From: dan sylvester Subject: Re: ADAM WEST "I just wanted to let Jake know that there is another band called ADAM WEST. They're from Halifax or something like that and they're pure silly little girl pop(like Sloan and Eric' Trip). They've been around for like three years. I don't know if they changed their name by now. You may want to check that out just to be safe." thanks for the tip, dan! but actually, i've known about them for a couple years already. we've all come to an agreement without having to get legal about it. anyway, they're, as dan so appropriately put it, "pure, silly, little girl pop." they do a kate bush cover which made me retch when i heard it, so whatever! when we come up to canada soon, we'll have to add a suffix to our name, hence ADAM WEST USA. when you compare our two bands, there's NO similarity, trust me! -- * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Jake Starr/ADAM WEST * Fandango Records * 1805 T Street, NW #A * Washington, DC 20009-7128 * (202) 483-0065 * eMAIL: jyas@loc.gov * http://www.access.digex.net/~yield/adamwest.html * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 Jan 1997 14:57:04 -0500 From: "George W.

It's been moved to FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 14. Valentine's Day! Now, I can see Danzig instead of sitting around and wallowing in my self misery about not having a woman. Stephen, out of curiosity, what color t-shirt and jeans were Glenn wearing? I remember hearing the comment "this man has no colors in his closet", so if it wasn't black, the band has lied! sniff sniff. Hotcock's throwing the flames, I see. Actually, I NEVER take the attitude of stomping someone for no reasons. I am actually one of the nice people who hangs around for a while keeping my eyes on those who seem unable of taking care of themselves.....normally first timers, who think the nickname of the Brawlroom is a joke. I think it's strange that the only way you can insult me is by not just warping, but making up a quote from me. ADAMN--it's a boot poster, but I'd say it's a good deal. The cheapest I've seen one for around here is $20. Cresswell, I believe the guy who does Rollins' tattoos is Rick Spellman. At least the back one. As far as Glenn, I have no idea. Romual---RELAX! Are you trying to tell me you've never heard of a band cancelling? I think Glenn was sick or something, and if not, that's a pretty silly reason for turning on a band. Dean---I'd suggest calling Rolling Stone about the instore. I really doubt he'll be there, seeing as he was just there in November.

Someone was saying real satanist s are nto this not that..Unfortunately its a label that has to be defined. The LaVeyan satanic philosphy (church of satan) beleives as I stated above.. LAVEYAN SATANISM.. There are a lot of different groups out there.. sub divisions of the label satanism but all very different..problem is ppl label it all satanism when none of it is at all the same.. Also..the thing about everything changing when you join..no.. What happens is smaller organizations will want you and then theyll form their own beliefs or whatever bullshit they want... NO GOD NO DEVIL in LaVeyan satanism.. to make it official now... the beleif is youa re your own God and give respect where it is due... its of the flesh..of the earth.. real.. nothing imagined. .Matt. ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 Jan 1997 22:24:47 -0400 (AST) From: Des Roches Subject: quick questions about the misfits 1.what is vinyl? 2.what is it with 138? 3.why did glenn leave the misfits? thanx mail the answers to: brendad@atcon.com thanx,matt (ill soon be a fiend!) ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 Jan 1997 20:24:00 -0800 From: Inzo Subject: ah yes...Orgy Of The Dead I have this movie. I only watched it once. Basically A man and woman are driving somewhere, their car breaks down, they get captured by a mummy and a wolfman they are brought to Criswell and a fakey Vampira and are forced to watch, One at a time, about 30 topless dancers, they escape and destroy Criswell. The End. I remember only liking the second or third dancer (the redhead?) This was around the time Ed Wood got into making Porography. In the Movie "Look Back In Angora" a Ed Wood biographgy, it tells his story and shows some scenes from one of his porno films he was in. My favorite Ed Wood film is Bride of the Monster and Night Of the Ghouls. (Night of the ghouls is a sequel!) The Crimson Ghost serials are easy to find. I have the colorized version It's On Republic Home Video, catalog number VHS 0778 Bloodfeast is a great movie, a girl really get's her tongue pulled out an another gets her eye plucked out bye ------------------------------ From: Christopher Wilson Subject: AWESOME DANZIG SHIRT I MADE!

A while back I mentioned how issue #138 of The Amazing Spider-Man featured the first appearance of the Mindworm. Well, the Mindworm saga continued in The Spectacular Spider-Man #35 in which Spidey refers to the Mindworm's lair as "this Horror Hotel". It aint no SBTB, but it'll have to do. Does anyone know what's playing in the background at the end of TV Casualty? And no, i don't mean the I Love Lucy theme. The news broadcast or whatever just before Lucy. ...Kent Speak... ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 31 Jan 1997 22:24:51 -0800 (PST) From: Daniel Herrmann Subject: Tribute album I heard the MiSFiTs tribute album, titled "Violent World", is coming out February 11.

His big scene is a fight with Russel Wong which he said is more "just fighting" and not a lot of martial arts stuff. I keep seeing people say that bootlegs are worth $0.00. Bullshit. Like anything else, an item is worth whatever people are willing to pay for it. I would say my old Froot Loops boxes my mom bought when I was a kid are worth nothing, but there are a lot of people out there who'll pay big bucks for them. I think the Fits boots of legit releases were probably worth more before the Collections were released as they contained songs that you just couldn't get anywhere else. But people are still willing to pay for this stuff...ergo - they have value. Jake - if there really is a European band called Adam West, maybe you'll have to go the Wrathchild route and change your name to ADAM WEST AMERICA. =============================================================================== Stephen Gorny [] In California, the people voted to do away Department of Psychology [] with racial preferences in hiring and University of MD Baltimore County[] school admissions and to legalize the use 5401 Wilkens Avenue [] of marijuana for medicinal purposes.

Kendrick" Subject: Some stuff First off, Justin if you ever listen to Satanists like Paul Valentine he tells us that Satanism is really humanism. It's about human power and believing in yourself and not some god. The SATANIC BIBLE is also a fairly good reference book, although some people believe Anton to be a showman. I have a slightly different interpretation of some Danzig songs than does Thom Patton. To me, Snakes of Christ is about televangelists or any other so-called 'religious person' who professes God, but acts the opposite. "I'm the One" is about someone finding their destiny, and "Her Black Wings" is about, as Glenn stated, "woman to the tenth power". Glenn has also stated that "Son of the Morning Star" is an anti-Farrakan(?) song. To Ardito, I was just making a fucking joke. Don't take it so goddman serious. ------------------------------ From: EvilDieff@aol.com Date: Sat, 1 Feb 1997 14:19:58 -0500 (EST) Subject: alternate takes Date: Sat, 1 Feb 1997 16:33:43, -0500 Subject: Philly 1/31 Hey...Went to the Electric Factory on Friday. I'd never been there before and I must say it is one of the coolest places to see a band. Powerman 5000 was boring. Nothing new. Me and a friend went upstairs and had a few beers. I thougt Electric Hellfire Club was pretty good. I even took my place downstairs. But when they started saying "Christ is dead, Hail Satan" I figured them for a bunch of flakes. The music was allright. Anyway, Danzig came on and slayed as usual. The vocals at times were a little too low, hard to hear. The set was pretty much as described except I don't remember anyone saying that he did Snakes of Christ, which was the last song of the night. The new songs sounded incredible live, with some minor vocal problems. The best however was after the show. Danzig came out and there were quite a few people waiting to meet him. Glenn sat on the steps of his bus and one at a time met every single person there. He took pictures with anyone who wanted it, talked with each for a while, signed all you could give him. He was just completely cool. I don't understand the negative rumors he gets about his attitude. For me he signed Samhain III CD book, Danzig III limited edition box set CD book, and Satanika 1, 2 and 3 of the miniseries. He answered my questions and was just a nice guy. No rock star posing or attitude at all. In the end, he shook my hand and that was that. Anyone who goes to see him, definitely wait around afterwards. It is well worth it. ...Marino ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 02 Feb 1997 10:21:34 -0400 (EDT) From: "D.ETH" Subject: Love taps, sightings, true meanings and orgies! Well, what a hotbed of controversy last issue was. Here's what I think of the whole thing... johnny hotcock had the tenacity to pass judgement: >You were acting like an ass and needed to be disciplined. Anyone >quoted as saying "I'm big and bad, I'm gonna stomp some wimps" needs to >be put in line. I'm sorry if you didn't learn anything from the >experience. I fail to see your logic. How does someone saying something you don't like give you the right to "discipline" that person? Correct me if I'm wrong, but you live in the United States of America, right? The country which, so loudly and repeatedly, proclaims it's (drumroll please) First Amendment every chance it gets. I live in Canada, so I might not know, but has this extremely popular Top priority right to all American citizens been repealed? What gives you the right to force yourself, however "lovingly" a "tap," onto another person for saying something (which certainly doesn't sound too ass-like to me, I've heard some real stupid stuff at shows, particurlarly Danzig shows) which you find objectionable? Further more, you have not even given any indication that said remark was directed at you, which might, however unlikely, have given you the right to defend yourself against such a threat. I think, dear sir, you are the ass in this confrontation. Opus, MePhiSto78 and about a zillion others over the course of god knows how long, have graciously pointed out many a "Misfits sighting" which just happens to be a rerun. Is their anyway to compile all of the known sightings into one lump sum so that the uninitiated can consult it to see if their sighting has been uncovered previously? This is getting really tedious, it seems like a new person joins the Misfits Bible and proceeds to share every sighting they have ever seen with relation to the Misfits. I think this is very considerate of them. However, it's ALL been said before. To those with an amazing discovery, please spare us having to hear about yet again. Set up a list instead and invite people to add to it whatever is found. Thomas H. Patton IV speculated: >as for the only song onthe album being about the devil being "Pain in the >World", I'm not tosure, but the snake of christ is Lucifer, I >believe.And also, I think"I'm the One" is about the coming of the >antichrist and "Her BlackWings" is about someone seeking refuge in the >arms of a demoness, maybe?Also, "Devil's Plaything" is about the power >of the Lords of Hell Hmmm... sorry Tommy, but your way off base. Check Eye Magazine 5/13/93 and Faces Magazine Summer 1990, available for perusal in the Articles section of Misfits Central and listed as "eye.93" and "faces3.90" respectively. Glenn gives some rare insights as to the true meanings of the songs and title of Lucifuge. That ought to set you on the right path. x_killebrew and Leah Justis: This "film" can neither be called strange nor fine. In a nutshell Orgy of the Dead sucks. It's not even laughably bad, a la Plan 9 or Night of the Ghouls, it's just dumb. There is a reason Ed Wood never made this movie, even he knew it was no good. That's the news folks and I am outta here.

So if it is done in good humour, I'll hand out my apologies right now. Oh, BTW, there's this long thin key at the bottom of your keyboard called spacebar; you might want to try using it so that those of us who are communicating in standard english can understand you. > Who the hell is this Heartbreak Kid guy?

First of all, the snowshoesthat Crimson > Ghost referred to were from a B/W picture/poster in whichGlenn was like, my mistake.

In Richard Cavendish's "The Black Arts", Lucifuge is referred to as >"one of the ten evil sephiroth, which are ruled by arch-demons well, al thos elittle books of yours have some nice defintions of "lucifuge", but unless they predate the latin language, they are incorrect. The definition I gave is the one most latin dictionaries give, as well as the one Glenn gives. > under the supreme command Sammael, the fell angel of poison." And as for > the only song onthe album being about the devil being "Pain in the > World", I'm not tosure, but the snake of christ is Lucifer, I first, a note to all subscribers: two = 2 to = a preposition, as in: "let's go to the Misfits concert" too = "as well", "also"; or, it is used to indicate an excessive amount (as in, "I like the Misfits, and Samhain, too" or , "most of you think my posts are too long" usually all of this is covered by grade two or three... now onto your comments about the album Lucifuge: You proceed to list all these songs on Lucifuge that may also be about Satan, as if to refute my statement that *only* "Pain in the World" is about the Devil. What you obviously didn't notice is that I WAS QUOTING GLENN DANZIG, who said that "Pain..." was the only such song. > of the Lords of Hell? Whatabout females in Danzig's videos? How many > have you seen? I think he hadwomen in Mother, She Rides, Am I Demon, I have seen all of them except for "Sacrifice" and "I Don't Mind the Pain." Of course, you missed the sarcasm of my original post. When you all read posts, does it not occur to you that sometimes other people's previous posts are sometimes included for a reason? If you look at the context in which I said "Danzig doesn't use enough girls in his videos", you would not that it was in response to someone else's claim that "Glenn doesn't seem too interested in women" (or something). Do I have to spell it out for you? It's SARCASM. > the One, where he's out in a cabinin the Louisiana Bayou with chicks. I > can't remember too much about itthough because it was on Hard Copy or > Inside Edition ar one of thoseshows and they were talking about bands > using BEAUTIFUL, GLAMOROUSMODELS IN THEIR VIDEOS!!!!! Also, I'm sure if BTW, foo those few of us who even like Danzig, the clip this guy saw on Inside Edition or whatever is not the same "I'm the One" that's on the Lucifuge home video; it is edited slightly differently, with a few other scenes. > yeah, incidently, Son ofthe Morning Star is also about the star Lucifer, no, actually, it is about Satan himself, not the star. (according to someone who should know --- namely, the guy who wrote it). But that song is not on Danzig II, so it has nothing to do with what I was talking about anyway... 6> say. Who "they"are, I don't know. Next, he tries to say Marvel had Hulk > Hogan trademarked in 1962? Idon't think so. They may have had the name Christ, you should really learn to read. I didn't say that at all. I said they had "The Hulk" trademarked in 1962, LONG BEFORE Terry Bolea (?) ever used the name. You actually used, virtually verbatim, one of my own statements to prove me wrong. Of course, if you had comprehended my statement in the first place, you would have realized that I was saying the exact same thing you just did. > (?) states his opinion, this guy says he'sgonna kick his teeth > down his throat. Watch out buddy. It's not sizethat counts it's hatred > and rage cause once somebody starts beating onsomeone and they've build > up rage inside of them all their life thereain't too much that's gonna > stop 'em. So keep that in mind. Until next time...Rebel Angel. uhh, well, yes, I'm sure you're quite the credit to dementia, and that gibberish about rage must have some meaning to you, but I really don't know what you're talking about. As for size, even if it does count, at 5'4" I would hardly be in a position to use it over someone else, would I? As for the teeth down the throat, (?) understood that I was quoting WWF Champion Shawn Michaels, whose finishing maneouvre is a kick to the face. He understood that I was joking around, and he responded the way Steve Austin would have. Now, if you are not a wrestling fan, I wouldn't expect you to know this, but if you have a brain, I would expect you to know when two people are having a little fun with each other -- and not to bud-in by flaming me for it. > From: tes777@bridge.net (Tammy S.) > Actually, Brett i think your taking this wrestling thing a little to far.

I don't respond to every word, in fact I ignore quite a bit. I personally don't think it's interesting reading other people's bashings of Glenn, because it's always the same groundless bullshit over and over. Although I will say that, as screwed-up and foolish as they are, at least CG puts some thought into his criticisms. (oh come on, that line is begging for someone to flip out on me. You saps...) Anyway Tammy, I think YOU really think I'm getting psychotic when I'm really only having a little laugh. ...although I guess that is an ironic statement considering everything I just said to that other guy above... oh well, "I know you wouldn't want to be me, but believe me, even if you wanted to be me, you couldn't" -BRETT NOT FRANK ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 02 Feb 1997 17:18:44 -0800 From: Inzo Subject: Most fabulous 138 sighting of all time Ha, you slippy monkeys, I have found the most bestest 138 sighting and it's 20 years old! I went to see the new Star Wars last night. I was paying attention for new scenes, and I came across an old scene that was the most exciting for me. I never new this... When Han and Luke take Chewy to the detention block to rescue the Princess, The guard says "What is thisssss thing??????" Luke says "Prisoner tranfer from cell block 1138." HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH The Empire must be Misfits fans. :| ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 2 Feb 1997 20:39:21 -0500 From: "Jason St. Jacques" Subject: Satanists Okay, for all you simpletons who think you know Jack-shit about the world, go read the Satanic Bible by Anton Lavey (spelling?!?!). This is their bible, so it's pretty accurate to their beliefs. Read it before you guys babble about shit you know nothing about (a regular phenomenon in here). Anyway, for those of you that are too scared to read it [because you might go to hell], the beginning of the book explains evil as Christians ignoring primal instacts to LIVE (evil= live backwards, you get the idea). The church is there to control you; they believe only animals masturbate, so humans should not (to deny that we are animals), blah, blah,blah. Okay basic stuff that those who aren't Satanics should believe. Anton also writes that he doesn't believe in black magic, black masses, the devil (as an entity), but the second half of the book is spells, the names of the devil and shit like that. It's a load of shit. So before you judge/comment on something please know what you are talking about. I might be forced to sacrifice you to my god....ME. If you want to know more about Satanics, you can ask me. My knowledge is limited, but I can help a little. Also I suggest you read the Satanic Bible, just to get an idea of what they're about. Don't buy it though.

Item #1 - A gold EARTH AD compact disc, mint condition, played only twice to make a tape of the songs for my walkman. Limited to 15000 copies, according to Mark Kennedy's official discography. Item #2 - a drumstick used by Dr. Chud during the Misfits' May 6th, 1996 show at the SUB ZERO club in Danbury, CT. This was caught by me when he threw it out into the crowd during a break in the set. After the show I managed to get Jerry and Doyle to sign it! Item #3 - ticket stub from the above show, goes with the stick for free. I would like to keep the items together but will break them up if absolutely necessary. I'd like to start the bidding (which will be conducted by email) at $50 for the CD, and $15 for the drumstick. this email address has had a few problems lately so as a backup you can send a message to valgamon@virulence.snet.net, or valgamon@duncan.nac.net Cheers! - Valg ------------------------------ From: "EditorialStaff@EvilMagazine" Date: Mon, 3 Feb 1997 10:43:52 GMT-0400 Subject: Re: Adam West in Halifux Yes there is another Adam West and Dan Sylvester is Right, they are girlie Rock and They Fuckin Suck ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 3 Feb 1997 00:54:49 -0500 From: tes777@bridge.net (Tammy S.) Subject: Does anyone really read the bible... Hello fiends... First off - the Misfits Bible T-shirt thing. Jason no one ripped of you or anything Glenn did. The process in getting to the design of the front and back of the t-shirt was this(being that i ran the voting and such). first we had a pole with 5 questions to decide what the design should look like, next we took a vote on that. once we had the idea to what the design for the front would look like all artists that were bible subscribers were asked to submit designs that fit the look we all agreed on. we had i think about 12 different ones which were also voted on. the winner was Greg's design. i had pointed out in the very beginning that i would be designing the back. and i did not try to copy anything. i drew out several different ideas till i saw one that worked. the CG that i used was a photo of the real CG from the serial, that i had altered to make it look like a drawing. which also goes back to the reason why i did not take on desiging the front design. I am a graphic designer not a fine artist. my drawing skill would not match that of Greg's or any of the other people who drew the design concept. so that is how we got both designs for the t-shirt. Romual_Piecyk - i hate to tell you this but if you were reading the bible last week you would have seen that both Bile666 and myself had posted about Daznig cancelling the show at Roseland. Misfits 101... who has what... The new issue of MRR is out, and what is up for graps. no vinyl but lots of video footage. Merel, GG's brother who will sell you anything under the sun including his brother on vinyl, tape and video. has some misfits footage on his list. also Peter De Mattia is still serving it up after 10 years that i know of. though footage that some of my friend have from this guy was not so hot back in 1988. he is now sporting an e-mail address peterd@warwick.net oh and if you are looking for all the colors for Collection 2 Vinyl Ink has all three for sale. plus they are on the internet. the rest is Danzig stuff but nothing to new. all i can say is i hope Ashes makes it to a release. oh to the guy with the Die Die poster, one that is a bootleg and there were several of them out there. One that had the back of Legacy, one for WAU, the Die Die, and a couple others. the price range was $10-15 when they first came out. at this point i have not seen a lot of them around. if i remeber correctly some were british imports like some of the bootlegged 7"s. it seems each country took a shot at bootlegging Misfits items. though Germany had the best success at it. at one point and one of the reasons i gave up buying bootlegs was Germany churned out 30 different bootlegs in one month. also MRR did a article on all the bootlegs being made. talked a little about some the misfits ones. though the original poster for the misfits were not big like the bootleg ones. the Three hits i have is small in comparison. and the WAU promo poster is a perfect square. finding them is not as easy as the bootlegs. it took me years to get the promo WAU. well more stuff next time.

