do like Blackacidevel, but regardless of what type of music it is, Glenn shouldn't ignore and hide his talent like he does. At least he doesn't distort his voice on all songs. one other thing, did Earth AD CD come out last week? The music stores here didn't have it that I went to, which is strange if it did come out. Just wondering if anyone saw it. thanks kyle ps my friends didn't especially like Sacrifice, so I wonder now if it will get that much airplay or not. we'll wait and see. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 3 Nov 1996 18:59:15 PST Subject: I'm back..miss me? From: Scott R Tiemeyer Hello all my Fiend brothers, I'm back...I had e-mail problems, and I was away for a while. Anyway, got some news to share. Glen was here on Saturday signing stuff, so I went and bought the new album (to seem nice) and I brought my Collection I, II, and Walk Among Us. He refused to sing any of my misfits stuff, he signed the goddamn cd book to blackacidevil...oh boy! Anyway it was still danzig, but I DID get a picture with him. The new album is cool (if you like indrustial). it's not Danzig though. I wonder what brought on the change. Well if someone could be kind enough to inform me of what I missed...anything big, besides the Geffen thing... Strength Always Scott ------------------------------ From: WASMUNT3857@uni.edu Date: Sun, 03 Nov 1996 19:31:51 -0600 (CST) Subject: John,Eerie,Chuck About John and Eerie I read in a guitar magazine awhile ago that they weren't fired they both quit the same day. I'm not sure but I think Chuck was fired, I read that a long time ago. Also the reason Glenn might not want to discuss the Misfits is maybe he doesn't want to live in the past, I don't know just a thought. Also I have to agree that Danzig is relavent the the MB he made the Misfits what they are, if I hadn't have gotten into Danzig first I probably wouldn't have checked the Misfits. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 03 Nov 1996 20:45:01 -0500 From: jaid Subject: AOL and IRC Anyone know how to get on the undernet from AOL? ------------------------------ From: mf252888@oak.cats.ohiou.edu Date: Mon, 4 Nov 1996 00:03:10 -0500 (EST) Subject: halloween and other ab-normal stuff As I was speeding down the PA turnpike, setting my radio to scan and realizing that I know too many one hit wonders from the 70s and 80s, I was contemplating the meaning of the Great Pumpkin and other such mysteries of life. Yes I made the trip to Philly to see the fits on Halloween, and yes I saw them. But perhaps that is a misleading statement. I missed the show, but I actually "saw" the fits... I arrived at 11:30 and the gig was over. I met my usual partners in crime, Jaid and Bricks 9the nicest person I know), and two new arrivals Chris and Dave (hey wow real names...) and we hung out while everyone was loading up. They told me what a great show I missed and Jerry later told me about it and showed me his snazzy star trek uniform. BTW it was red. I hope they meant to be the Next Generation series cause i might be wrong, but wasn't it the rule that the guys in red in the original episodes were always the first to get zapped? I guess there was a guy with a T-shirt of Rocky on it...I guess it was a rough crowd...I guess Jimmy (Sticky) the Tank is alive in someone's memory...and I'm also aware of what a lemming is once and for all. I am one. I was peer pressured into going to the Poughkipsee (forgive my spelling??) NY show the next day. OK OK so I was broken for the sake of the unit allright? But I just couldn't not go...... Other interesting sights in Chinatown Philly: the bullet hole in our suite window...damn if i could find where the bullet went... On to NY....we got there and the Chance is in a *war zone*, but the place itself was really cool. The balcony was open too. We got there and found out that there were 4 opening bands: Sardonica (great set), H2O (lotsa basketball jerseys, but pretty OK), and Brown Tongue (two singers: one black suit, played harmonica and too cool to move...the other very rollins-esque), and someone else. Jaid, Bricks and I decided that for one show we were gonna stay up in the balcony and watch the whole picture..ummm Jaid I lasted 3 songs. I'm weak. Weak I tell ya! The crowd was tame, we got to the front easier than I expected. they played a lot of new material, and it sounded great! American Psycho included there. At one point we are screaming NIKE NIKE and Michale (donning the skull make-up) looks directly at us and turns to Jerry and says NIKE..to which Jerry said: American Nightmare 1234! They did play it right before the end of the set though :) Oh and Glenn has been replaced as "God's Littlest Misfit" (don't get pissy the god reference is sarcasm) by this kid who had the skeleton gloves, the devilock, and the total image down, who got up on stage and sung Attitude. He was great! We all cheered for him, he was probably around 10?? Also met some cool people, they know who they are, and freaked Jerry out with a skull pez dispenser. Special thanks to Rocky from the one he calls "normal girl".... And we are still wondering what that thing on Chud's jacket was in a former life... More peer pressure was applied to go to the following night's show in NJ, but a 20 page paper kept me from going. Although it was a gracious offer by certain people to divide and write a few pages to help out :) (Ummm it's still not done...) I am forgetting much, but it was a great evening as usual and I always have fun at the shows. I am excited to hear when the new stuff will be coming out cause it sounds great live! later!! nike "Get off my lawn!" or "I am an individual dammit!" ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 4 Nov 1996 11:16:58 +0100 (NFT) From: Richard Lundberg Subject: Traders-page Hi again.