I'll post this again: VIOLENT WORLD - A Tribute To The Misfits Release date: February 11, 1997 _________________________________________________________________ Imagine mixing Metal, Hardcore, East and West Coast Punk, Krishnacore and Vegan Straight Edge with the outrageous b-movie horror fixation of the Misfits. You'd have the Violent World: a homage to one of the greatest punk rock bands ever by some of the best rock bands of the 1990's, bands that would not be the same today without the Misfits. Violent World consists of 14 never-before-released Misfits covers which were recorded exclusively for this record. Many of these bands, including Snapcase, Therapy? and Pennywise have added these versions to their live sets, futher preaching the Misfits' ever-growing legacy to new legions of fans across the country and around the world. The bands on this compilation chose what song to cover and with whom they would record it. They chose people like the legendary hardcore guru Don Fury, producer of CIV and Quicksand, who recorded both the Bouncing Soles and Sick Of It All tracks and Bill Stevenson of Descendents, All and Black Flag fame, who produced the Shades Apart track. Track List: Side 1 1. She - Snapcase 2. Astro Zombies - Pennywise 3. 20 Eyes - Shades Apart 4. TV Casualty - Tanner 5. Where Eagles Dare - Therapy? 6. London Dungeon - Prong 7. Death Comes Ripping - 108 Side 2 1. Mommy, Can I Go Out And Kill Tonight? - Bouncing Souls 2. Ghouls Night Out - Goldfinger 3. Horror Business - Deadguy 4. All Hell Breaks Loose - Sick Of It All 5. Last Caress - NOFX 6. Earth A.D. - Earth Crisis 7. Return Of The Fly - Farside _________________________________________________________________ ASSORTED INFO: The album was produced by Tom Bejgrowicz who also produced the Misfits Box Set and Collection II. The album will be released in limited quantities of Orange, Green, and White vinyl, not to mention a permanent issue of black vinyl, and the usual CD and cassette.

Glenn mentioned on a radio interview a few years ago that his father is of German-Italian descent, and his mother is of Scots descent. He went on to say something like "Every time I go to Scotland, my mom tells me to look up some relatives". >What is the name of the guy who does tattooes for Danzig and Rollins?

This was one of Ed Wood's necro-porn efforts, which he got into in the late 60s/early 70s, after the failure of his sci-fi movies. The book 'Nightmare of Ecstacy: The Life and Art of Edward D.

Take a look at Milner's license plate. It reads "THX 138" ... of course, "American Graffitti" is a George Lucas film, so obviously he was plugging a certain other film of his...

Here are some observations. 1. The Electric Factory was about 1/2 full at the most. This really surprised me, especially after my buddy telling me of the packed shows he has seen at the Ritz a few years back. I saw the Ramones there last year, and it was packed to the gills, during a huge snow storm to boot. 2. Since I dont like industrial, and I hated Danzig 5, the new tunes bored the hell out of me, but I guess I expected that. 3. Tommy Victor can play. His tone wasnt as good (IMHO) as Johns, but he pulled off all the licks no sweat, and did all the note dives WITHOUT a whammy (neck bends) which really impressed me. Tommy needs to stop smiling. There is no reason to smile on stage when playing Danzig. Your supposed to look evil and pissed off. 4. Lazie? ---- yawn 5. Castillo. Ok drummer I guess, but he is no Biscuits. Chuck pounds the hell out of the drums, this guy was just there. The old tunes sounded good, not great, just good. Never having seen Danzig before (and I had a chance on every tour since '88, I just kept putting it off! I have lived to regret it!) I can only compare to what I have heard on the albums. I'm not going to go see him again. AZ Ps - The Electric Hellfire Club was the worst band I've ever seen. They even covered "Calling Dr. Love" by Kiss. I'm glad we got there 2/3 through there set, I would have killed myself. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 03 Feb 1997 09:48:24 -0800 From: ADAMN#15 Subject: Tattoos women and other things Someone said in Bible #291 >Cresswell, I believe the guy who does Rollins' tattoos is Rick Spellman.

Tammy definitely knows what she is talking about when it comes to collecting and find originals for low prices. The lowest prices you will ever find will always be found at record conventions. I found a tan cover Unholy Passion for $10, an original Agnostic Front Victim in Pain [Rat cage records, original cover] and their first ep United Blood [pre-RatCage version] [$12 total], Cro-Mags Age of Quarrel 10 inch [$10], and an original Madball Balls of destruction [$1] at record conventions. Most of the time the dealers do not know what they have, especially if they buy collections and just try to sell them off. Goldmine is a very good place to look, but people who advertise there know what they have and charge accordingly. I also found it cheaper to buy NYHC stuff from dealers ANYWHERE outside the tri-state region. Misfits items will be a lot cheaper in butt-fuck Montana than in Bleeker Bobs in NYC [which has an excellent selection of old punk/hardcore/oi, but charge WAAAAAY too much]. Incidentally, my best find was an Initium Cd with Unholy Passion on it. This rarity was bought right off the shelf brand new from a record chain [the old Record World]. Guess I was lucky enough to find onre of the factory slips [and so was my friend who also has one too]. >From: Inzo >Subject: Most fabulous 138 sighting of all time > >Ha, you slippy monkeys, I have found the most bestest 138 sighting and >it's 20 years old!

I am assuming your questions are legit, but if not, I guess I'm the fool. 1. Vinyl is an ancient (i.e., popular until the late 80s/early 90s) form of distributing music, sometime called LP (For Long Playing record) or EP (Extened Playing record) and in the punk world, the most common 7" EP (7" being the diameter of the vinyl disc in question) Since there is now a whole generation that has never seen a vinyl record, I assume this question is valid. 2. i will pass on this one, check the webpage 3. Glenn left because he wanted to. I guess it was time for a "career" change which became Samhain, which then became Danzig, which is now Nine Inch Glenn. Personally, I am waiting for a surf album by Glenn. He can get Dick Dale to play guitar. Now THAT would be cool. He could call it "Danzig 6, HangTenwiththeDevil" Teevie Alan asked "Heya's.. i just found a website for an "Uncle Floyd >Show"... could this >possibly be the same one with the infamous Misfits appearance 'way back?

I was at the January 31st H2O show at the Trocadero in Philly and a couple interesting things took place. First Lars from Rancid (who I'm not particularly a fan of) Joined the band for their rendition of Minor Threat's SALAD DAYS and the Cro-Mags HARD TIMES (you fiends know the Cro-Mags don't you?). Why this was interesting enough to mention here on the Bible was that the word drifting around the crowd was that Lars came to the Troc show after the Danzig show across town finished and was accompanied to the Troc by Glenn Danzig himself. I personally didn't see Glenn and can't confirm anything but I thought it was an interesting rumor. Later.

I think, dear sir, you are the ass in this confrontation. Well, I live in the USA, and I say that it is all bullshit. I say that there is no real freedom, and that the government is facist. So, then I have to say that the dude that punched him is an asshole. I mean, when he punched him he created two classes of people, the masters(opressors) and the slaves. That happens everyday here (and elsewhere). America is all about being a hypocrite. Beating on people who say or do things different that you. So, to Johnny Hotcock, fuck you. You decide that you are going to change someone's ideas by beating on them? It won't and doesn't, and never will work. If someone says somehting dumb, put it in their fucking face, and tell them. Don't hit them. shit head. Although, I gotta give D.ETH credit, you said some good stuff. But, see the reality of America is completely different from the perception. America is fake and plastic. The constitution is a rat shit piece of paper that people worship, as is the flag a tattered old piece of cloth(which is SACRED). So, if you like to worship multiple false gods, indoctrination, facism, and lies... please come right over. Not to say it's any better in Canada. Or Elsewhere.

I subscribed like 4 issues ago, so someone else might have mentioned this already, but who cares. A while ago I was doing my homework so that I'll be smart and my CD player(on random play at the time) picked, "Mommy Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight?" on Collection One. I listened while working up until the part where all the music stops and the question is asked, "Mommy Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight?''. I stopped and listened intenly and I heard a faint voice in the background, like one from a horror movie perhaps(?). It is kind of hard to hear, but it is there, I couldn't come up with another solution besides the character from a horror movie, and I was wondering if antone else has heard it or if anyone knows whose/what's voice it is.

"i'm satanic" has that nice goth ring to it that all the spooky kids go for. it justifies throwing cats (or, if my pet theory is correct, hot dogs ;) into wells, which is a nice power trip for a downtrodden 13 year old. minus the fabled cat-drowning proclivities of your average "satanist", this would be okay, EXCEPT they dont read up on their religion of choice (except maybe CD inserts) enought to prove anything about themselves. of course, i am generalizing grossly, so if you happen to be an actual satanist with half a brain, forgive me. fay ps- does anyone else think that bass thing at the end of bringer of death is on the Descent II soundtrack? um, it's not like i actually PLAY descent or anything, just wondering. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 3 Feb 1997 22:08:10 -0800 (PST) From: Daniel Herrmann Subject: The Crimson Ghost (edit) Last time I forgot the nose.

The industrial rhythms sound recycled (which is part of the industrial methodology, I suppose), and Danzig's nascent guitar playing leaves you lusting to hear these 10 tracks (including a jazzy revamping of Black Sabbath's "Hand Of Doom") remade live by the band's latest hire, Prong vocalist/guitarist Tommy Victor. Alice In Chains' Jerry Cantrell contributes guitar to three tracks, which helps immeasurably. ---- a few things: 'nascent' means 'freshly emerging'. does this guy realize that Glenny did (my guess) 70-90% of the Samhain guitarwork and a small amount of uncredited work to Misfits and Danzig material? once again, the bassist gets ignored. Eerie added just as much to the Danzig sound as JC. 'jazzy revamping'? "Hand Of Doom" wasn't jazzy to begin with? :P also in the same issue, Kip Winger has a new album coming out March 4th, titled THISCONVERSATIONSEEMSLIKEADREAM. does everybody have name their albums with one long name.

Subject: It just amazing to me... Hello fiends... first off, i see Tarry knows what i have been talking about. Amazing if you just took the time to look. You might actually save some money. Plus the only way i varify if its not a bootleg is the DANZIG challege. everytime i see Glenn i get a bunch of the record sleeves together and hand them over with a pen. so far only one out of the entire collection. Chris - what if Glenn was actually wearing 'BLUE' jeans? boy that would blow so many minds that he might just be human after all. ;) Matt - you are kidding aren't you? vinyl is a term for RECORDS , you know; 7", 12", 10" 45, 33 1/3, 78 all that stuff. ok we have said this once before if you don't know 138 then you just aren't going to get it. then i think AZ or D.ETH pointed out a while ago that if they told you, you would have to die after that. As for why Glenn left the Misfits, i think you need to go to a Danzig show and after the show is over to to the bus and ask Glenn yourself, i'm sure he would be glad to take the time and explain in detail why he left the Misfits. ;) (hey, we're fiends for a reason, remember.) Christopher Wilson - i think someone is going to point out that you ripped of their idea for a t-shirt. and if you think your the first PERmoronSON to say Glenn is a sell out then you need some serious help. By the way Brett your not the only one who is just playing and having a little laugh. oh yeah, someone was a little off on their horror the past issue or so. Night of the Ghouls is considered part 2 of Plan 9. Criswell is in this one too. it is also about raising the dead and or communicating with the dead. Misfits 101... Who to trust, more like Trust no one... well i see some of these pop up on the bible from time to time. does anyone know so and so he has not sent me and i can't get in touch with him. i've seen these for years in MRR(maximum rock and roll) and flipside. the nice thing about the bible is you don't have to pay to ask the question and later fry that person for ripping you off in the first place. i have gotten a lot of questions about, is this price ok for this record. it is hard to trust anyone you buy from and i can't say there is one record store or one person who will never screw you. even places i have bought from for years screwed up or screwed me some how. i have a DOA 7" i got in an auction, they never told me it did not have a sleeve, but they sent me a sleeve anyway. so i paid $20 for a very valuable DOA 7" Disco Sucks but the sleeve is for Prisoner. what the hell do i do with that. or you order something you are dying for and they tell you they lost it. and this is from some of the top record stores in the states. Well first ask around before you buy anything. ask about the person if its trade or a straight sale. i ask other traders i know, i've asked Mark and EVB about some people who have contacted me when they saw my wants on the collectors page. i don't know everyone and i don't pretend to. i know that there is a good chance that another collector might know them. if its a record store, i hate to say it but the safest way is with a credit card, at least you can get the company to deal with the store if they screw you. it is a catch 22 for sellers though, people like myself who sell records in auctions or straight sales like money orders since we know the buyer can't screw us with a check that might bounce. the record stores mail order is safe, especially if they are a place like Vinyl Ink and others that have long standing reputations. it is easy to burn them if they screw you and they can't afford that. the other part is knowing the records and that goes back to the detailing i did. you can't get screwed if you know what to look for, and ask all the questions you can about the record before you make the deal. i know you get excited about getting a shot at that original Misfits record, i've been there too. but you need to keep your trend of thought or you are dead meat, with numbers of people waiting to pounce on you. in MRR, its $4 for 60 words, which is nothing compared to what some of these guys can rip off from collectors who don't know what they are doing. plus i can't point this out enough, the ones who sell Misfits out of MRR and Flipside know all to well what they got and what it's worth. and some of them are collectors of the same. to them, new collectors are just a way to make some extra bucks, and big bucks at that. i knew a kid who was collecting back in 92. and was trying to go after some of the same items i was, different sellers and traders though. the money that this one guy wanted from him was ridiculous. plus i found it funny that i was not allowed to get a catalog or buy from this guy, he refused to sell me a Cough/ Cool cause i did not agree that it was worth giving him $350. he turned around and sold it to my friend. to them its who will give them the prices they ask for. you never have to agree, i never did. that is why you bargain. bargaining can be your best friend, it was mine when i got my color vinyl 7"s. so what if they think your a big pain in the ass, you didn't get ripped and pay their car payment for them did you. well till next time. and some more vinyl later.

Respond if you care. rob It's Glenn. The band recorded the instrumental parts a few months before they did the vocals. They had Glenn time the pause after the music stops by yelling out the lyrics. Later, he sang that section again when he recorded the rest of the lyrics.

Black vinyl copies also have the sticker in the top corner as well, so there is only one way to know - open it up. There were 500 clear copies put out in November of 1995. Black vinyl copies have been out since April 1996.

He could call it "Danzig >6, HangTenwiththeDevil" HAHAHAHAHH - that's the funniest thing I've seen here in a while. nick winkleback asked (politely): >I have the first pressing Caroline Misfits box set and I've >noticed something rather odd about the Static Age CD: It seems you have >to break it to open it, since the whole blasted thing seems fused >together. Does anyone have any thoughts/suggestions on this? It's funny that you referred to the "box" as a first press. Caroline pressed so many goddamn copies of the thing that I'm sure it will be around for quite some time. To get the Static Age cover to open. Lay it in one hand with the back (the side with the track listings) facing you. Then simply apply light pressure to the Caroline logo while pushing it away from you. The back is inset on tracks and slides out. There is some molding flash in there and the first two or three times you open it it's kinda hard but after it wears away it's pretty easy. Tim somebody or other said the following in response to HBK's grammar lesson re: to, too & two: >Notice the use of "foo". Is that in place of "fool"? Or "four"? Or >most likely "for"? >Next time think logically, and don't correct someone until you >know that you yourself are. Okay, jackass? Speak for yourself asswipe. HBK made a friggin' typo, he was complaining about people using the wrong words (a different animal all together). Let's take a look at your grammar Tim: >Notice the use of "foo". - ok good >Is that in place of "fool"? - Is *what* in place of fool?

Why is Glenn a sellout? Lets not jump on the bandwagon or anything, Chris. Did he sell out because his music style changed, or because he's short. I fucking LOVE EVERYTHING THAT GLENN HAS EVER PUT OUT, but honestly , wouldnt he get a little boring if he didnt change the music? I guess Glenn sold out when he released BULLET EP, Earth AD, INITIUM, DANZIG 1, DANZIG4P, and DANZIG 5. Why bother coming on this bible if you dont like Glenn. Dont get me wrong I love and worship Glenn, Jerry, Doyle John Christ, Chuck, but if it wasnt for Glenn (and Mark) there would be no Misfits bible. Chris, I really hope you are not one of those guys who thinks a band (or Person) is a sellout if they become famous. My main goal in life is to become famous, not for $ or girls but so everyone can hear my music and I can get my point across, how am I gonna do that if I am only known as a "Local Legend" or in other words, "I have no talent so I'll be cool in my home town 'cause thats the only place I can get any respect"..... just an excuse.

Now with the re-release, this will bury the SBTB > "sighting" as most annoyingly mentioned 138 reference. > Look my brother, My knowledge of Star Wars is not minimal. I've been into The trilogy since I was little. I remember going to the theatre opening night of Return of the Jedi, when I was 7 yrs old. Up in my clost is every original Star Wars figure, most of them are in extremely good condition. I have them all but Luke in Stormtrooper disguise, Han in Carbonite, and Yak Face. I also have all the new ones. I have not watched Star Wars since I got into the Misfits. I started listening to them in October of 1995. Yeah not that long ago, but believe me, I'm into it. So, when I watched it, I came across that line. Why does that make my knowledge minimal? I guess you don't know that I collect sci fi movies? I have THX-1138 you nerf herder!!! When I was little I was in the Star Wars fiend club. So don't say my knowledge is minimal, I know someone who went to Skywalker ranch to personally meet George Lucas. I've been reading this bible for a year and have never seen a post about what I posted. I've mainly been hearing about Saved By the Bell and Jimmy Heart. SO my post is the most annoying? I've heard about the Saved by the Bell sighting about 12 times. I've never seen this one. and the rescently posted American Graffiti liscense plate sighting is new to me. I noticed this, you swine, when Luke gets knocked back and R2 plays him the message, did you notice Lukes Skyhopper in the background? I just noticed that. This was weird, I ordered Invaders From Mars from 1-800-4-Movies cuz I couldn't find it anywhere and Suncoast video (they don't rent, they sell) said it was out of print. Anyway, the one I got was generic and had no box. Yesterday I went to the New Blockbuster in town (every video store, even if they're the same name, all have not the same items) and the had for sale, two copies of Invaders From Mars, The copyright was 1996 so it must've just been reissued. This was a real surprise. It's on Goodtime Home Video and the catalog number is 05-08827. I also picked up a childhood favorite, War Of The Worlds and I also got Dawn Of The Dead. Oh, 1-800-4-movies charged me 20.00 bucks and I didn't even get a box, Blockbuster had it for $9.99. Zycki, you may say that my knowledge of THX-1138 is minimal, I only watched it once, it was very boring. Don't try to front on me again. I'll put a bounty on your head so big, every bounty hunter in the galaxy will be after you. http://www.ecis.com/~mikei/index3.htm ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 05 Feb 1997 13:47:01 -0500 From: Villnave Subject: Danzig in Buffalo, my story Well I saw Danzig in Buffalo on the 4th and here is how it was... The first band Powerman 5000...WOW! Where did they find these guys , in the line trying out to be in korn? These guys were the biggest wiggers I've ever seen in my life! I couldn't tell if they were covering Korn or Rage or each member playing something from each band's songs. They fucking sucked!!! Basically everyone was walking around doing nothing while they were playing and this one guy who looked exactly like Glenn (huge fan I take it) got dragged out by security trying to get these guys off the stage. Entertaining. They didn't play long but it seemed like forever and they had the bass drum miced and processed so it was that deep thud bass like rap or something. Not good on the ears! I got the hell away from these idiots! Then comes Electric Hellfire Club. While I could have made the music on a little Rapmaster Keyboard from radio shack I kinda dug these guys. I mean..they were at least different and definitely not wiggers...not mainstream. They were new and different. Fruity ass pop songs with satanic lyrics...good fun to me..if I wasn't waiting for Danzig. The chick they had dancing was pretty hot and her tits were just popping out of this thing. She was looking at me and pointing and shit and damn did I want to slam her head into a wall and spank her... hmm..but anyway.. an entertaining experience. But you have to understand..the bass drum was pre-programmed..and the drummer hit 4 pads...2 toms, snare, cymbal, and he'd jump around and hit them and occasionally miss. The keyboardist did normal keyboard/samples, the singer had a British accent a little and the guitarist just played the easiest guitar parts I have ever seen! And the chick..well.. did what she was supposed to do I think ;) They finally left in full satanic robing ripping up a bible yelling hail Satan.. Then overture comes on... Tommy comes out and is running around getting the crowd going.. then I see Castillo's shadow..and damn..when did he get so huge! I see Lazie sneaking out . Then Overture ends and I see Glenn run out, stand in the middle of the stage, and point out. The PACKED club went insane. I know everyone's been saying attendance is low but this place was capacity (more) and it was a big place. Some people couldn't even see the stage. They played Mother and Glenn was going so nuts he wasn't even singing. He was just ripping around like a madman! Tommy was smiling...Does he do a lot of drugs or something? He seemed a bit..high. Glenn was intense the entire show and just didn't stop. The crowd was real violent and Glenn was pushing the crowd more and more. The new songs sounded good! Better than I thought they would and the old stuff was good but again, John and Eerie would have been nice but oh well. I can't see John playing Blackacidevil to be honest anyway so..whatever. Tommy seemed to Marilyn-Mansonize the Long Way Back .From Hell solo. Lazie looked really into it and did a great job on bass. Glenn seemed happy and intense up there. More so than in 95 with John,Joey,and Eerie. They seemed to have pre-recorded intros to 7thHouse and other new ones just played, which is ok, but I was wondering what they were gonna do live. Her Black Wings started with this sort of techno beat going it was kind of odd, but it worked once the beat kicked in. The drumming was very good and he was hitting HARD. Glenn jumped down twice with audience, shaking hands etc. I got to him cause I was in the front but man this started a riot! He was pointing at one guy in the audience who was a lamer and said "how ya doin gomer pile".. It was so funny cause this guy looked like him. The guy was motioning Glenn to come down, almost menacingly. Then Glenn made a gun with his hand and "shot" him. One thing I noticed is Glenn's vocals should have been louder but at the front and center of the stage you don't hear the PA as much as the onstage shit anyway. His voice is so strong I could actually hear him above everything when he was close to me. He threw out his necklace, starting another riot..same with his water. The show just fucking rocked.. They left after Long Way Back From Hell and came back out to do She Rides and Snakes of Christ. After the set he introduced the new members and everyone gave each one applause and they place just got loud with yells of "danzig rules".. Tommy threw out souvenirs after the shoe and Lazie jumped into the crown and landed half on me. Here's the songs that were played with a brief review of each one (no I don't remember the order) Mother- So intense he didn't even sing. Being down here front and center redefined pain for me once again. Crowd was singing louder than the band was playing. Sacrifice-When this went into the chorus it rocked! The strobes were going nuts and the crowd just erupted. Glenn was all over the place. Blackacidevil-Started out with the beginning being played over the PA then Joey kicked in. The guitar seemed undefined..as Tommy played whatever he wanted. There were distortions on Glenn's voice in this, but no other songs. I distinctly saw him signal the distortion, and then heard it.. so it was there. Hint of her blood-This was one of my favorites. The lights were low and he made it like he was telling a story using his hands to tell it . Tommy was putting in these little guitar licks that I didn't care for, but, Glenn didn't get distracted so I guess it's with permission. I got the impression Glenn let them do what they wanted. Deep- This fucking rocked. The bass was LOW and the lights were down. When they went into the chorus it was just powerful. Glenn was whipping all around and Tommy was doing some cool licks on the guitar.. He introduced it as the one from the X-files Soundtrack, Deep. Twist of Cain- This got the crowd more excited than any other. It just rocked. The front of the crowd looked like the crowd in the old videos, headbanging and such, fists in the air. She Rides-For some reason the crowd was into this least, I dug it cause a few chicks got topless. Besides this was always one of my favs. Long Way Back From Hell- They played it real fast and hard and the Glenn put a foot on the monitor and sang the choruses, in the other parts he ran around. Again, I didn't like the solo much, but he is not John Christ. Snakes of Christ- This was really fast. The crowd was singing loud. Her Black Wings- Started with some techno beat but kicked in normal. IT was played really fast, and before the bitch line Glenn stopped and put he mic down and just Grinned at the audience and got them going. Dirty Black Summer- This rocked.. enough said. Again, played fast. Left Hand Black- Glenn looked really evil in this song and a lot of people dug it. I had never heard them play this before live so it was a treat. Until You Call On The Dark- This was the 3rd song played and they played this TOO fast in my opinion. Glenn was still running around so much and head banging he let the audience to the singing, who was louder than the band anyway. Bringer of Death- The pit was huge! They played it fast and HARD and Glenn went down and let my area sing the Bringer of Death lines. Before the fast part Glenn put the mic down and kneeled at the front of the stage pointing at the audience laughing evilly with this evil look on his face and was nodding his head. He wanted to see some skulls rolling around after this I think. The place went INSANE. It was the best.. So fucking violent..the way it should have been. 7th House- I was waiting for this cause it just kicks my ass. I hear the beginning being played over the PA as Glenn drank some water, and then it just erupted. It just kicked the whole place's ass! When he went into the Chorus It was louder than anything I ever heard in my life, both strobes went on and every other light in the club. It was like looking at the sun and Glenn was flipping out! I have never seen him this intense ever before in my life. It was just the best... my fav of the night! It's Coming Down-This was hard hitting. Castillo impressed me on the drums on this and Glenn put out the mic letting us sing the chorus. This was fast but it just rocked! That's the show as far as I remember it. I keep using the same words. fast,hard,intense. The new band is great and I look forward to them coming back. I don't what the problem is everywhere else but they just kicked my ass. My ears are still ringing loud ass hell at 2pm the day after.

He was at the show till at least one so unless it was really really late that H20 went on...He could have gone before Danzig's set but I doubt it. 3rd-Mommy. Do you think that there's a voice before or after it says that? Now if it was a tape of Michale, it would probably just be him telling everyone to quit saying it before he does. That really busts his chops, did anyone ever notice? 4th-to John Kendrick, get a copy of the magazine and back order it. My friend Emily did the same thing so she should be able to tell you how to order it actually. her address is 03651@udel.edu I think. 5th-Glenn didn't leave the misfits because he was too short. He left because everyone else was too tall. Leah ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 5 Feb 1997 11:13:58 -0800 From: Neil McAllister Subject: Vondur!!

NEIL ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 05 Feb 1997 15:38:57 -0800 From: Grandpa Atomic Subject: Record Collecting Tips Hi. I'm relatively new to the Misfits Bible, but I've noticed people asking questions about collector stuff, and I've been collecting for quite some time, and having dealt with tons of sleazies and tons of folks on the up-and-up, I'm going to try to help you people not get screwed with a few tips, if Tammy already said them, I'm sorry (maybe I'll even manage to put some Misfits info in here too!) First of all, people who advertise in MRR and Flipside do know what they're talking about, but more than a few of them have a reputation to uphold. Guys like Ryan Richardson and Jukka Sateri and Nathalie V. advertise pretty much every month with "Tons of punk rock mega-rarities". This would give you the assumption they're on the level. Some are...I've traded with all three of the above and gotten my stuff, but I would still watch out. These people are putting themselves in the public spotlight, and leaving a trail, so here's a few ways to make sure you get the trade done: 1) This is pretty basic, but if the address is a PO Box or a company name, not a person's name or home address, there is a better chance you're gotta get had. For example if the place is called "77 Records" at "P.O. Box 400" or something, that's not giving you a persons name or a real address where you can reach them...when you send something again, don't be surprised to get return mail. 2) Try to get a phone #. And don't just use it as a back-up. I'm paranoid when I'm sending Crap Detectors records through the mail, and I want to make sure everything goes down well. I will call the number first. I make sure the person is there, and I talk to them. However, if you really want to be safe, don't stop there. Look them up in a phone directory, and see if the number and address are the same by their name as the ones they told you they were. If this all goes down smoothly, at least you know where they are so you can contact them if they rip you off. 3) Even if the records actually go in the mail, it's important to make sure they send them properly and for decency, you should send them properly too. Go to a place like (where I am) Mailboxes Etc. These people are great. They helped me pick out the right packages, get the right stuff in the actual box, insure the package correctly, and gave me a good timeframe of when the stuff will get there. Everytime I've used them my stuff has gotten to the reciepient as good as it was sent. The Postal Service works too, but they're more crowded and less personable. Support Mom and Pop stores if you have any around you (I don't). Make sure you reach a shipping agreement with the other person as well, and make your position felt on it. And if you're sending a package, and it's insured and registered, you got proof ya sent it, no-lose situation. 4) NEVER RUSH. Always take precautions. A questionable judgement I've seen some people make is to only do "You send first". This can lead people to not want to trade with you, but if you inform people this is the only way you do it and provide about eight zillion good refrences (make sure their screen names aren't all @aol.com too if you're doing internet)...new traders obviously can't do this (don't forge refrences, even if you intend to send, it only gets you into trouble...) but people who've been around the block can obvious do this. 5) This might seem obvious, and it's ill-placed as a "Last step" but come on people, don't forget to research what you're getting. What if it's a bootleg? Not the promised black/purple swirl vinyl? WHAT IF YOU DIDN'T EVEN GET IT!? Before you say "Aw nuts" and run around mailing lists and classifieds posting "I'm gonna get this bastard!" notes (which just encourage him to bunker up and hide)...what do you do? Well, if you checked up on the phone # and such like I told you, call them up at 3 AM. "Where's my record!" A week of that oughtta get the record out...no, but seriously, here are some "I been ripped off, whadda I do?" tips, that I've seen work. a) Got any friends or contacts who live near this guy? Show up at his house. "Hello, I'm looking for this record." That at least has him knowing you're serious. b) Inquire with those friggin' cops or with the postal service. Not getting what you agreed to is mail fraud, over state lines, which is a big no-no in the law's eyes. c) Get into contact with him somehow. If you didn't get his phone #, write the letter again. I'm sorry to say this, but with a PO Box or with no-name on the person, your chances are SLIM of finding your stuff, so always be careful. If it's PO Box or no-name, send a few pre-letters first...dig up some dirt for a back-up in case he rips you off. But mail frauders deserve whatever you think of to do to them! d) If the person is in a public spotlight or is a big trader, hose their reputation. If they ripped you off, the least you can do is to warn others not to send to this address. Again, PO Boxes can be changed, and they can use their friends' address, but if you explain to people what happened they can be wary not to get ripped off. A bad trader list is floating out there somewhere...I have my own "Trading Blacklist" which is currently two pages long... I may have repeated a lot of important points there, but the basics exist...trading by mail does include some element of risk...you gotta watch out. As for trading at conventions...here, if you get ripped off, you're gonna get ripped off by a bad deal, not by no records. Record collecting is a risky buisness folks...bootlegs come out ALL THE TIME and some collectors can shag you with bands you never heard of or supposed "ultra-rare" bootlegs that are about as rare as the new Nirvana CD. The best way to avoid this is to have an expierienced collector friend with you who knows the ropes. Not everyone knows someone like this (I don't make house calls ;O) ) but if you can find someone who knows what's what, try to get their help. Make a list before you go. You know what you want. This way you can at least usually dodge duds. If the guy has the thing you want but he's trying to get you to take something else...that something else generally isn't worth as much...few collectors try to offload anything good. Beware of sweet-talk and also beware of the sharks. They have a few tactics they'll use. They'll try to confuse you with all the stuff they have. They'll try to convince you this or that is ultra-rare or ultra-valuable...don't get stuck with the newest print run of Live at Buff Hall when you could've gotten NNB. Also, a new favirote trick is to have one of their friends come up in disguise and comment on the trade. Don't listen to passerbys. Who cares what they think? Before you go, if at all possible, at least find out about the print runs and distinguishing marks. For example, telling the difference between some originals and some bootlegs is near-impossible. If you have no consience, it doesn't matter...if you can't tell the difference you'll find someone else out there who can't either, and you'll get your money back, but if you want the original, make absolutely sure you know what it looks like. Use your head. It helps. Also, if all you really want is the music, this is another no-brainer, it doesn't matter what the hell print run you get. Yeah, people are insane for paying $500 for a Misfits record first printing when they could get the new version for $5, or pay $60 and get that record plus 100 other songs, but that's collecting, isn't it? And remember, there is no definitive price on punk records in record collecting. There isn't a "Scum 'Zine" that comes with a price guide and info on every rare record out there (it would be nice, but it doesn't exist...yet, but don't expect it...there's a reason most record collectors are called scum)...somebody might ask you $75 for a Baloneyheads record (I wouldn't pay much more than that if I were you [I paid $10 two years ago before it made Bloodstains!]) but I just saw one yesterday for $230...prices go all over the place. There is generally a decent price for this records...supply and demand. Cough/cool / She is worth so much because there are hundreds of thousands of Misfits fans and at least a few thousand want this record, of which 500 were printed and probably at least 100 have been seriously marred by time, going up to a possible 300, who knows? Nobody really. And price doesn't dictate how good the music is most of the time. Hugh Beaumont EP, first printing, can go for up to $350. The music's subpar. If you want to hear what all this old crap sounds like before you buy/trade, look up collections on labels like Grand Theft, Captain Oi!, and EV, or check out the Back To Front, Killed By Death (not the new ones as much...they're getting bad!) or the Bloodstains comps...they have plenty of great songs by some great bands. You can go your whole life listening to great music never paying more than $15...it's just us crazy completists and our insatiable curiousity and Cringe envy that keeps us going. If you wanna trade with me...thousands of old rare records, blah blah, KBD, UK, Finland, Japan, European, Australian, US, South American, and Canadian, hardcore, punk and even a little new wave (I'm sorry, it snuck in there through early trades) stuff from 1975 to 1997...send me your want list, I'll send you mine, I haven't got a full list up now. Or if you got any questions, e-mail me, I'll try to help you out. Also, I'm looking for any tapes/vinyl of the NEW Misfits...I only saw them twice and have one tape...I need more stuff, and that new album when it hits the streets.

I've been listening to the Misfits= for roughly two years, and after first hearing their music it didn't take= me long to formulate an opinion on them - quite frankly, they're one of the= best bands I've ever had the pleasure of listening to. I've been reading= through past issues of the Bible and there was some talk of what it would= be like if the Misfits were to record all their songs over again, but with= better production. Well, to me, that would be a dream come true. (Sounds= corny, but hey, 'tis true...). I have a couple o' things I'd like to get= out in the open, though...=20 First, I don't know how many Bible subscribers skateboard, but you should= find this interesting anyway. I was just wondering if anyone else has seen= the skateboards with Misfits designs on the decks? There's a skateboard= company called Scarecrow that specializes in putting horror graphics on= their decks. They put creepy designs, lettering, etc. on their boards. = Anyhow, they've put out these decks that have Misfits designs on them. I= was leafing though a copy of Thrasher magazine awhile back and there was a= Scarecrow advertisement for their Misfits decks. In the ad, Jerry (I'm= sure it was him) was all dressed up in his stage-show garb, wearing a black= leather vest with huge spikes on the shoulders and stuff. He was holding= up a deck and it had a close-up facial shot of the Crimson Ghost with the= famous "Misfits" lettering above it. It looked cool! There's a different= design too. It's a deck with the "Die, Die My Darling" picture (the one= where the skeleton hand is holding the glass of champagne/wine and you see= the woman's half-skull face through it) on it. I thought the designs were= pretty neat. =20 Second, I have another Misfits sighting to report - another to add in the= many other sightings people have recalled seeing. This particular= sighting, however, was seen, of all places, on the Ricki Lake show! (C'mon= - we all get sucked in once in a while!). The episode I saw dealt with= relationships gone sour and there was this "punk couple", I guess you could= say, on the show. The male partner was wearing a black leather jacket and= he had a safety pin through his nose. Here's the thing: the female was= wearing a black Misfits t-shirt. It was the one with the close-up facial= shot of the Crimson Ghost, but without any lettering. (You know the one= I'm talking about!). I've heard some people refer to that t-shirt as the= "old" one, though I don't know if it is. The last thing I'd like to say (phew!) is actually a question. I was= talking to a fellow Fiend and were discussing the Misfits' "Collection= albums" - you know, Collection I and II. I have Collection I. I asked my= Fiend Friend about Collection II and he told me that it is HEAPS better= than Collection I. He said Collection II contains "their best songs" and= stuff. My question is: is that true? Does Collection II really put= Collection I to shame?

I just saw him play last night and he did a great show! He's still the same old Danzig, he's just got new songs. I just wish i was the guy who got Glenn's neclace when he threw it out (i did grabb it but it flew outta my hand, dammit) by the way i think musicians should smile more, it would let us know that they're no robots, and they're actually having fun. jbat ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 05 Feb 1997 22:35:26 -0500 From: "Thomas H.

Anyway, does anybody know (which everyone probably does, but anyway) that in Vampira, the Misfits refer to "Graverobbers from Outer Space" which was changed by Ed Wood to Plan 9 from Outer Space before it was released. But I've never seen Plan 9 listed anywhere as an influence on the song only the label. Also, since the 'Fits commisioned Basil Gogos for the Maxsxmas shirt, does anyone know if they're planning to release the Max's album in the future? BTW, I like how Tammy ends all her posts.

D.EVIL ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 6 Feb 1997 00:25:45 -0500 From: Scott Perry Sorry Mark, but I have to agree with Steve Gorny on the idea of boots. They do have some value. If they will never be collectible thats one thing, but things like records and cds only have value because people place value on them. It is only because someone will pay $500 for a misfits 7" that they can cost that much. Ask my Dad how much he would pay for any of the original misfits vinyls. I can bet you that it would be about $0 simply because my dad places no value on them. (He might remember that I like the misfits and then it would be worht about a buck in case I "didn't have that one"). So any way you have to remember that things only have the value that people place on them so if I am willing to pay $20 for a boot that is how much it is worth. The idea works best when compared to baseball cards and comic books. Especially second prints of the Dark Knight Returns. For those of you who don't know anything about comic books, D.K.R. was a very popular set of four comic books about Batman in his future not that that has anything to do with the misfits. The originals were worth a lot of money after they went out of print. But then they reprinted many of them, and the second prints became worth a lot of money and for a couple of issues even the third prints were worht more than the cover price (at least the last time I checked which was a few years ago). Anyway some boots may have some value (and not just ripoff value) simply because they are of exceptional quality and rarity. I would pay about $20 for a good quality bootleg with a live version of you and Me (less than zero) on it, because I realize that I will probably never hear it live because even if Danzig does put out an entire live album that song will probably not be on it. What I'm trying to say is that the music is worth more to me than the money. That is why I am willing to pay the money for the music. So I think that boots definitely have some value even if collectors would never pay it. Sorry to everyone for taking so long and any gramatical or spelling errors I may have made. Scott ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 6 Feb 1997 00:46:34 -0500 From: Scott Perry Subject: Adendum It's me again. I have an adendum to my last post. If you don't like boots because they steal money from the band or something I agree with you. It is very unfair that the artist does not make any money from bootlegs. I own one danzig bootleg and a misfits bootleg both of which were bought when I did not know much about the record industry and didn't really care. However I would still buy a bootleg if it was particularly good. I don't think I steal money from the band directly because I would buy any official live releases they put out. Even if Danzig put out a live disk with the same track list as the one I have I would buy it. I do understand that I am stealing money from the band indirectly by supporting an industry that competes with them. So I will make this promise, for each Danzig (or related band) bootleg that I have bought (two so far) or any that I buy in the future I will either make a 15% (of the price I paid for the discs) donation to the comic book legal defense fund (which I think Danzig promotes in his comic book) or I will send Danzig a check for the same amount or give it to him when I go see him Saturday. But it is up to any of you who care. If you do care then email me and tell me which way you think the money should go. But do it quick cause the concert is tomorrow. Sorry for taking up so much time again. Scott ------------------------------ From: Christopher Wilson Subject: Yeah, Christ!

Of the ones I have heard (Mars Attacks, the Haunting, the Hunger, Blacklight) I think they are really good. Especialy the Haunting and Mars Attacks. The Hunger and Blacklight are good too, and I found that the Hunger grew on me and is now one of my favorites. Anyways, I was wondering if anyone has heard all of the new songs and would be able to post a line comparing them to the ones I have heard. I think the new album is gonna be cool. MARK, do you know if the stuff they recorded in May of last year is going to be abbandoned? Im hopping they use it as B sides or something. Also, why did they decide not to record Dr Phibes? Was it voted out? When I first heard it I thought it sounded like an Iron Maiden song but I like it. Also, I think that the new album should include a CG armband, kind of like the NAZI PUNKS FUCK OFF armband that came in the DK single. Now that would be cool Lastly, I was wondering how somone goes about making a bootleg? Do they just contact a record pressing company and give them the recordings and artwork?

First off, I am not a record exec., I do not have anything to do with the professional music industry, I don't have any inside links and no one owes me any favours (quite the opposite). Everything you are about to read is true and based entirely on luck (of which, it seems, I have a great deal) Well, I went and saw Glenn in Toronto last night. Guero666, it was good to see you there. The day started off pretty typical, me and my friends got there early to get the lay of the land. We parked in front of the Warehouse and listened to the interview with Glenn on 97.7 HTZ/FM (Christy Knight must die), he mentioned something about Canadian border guards trying to plant cocaine on his bus (?!). When we went inside, I went to the barrier of the stage. One of the security guys generously passed out about a dozen backstage passes (little did we know they were no better than toilet paper). I got one, I was happy. Electric Hellfire Club was stopped at the border so they had to cancel (blah, big deal). Powerman 5000 came out and rocked, I definitely want to hear more from these guys. They threw out stickers and I think they said something about free shirts but customs seized them at the border, oh well. Danzig kicked ass, Tommy Victor is a rock star and is the dumbest person I have ever met, I was amused to see his picks are Danzig picks with the sig. Tommy Prong (did someone forget to tell him he's not in that band anymore?). The show was great, much better than Hamilton (but Tommy still sucked). Lazie has gotten much better, Joey's great, and Glenn, well, Glenn is Glenn. After the show, I waited with my pass to go backstage and waited... and waited... and waited (do YOU see a trend?), until finally security said Glenn wasn't seeing anybody (a blatant lie, but I'll get to that soon). I tried reasoning, cajoling, bargaining, defending my point, questioning authority and arguing, my friends (who did not have a pass, incidentally) were shouting at the guards demanding I be let in (what pals, *sniff*). I eventually relented and went outside. I went around checking doors to see if any were open, sure enough, one was. After a moments hesitation and some nudging from my pals I was in, no one with came with me... the fools. After a few wrong turns I was in Glenn's dreesing room and no one said anything. I was in! It seems quite a few people were there to see Glenn and from what I could gather they were all tramps or freinds with security (which appears to be why security didn't let more people in, heaven forfend their friends be a little crowded). Glenn came in and took the time to talk with everyone...EVERYONE. To all those who say Glenn is a jerk, maybe, but just to you. I showed him my white vinyl "Three Hits" (the one I got for $50 Cdn.) good news, it's real. He happily signed it, my pass, and a b&w photo from a magazine article that Mark gave me (thanks Mark!), I gave him a copy of my friends' band's CD. He graciously accepted it and said he hoped he liked it. Did I mention the free beer? I got pretty buzzed, and all on Glenn's tab. He eventually left to go outside and sign stuff for everyone waiting out there (he took the time to speak with everyone out there, too). Before I polished off my last beer and left, Lazie came in. No one, NO ONE, even looked at him, so I hopped up ambled over and said hi. "I remember you," he said. The shock was like a punch in the face. "From the last time we were here." Amazing, he remembered talking to me at the Ozzfest in Hamilton some 5 months before. We shot the shit for a few minutes and then he went to talk with some other people. I decided to go outside and hook up with my pals. We talked to Glenn a bit more and then it was off for home. All in all, a good night. So what's the moral of this story, kids? Question Authority... and take risks, they might just pay off. Sorry this was so long, but hopefully it will bring hope back into the lives of those who do like Glenn and would like to know that he really is a great guy.