I was psyched, no pat down at the door means DAT deck got inside and I did record the gig. Unfortunatly, the MIC I am using is not that great (i am looking for better stealth mics) so the recording is typical of a misfits boot. I am offering it to Chris (christoter@aol.com) only as it seems that he does a good job distributing all that stuff so please do not email me for trades. If Chris doesnt want it, then I will trade with others. The misfits kicked ass and it was louder than fuck (prob why the recording was bad). They went through the usual slew of tunes and they did Angelfuck which was cool. New tunes were Blacklight, The Hunger, The Haunting, American Psycho, Walk Among Us, and I think maybe one other one I am forgetting. The Haunting is an excellent tune, the others, well, I'll see what they will sound like in the studio cause I havent been all that impressed but then again, @ those volumes, its tough to judge a new song. The white power contingent was there, of course, and most of it was ejected for fighting during the Sardonica set. At least the bouncers at this place had balls not like the allentown gig where all they did was break up fights and let everyone stay. Overall, a good solid show. They played the horror video clip intro which was cool, but got boring after hearing the same verses of Halloween II played in the background for 10 minutes. Complaints I have heard in the past of Doyles guitar playing are no longer relevant. He did stink back in the early 80s, but he was young and inexperienced. He now kicks ass, he hit all the solos to the tunes right on, and overall, kicked ass on all the songs. AZ ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 4 Nov 1996 09:47:39 -0500 From: Tarry Carapezza Subject: Roadtrip! Funny how a nice little trip to Philly can turn into a 3 day East Coast tour. We arrived at the Troc on Halloween nite just in time to catch the horror film collection that the 'Fits have been playing every now and then on their tours. For some reason, I chose this viewing to recognize that the soundtrak for the collection is an ultra-extended version of Halloween II. If you haven't seen this video collection, you wouldn't believe how long they play Halloween II. Anyway, the guys came out in Star Trek uniforms (Happy Halloween!) and played an amazing set, including one brand new song 'American Psyco'. It rocked! The part of the show that was coolest to me was when the band asked the audience what songs they should play next, they played 2 that I asked for. Micheal looked at me, I said 'Some Kinda Hate', he looked at the rest of the band, and they played it. Jerry looked at me, I said 'Nite of the Living Dead', he asked the rest of the band, and they played it. YES! One stranger aspect was that they did NOT close the show with 'Die, Die' like they usually do. Come to think of it, I don't remember what they closed with, anyone? The sound for the show was amazing. The vocals were crystal clear. This was especially evident on the newer songs. The Haunting was the best version I have ever heard. And my ears were not ringing in the slightest afterwards, even without my earplugs in. The saddest part of the show was that our friend Michelle missed the entire set. :( But after hanging out with the guys for a while, Rocky invited us to see the show the next nite in NY. So after getting a few hours sleep, we packed our stuff and headed up to New York. For that show, I did what I always said I wanted to do at a Misfits show. I just hung out in the balcony. I've seen the Misfits 8 times now. That was the first show I actually got to see Chud play. The sound for this show wasn't nearly as good as the nite before. The vocals were barely audible at times. They played 'American Psyco' again, and what I'm guessing was another new song, because I couldn't recognize it at all. That nite we stayed at the Econo Lodge. Our room #? Yup, you guessed it, 138. We were laughing our asses off. Oh yeah, the hotel was just down the street from the Hoe Bowl. I kid you not. -Bricks ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 4 Nov 1996 00:48:36 -0500 From: tes777@bridge.net (Tammy S.) Subject: Answers and Winners...

Obviously they were not the same person, and obviously Eerie wasn't the Misfits drummer... however, a lot of people make the mistake of assuming Eerie was in the band because he was a close friend and their photographer. In fact, Eerie began playing drums after Doyle suggested it, and Eerie did audition to be drummer of the Misfits in May of 1982. He was accepted but turned down the offer a few days later to stay with his band at the time - Rosemary's Babies.

I happen to like it, but I still understand why some people don't. As far as blackacidevil goes, I don't like it. Is it becasue it's industrial? NO! It's because it puts me to sleep!

Buy you a beer?" and I could hear his girlfriend yelling at him in the background, "Switch ears, Glenny, Switch ears!" but Glenn just kept yelling at me until he finally said "Stop harrassing me Bobby!