Normally I wouldn't go off on someone for this, but since you are correcting someone INCORRECTLY, I feel that I have an obligation to put you in your place . Night of the Ghouls is part 2 of BRIDE OF THE MONSTER. Don't believe me? Well, NotG has Lobo in it, who was in Bride of the Monster. Also, the story takes place in the house of Dr. Eric Varnoff (sp?) who was played by Bela. Same house, same swamp, same monster. However, Plan 9 does fit into Bride of the Monster and Night of the Ghouls. Kelton, who is played by Paul Marco, is the same cop throughout all of the three movies. "Why do I get all the spook details? Monsters, flying saucers..." Technically Night of the Ghouls is the sequal to Bride of the Monster (not Plan 9), but the stories are all inter-related.

Just to let you know, when I first called him he was about to get into the tub. I just can't pitcure Glenn taking a tubby with a little rubber duck. enjoy jamie Glenn Danzig Interview: 1/31/97 JB- For starters how is the tour getting along? Is the band getting tighter? GD- Well I like it. (laughs) The more we play the better we get. And the new material sounds better live. JB- How long is this tour going to be out? GD- Right now weâre expecting to do the US dates then head off to Europe and maybe the east this time. We didnât go that was on the 4 tour so we should be there this time. Europe is always good in the summer. Then we might be coming back to the states to do some more dates at the end of the summer and maybe fall. JB- Whats the next video going to be? GD- Serpentia. JB- Why with your voice being a strength did you use all the effects? GD- Actually I used some on the last record. And Iâm looking to use more. It just adds something else to the music. But I donât think that the effects that are supposed to be in the live show are working. Actually Iâm not sure. JB- What do the fans think of the "new" sound of Danzig? GD- Actually its not new. I did some of the same stuff before with cantspeak. Iâd say 30-40% of people are shocked at the new stuff. But thats ok. I like it. JB- What led to the line-up change? GD- Well John was contracted through Danzig 4. And after he left I found out from Joey that Prong had been dropped and he was talking to Tommy who was really pumped to play. So Joey set it all up and Tommy has been great. JB- To change gears, how is Verotik going? GD- Its cool. We have a Satanika animated pilot thatâs going to be shown in LA. And Miramax is talking about making a feature of Albino Spider Of Dijet. JB- And how much real acting did you do in Prophecy 2? GD- (laughs) what do you mean by "real"? I acted, but it was more fighting. I filmed it during the Ozzfest tour and did most of my stunts. I actually fought Russell Wong at the end. JB- So did you get your ass kicked? GD- (laughs again) actually I get killed. But itâs cool anyway. JB- What about future acting roles? Any more feedback on playing Logan? GD- Well as far as that goes I was contacted by a studio about playing Logan then it just kind of died. Anyway, Marvel is going bankrupt. Who knows if it will ever get made. JB- Tell me about the "new" Evilive label. GD- Well I intend to use it to release some old Samhain and the Death Dealer soundtrack will be on it. JB- When is that coming out? GD- Well things have been busy but that and the Samhain Boxset that Iâve been talking about forever should be out by summer. I hope. And Miramax is also looking into making Death Dealer in to a movie. JB- I know you know, so what do you think about the Misfits touring? GD- Man I knew this would come up today. I think itâs sad that the best they could do is bring back 1 original member. I mean it would be cool if it was the true misfits but itâs not. It just cheapens the whole thing. And the thing that pisses me off is that the releases suck. Collection Two sucked and I had nothing to do with it. They never listened to me, I had a really cool piece of cover art that looked like the old Misfits stuff that would have been great and I gave it to them then they released with that fucked up green. They didnât even release all the material that they had. There are more songs that are sitting on tape that they didnât put out. JB- Why not? GD- Because they think that they can give a little over a long time or some shit like that. It screws the fans who want to hear it. JB- So I assume that you guys wonât be doing lunch anytime soon? GD- We arenât doing shit. JB- Onto another subject, have you been playing anything new in concert? GD- Nothing new right now, but Tommy did play on the Ep that weâre going to release during the summer. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 06 Feb 1997 07:31:40 -0800 From: Daniel King Subject: Re: Misfits Bible #292 >From: MePhiSto78@aol.com >Date: Wed, 5 Feb 1997 02:10:12 -0500 (EST) >Subject: Glenn on the radio > >I am curious to know if anyone has a copy of Glenn's two hour appearance on >the LoveLine radio show, where he previewed 2 songs, 7th house and sacrafice. >i dont want to brag but i have it on tape, sooo......... >2 quick plugz: ANIMOSITY AND FM RADIO ASSAULT ARE FVKIN HERE: KEEP YOUR >CHILDREN LOCKED INDOORS !!!!! >i luv ya AA > > fiendishly > Jordan I have it on tape too... i thought it was funny how glenn knows all these "weird chicks" who masturbate and like porn.

Sigh.... Members of the Misfits Bible: For nearly two and a half years, I have been a part of the Misfits Bible. It has seen good times and bad. I have recently been slammed by a couple of people for NO reason whatsoever. There have been false claims made....for example a one jhotcock sucker punched me, obviously not being true.... With these flames, I have decided that the best way to deal with them is perhaps to leave. I am obviously not appreciated by some of you (some, not all) and for this I don't want to cause you any distress in having to move your finger slightly to the right to hit "Page Down" a couple of times, if even that, to get through my posts. I figure it's better to rely on the web page itself as opposed to having to deal with people like the flamers. I have attempted to post as many things as value as I could think of, including reviews and criticisms of the bands, and of course making the usual comments....and I hope that at least some of you feel I have succeeded in making intelligent contributions. Obviously, I am not leaving because of a few imbeciles who have personally attacked me. They are not the sole reason of my leaving. There are instead many many factors that have lead me to make this decision. I'd like to thank the people who made the bible great....several of whom have left.....Bobby, EVB, D-Rod, AZ, EvilDieff, CG, Denmom, Tammy S, and of course to everyone else who made an effort of post something of value. There are so many more, however these are the only ones that come to mind right now. And of course the main man of the list Mark Kennedy, hail to him. My departure from the Bible does not mean I'm quitting everything. I'll still be around, so if you're ever interested, drop a line. Take care!

The warehouse was not completely sold out but there was enough people not there to make it really good. Like others have said the new line up is pretty good but they are no John, Eerie or Chuck. I really like the new stuff and to me at least it sounded really good live plus the overall sound was good, maybe a it lacking in the vocals. oh yeah, one more thing from the review from Phily, I guess it was AZ that said that Tommy smiled too much. Not here, he looked like a crazed maniac, but however he did put in the odd grin. This is my first time writing to the bible so be gentle on my flaws Thanx PK ------------------------------ From: sixsins@globalserve.net Date: Fri, 7 Feb 1997 00:41:03 -0500 Subject: They're no Danzig. Hello everyone, it's been a long while since I last posted, but I really have to say this. I saw Danzig and Powerman 5000 in Toronto on the fifth, and it was wierd. Powerman was really tight and heavy and groove oriented, i thought they were pretty good. It's Danzig I have a problem with. I mean, his voice has never sounded better, Glenn was in great shape. Joey is okay, but nothing special...at least I can deal with him. Same goes for Lazie on less of a scale. He really looks out of place however he plays the stuff well, and i like his sound. TOMMY VICTOR IS A FUCKING WEENIE!!!!! I say "weenie" because it's the only word I can think of that suits him. He's up there, ruining the guitar parts by putting solos in everywhere he can squeeze a few extra notes in, and if he's not doing that then he's ruining the main riffs of the songs by playing the entire thing using pinch harmonics making every riff sound screechy and gutless. He wasn't even playing some of the songs properly, for example the Her Black Wings intro is an actual pattern of different notes, we all can hum. Picture the way is is supposed to sound, now imagine how it would sound if you just stayed playing the first note over and over instead of going down to the lower notes. ( this is for guitarists or whoever understands: the riff on the low E string is this: 2 2 0 1 2 2 0 1 , but dumbass just played this: 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2) What a loser. Plus he was always trying to steal the spotlight from Glenn, acting like we were all there to see him. Ya right. As far as I'm concerned Danzig is dead and gone. It's really great to see glenn still playing because he still sounds amazing, but the band is no longer a unit...it's more like Glenn Danzig and the NoName losers. On the whole, i Glenn rocked, his band sucked, and powerman is cool. Oh, by the way, Electric Hellfire Club didn't make it across the border, and Canadian customs tried to plant cocaine on Danzig's tour bus. This is official cause it came straight from his mouth. And Glenn is still an amazing person, he took time to talk to every single person who wanted to say anything to him. He signed autographs all day, and then again after the show for people with passes, then everyone outside. Absolutely everyone had the chance to speak with him, and he was totally friendly to every one of them. ------------------------------ From: MePhiSto78@aol.com Date: Fri, 7 Feb 1997 02:56:52 -0500 (EST) Subject: THX 1138..... Ok, to prove my truth, because i wouldnt lie over the misfits bible... " I, JJ, do solemly swear to tell the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.....i swear on ALL my MISFITS and SAMHAIN stuff." ok, i know no one cares BUT i thought i would put an end to some of the questions that fiends have about THX 1138, if youve never seen it before e mail me and ill try my best to re-describe it. So i went downstairs to watch the simpsons like i usually do, and i turn on the TV and flip down about 5 channels and i hear the word ...Lucas... So i change it back and it says "up next: the george lucas classic: THX 1138" so i was trying to figure out if they were serious or if i was dreaming or something... so its comes on and the first thing i said was.... the sound SUCKS. i guess because its old or something but it may have been supposed to sound like shit, or maybe it was the channels copy, who knows, but it is only 15 frigin minutes !!! i was expecting a full lenght movie !! soooo.. its about this guy running down halls w/ 1138 on his forehead, and all these guys with other #'s on their heads pushing buttons and watching moniters, etc, the guy escapes through some elevator and is outside running into the sunset....roll credits: its over. thats it. if you are reading this you now know all about the movie THX 1138. this ISNT me posting another stupid 138 sighting like others have done before, i was just informing all of the fiends out there who havent seen this movie, on what it was about. so stop thinking the misfits are in connection with all of G lucas's other movies, its just a plug for thx 1138, so stop waisting space to tell us about star wars and american grafitti, etc, because i figured this stuff out before i heard the song we r 138 and knew that he was just showing stuff for thx.....ok....now that ive proved my point, SORRY FOR WAISTING SPACE !!! but im not the first person to post stupid things on the MB, now am i ??? and what the hell is up with all the guys with wrestlers names ? i am a new member to the MB so i would appreciate it if someone could explain tome, whats going on with that. thanx for the space.

Well i'm glad to see that some of you guys like the Misfits 101 stuff. the whole music collecting, trading and selling thing has been an important part of my life for a long time now. i just hate to see people get ripped on the stuff. its so easy to get the records you want without having the money that people say its worth. which i am guessing that i lost out on that Who Killed Marilyn i just saw on the bible. ( i wrote you and you did not respond to my offer and or did someone give you the amount you asked?) though i don't take it hard anymore. i find records from the oddest of places. zycki - damn you really made a killing. that United Blood is worth at least $80 -100. i got one helping out a friend, it cost him to pay me for my Agent Orange - Bloodstains 7" plus $40 or 50 in cash. and the Cro-mags - Age of Quarrel is at least $35+. which is funny cause a friend saw it in Bleeker Bob's for that. and i know what they sell Misfits stuff for. I got a lot of my stuff from Maryland, Cough/Cool from CA, Beware from Rhode Island, Earth AD multi color vinyl from New Orleans, several pieces from Tennessee. as i said before you just have to look. i only got a few pieces locally. Florida at least south florida does not have a great deal of Misfits items floating around. Brett - i hate to tell you but your a bit off on your Danzig Videos, the guy who posted said "he's out in a cabinin the Louisiana Bayou with chicks" Killer Wolf is shot in front of a cabin, I'm the One is mostly shot in a graveyard with shots of just Glenn and John and a swaying female. you might want to watch the video tape again. Plus, aren't you taking it a bit far, so what if he drank coffee or not or if somewhere you heard GLENN DANZIG DOES NOT DRINK COFFEE. this is just too much, he's not some Deity, he's as human as all of us. shit he was sick when he did the show in south florida, that seemed as human as human can be. shit probably half or 3/4 of the bible members drink coffee and get sick. Misfits 101... its out of print and you will never find it... well this was a funny one at least to me. I was talking to someone about Samhain CD's and since this person knew they were out of print he figured he would never find them. Wrong! Even with the CDs they turn up in the weirdest places and the oddest times. I was ordering a promo CD for Danzig, this was a couple years ago, and i was asked if i would be intersted in a CD that has been sitting on their wall for years. what could this be. well i was offered for $8 a sealed promo of Mother from 1988. sure i'll take it. i was not looking for that, but its been sitting for a long time. just like in some other record store there is a Misfits 7" just sitting on the wall and no one even knows. we all collect what is out of print. the CDs are just part of it. i can't say i have had luck with the used CD places though maybe in other states you might just find a copy of Initium sitting there waiting. i have to say i am more into the vinyl thing, though i am not one to pass up a promo cd. i still have not seen the promo for Coming Down, but you never know. I think EVB is still looking for that one too. I do agree on the convention going. Record conventions are like a true version of WONDERLAND. you find so much great stuff at those things. plus you can be a bargainer there with no problem. i know people who bring records with them to make trade or go the half cash/trade. i've seen people with portable turntables to hear the quality of what they are buying. the first one you go to, bring a list of what you are looking for, and the detailing list. go in and focas, going table to table, or your head will spin seeing all the tables with all the records. ask for the Misfits records, most dealers do know what they brought with them. you see a record, you hear the price, now bargain. don't stand there like a big puttz and pay what they ask. they are waiting for you to bargain(New Yorkers do it all the time. the scary thing is they think you can do it anywhere). oh, one thing bring a bag with you to carry all the records you buy. most dealers forget to bring bags. oh and if you see some rare item, and its cheap don't go nuts. you play it as if you are playing poker. keep calm and a straight face. go crazy when you get home, but not infront of a dealer. on the other hand if you see a rare piece and you think someone might have it cheaper at another table, once you leave that record its lost for good. i've done that to make up my mind and lost the records in just a few minutes. well till next time, keep looking. hope everyone has a great weekend and see ya on Monday.

It is very unfair that the artist does not make any money > from bootlegs. I own one danzig bootleg and a misfits bootleg both of which > were bought when I did not know much about the record industry and didn't > really care. Here are some reasons I hate bootlegs: 1) Anyone can make a bootleg. I can make one, you can make one... what's the point of collecting them? It's a waste of money and time. 2) The information on bootlegs is most often total bullshit. I think everyone has encountered this. 3) They're a ripoff - to you, to the band, etc. Somebody's getting money they don't deserve, and somebody's not getting the money that they deserve for recording or performing in the first place. I don't care for the legalities or the 'rise against the corporate bastards' bullshit. Somebody's getting ripped off (including you), and that's all there is to it. 4) Lots of new collectors are fooled into paying big bucks for 'fake' items. When I first got into the Misfits, I grabbed all the bootleg 7" singles, just like most of us do... I spent a lot of money on that trash. 5) Besides the shitty sound quality, the misleading information, and the liars who put together the information on the sleeves, I also hate bootlegs because they're so hard to keep track of... there are over 100 different Misfits bootlegs alone. Save your money. Use some of your blank tapes and record whatever your friend has. Contact christoter@aol.com and get copies of all that stuff from him. There are plenty of tapes out there with stuff that destroys what's on the bootleg records and CDs, and often the quality is better (although plenty of times, it's worse). Think about it - anything on a bootleg was originally on somebody's tape somewhere. Chris Ternes (christoter@aol.com again) has a copy of every demo, interview, or live track that has been circulated among collectors and he makes it all available for $5 per 90 minutes. Is this a rip off? Consider the fact that Chris buys the tape, records it with his tape deck (wear&tear), packages the tape, and pays the postage to send it back. He probably often throws in a postcard or something (I just sent him about 60 of them). Chris has been doing this for about 6 months. The idea was suggested by Jerry Only a long time ago, and I didn't feel that I had the time to do it. Chris, on the other hand, has always made his collection available to others, and offered to do so again. Keep in mind that the tape you get is also a bootleg, at least a bootleg recording, as opposed to a bootleg album. Its value is or should be $0. > From: "BIG DADDY COOL" > Subject: Re: Misfits Bible #292 > > heard. I think the new album is gonna be cool.

For all of you kids in PA and the surrounding region, come on up to Penn State next weekend because on February 15, I'll be doing a FREE show in the HUB ballroom. The bands playing will be the Trans Megetti (from NJ on Art Monk Construction), Jesuit (VA Beach metal-core), Piebald (emo from Mass.), Puritan (State College screamycore), and probably Four Hundred Years (from Richmond). It's FREE, it's FREE, it's FREE. If you need more info or directions, call me. (814)861-8240. Also, I just put out the first release on my label, the Magic Bullet Record Co. It's a CD by the band Boy Sets Fire from Newark, De. This is a split label release between me and Rosepetal. The band plays political-as-fuck hardcore/emocore and the packaging is incredible (20 page booklet and CD inside of a matchbook cover...). If you want one, they're only $5.00 ppd from me.

Few bands have been so fervently collected, and so prolifically bootlegged. The Misfits became an underground legend, the mystique compounded by their early demise. Well in advance of the pop-wave of the 90s, the Misfits were producing their own brand of schlock-pop punk rock - blending biting guitar, pounding bass, tom-heavy drums, and howling vocals into a cavalcade of catchy riffs, tribal beats, and sing-along verses. With their monster-movie motif, spooky lyrics, and sheer mass (the Misfits - gasp - worked out), they had trouble finding their place in a scene intolerant of "rock-star" imagery and still swimming in the monotony of buzz-saw guitars and screaming political diatribes. The Misfits did their own thing, and the world would have to take it or leave it. "This street we walk upon this corner full of piss and fear This street won't bear it long It slants, it tilts, it's brought outside Alive" -- "Cough/Cool" By the time the Misfits formed in 1977, New York City had already put a number of theatrical rock acts on the musical map: the New York Dolls, Iggy Pop, Kiss. The young three-piece from neighboring Lodi, New Jersey got busy and in just a few months put out the jazzy "Cough/Cool" seven inch, where silky vocals and electric piano betrayed the (much) more emphatic guitar and screaming vocal style they'd introduce with their second EP, Bullet (1978). Released on their own Plan 9 label, this record established what was to become the definitive Misfits sound and format. For the next four years the Misfits would be available exclusively in the seven inch format. "I walk down city streets On an unsuspecting human world Inhuman in your midst ... This world Is mine to own" -- "I Turned Into A Martian" The band would also go through a number of lineup changes with singer Glenn Danzig and bassist Jerry Only surviving a cast of guitarists and drummers before settling down with Jerry's brother Doyle on guitar and a fellow named Googy on drums. In 1982 the band ventured West, bringing with them recordings for a new album - their debut LP, Walk Among Us. With a record sleeve crammed with lyrics and photos, the world finally had proof that these guys were serious about this stuff. Their menacing looks, however, coupled with sometimes tongue-in-cheek lyrics and their musical assault, obscured their true intent. The Misfits were about having a good time, but those ofus scarred for life by Kiss' descent into disco couldn't see past the makeup and costumes. The Misfits endured hardcore's heyday as punk rock's monster squad, a band whose cult following - a pseudo-secret coven known as the Fiend Club - inspired them to write, record, and tour. The Fiends were privy to an exclusive catalog of EPs and merchandise now very much sought after, and the band reciprocated their devotion with blistering performances that weren't always tight, but were always inclusive and interactive. Chorus-friendly lyrics and a singer who spent more time in the front row than on stage made for one hell of a good time, if not a clean performance. But that's what the records were for, any true Fiend would tell you. "Oh, boom when you feel like you're going too slow I bet you're gonna like it in A.D., A.D. People gonna talk about A.D., A.D. Living hell is not so bad" -- "Earth A.D." With 1983's Earth A.D., the Misfits took one step further out on the long twisted limb upon which they were perched. Googy was replaced by Black Flag drummer Robo, and even Fiends were baffled by what was to become the seminal speed-metal album. It was a new, blatantly noisy direction for the band, completely devoid of the catchy melodies that were the guts of their otherwise explosive music. Compared to Walk Among Us, Earth A.D. was demonic. Even the lyrics spoke more directly to topics like possession, cannibalism, murder, and - of course - death. It was no longer about fun and games. Earth A.D. was the Misfits' last record to be released before they broke up on Halloween. Of course a slew of albums, CDs, and now the complete box-set collection have come out since, but without live performances - the participation - these releases are just relics of a legend come and gone. We all know what became of Glenn Danzig. He went on to become a full-fledged heavy-metal icon, and currently holds title to all original Misfits music. Since the breakup, the other members seemed to have either fallen off the face of the Earth of relegated themselves to a quiet life in the New Jersey countryside. Actually they've been in court, fighting Glenn for the right to use the Misfits name. Ten years and several thousand dollars later, they've reached a settlement - Glenn owns all the music publishing rights, and Jerry Only gets the name and the logo. "A lot of people told me, 'Hey, there's a lot of money in music publishing,' and all this kind of stuff," says Jerry. "And I said to them, 'Look, there're two things in this world: there's the guy who can go out and play the music, and then there's the guy who gets the check in the mail for the music.' When Guns 'N' Roses or Metallica play my stuff and I don't like the way they did it, I don't want no fuckin' money for that." The band now earns its keep via performing live and selling merchandise. While they develop material for a new album, the Misfits are restricted from recording or videotaping any of the music now owned by Glenn - effectively being locked out of their past. Undaunted, Jerry focuses on what's ahead of the band, rather than dwelling on its sometimes brutal legacy. "We are forced to go forward," he says. "We cannot step back into the past." With the path now open and their mission clear, Jerry and Doyle can finally don their guitars and makeup once again, Dr. Chud can sit behind the towering drum kit where so many have sat before him, and 21-year-old Michale Graves can stand on hallowed ground - center stage - where Glenn Danzig once stood and delivered the verses he wrote. For the time being, the Misfits' performances are dominated by the songs of yore, Glenn's lyrics, and much of Glenn's music. But some new and promising material is making its way onto the band's set list, and Jerry says the creative process can continue: "When we used to write with Glenn, we would work on something together so everybody would have their input. Without knowing who the singer or who the drummer was, me and Doyle could have sat there and wrote the next ten fuckin' Misfits albums. But without everybody's input, it really doesn't feel like your stuff." The Misfits' live show is still a visual feast of amplifiers, skulls, leather, face paint, devilocks, and muscle. The music is as fast and loud as ever, and 37-year-old Jerry and 32-year-old Doyle race around the stage nonstop, pausing between songs just long enough for Jerry to count off one-two-three-four! "The one thing we got is that we're hungry for it," says Jerry. "If you look at a lot of people who have gone through the scene with us, they're no longer hungry for it - a lot of them are just going through the motions." If the Misfits are just "going through the motions," then the motions would have to include not just the very animated live show, but everything that goes into it. Jerry and Doyle build almost all of their own equipment: their guitars, amps, and drums. Their family's Vernon, New Jersey tool-and-die shop is the Misfits' sound lab, where they play with concepts and design their instruments with unique materials and properties. The guitars are made from graphite, Doyle's amplifiers are completely built from scratch, and Jerry's SVT bass cabinets have been totally modified. The drums are another work of art. "We have a 32-inch bass drum," says Jerry. "We have Robo's original 28 mounted inside of a 32, then we got the big spikes that go around the front with the name on it. Then the two floor toms - each one is two 22-inch bass drums strapped together. So, our drums are theoretically twice as big as anybody else's, since each drum is a double drum. We use bass drums for floor toms." Despite the wasted time and lots friendships, Jerry doesn't regret the fact that he and Glenn couldn't settle their differences and keep it together all this time: "What happened had to happen, I wouldn't go back in time and keep this band together, I would have broken it up. Whether it would have been down as long as it was is quite another story, but at the same time, Michale walked into the place, and he was nineteen. So if we would have come up with someone sooner, Michale obviously wouldn't have been our singer. We would've had somebody else, and maybe we were meant to wait for Mike." Consensus among fans is that the new guy is pulling it off. He sings well, puts out for the entire set, and his youth adds a vitality to the band that many older groups don't have. He's not Glenn Danzig, but maybe that's just as well. Jerry seems sincere in his belief that with Michale and Chud, the Misfits are finally complete. "Everybody's got their potential," he says, "and if we all live up to our potential, we're gonna be better than we are now, which is better than we were. We'll hit that level of greatness that I know we can hit. And it's not how many records we sell, and it's not how many gigs we play, or how many songs we play in a set. If we hit our potential, we'll be the best band of all time. And that's my goal. So, you know, we're hungry. I think that's the most important thing. I think that most of the bands are really great until they make it, and then they get ruined because all of a sudden it's not about music anymore, it's always about fuckin' money. And that's the problem. I hope we never get like that. I really hope." The twisted dream lives on.

I was reading through a past issue of the Bible (#124) and noticed a lot of discussion going on about Rage Against The Machine and the Misfits. Someone said something along the lines of "RATM has nothing to do with the Misfits!". I'm not a RATM fan, and I realize a lot of Fiends don't want to hear more talk of RATM, but I think this is funny. I was looking through a magazine and I saw a group photograph of RATM. Ordinarily I would've kept on reading, paying absolutely no mind to the picture of the band - but something caught my eye. In this particular pic, THE DRUMMER OF RAGE WAS WEARING A MISFITS LEGACY OF BRUTALITY T-SHIRT!!! (This might even count as another Misfits sighting!). Anyway, I thought that was funny (ironically), seeing that after reading all the bickering that went on about RATM and the Misfits. Maybe RATM are fans of the Misfits too? Who knows...

Will pay. Also looking for the full video of "Sacrifice" and "I Don't Mind the Pain" Second -- Danzig was on MuchMusic's "FAX" show for a bout 5 minutes today (2/8/97). There were short clips of the video-single for "Sacrifice", a short i/v where Glenn talks about his new style and the reasons for it, and a brief live clip of "Sacrifice" from the 2/5/97 Toronto show. Speaking of which: DANZIG 2/5/97 WAREHOUSE, TORONTO A few have already posted reviews, so I'll keep this *relatively* short: The venue was relatively small, but I think I like the size -- just right so that you could get right up there without trying to get right up there. - Sat on one of the leather couches during Powerman's set, so I didn't see much of them, and was happily surprised to learn that I wouldn't have to wait longer for Danzig to come on, because Electric Hellfire Club wasn't there. They are selling the t-shirts with the cover of Danzig 5, the ones with the Emund drawing as Glenn as the skull, the one of the first album cover, and two new ones: one has a silver picture of the Danzig skull, but it is drawn differently, and to me it looked sort of like the Motorhead skull. The other new shirt has Glenn from the cover of the SACRIFICE remix single, and this has the 1997 tour dates on the back. The set-list (read from L-R): MOTHER SACRIFICE UNTIL YOU CALL ON THE DARK 7TH HOUSE BLACKACIDEVIL HER BLACK WINGS DEEP IT'S COMING DOWN DIRTY BLACK SUMMER HINT OF HER BLOOD LEFT HAND BLACK BRINGER OF DEATH TWIST OF CAIN LONG WAY BACK FROM HELL encore: SHE RIDES HAND OF DOOM: VERSION One of my friends got me the set-list afterwards, which is virtualy identical to the above, except it did not list SHE RIDES in the place it was played, but did list it at the very bottom, beneath BRAND NEW GOD, HEART OF THE DEVIL, and SNAKES OF CHRIST, none of which were played, unfortunately. I really wanted to hear BRAND NEW GOD and HEART OF THE DEVIL since they are two of my favourite songs. Also, beside HER BLACK WINGS it said "intro-up" (see below), and almost all of the songs were crossed through with a thin black marker, with "yes" or "no" beside them -- which is odd because the yesses and nos don't match the songs they did and didn't play... The sound was good, although when they did 7TH HOUSE it didn't sound NEARLY as good as when I saw them in Detroit on Halloween -- at this (Toronto) show there was too much bass or something, although, for me, nothing can beat the energy of that song. Maybe it's because State THeatre is bigger and has better acoustics, but in a couple of the newer songs, the added pre-recorded stuff got in the way. For example, in HINT OF HER BLOOD, the "industrial" track they played over the PA system interfered with the rest of the music. Glenn's voice was easy to hear over the band, but when the PA stuff was added, it often became too loud -- which kinda sucked in the case of that song, because it is slower and he doesn't really scream the words, making it even harder to hear. That song would have been the highlight of the show for me if it had been played at State Theatre. At this show, SACRIFICE was probably the best -- or maybe DEEP. The only one that totally failed was HAND OF DOOM, which somehow got all screwed up. You could see the band looking at each other confusedly, because their timing was off or something. Other than those few glitches, the show was great. I don't see what problem so may people have with Tommy, I think he is all right, although I don't like how he plays HER BLACK WINGS -- slower in the middle part -- but no big deal. Several people on the Bible and on the Danzig newsgroup have mentioned how there is a little pre-recorded part at the beginning when they do that live now, but it's not really much...just a little beat that I hardly even noticed. The only thing is that you think it's a different song for a second until the instruments come in. My ride had to rush to work at 2am, so I couldn't wait around to meet the band again. Maybe next time... Finally, on a less-interesting note, Tammy - no, actually I don't think I was "off" regarding the videos; a significant part of "I'm the One" was shot on the Lousiana bayou (according to Glenn; and note that there are scenes with an alligator and a small river or lake or whatever), and there are a few scenes in some sort of "cabin." And, if that goof who flamed me was talking about "Killer Wolf" then he was wrong, because there is only ONE girl in that video, whereas there are two different ones (both black) in "I'm the One." So take that. Oh yeah, about the Glenn-drinking-coffee: AGAIN you have taken my comments too seriously Tammy. I was joking, just like the other person who said that "the band lied!" if Glenn has non-black clothing. -brett ------------------------------ From: parksr@brunswickmicro.nb.ca Subject: Dream band and shit Date: Sun, 9 Feb 1997 17:33:59 -0400 Ok here's my dream band : Vocals: Steve Ignorant (from Crass) 1st guitar: East Bay Ray (from dk) 2nd guitar: Me bass: Cliff Burton (reanimated corpse) drums:filthy rich bastard (from Aus Rotten) Ok i have a glenn rumor i want confirmed, a skinhead guy i know was preaching to me (although i'm a anachro-punk) and he knows i like danzig and the misfits, and he said he read in resistance records that glenn said if a race war he would side with the whites.

I got there about halfway through the first opening act, Cold Sore or something. They weren't bad but they weren't anything special either. I guess if I were paying more attention to them I would have been more impressed. Then the Electric Hellfire Club came on. Very . . . . . original. They were like a one man band with the singer being the only one who really made the band. They had a guitarist but he didn't really seem to do too much. The drummer had a drum kit and hit it once every other minute or so. And they had Yet Another Depressed Asshole With A Synthesizer in the back. The lack of talent was impressed upon me further by the fact that when my friend and I were talking about them after the show he said with a straight face that the "Dancing girl was important, too." But despite all of my negativity here, I thought they put on a pretty good show. It was pretty funny at the very least. Satanic pop music. Where is tipper gore when you need her. Then Danzig came on. He opened with mother and pretty much followed with what everyone else has been posting. The one thing that surprised me was the intensity of the crowds reaction to left hand black. They went crazy. I really like that song but I didn't know it was that popular. More so than any other song, the crowd went ballistic on that one. After the show I stuck around to get some stuff signed but then some guy told me that Danzig was only seeing people back stage. Not having read my Misfits bible from friday yet (I got it at 3:45 p.m. and I had to leave at 4) I didn't try anything daring like sneaking in. so my friend and I went to Denny's to wash our hands and get something to eat. Then we came back and I saw one of the roadies and asked if Danzig was going to be signing anything and he told me that Danzig was already asleep. So I guess he wasn't seeing anyone without a backstage pass. But that's okay. I saw a great concert. I encourage anyone who has the opportunity to see this show to go. It kicked ass. I really like the new stuff (always have) and it sounds even better live. Since I did not see him in person I was not able to give him the money I owe him for the bootlegs and since I have not received any input from you people in bibleland I haven't been able to decide where to send the money. So email me if you care it's ssp113@psu.edu Scott the Bastard ------------------------------ From: Misfitmole@aol.com Date: Sun, 9 Feb 1997 23:54:26 (EST) Subject: NJ Misfits show in 2 weeks! I don't know how many of you know about this, but the Misfits are playing a show Feb. 28th at the Castle in Hamburg, NJ. I'm the drummer in Squiggy, and we're opening the show (along with Sardonica and the Slags-a great Jersey punk band). Details are sketchy, but I do know that it's a 21+ show, and I do believe it's the only 'Fits show scheduled in the US for a long time. Like I said, my knowledge on the show is limited, but for more info. call Sunrise Lighting (their putting the show on) at 201-764-1060, the castle at 201-827-1617, or our Hotline at 201-827-7720.. Cheers, Joel (Squiggy) ------------------------------ From: sickboy@netcom.ca Date: Mon, 10 Feb 1997 00:09:37 (EST) Subject: Glenn in the newspaper Here's an article I got from a Toronto newspaper about Glenn (the day of the show)I'm just gonna type up some of the interesting stuff: Last time around,when Danzig played the Concert Hall,the New Jersey band supplied the concert promoters with a contrcat rider that prompted giggles.To wit: "Please provide the following...Ten girls between 18-24.Must have a general knowledge of politics,religion and sports and not live more than a $5 cab ride from the venue." For their gig tonight at the Warehouse,there's no mention of females.But along with the usual staples(Guinness,whisky,Gummi Bears,Snapple),there's a rider that has to do with Danzig's coy nods to Satanism(a gimmick he plied long before ghoul-come-lately Marilyn Manson). In capital letters the contract stipulates:"ALL GARLIC AND RELIGIOUS ARTIFACTS TO BE REMOVED FROM THE FACILITY PRIOR TO ARTIST'S ARRIVAL." That's all that's interesting in the article.After that it just goes on to talk about Glenn being on Disney owned Hollywood records and shit,nothing new. As for the concert in Toronto it was amazing...besides it being too short(1 hour,10 minutes)and Tommy butchering songs.He butchered a lot of songs,especially Until You call on the Dark.He also had that stupid grin on his face most of the night.Me and my friends hung out after the show and met Glenn.One of my friends (who's a guy) jokingly asked Glenn for a hug,Glenn pulled his fist back as if he was going to hit him but of course he was just joking.All in all it was a good night. sickboy ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 10 Feb 1997 01:19:34 From: Kaye Elde <"kelde@mail.sisna.com"@sisna.com> Subject: dream band and stuff This is my dream band Jerry Only: Bass Doyle: Rhythm Guitar Glen Benton: Vocals Pete Sandoval: Drums Chuck Schuldiner: Lead Guitar I think that band would blow everyone away, Anyone who has Misfits pix for sale email me, and I leave saying the Misfits kick ass, and everybody else is a poopie head >From An Idiot Teenager From Mars ------------------------------ Date: 10 Feb 1997 09:22:15 +0500 From: Cotter Tim MSM GRPP US Subject: Jeff Herrin I got my item from Jeff Herrin. Apparently, he had an unexpected move. I would assume everyone should be getting there stuff soon. Still a bit disappointed though. He sent a 2nd press WAU with a reissue inner sleeve(screws up my ability to trade with it). Anyway, at least he sent it. I doubt he's trying to rip anyone off. For those you selling items-make sure you know what your selling and be to sure send items as soon a payment is made. I have bought, sold and traded(I wish I still had everything I had ten years ago) many Misfits items over the last 18 years and doing this will avoid any confusion. Also, CONDITION relates directly to the value of particular items. Just because you have rare piece it doesn't always mean it worth a lot if its beat up. However, value is subjective. If someone is only missing one item from completing a collection they will probably pay whatever for any condition, an then upgrade later.

John Christ was no Yngwie wanna-be!!! His licks (along with Von and Biscuits) defined the Danzig sound, maybe thats why Tommy Victor tries to copy them (and pretty well I must admit) in the live show. They had new and decent material to play on each of the other four albums, much more decent material IMHO, but thats not the point. Christ, Von and Biscuit were the sound of Danzig, the old Danzig that I loved. Glenn may have written all the songs but those guys made it happed. I'm not saying the new guys are less talented or whatever, I'm just saying I preferred the old line up and I dont like industrial, period. Shaun Young said about his nightmare band -> >vocals: rod stuart >1st guitar: bruce springsteen >2nd guitar: bobby steele >bass: ben matlock >keyboards: elton john >drums: jessy from "full house" Who in hell is Ben Matlock??? If you mean Glen Matlock from the Sex Pistols, you dont know squat about bass playing. As for the drums, I think Tico Torres from Bon Jovi would fit in much nicer.. Chris Schwarz said " I've been reading through past issues of the Bible >and there was some talk of what it would be like if the Misfits were to >record all their songs over again, but with better production. Well, to >me, that would be a dream come true. I think it would suck. Part of the beauty of the old recordings is that they sound so under-produced and raw. If you think this would sound good, just go listen to "Still Cyco After All These Years" that Suicidal Tendencies did. They rerecorded their entire first album, which was a classic piece of punk rock, and produced it all nice and metal, and it sounds like dogshit. and finally, several people said "Canadian customs tried to plant cocaine >on Danzig's tour bus.

Subject: Damn, aren't we getting a little carried away... Hello fiends... first off, I'm a day early but it sounds a hell of a lot better than being a day late. ***A BIG HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE ONE PERSON WHO HAS BUSTED HIS ASS FOR US RUNNING THE MISFITS BIBLE AND MISFITS CENTRAL... HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARK!!!*** Tarry is correct about the Violent World lp. I have not got mine yet, but a friend of mine just bought one here in Miami. so we seem to be a little early. Chris - as for the skateboards, the original Misfits and Samhain skateboards were designed in 1987. the ad was in an issue of Thrasher (mark has the original date on Misfits Central). Last year Jerry was able to get a couple of cases from Glenn's mother. sold them for $15 a piece, funny since they were $42 and $43 back when they first came out. right now only person i know who has them is John Grimm. i was lucky just to get one of the extra blank decks from the case. the new ones are not bad, Jerry showed me one at the show here in Miami Beach last summer, and i'm sure the rest of the bible members saw them at the mechandise table at the shows. other wise i have never seen one up for sale in my years of collecting Misfits and Samhain records and memorabilia. D.EVIL - is right about the magazine shits, here we have this pathetic guy who writes for the Miami Herald, he reviewed Danzig before the show and was all wrong. yeah we got the same thing Samhain was a band from LA, no mention of the Misfits and he didn't even get the record titles right. though this was the same ass who said that Anthrax was coming down and the Misfits were opening. its a waste to read this shit cause they don't know music. i watch these guys cut down all bands and never give a good review of anything. still makes me wonder how someone gets hired to write music reviews and does not know shit. Chris Wilson - you mean like your pathetic attempt with that t-shirt shit and th gnome crap, right? Misfits 101... the bootleg thing... i hate to point this out, but more than half the Misftis bootlegs sound like crap. i have several i would not even waste my time putting on my collectors list since they are not worth the mention. and not cause the have originals. i know its hard getting originals and i hope that with the Misfits 101 stuff someone learned something that might help them get an original and start there collection. I gave up bootlegs for a reason and it was more then i wanted originals. First off, they are costly and they really have no value. I know that a lot of people are disagreeing with me and Mark, but the fact is they are fakes and some were made specifically to trick fiends like yourselves. I have one of thoes, and i was tricked and still would have not known if it was not for Glenn. Sound wise they are poor substitutions for the real thing. and you guys who are just starting to collect are way ahead of where i was when i first started. there was no boxset, if you were lucky you found the original LPs,the Die Die, and Evilive 12". otherwise everything came from out of state, at least for me. Second, the money that you don't put towards the bootlegs do add up to pay for originals. i know that some of the boots go for $10 - 40 with no problem. and some are the same recording. the Xmas 81 in Hittsville lp is on a cd now and is called something else. Hatebreaders lp might have a cool sticker on an all black sleeve, but it sounds like shit. Third, and this was sick when i found out. These things are pouring out by the tons. the last time i got a boot was in December of 1990, and i was reading an article a friend sent me, it pointed out that 30 new bootlegs for the Misfits alone were released that month. that is when i said no more. i know its hard to get out of you heads that you can't get original Misfits records for under $50. though it can happen. my collection is the proof of it. its all a matter of effort and time. and i'll tell you right now, i am searching again for more Misfits stuff, and the e-mail thing makes it a little easy, but i know i have quite a few letters to send snail mail. and the number of snail mail i have sent out would blow your minds, just to get originals. oh, one bit about the someone with the i have not gotten my records and i'm going to kill you bit. this happend once, and the guy was Chuck Cleaver who has and had a great rep. it turned out that the wonderful postal system had never left me the messages in my mail box for me not being there to receive the package. finally i got this "this is your last notice" paper and went down to the post office and got the package. that was on my white vinyl Die Die. shit happens, though with Dr. Strange, he was screwing me over and i threatened him. i said only a couple words that made sense to him. got my money back, though he never got the famous copy of Who Killed Marilyn. that will stay in my possession. i would hate to see that ass use it on someone else. well till next time, and more shit on collecting... Later to all the fiendies!?!

There are aspects to this that I wasn't even aware of. Like when they used a picture of me and Joey on WAU - we should've gotten paid. I didn't realize that our faces are considered 'trademarks' or such. I'm optimistic as to how things will turn out. I'm still collecting articles/interviews.

So you worship Satan. >Good for you. Who gives a shit? Aw, man... I just wanna be cool like the other people on the Bible! Satan seems to be the important topic of discussion here, and I wanna be part of the gang. Like, does Danzig worship Satan? What about that thing in his contract about keeping religious artifacts and garlic out of the venue? That out to be good for another round of debate on Satan. Is Slayer a Satanic band? I mean, the Nazi stuff I'm cool with, but if you look real close I think there might be some Satanic references going on in their logos and stuff. Is Marilyn Manson Satanic? Does s/he go to the same church as Glenn Danzig? When Glenn Danzig goes to the Satanic Church does he always have to be altar boy, or is there a Satan-worshipper shorter than him? And I'd really like to see this debate about Glenn Danzig drinking coffee resolved... because if Glenn drinks black coffee, I think that proves the connection between Danzig and Norwegian Black Metal, which we all know is the very fount of True Satanic Power. You think it's bullshit, but I was watching an episode of Saved By The Bell and one of the kids on there was drinking a cup of coffee -- with no cream. And he took 138 sips from the cup. You can call it coincidence, but I don't think so. > Your not evil, your pathetic, and I bet Satan laughs at you even harder > than I do.

D.EVIL ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 10 Feb 1997 20:37:19 -0800 From: Grandpa Atomic Subject: More Record Crap Thank you to Mark and Tammy for the compliments, I much appreciate it. I know why record collectors are called scum, I've been seeing it for a long time...I'm just trying to help, in any way I can! I suppose that's by sharing rare stupid info with people. But first, comments on regular mail... My dream band? I'd probably have four vocalists, six guitarists...I trimmed it down. VOCALS: Sakevi (Gism) Bobby Soxx GUITARS: Greg Ginn (Black Flag) Reverend Horton Heat BASS: Jerry Only (Misfits) DRUMS: William Hooker if I wanted a punk or hardcore drummer, there's eight zillion, so I just picked that arty William Hooker...but he is the best drummer I've ever heard, so... These guys seem like they'd make quite a unit. There's been bazillions of great musicians over the years...I just picked some names off the top of my head. To the guy talking about GG Allin vs. Marilyn Manson...did you ever meet GG? Did you watch him sing songs called "Eat My Fuck" with huge nazi symbols across his bald head? Ever see him getting people to puke in a bowl and sucking the whole thing down? Ever see GG beating the crap out of the smallest weakest girls he could find? See him attacking random folks tooth and claw? The answer to that is: I have. GG Allin was an asshole, in every sense of the word. Maybe it would be forgivable (except the Nazi part) if his music didn't suck so much...he's so fucked up, perfect example of the hicks in waiting we have out in the world. Him and the A.G.'s...old school nuts. He basically took Iggy's old routines, made them violent and stupid, and played bad music. Fucking putz. Marilyn Manson's a dork, yeah, and his music sucks too, and he's so fake...my friend went to catholic school with him, he's really arrogant now, and can't believe people who don't like him. But GG is the worser of two evils. But even GG's not as bad as Skrewdriver. I may be a collector, but I don't collect GG or Skrewdriver, for various reasons. There's not a handbook telling me I have to. But since they're both dead...at least the air is slightly cleared, if you want to know about real world problems read Profane Existence, there I'm done. About Violent World...lets put all crappy bands on a comp, let them ruin some Misfits songs, and sell it! Over-saturation is so great! This thing is garbage. Earth Crisis...let's get some pro-life vegetable fascist vegan reich violence monger backstabbers who don't back up their threats with standing ground who believe all meat-eaters should be put in a closet, in the dark, with no-lights watching animal slaughter videos whilst Zyklon-B is filtered through the vents...Earth Crisis' politics are so Aryan fucked, it's ridiculous. White pride pales in comparison to Earth Crisis' "superior body" mindset, and they seem to hate sellouts unless they themselves do it, and they're on the Victory label which puts out the 90's Skrewdriver One Life Crew's record...but I digress. I think you don't want to hear it. Their song sucks, but all the other bands suck too, this comp is trash. And fuck racism! Fuck fascism! Fuck the hardline! Let me live my life, I let you live yours. Words, not fists. But I'm not accusinog any of the other bands of being racists, or even jerks, I'm just saying I don't care for their music. A funny quote from Shane White about tribute albums..."It's like having a dildo or a real cock. I'll take the REAL COCK!!!" Dead on, in his own special way I guess. And maybe Jerry is a money-scrub, and maybe Glenn is an arrogant bastard who sold out and makes bootlegs, and maybe Doyle is a lousy guitarist, and maybe they had a revolving door of troublesome drummers but the point is they made some of the best music ever so stop harping on their traits, listen to the fucking music and keep quiet! Nobody's perfect, except maybe you in your eyes. I love the Misfits records...that's what matters. The box set is aces by the way...don't waste money on anything else, you non-collectors, just get the box set. As for the new Misfits, at least Jerry is doing something, and moving on. They're still great. They are not as good as the old Misfits...maybe no band is or was, but in terms of all time punk bands the new Misfits make at least the top 100, which is saying a lot, cuz there were hundreds of thousands of punk and hardcore bands throughout the years. We'll see how the new album stacks up...it's make or break, in my opinion. If it's bad...I still have all the old records to listen to, why wouldn't I listen to those instead? Jerry and the band have to take this into consideration, definitely. They already have, I'm sure of it. Now, some more record assistance. I got a few questions via e-mail, some trade offers, send more I'm happy to help out if I can. My real name is Matt, if Grandpa sounds stupid...I'm 26, I'm the oldest guy in the room at some hardcore shows these days, thus the nickname. This is a mini-FAQ on record collecting. Q: Why are these records worth so much? A: The basics are supply and demand, and time must be taken into consideration. Let's take a sample band. In 1978, the Legionaires Disease Band record their classic "Rather See You Dead b/w Downtown" EP on Disease Unlimited out of Texas. 500 copies. 7". Right away, each member of the band probably grabs ten copies for themselves, family and friends. This leaves about 450. It seems, with all these bands, that a bunch always get ruined. If nearly all are ruined (ala Gears, Hugh Beaumont Expierience) the record seems to be worth a LOT more these days. So now we have 400. At least 50 of these were bought by people long gone from punk. The records are put in a box, it goes into their middle class attic, and is forgotten about for many many years, probably forever. Once in a while, some punk finds some old scenester who has all this stuff and buys it all off them...that's called wicked luck. I did it once, got some decent stuff. Now we have 350. Fifty original scenesters have it, they know it's worth a lot these days but want to keep it to remember the old days. Now we got 300. Now there's damage over time. This is the real killer. Anywhere from 10-200 records can be damaged this way. People don't keep 'em in shape, they're trashed. Let's say 100 are gone there. 200 left. There's probably at least 800-900 hardcore scum record collectors in the world who know ALL about this stuff. Foreign folks pay more cash. Around 250 records from the original are scattered around. The hardcore people fight for them. They go up. Now stuff like KBD comes out. The band gets publicity to an ever wider audience. Goodbye! Things rocket up into the hundreds very easily. The smaller the print run, the more cash. Q: Where's a good place for a sampler of rare early punk? A: So you heard some old stuff, but you haven't got a chance in hell of getting the originals. But you want to hear more...you don't need to hear every song, just a sampling. Alright, cool. There are a few places you can look. First of all, there are a few series' that are putting stuff out. There is Killed By Death, the big one. Killed By Death has the following volume #'s...1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8.5, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 16, 26 and 77. 11 and 16 are garbage. 5-7 and 13 are rare, came out in the 80s. 1-4 came out a long time ago (the 80's) in Europe, in an edition of 500. They were regarded as the best punk comps ever. Luckily they've been officially reprinted. Get all four, they're some of the best stuff. Distros like Vacuum (the best and most reliable place with the best prices, they're great!), Sound Idea, Busy Kids...etc, have them. 8.5, 9, 10 and 12 are being put out by some folks now. I know who's doing them, but I can't tell you. They're pretty great, fairly widely available. 11 and 16, as I said, are horrible. Remember, these are bootlegs. Anyone can slap them together. Some people go for quality, some go for the quick buck. You can't really do these officially, because you would need the okay of all the original bands for copyright reasons...good luck finding them! So, thus, bootlegs. Okay. 26 is kinda hard/easy...you don't need real connections to get it, but Sam Goody won't have it. It's all Canadian stuff, it's alright. Finally, 77. Just came out, 300 copies...AWESOME stuff. I'm trying to find one myself for under $30 (I may have to pay the $30!) It's hard to find, okay? Another good series is Bloodstains. Unlike KBD, Bloodstains focusses on a scene. There are six...three by an unknown American hero (I know who did KBD #1-4 and 8.5-10 and 12 but I don't know who did the Bloodstains, but whoever he is, he's cool 'nuff!) Texas, California and Midwest, and three by a German, UK, Europe and Finland. The American ones are good. They only have 2-3 duds on each, out of about ave=18, which is quite good. In comparison, KBD #8.5-10, 12, have about 2-3 duds each, #5-7, #13 and #26 have about 5-8 duds, and #1-4 have no duds (they're THAT good). All of these have plenty of classics too. The European ones are not only really hard to find (the Bloodstains and KBDs are available at the three reliable distros I listed above...their web pages: http://www.interlog.com/~tedwong/vacuum.html http://www.urbekah.com/busykids http://www.ezbizware.com/soundidea ...I know all three of the head honchos, they're all great guys, reliable, and well-priced, support 'em! I will stake my honor they'll send you your stuff, none of them have ever ripped me off in dozens of orders) but they're not as good. They're done differently...instead of the best song off each band's EP (at least in the bootlegger's eye) they put the whole one on, and some bands only had one-two really great songs for the ages, and some had none. Finland, known for it's early 80's hardcore, has horrible punk 77-79 on their comp...the UK and Europe ones are a bit better. You won't find these anyway though, so don't worry. Other comps come out time to time with old punk on them...some are good, some aren't...I know about most of them, e-mail me for comments or if you want tapes. Get the KBDs/Bloodstains you'll do alright. As for who are these bands? Scum heaven. You ain't heard most of them...you'll like a lot of them, if this turns out to be your sound. Remember, this stuff is from 77-82...hardcore took over 83 or so, so this stuff may be raw punk but it's not thrash. Also, even if you love, say the Eat, they got new wave later, and their later stuff is pretty bad. If you love the tracks and say you wanna go get their EP...don't. It's way too expensive and the stuff isn't that good...stick with the tracks on the LP. The Misfits are probably about 100,000x bigger than the bands on these comps...but not nescessarily much better...some of these bands are AWESOME. Q: How do I know I'm being ripped off? I like ________'s music, but how do I know what stuff to get? Blah blah blah... A: Finding out about this stuff is pretty DIY. There isn't, say, a book out there with a price list, tons of info, quality guides on the boots (except Mark + Tammy's great look at the Misfits...only a true fanatic can do that much! ;O) ) so you'll need to do your homework, ask around, find stuff out. Don't let yourself be ripped. There are some people on the 'Net who know about the stuff...e-mail us, some of us are nice and will help people who are nice and interested in the stuff. If you just go and buy something, there is a 75% chance you are getting ripped-off, big-time. At least. All bands have albums worse than their other stuff. All bands can have crappy bootlegs. Nothing is guaranteed, and in the record buisness, pretty much nothing is guaranteed. I can't stress enough, if you don't make sure to know what you're doing, you will get burned. I got some e-mails about this, refer to my last post. IT IS INSANITY. Q: What about reissues? What's up with them? A: It seems every punk band from back in the day left a huge shoebox of tapes under some girlfriend's bed. The guys who sang these songs and their friends on the instruments are 99% of the time LONG GONE from the scene...few bands stick around this long, and if they do, they usually only have one original member or so left. But sometimes the tapes get unearthed, and people get happy. Then someone grabs a band's original EP and tosses a bunch of new stuff on it. In general, I am skeptical of this stuff. Sure, the Authorities had one of the best punk EPs ever, but putting ten unreleased tracks with that EP onto a record...questionable. Nobody's really heard the other stuff. There's a reason it was on all those old tapes! Gawd! I would be skeptical of these. There are labels out there completely reissuing just original EPs, and some are good (EV) and some are evil conmen (Lost and Found). And there's always bootlegs. Reissues are great, they save you a lot of cash. As for discographies...of a great band, these are a godsend (for an example, the Misfits box set is one of the best put together and most representive box sets I've ever seen). "Here you go, $900 worth of records on a $10 disc!" Er, thanks. Sure, sometimes these are corrupt, and a lot of the time have crap info on the bands, sometimes even getting the songtitles wrong, but point is, the music's there. If they have all sorts of information and they're even official, even better! Q: What about live tapes, and tape-traders? A: Tapes are cheap. Even if they suck, you have something you can tape over. My opinion is why the hell not? Old, unreleased stuff from obscure shows, or big bands like the Sex Pistols live tapes can be great stuff to listen to in the car, and it's nice and cheap. Sometimes you hear new songs. The sound quality isn't always great, but it's live, and I've always gotten slack for liking live sound where most people would prefer studio. Whatever. I actually really like Evilive...gee, don't sue. So just give it a try. Don't expect really classic songs no one's heard of ("Hey, I thought it would be an unreleased Sex Pistols album!") but expect fun stuff to buzz through a few times and tape over. Some collectors will make you mixes of all sorts of stuff...consider yourself lucky, some of that stuff is really great too. Just request! If you get ripped off on one tape, it really doesn't matter. So someone stole your tape. Whatever. I don't take extreme precautions on tapes, I just get a # if I can...again, whatever. Tapes really are a no-lose situation, unless they cost much cash, and they probably never do. You can get like tons of dollars of music on one tape at a great price. Okay, that's enough for now. E-mail me on whatever, I love mail. See ya guys later. Keep punkin' around, and watch out in those Misfits pits! I'll trade too...I'll send you my want list, some of the stuff on it is worth $5, some of it $250...who knows. Send your want lists to me too, my record collection boggles the mind.

I asked him how much stuff he would sign and he said he'd sign everything that wasnt a bootleg. So, I've got all my cd sleeves and as he's signing them he gets to my Earth A.D. sleeve that happens to be signed by the current members of the Fits. He realizes who has signed it, turns it over and says, "I'm gonna sign this one on the back cause 'those guys' signed it on the front.......those christian assholes.....I HATE THEM." Needless to say, I ignore that, and then he says he cant sign a poster I have cause it's a boot. I tell him that I've rarely seen any Danzig posters that arent and he says there are plenty, but there's probably more boots than real ones. So I say, "same with the Misfits posters." Glenn says, "thats because those guys, Jerry and them, make half of that shit themselves." I say, "you think so?" and he says, "I KNOW SO!" Overall, he was pretty cool, but he definately had a hang up with Jerry, and when I gave him a copy of the Devilock demo, he chuckled and said he'd give it a listen. Glenn's still a nice guy but Jerry kicks his ass in the hospitality dept. Just my 2 cents. Later, The Noss Devilock P.S. - For those of you who don't like Tommy Victor and don't play guitar, those harmonics he's playing without a wammy bar aren't the easiest thing to do.

As a collector of a bands music, I do what I can to get all the recordings of a band I can. Way before Collection II came out, I desperatly wanted copies of the tunes "attitude", "we are 138" and "last caress". a bootleg 7" of Beware was my only choice for $10, I had the songs I wanted to hear, and I didnt have to shell out several hundred $s for the real thing. In either case, Glenn isnt going to get money for it because I'd be buying a used record that has no "royalty" value in it. 2) Live recordings. Unfortunalty, alot of us dont get the ability to tape our favorite bands live. Even more unfortunatly, the bands we like never put out live albums (except for those god damn grateful dead). The only way we can get these is from bootleggers (or Chris) or other people who trade in these tapes. I think the internet has helped this situation out alot, because now we have access to trading newsgroups and mail digests that were really unavailable outside of say MRR or Goldmine. I belong to a digest that is exclusive for DAT tapers of live music and the amount of trading that goes on there is staggering. I think what the Misfits did made the most sense regarding bootlegs. They said "make all this stuff available on tape for a moderate fee that anyone can get". Why pay $25 for a bootleg CD that will sound just as bad as $5 cassette, especially of those old shows from 80s. This way, no one is getting ripped off, everyone gets to hear what they want to, and everybody is happy. My buddy and I plan to tape the misfits every chance we get this year on DAT. And now that we learned how to use the damn thing right (sorry for that real bad Oldbridge tape!) we will be supplying Chris with plenty of material. Just check out my tape of Social Distorion and D-Generation from the Stone Pony, it sounds great!. sorry for ramblin AZ ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 11 Feb 1997 11:07:59 -0330 (NST) From: "Neil T.

Date: Tue, 11 Feb 1997 18:50:29 -0500 And I thought Danzig 5 was bad....Violent World is terrible. The only cool thing about it is that it is Caroline 138 (for all of you that get hard over 138 sightings). If are fortunate enough NOT to have this record yet, here's my review for you: 1. Snapcase- She Horrible 2. Pennywise- Astro Zombies Very cool, Pennywise does an awesome job on this song. They even do a better job covering Circle Jerks "I Don't Care/Live Fast, Die Young" on the Boarded Generation CD. 3. Shades Apart- 20 Eyes Starts cool with Glenn's Evilive intro..after that it blows 4. Tanner- TV Casualty Sucks bad 5. Therapy?-Where Eagles Dare By far the worst song. They should be shot for the way they ruined this song. 6. Prong- London Dungeon Should be next in line to be shot after Therapy? 7. 108- Death Comes Ripping Killer job, they even got the feedback right. Awesome job. 8. Bouncing Souls- Mommy... Funny. They somehow pull it off. This doesn't surprise me though because they were the only band that sounded good on the Descendents Tribute album. 9. Goldfinger- Ghouls Night Out I hate Goldfinger 10. Deadguy- Horror Business Best job on CD. Mainly because how they make fun of Glenn. I loved it when I heard the beginning of London Dungeon at the end of the song like in Evilive. 11. Sick Of It All- All Hell Breaks Loose OK I suppose. For those who care, this is my favorite Misfits song. 12. NOFX- Last Caress Perfect song for them. If you like them, you will like this song. I personally think they suck. 13. Earth Crisis- Earth A.D. Fucking rad. I have loved Earth Crisis since the All Out War days and love their version of this song. They perform Earth A.D. the way Glenn would have written it if he would have written it today. 14. Farside- Return Of The Fly Sounds like a lounge performance.

I figured just as much since Jerry Only was posing with (and endorsing) the Scarecrow Misfits decks in the advertisements. How much do the Misfits sell the boards for at their shows? I have a new Misfits sighting to report (if anyone cares!). On the inlay to the cover of the Candy Snatchers' self-titled album, there's a picture of the band members.

I guess my original statement was just a little too broad in saying I'd like to see the Misfits' songs re-recorded with better production. You see, I agree completely that part of the appeal of the Misfits' sound (at least to me) is that raw, garage-y sound that contrasts so well with (and even complements) Glenn's voice. I'm not talking about a major overhaul of the Misfits' songs though, I'm talking about cleaning them up A LITTLE AND ONLY A LITTLE (some of the overdubs can be annoying at times). Like you, I would NOT want to see some over- produced, over-polished metallish piece of poop with the Misfits' name all over it.

As I have read a previous post concerning the Cleveland show, I won't go too much into that other than some general comments. They opened with Mommy...er Mother I mean...heh and the show was a good one. Except for the damn stage divers who almost broke my neck. Hopefully, we will find the SOB and sacrifice him to the gods that be... In any case, it was my first time seeing Danzig and I was impressed by his stage presence. It was a good show. After the show Glenn was very tired and seemed drained. He was the only person who came out to sign things, the rest of the band was milling around on their own. Sunday we were in Columbus and this is a show worth mentioning. I saw the Misfits at the Newport, and Glenn packed this place. The floor was insanity. There was hardly any room and much carnage. We opted for the balcony which hung right over the stage. A perfect view. They did the same set list from Cleveland's show, but it was a much better performance. Glenn and the boys were fantastic..totally on. They all played to the crowd and Glenn pointed to the balconies several times. Lazie jumped into the crowd at the end too. (He did this at both shows, but this time he said he thought he wasn't going to make it!) Blackacidevil sounds terrific live, and "Deep" is still going through my head. A note about the band. Yes, Tommy smiles, but who cares. He is a damn good guitarist. He isn't John and doesn't try to be. Lazie is great. If you get the chance to talk to this guy, do so. He's very friendly and accessible. I believe that the person who commented about the Cleveland show was surprised about Lazie wearing a Black Flag shirt. He was a roadie for BF for 5 years. I didn't talk to Joey, but Dan_zig (the other part of "we" in this post) and my pal Dalurker each got a signed drum head with the entire band's sigs. Dalurker is selling his. If anyone is interested, please email me and I will forward the message. I'd have to say that this was the best show I've seen. I'd put it in the top 5%. After Columbus Glenn wasn't as tired as he had been on Friday night. He may have been having an off day. He gave the "devil" handshake to Dan_zig and then on Sunday Dan_zig gave it back...hehe Glenn looked at him like "You nut". ------------------------------ From: Stewart Muir Gallacher <9243471g@student.gla.ac.uk> Date: Wed, 12 Feb 1997 13:27:11 +0000 Subject: bootlegs As far as bootlegs go, my advice to fans would be not to buy any bootleg CDs unless you are able to listen to them before you buy them. I have found that at record fairs most stall holders who sell a lot of bootlegs have personal CD players with them, and are happy for you to check out the CDs before you buy them. Everyone has their own opinion on whether they want bootlegs or not, but at least this way you know what you are getting. I think that a lot of the animosity towards the bootlegs from Misfits fans stems from the fact that a lot of the LPs/Cds out there are poor quality. If you collect other bands like Metallica, you find that the standard of some of the bootlegs (in terms of the packaging, sound quality, etc) is far superior, and a lot of the Misfits boots look as if they were thrown together by someone who knew very little about the band. Obviously you get rubbish bootlegs with every band, but in my opinion the Misfits releases have been particularly bad. ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Feb 1997 08:29:07 +0500 From: "John B. Kendrick" Subject: Glenn and racism Last ish someone stated that Glenn would be a racist (or potential racist) because Glenn reportedly said that he would side with white people if a race war broke out in the U.S. I do not think that such an implication is justified. If a black or hispanic person were to side with their respective races, would that make them racist? I think that most people would view that as "racial pride" or "racial solidarity". ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Feb 1997 15:40:22 +0100 (NFT) From: Richard Lundberg Subject: h. rollins aautograph Hi, does anybody out there happen to have a henry rollins autograph?

NINOSKY" Date: Wed, 12 Feb 1997 10:45:12 PST Subject: sixsins is on the money Sixsins got it right. Glenn is a powerhouse of great ideas and one hell of a performer. The down side is that he is backed by a tribe of losers. Joey Castillo would like to thank his HOMIES?!!! He must indeed fuck off. The only reason I can see Glenn assembling this band of sideshow Ed McMahons is that they get in line when told and don't need to be told twice. Glenn had a lot of projects going on (Prophecy 2, comic books, cookie products, and, oh yeah, music) and didn't want to hear any talking back, so he got himself some lackeys. I'm sure Chuck was a handful, being a heroin user makes a person difficult sometimes. Unfortunately, Biscuits is one of the best damn drummers I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. His work on Lucifuge is incredible. It is just sad that things have come to this. Glenn needs some hardcore dudes who are into the music and the theme of DANZIG, rather than being a backup band. I just don't know where he is going to find them. I hope he does. ------------------------------ From: cfarrell@idsi.net Date: Wed, 12 Feb 1997 01:48:58 -0800 Subject: Re: Misfits Bible #294 Hi fiends! Here is my quick review of the VIOLENT WORLD cd. Snapcase - She Strange. Its sounds very much like the Steps EP they released a while back. Not traditional at all. They've added a lead guitar, noise effect, which livens it up a bit. I like this cover. Pennywise - Astrozombies Traditional yet poppy. I liked this version, as its the most similar to the original track on the whole disc, but it's no Misfits. Shades Apart - 20 Eyes Much more up beat pop punk, mixed with the cool live sample of Glenn. Very melodic, lacking the raw power of the original. Tanner - TV Casualties Kind of evil sounding, with duel vocal tracks. Alot like the original, but lacks the "I love Lucy" ending we all know and love. Therapy? - Where Eagles Dare It sounds like Helmet with a lazy singer. I cool organ/keyboard sound in the background, with a solo ( I guess to add some exitement to a relatively boring cover) Prong - London Dungeon Industrialized (like Blackacidevil or something). You can tell its prong. It's pretty annoying aside from the Marilyn Manson esque chorus. It drags on forever though. I don't think the Misfits would make it as a techno band. 108 - Death Comes Ripping Very aggressive music, like the original, yet less than tolerable vocals, just like most of the tracks on this CD. I guess everyone cant be Glenn. He actually sounds drunk. Note the irony Bouncing Souls - Mommy... If Dave Vanian (The Damned) had joined the 'Fits, this is what it would sound like. Definitely not a track to remember. Goldfinger - Ghouls Night Out Not bad at all. I don't care for some of the re arrangements, but the music and vocals are fluent and tight. Its a good track aside from the Axl rose type scream at the end. Deadguy - Horror Business I saw them cover this live about a year ago. If you've heard their Cover of Black Flags "Police Story" on the Punk Rock Jukebox cd, you know their style in covering punk songs. Its pretty much the same, but its a cover of the live version, which is a real cool idea if you ask me. Sick Of It All - All Hell.... The music sounds good, but again the vocals lack any originality or heart. A track to throw out. NOFX - Last Caress The metallica version was better, lets leave it at that. Earth Crisis - Earth AD In my opinion, this is the best track on the CD. Very deathy, like all EC, and its very stompy, (like all death metal, go figure). It makes you want to kill people, just the way a Misfits song was meant to make you feel. Farside - Return of the Fly Actually quite good. Very Vegas Lounge. Reminds you of the original, yet it establishes itself as a good tune. I think it was actually comedian Jim Carey singing over a wedding band though, not actually Farside. OVERALL: This CD is for collectors only. If you are a Misfits collector or collector of the bands on this CD, its worth it. If you're just a mild fan. Don't waste your money, buy the Four Hits From Mars 7" coming out Friday on Fandango Records. Its better. I can't believe I waited a year or so to hear this CD. Too much of that Pop Punk style and not enough aggression for me. Tape it from your friend. OK, thats it: see ya.

PLEASE HELP, MY FRIENDS AND I ARE GETTING DESPERATE TO SEE HIM! GLENN DANZIG IS GOD!!! ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 12 Feb 1997 00:04:17 -0500 From: tes777@bridge.net (Tammy S.) Subject: Damn, are we getting old or what... Hello fiends... First off, Aaron, if you thought the fly being down was bad, the show here in south florida for 1995, he had big holes in his pants. though no one had the guts to say, Glenn you got some money, buy some new pants already. i really think he wears the same pants over and over again. plus i'm not the only person that noticed the holes. outside by the buses that was the topic of the night among all the fiends who were waiting for Glenn, Eerie, and John. Though Glenn never came out, probably realized he had some holes in his pants. Plus he is no 5'8". he is a couple of inches taller than me and i'm exactly 5'. only cause each time i have met him i never had to look up at him like with Eerie or Jerry. Brett, i know what the guy said, and he said cabin, where I'm the one was in front of that river, and also shot in a graveyard. no cabin. plus what he was talking about was Babes in Videos, not plural to the # of females in the video he was talking about. why do you alway take what i say to you so seriously. i was joking around with you. you can't tell me that some of that shit about detailing little things about Glenn is not funny. think about it, if he drinks coffee or not. more than half the people in this world drink coffee, it does not make him more amazing if he drinks the stuff or not. Sickboy, that article is not surprising. Glenn has an odd sense of humor from what i have heard. He was very proud of himself back in 1990 when he got the band Trouble off the tour. they were this nasty bunch, that was saying all sorts of shit about Glenn and the other members of Danzig while they were touring with them. in the Atlanta show, a close friend drove up to see them, since the threat of Danzig not coming back to Miami after Glenn pointed out how much he hated Miami Beach at the time. Well Glenn got this crazy idea to scare these assholes off, he knew they did think he was a satanist. so he got fake blood and wrote all their names backwards on their mirror in their dressing room. after that show they were no longer wanting to tour with Glenn. Plus the ten girls thing has been around for a long time. i do remember that someone wrote into Maximum Rock and Roll with the complete list off all items that were required for Danzig (all members) on tour. plus i did see some record store is selling the printed list from 1992 -1993 tours. but this includes, all the hotel info, airplane stuff, and show stuff. Misfits 101... Still knowing what to do... well as i said it is possible to get Misfits originals under $50. And it still seems to be right. I just found a red vinyl Collection 2, that VInyl Ink was selling for $40. it was still sealed and $10. plus i hate to rub salt into a open wound, but it was from a record store with a webpage. Also, once i get some info back from this one store, i will post the name of this place. they might have some LPs for those of you that would want copies of Earth AD, Legacy and Evilive on vinyl. i doubt the price would be high. Now i have seen some of you having good luck with what i've been talking about. Though it will be hard, and not cause lack of funds. A lot of places i have dealt with for years and even new places i'm contacting are giving me the same answer right now. Now Misfits records in stock, and we are looking for the same thing. Lately it seems to be a lack of Misfits vinyl out there. though there is no point in giving up. i never do, i guess that is cause i want to complete this collection as best i can. That should go for those of you who are just starting or want to start. It all started off with one auction and i had my first Misfits 7". As for Tim with that right LP wrong insert. boy do i know that one, and your right. ask all the questions you can. drive them nuts if you have to but don't get stuck like that. Samhain wise, even though i did not bitch cause i got a great deal on the record. i got an orange vinyl November Coming Fire with a copied lyrics sheet and no photos. though the DOA takes the cake, who the hell is going to take a Disco Sucks 7" off my hands that has a Prisoner sleeve. But this could have been avoided if i was told that the 7" did not have a sleeve. the funny thing was they were auctioning off the Prisoner sleeve, so if any one bid on that got screwed completely. So its up to all of you new and even seasoned collectors, getting your records is only dependent upon the amount of effort you put forth. Plus i would suggest you read Gramps last post. He does know what the hell he's talking about. Next time you might get some record store info, if this guy comes up with the records.

I've sort of been watching/reading/seldom writing to this bible and the homepage since like issue 50 or something and I'm kind of sorry that it's going to be done for in the summer... sort of like the end of an era or something. I'd just like to thank everyone here who got me even deeper into the misfits/danzig/samhain thing than any sane person would ever want to be. I'd also like to thank Mark for setting all of this stuff up and especially for making me those tapes (if you don't remember Mark, it was a long time ago - i'm Tom from Canada if that helps). So does anyone have any idea if Danzig is touring up to Vancouver canada? What about the Misfits? I missed them here last time (hey i was underage and did everything i could think of to get in but nothing worked) but it will never happen again. Also, if anyone has any cool Deftones/Black Flag/Misfits/Reagan Youth/Minor Threat (or any cool punk/harcore band) logos scanned, could you e-mail them to me, I'm gonna try and make some iron-on transfers with a bubble jet printer.

D.EVIL ------------------------------ From: Inzo Subject: Violent World, Bootlegs, and Chuck ad maybe more stuff I woke up from a weird weird dream where the singer to Maryln Manson (Maryln Manson) was trying to kill me and he took my SG and my old red one appeared.... I got the Violent World cd today. My review is short. I liked them all except the cover of SHE, London Dungeon, and I half dislike Ghouls Night Out and Earth AD SHE- you can't hear the vocals and he is screaming them London Dungeon- no comment Ghouls Night Out- those drums bug me, the sound like Googy's drums on mommy on WAU, no hihat on the snare drum. Earth AD, I was getting excited by the intro but then it went into sloth-core. I understand and apprectiate that the songs are original interpretations that is why I have the DK tribute, no direct clones on there, that is also why I like these two the best... Return OF The Fly, it is cool. I like it :) 20 Eyes- immediatly my favorite song on the album. It just made me happy, at 1:56 it goes in the final chorus and it was at that part that I felt fuzzy and warm inside, (I'm putting it on now) Listen to the part of the song I mentioned. but listen to the whole song. Bootlegs: My opinion is that if a bootleg has something on it that you want...Get it! I have about 7 Samhain boot 7 inches and theres some stuff on them I am glad to have. Like the Last Gasp 7" has them doing Bloodfeast, and it has a demo of Novembers fire and Lords of the left hand. Another Example, I know there are bootlegs with Return Of The Fly on it, Before Collection II came out, wouldn't it be a good idea to have a boot with ROTF on it so you have the song? yes. That is how I think of bootlegs. IF Chuck does Heroine then what the bloody hell is he doing with Social D? They all quit Heroine. Because of Chuck, they will all start again and die :( Where is that guy that had all those Samhain buttons? I want some!!!! I saw a new Intium and NCF at the store, if anyone needs them,,,they're expensive though, I bet 15.00 bucks, cuz it's Disc Jockey. Oh, back to bootlegs!!! HA, I ordered the Samhain bootleg Black Dream, I wanted it because it has demo tracks, live tracks, and The Original Unholy Passion mix. SEE, now, for someone who doesn't have the original UP, this would be a good thing to get. I still don't believe I paid 80 bucks for a red Unholy Passion EP. The guitar just sounds a little different cuz it's Damian not Glenn. If you want to hear the original UP and can't find or afford the ep, find the boot, and you will hear Damian's guitar, and get more Samhain stuff in one package. That's how it works for me, If it has something I want I get it, I don't collect bootlegs. besides the Samhain stuff, I have 2 other bootlegs. Who Killed Marylyn, cuz you can't get these two songs anywhere and I think the boot sounds like the original anyway, is it supposed to be kinda high pitched???? Like, there's some effect on Glenns voice???? bootleg pro's??...how's the sound on the original compare w/the boot? I also have the sup pop boot of When Death Had No Name cuz that was long before I ordered a Dirty Balck Summer cd single w/it on it from CD now. I know Star Wars came out before Bullet. And I am sending out Dengar and 4-Lom to get midevil on your buttocks, feel lucky Boba Fett is too busy :) Anyone that can get me a schematic of a Marshall JCM 900, I will love you. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 13 Feb 1997 04:51:48 (EST) From: asenath Subject: times square, violent world trib, stuff for sale/trade bobby? $4.00 for s&h have you been hanging out with the people from BMG and columbia house? id rather you charged $2 more and cut shipping by $2 $4 is a ridiculous price to charge for shipping i've seen all these mixed reviews for the violent world tribute, would anyone be willing to sell/trade/give me a copy ov it so i can check it out first? well i have one remaining crimson ghost mousepad left for sale... $8 and its yours... if a lot more people are interested i found another supply ov black mousepads and will do either more CG's or danzig skulls depending upon the demand... also i found about 10 copies i made ov the chiller theatre #3 10 page interview with jerry only with over a dozen pictures... if your interested i will mail them out to you for $1 or trade for something you have lying about that is somewhat cool, some stickers, dead animals, cool pictures etc... well if any ov the above interests you... email me... everyone who has paid for mousepads they were all sent out today friday so you will get them in 3-5 days... :.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.: : jess cyphers asenath@sunlink.net : : http://www.sunlink.net/~asenath/welcome.html : :`````````````````````````````````````:''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''': : i stopped having nightmares... : : ...when i became a monster. : : : :`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:`:':':':':':':':':':':':':':':':':':':': ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 13 Feb 1997 22:25:27 +0800 From: Strych9 Subject: Canada? I am currently residing in Malaysia,(Misfits are totally unheard of over here) so you can imagine the raised eyebrows I get when I play Bloodfeast at high volume at work. You can sorta imagine the shock value to muslims as Im cruising down the street in my Samhain INITIUM shirt, with glenn and the boys covered in blood... Anyway, as I am living here I suddenly find myself being constantly bashed in one way shape or form. I have met quite a few canadians over here, and it seems like all they enjoy doing is raggin on America. To listen to them you would think that they dont have any problems back home. I have never considered myself to be a gung ho american, until confronted with such people. You can imagine my shock to see that this same thing continues here on The Bible, one such post is the one below... Stephen Warren said >the news is like: "ok, that's what happened today in the states, now >time for your local news..." So should we americans get mad that Canada hardly ever makes the news in the states? Probablly not, besides the only interesting thing that I can remember about canadians, is that special forces team that was sent down as part of the UN peace keeping team, and got busted for torturing and killing a lot of civilians... >all us canadians do is drown in americana! i can tell you who the >presidents are but i have no idea about the prime ministers. we're the >tv generation, pal. So get pissed at your own country for showing you OUR news and not your OWN! Why is it America's fault that your boring ass country aint got shit to talk about? >i think all you americans should know that when i run out of toilet >paper, i wipe my ass with an american flag. ah, god bless america. Is that supposed to hurt? Y'know heres the funny thing. And this always gets Canadians really pissed cuz they know its true, but.... If Canada had ANYTHING worth taking, America would have taken it by now... Nuff said... One last thing... I suppose I should thank canada for one thing.

GG Allin stood behind his stage act and went to jail for it for more than overnight (anyone want to try three years?), even though offstage he was reportedly very cordial to most of whoever he met along the way. He never let anything stand in the way of wanting to make music (a very admirable act no matter how you slice it). And at least most of GG's albums (at least most of the ones in my collection) have some very good songs on them...unlike MM who's signing to Interscope is destined to be one of Trent Reznor's few mistakes in life. And that's the bottom line because The Righteous Black Duck said so! Marsicano 3:16 says somebody's gonna get their ass kicked (138 times! :)).

Their screwing up the lyrics is par for the course. That's nothing compared to their dyslexic interpetation of the verse chord sequence (They played it B-A-G-B instead of B-G-A-B) to "Forming" on the Germs tribute album. I'll reserve judgement on the rest of the album until I listen to it again, however I thought Prong's contribution sucked prong. ------------------------------ Date: 2/12/1997 1:36 From: Patrick Sayers Subject: Violent World...OF COURSE IT SUCKS!!! Hello Fiends, There is a lot of talk of this Violent World "tribute album"being quite dissapointing,are you surprised?First of all,these fucking tribute CDs have become(or maybe even started out)as a way to rip people off.This became clear to me when that horrible hardcore "tribute"to the Smiths came out last year.A lot of the bands on that release have addmitted to not actually really liking the Smiths;they just wanted to be on a compilation.Anyway,tbis is the Misfits bible,so let me relate my point to Violent World.While I do think that Snapcase is fucking cool.The decision to put bands like Pennywise,NOFX,and(Mall punk legends)Goldfinger seem to be morebout selling the CD to the masses than to pay homage to the Misfits.Anyway,instead of slagging the bands on this cd(with the exception of Goldfinger,whom I'm guessing couldn't wait for the Green Day tribute,and needed a credibility cover fast) I just want you all to consider boycotting quick cash CDs such as these.I had the intention of putting out a compilation CD of bands covering Motley Crue songs.All of the bands on it were chosen ,not with financial promise or"punk credibilty"in mind,but with the intention of putting out a CD that would be fun for people to listen to.I'm kinda having second thoughts about putting it out now,because releases like these (in general)are more about marketing than about recognition.Anyway,please consider boycotting this CD.There are enough peoplr on this bible who already own it and are dissapointed.I'm sure one of them will be kind enough to tape it for you.By not purchasing this CD you are telling Caroline Records that you will not stand for a shitty CD.Anyway,I have much more to say about this issue,but feel bad taking up so much space.If anyone would likr to discuss/debate this issue,e-mail me directly.Oh,to the guy who was looking for the Rollins autograph,I don't have one.However,I do have a Dee Snider of Twisted Sister autograph that says"Pat,I still want to ROCK"I'm sure you don't care,but whatever.

I got the video HATED, and proceeded to laugh my ass off. My friends and I used to get shit wasted on St. Ides Malt Liquor (liquid crack/wino piss/chemicals) and watch that video whenever new bros were in town visiting us. The narration and the commentary of "Unk" sets a mood that really brings out the hilarity of GG's antics. Sure, he's a worthless piece of shit and pretty obtuse, but with such songs as Expose Yourself to Kids and I Wanna Fuck Myself, jesus, you can't deny the hilarity.

Secondly, this post is long, so if you get bored easy, page down. then The Man That You Fear said -> "Hey gfk, in your last submission you said that Chuck is punk. FYI: He isn't. Unless you consider Danzig punk (they're not)." For your info, Chuck is THE greatest punk drummer of all time. Here is his resume of bands he played in: DOA Circle Jerks Black Flag Fear Subhumans Weirdos Social Distortion and of course Danzig Now I know Danzig is not punk, but I think that you look at the list of the OTHER bands he was in, you could pretty much say the except maybe the Dead Kennedys, the Ramones and the Heartbreakers, he's been in every definitive North American punk/hardcore band of the 1980s. I know alot of you kids of the 90s never heard of these bands (i hope I only being sarcastic) but for those of you who remember the hardcore scene from back then, these guys were the shit. Dan Sylvester said " Actually, minimum wage is around seven bucks an hour >in Canada, 3 bucks sounds more like the states." Yea, $7 Canadian, which is probably close to our $5.25 (or whatever) so all you gas pumpers don't start headin north yet for the big raise ... :) The Noss said "P.S. - For those of you who don't like Tommy >Victor and don't play guitar, those harmonics >he's playing without a wammy bar aren't the >easiest thing to do. I think his playing is quite >good, even though I do miss John. I agree 100% with you!. Now I see why Tommy said "whammy bars are for pusssies", even though I don't agree with Victor on that. As a guitar player, he really impressed me with his playing, though I do prefer John's sound. The only thing that I hope he realizes is that neck repairs cost a hell of alot more than getting a new spring for your whammy. There is no way I'd do that to my Gretsch or Les Paul.

The point of them is to get your hands on live and unreleased stuff. Guys that make fake versions of available albums (or out-of-press versions of music still available elsewhere) are sure as hell making shit worth $0, but bootlegs of live shows w/ good sound (DAT) or unreleased versions/ songs/ demos are not a rip-off at all! Before all of you get on my back and say, "You're ripping the band off!" think about the band's position. Their record label couldn't possibly release every live shows, even in very limited pressings. It's not good business. So, I say, heck, let the the bootlegers do it!

Maybe it's because I prooved him wrong and made a very good point about a certain shirt he made insulting Glenn and calling him a sellout. I find it so fucking funny that some little shit could put down a band he's never seen nor heard before in his WEAK little life. You've never experienced ANGELSIN before and if it was up to me you never will, but I'm sure you'll find a way to get your "Punkasfuk" sticky little fingers on some of our music. Some of you may be wondering why it took me this long to respond to this geek, I haven't been getting to my Email lately but a sweetheart named Leah let me know that this little NOTHING was talking shit. So I hopped on it. I would also like to publicly thank Tom Undermine and "The Man That You Fear" for sticking up for me and ANGELSIN music. I'd also like to thank all the people who EMailed ANGELSIN to order our musiczine and become part of the mailing list....Theres no turning back now!!!!! We know where you live!!!!!! And to the DUMASFUK, oh sorry, PUNKASFUK kid....You had no problem insulting my band...tell ya what, why dont you let me hear your band and the music that you write, and please, don't give me any Green Day sounding shit, thats if you even have a band, or do you spend half of your pathedic life on the computer, and the other half making shirts of people you hate, could you do me a favor? since you like making shirts of people you hate, why don't you print up a couple of ANGELSIN shirts. ---------------Mark, Happy (belated) Birthday SINcerley, J-SIN ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 Feb 1997 00:08:08 (EST) From: Stephen Gorny Subject: Stuff All kinds o replies in one big post: Dead Milkmen: Yes - I saw them do Astro Zombies both times that I saw them. Both times their bassist would not give me a guitar pick after the show when I asked him nicely for one for my pick collection - no that's not relavant but...who cares. The VW reviews. Those were hilarious guys. I write for a few mags and you wrote things I wish I could say. I'd love to be able to review the latest Blind Melon album by simply saying "all of these guys should be rounded up and shot". BTW - haven't picked it up yet, but y'know, I can picture ol' Blue Eyes doing a vegas lounge version of Return of the Fly (and actually Last Caress too for some wierd reason - I always get that image). Buying the old classics on vinyl. Not to slag anyone, but I would advise you to be extremely wary of buying these really rare things for several hundred bucks, sight unseen, over the net unless you know a lot of people who can vouch for the guy. Someone on here claimed to have an original Cough/Cool for sale. I am definately interested, but I would like an authority, say Tammy maybe to authenticate this thing first - e-mail me and maybe we can work something out. Cool - just looked out my window and it's snowing (being that this is Baltimore, half an inch means everything in the city'll be shut down tomorrow - those wimps) Bootlegs - i agree with whoever said it. I'll track down these things and buy em if they have some nifty goodies on them that you just can't get otherwise. I mean - if Glenn was so upset about all of this bootleg Misfits stuff out there, he should have re-released it all on his own years ago. That would have nipped it in the bud. Speaking of which - what exactly are the terms surrounding the old Fits tunes. Some have said that Glenn has all of the rights to them, that the new band cannot record them again - live or otherwise. Others have said they can, but have to pay him royalties. On the other hand, someone else who recently interviewed Glenn tated that he said that Jerry and Co. are holding out (about the box set) and that they have a lot more they could put out, but are witholding. Um....if Glenn owns the rights to all of the old Fits tunes, wouldn't he be the one holding out? Does Caroline own any of it??? I have to wonder cuz, as far as I'm aware, other than the Max's X-mas (and maybe other live recordings made by the band) I don't remember seeing anything on the box set that wasn't around in bootleg form before. Are we really missing more than a few songs. I don't know (although I want to see that Studio Z vid w/ Howie Pyro - Bobby!!!!) Nazi stuff. Remember - in the late 70's a lot of punk bands wore swastikas, not cuz they were racists or neo-nazis - but just cuz it was the ultimate way to cheeze people off. Hell - even the New York Dolls used to wear swastika armbands from time to time (or at least Johnny Thunders (RIP) did).

Subject: There is something so wrong about them... Hello fiends... first off, i need to correct something. I just heard from EVB that the band i was talking about was not Trouble, though they too had started some shit with Danzig and spreading crap about them being satanists. The band that Danzig's Road Crew pulled that prank on was Warrior Soul. Plus, from what EVB says Glenn was not involved in this prank. Though as i had pointed out to her, Glenn was telling several people that night that he had done the deed. This was told to the same friend that got to see his drivers licence. Though i guess Glenn has never changed in getting carried away in his stories. zycki- i'm glad you like Misfits 101, funny you mention the Iron Cross 7". one of the band members or a brother of one of them was selling those about 5 - 6 years back. I think they were going for $25 - 30 at the time. i passed it up since i did not know if i could turn it around quick enough. Neil, one slight flaw to your theory about Danzig, we still don't know if he drinks coffee, though i know the entire population of the bible is just dying to know if he drinks coffee, and wears blue jeans. shit, what if he watchs Saved By the Bell. then you would have to have coutches in your church, plus lots of coffee makers and mugs with little pictures of satan wearing blue jeans. Does that mean that Satan drinks coffee too, i just don't know these things since its not part of my religion. Chris(here is what you were asking about) - as for the skateboards, the original Misfits and Samhain skateboards were designed in 1987. the ad was in an issue of Thrasher (mark has the original date on Misfits Central). Last year Jerry was able to get a couple of cases from Glenn's mother. sold them for $15 a piece, funny since they were $42 and $43 back when they first came out. right now only person i know who has them is John Grimm. i was lucky just to get one of the extra blank decks from the case. the new ones are not bad, Jerry showed me one at the show here in Miami Beach last summer, and i'm sure the rest of the bible members saw them at the mechandise table at the shows. other wise i have never seen one up for sale in my years of collecting Misfits and Samhain records and memorabilia. Ok, i looked through the last of my Maximum Rock and Rolls(at least the few that did not mysteriouly disappear) and found the Rider list for Danzig back in 93. This is what was part of the Danzig contract ***suposedly*** Danzig Room Requirements: 2 bags of Nacho Doritios, 1 gallon of Green Gatorade lite, 2 cases of Miller lite beer(forty-eight boot), 1 case of Miller Genuine beer(twenty-four boot), 1 case of Classic(i'm assuming Coca Cola)(twenty-four cans), 1 case of diet pepsi(twenty-four cans), 12 bottles Snapple Iced Tea with Mint, 12 cans Country Time Lemonade, 1 Liter of George Dickel Wiskey, 3 bottles Moet-Chandon White Star Champagne, 1 quart of Welch's Grape Juice, 1 can of Planter's salted peanuts, 1 can Cashews, 1 six pack of Guiness Stout, 4 cans Chunk light Tuna in spring water, 1 loaf of whole wheat bread, 1 jar of low calorie mayonnaise, 1 tray of candy - Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, Peanuts?, Ju Ju Bees, Gummie Bears, etc., 2 boxs of Twinning Earl Grey Tea, 1 box of Bigelows Plantation Mint Tea, 1 carton of Winston Cigarettes, 1 box of Band Aid bandages(1 3/4" X 3/4"), 1 spool of medical tape, 1 one pound bad of David & Son sunflower seeds, 1 gallon of low fat milk, 1pint of Half & Half for coffee, 1 trash can with liner, 1 bottle opener, 1 sharp knife with cutting board, 50 (16 oz) cold cups, 30 (12 oz) hot/cold styro cups, Sufficient clean ice for drinks and sufficient containers for beverages with ice, 1 roll of paper towels, 1 box of Kleenex tissues, Napkins, plates, and utensils. then it goes into the famous 10 girls between the ages of... 40 pounds of ice, 3 large pizza's one cheese two pepperoni, or, 20 assorted meat sandwiches - 4 roast beef, 4 ham, 4 sub sandwiches, 4 tuna, or, 2 buckets of Kentucky Fried Chicken(white meat only). the rest is just info for what the runners are required to do. Though do remember this is for the entire band. Misfits 101... Still going on about the bootlegs. I see some people still think Mark and myself are nuts. We are not saying that you should never buy a bootleg. What we are doing is warning you new fiends who are just starting to collect. Its a waste of your money and your time. I can say only three of all the ones i have are worth listening to. The Hitsville, 81 XMAS lp. Lodi NJ You Know - live interview with Glenn on Taang Radio and a cool version of Return of the Fly, and Invaders From Mars - all studio outtakes. The rest is crap. I know i have lots that were given to me when i ran my auctions, bribes to settle for a bid sooner than the auction ended. Or crap kicked in to a trade, like by the way you want this i don't. The Danzig live at the Ritz, i swear the guy must have dropped his recorder a million times. So if you want the music and i have a feeling that is what all of you are after, than make smart purchase. They are out there and you just have to look. So many fiends have now commented on the fact that i was right all along. That there are Misfits originals under $50. I'm not saying your going to go into your local record store and find a green vinyl Earth AD stairing you in the face but at least you might find a Die Die with an insert, or a first press black vinyl Earth AD. Plus all of you have access some how to the internet. I hate to shock you but, the Collection 2 on red vinyl i just picked up for $10 was on the internet, for the Undead fans i got a Verbal Abuse for $15. Plus i have seen Danzig poster, and Danzig promos, I told you all that Vinyl Ink had all the colors for collection 2, I'm waiting for the go ahead about the vinyl lps to tell you guys were to get them, i just have to hear back from this one place to know if they were part of a collection just bought. That is another thing that is great about local record stores, they buy entire collections. That way you can buy what you want and not have to deal with a ton of shit you would not know what to do with. Or have to shell out lots of money. That was the one thing that made everyone run to Yesterday and Today down here. Each time Richard bought a collection the phone calls went out. We would all be in the store early to check out what he got. I walked away with Flag of Democracy's first 7" Love Songs(yes it is an original, this was before the bootlegs were made in Germany) for $3. The SST records i got and used as part of the deal for my white vinyl Three Hits from Hell 7" came from there. a rare blood color vinyl Die Kreuzen Lp for $4. Its amazing the number of hours i spent sitting on the floor in that record store looking through boxes of records searching for either Misfits and Samhain records or anything i knew i could use to get those records. well next time, we talk bootlegs and the research that MRR did for there article on Bootlegs. Hope everyone has a great weekend.

I have been watching the Bible site and I would like to take up some space here with my response. Since many of you have had, and will in the future, your chance to either voice praise, falsehoods or criticism with concern to the projects I have produced for Caroline I will too use this forum to state my side of the story with regards to Violent World. To start, here are a few falsehoods followed by the truth: False - Bands were picked only to sell the record (i.e. Pennywise, Goldfinger...) True - I could have approached a lot of bands based on their sales potential alone, however, that was not the case. Not that most of you will ever find out for yourselves but I am an honest, genuine individual who works hard at making decisions that will bring forth the best in every project. I chose these bands because of the fact that they are HUGE Misfits fans and they also happen to be amazing bands that have left their mark on the 90's music scene. These bands jumped at the idea of doing this record and they looked upon the opportunity as an honor. False - Caroline is looking to make cash off of your fanfare. True - This tribute came about out of the gluttony of bad tributes out there. To me there were too many tributes being created which either payed homage to bands who didn't really impact anything or had a collection of bands that not one person in this planet could listen to in one sitting (i.e. country act on track one followed by a metal group followed by a folk singer, etc.). I make no more money out of this record than anyone else and it was my idea and my idea alone. I did this because I thought the Misfits deserved a tribute, and we all agree they do. Ban this record? Give me a break! We are all individuals and we all like different things. Isn't that the beauty of being an individual? Fans of the bands on the record will discover that the Misfits songs rule! They will go out and discover the legacy of the band and that is what this is all about. False - The band's labels made them do a cover for credibility. True - This is an insult to bands who have worked for years to succeed. To insult bands like Sick Of It All, Goldfinger, etc. is just plain wrong. Sick Of It All is one of the hardest working, ass kicking, honest and down right respectable bands out there. I contacted the bands directly to get them involved and to give all the labels credit, they all worked hand in hand to make sure the band's desires to be on the record come to fruition. That is why the bands and their labels are thanked first and foremost in the record. Am I beyond criticsm? No. Is what I do perfect? No. All I ask is that I and the bands on the record are praised and criticized on relevant points and concerns. This is a tribute from bands in the 90's to the Misfits. These bands have enough of their own talent and identity that they don't need to emulate the Misfits. What fun is that anyway? The point of this record is: Interperation NOT emulation. All I ask is that everyone give the record some time. Let it sink in. I was quite shocked the first few times I heard some of these songs. But as time went on I began to look at this compilation as a fun compliment to the Misfits records that I know and love. This is not the Misfits and it is not a Misfits release but it IS the great songs we all love. When was the last time any of us picked up a various artists collection and thought every song was great? I haven't had that happen to me in years. Violent World is not what we expected? What out there is what we expect it to be? If it was, how much fun would life be? I think that that's the fun of this record; it challenges and not what we expected. I would like to thank everyone for their passion towards this record. It shows how a record like this can strike a chord, both good and bad. I just wanted to set some things straight, to stop some false statements before they become known as a "reality". I also wanted to give you my take on the situation so you know where I was coming from when I put this record together. I hope you will all give it a shot and appreciate it for what is; a homage performed BY fans FOR the fans. Thanks for your time and I'll keep Mark posted on any Misfits news coming up. tomb ------------------------------ From: "m.s.k" Subject: Re: Misfits Bible #296 Date: Fri, 14 Feb 1997 03:35:16 -0500 (EST) > From: tom > > I'd also like to thank Mark for setting all of this stuff up and especially > for making me those tapes (if you don't remember Mark, it was a long time > ago - i'm Tom from Canada if that helps).

Oh yeah, in response Franche Coma went on to play guitar for Active Ingredients and is now a father of 4 in Lodi. Mr. Jim went back to his band Continental Crawler and still lives in Lodi. Steve Zing is currently living in Lodi, and touring with his band Chyna who just released an EP. Damien is living in NJ, and is Iggy Pop's tour guitarist. Manny disappeared and then randomly showed up at a Danzig show (8/18/90). Joey Image moved to Florida. Arthur Googy drummed for Antidote and still lives in New York City. Robo worked at Proedge for about 10 years and recently returned to South America to open a pizza restaurant with his family. London May went on to play with lots of bands (Dag Nasty, Distorted Pony, and others) and is now living in Louisville. > From: Stephen Gorny > Subject: Stuff > > Speaking of which - what exactly are the terms surrounding the old Fits > tunes. Some have said that Glenn has all of the rights to them, that the > new band cannot record them again - live or otherwise. Others have said > they can, but have to pay him royalties.

Um....if Glenn owns the rights to all of > the old Fits tunes, wouldn't he be the one holding out? Does Caroline > own any of it??? Glenn owns publishing rights to all old Misfits songs. Caroline owns the recordings. The Misfits, according to their agreement with Glenn, cannot re-record old songs that he wrote, although they can perform them. In a recent interview, Glenn said that Caroline (not Jerry & Doyle) were holding out on other material, which is not the case. Caroline put everything that Glenn gave them (and he was required to give them EVERYTHING he had) onto the box set so everyone could stop complaining about unreleased tracks. Unfortunately, this also included the fake Misfits tracks that Glenn himself recorded. > I have to wonder cuz, as far as I'm aware, other than the Max's X-mas > (and maybe other live recordings made by the band) I don't remember > seeing anything on the box set that wasn't around in bootleg form > before. Are we really missing more than a few songs. I don't know > (although I want to see that Studio Z vid w/ Howie Pyro - Bobby!!!!) There was plenty of stuff on the box that had never come out. The original mixes of the 5 songs from the Horror Business session were not widely distributed, most of the Song Shop session was not out there, some of the Static Age mixes of the Static Age tracks were not out, and the last 2 songs on the session disc (remixes done by Glen) were not out on bootleg. There are several demo tracks that were not included on the box set because Caroline did not receive the masters. Either Glenn lost them, never had them, or decided to keep them. Nobody will ever know. Obviously, there is plenty of live stuff not included on the box. For those of you who don't like ANY of the tracks on the Violent World tribute album, I heard it at least tastes pretty good. mark ------------------------------ From: KWard93399@aol.com Date: Fri, 14 Feb 1997 04:18:42 -0500 (EST) Subject: A toast! errrr..post. Well, it seems it never fails. Whether it's Nazis or Satanism or just ripping on how Jews like myself are anti-Christs, there is always a hot topic here. This time it's ugly Nationalism. Seems a few of you paid a little too much attention to George Bush when he was Pez, I mean Pres. So, what happens to the MB this Summer? I don't want to even think about Usenet... It's sad to see it go. And it is actually starting to get rather readable. Lots of auctions and info lately. As far as the tribute CD, I guess I might break down and buy it sometime. At least they didn't rehash the Metallica and Guns'N'Roses covers... And NOFX kinda amuse me at times... If anyone has an Undead "It's Corruption" 45 for sale, let me know.

But I do have to say I have heard from and contacted some very cool fiends out there.There are alot of real cool fiends out there but the bitchy ones fill up 75% of the bible with this sucks crap or put downs to others.Shit they even put down Bobby Steele for christ sake.Bobby is an important part of all of our roots he is a piece of punk history that is responsible for all the stuff we are into today.It was an honor when Bobby Steele responded to my email.He is an influence to many guitar players out there today and he dosent get the credit he deserves.I dont know much about all these law- suits all these guys have with eachother all I know is the music stands up through the years.Bobby is a supercool guy I have heard many stories about him contacting fans try to get Henry Rollins or Glen Danzig to write back to you.I hope Bobby gets whatever he wants out of his lawsuits simply becuase the guy deserves it.Every member who was in the misfits deserves a piece of the pie they worked for it.How would you like it if someone took your work and took credit for it?you wouldnt. Remember the most improtant thing the Misfits,Bobbysteele,And the undead are our roots.Jerry only,Doyle,Glenn they are our roots.The survivors of the real first wave of punk are very important to us all and should be treated with respect.They worked there asses off and came up with something new that blew us all away. Support Bobby and the misfits they deserve it they havent given up on what this shit is all about and that is the music and the feeling the music brings. I think people should give up on trying to figure danzigs relgion it is really not that important.If he became a Jew or a muslim would you still buy his records?I dont know I am an idiot but it is something to think about. Oh ya NOFX is a great skate/punk band contrary to what you hear on that Violent World thing.They are truely one of the last bands with enough balls to say to their record label if you put any of our videos on MTV we will sue you.I see them as one as a very ballsy band that will possibly be a future influence for the next generation of punk. well thats enough no more I aint no whore and I aint plying nice with others.I will be a fan of the misfits and the undead forever but I will never be a fan of bullshit.so write me off the list I am bored with gossip. I aint here to be cool so this is my last submission.Thank you to all the cool fiends out there and to Bobby Steele for inspiration (my check is in the mail for times square)and being cool.Stick a fork in me I'm done.

Hey, that's your own fault. I hate television. As for not knowing the Prime Ministers? Again, it's not my fault you skipped history. Why not immerse yourself in some Canadiana? You live here, you must know we have a rich history and culture, it's just not as famous as the States'. Strych9 observed: >If Canada had ANYTHING worth taking, America would have taken it by >now...

First off, I see no comparisons between them and Green Day other than the fact that MTV and radio stations decided that they should be hot and start playing them. These guys spent a while workign their asses off on the west coast for a while before they ever rel;eased an album. They did the indie release thing and even made their own music videos - a very do-it-yourself kind of thing, not too unlike Bad Religion back in the day. Second they do a good show, which, when I see a band in a club, is just what I wanna say. They also take what they do very tongue in cheek. They're not up there looking pissed off and trying to impart serious social commentary (those are generally the laughable poseurs). So what if their songs have hooks and melodies. They're not trying to be punk (which so many people are these days) - they're just being themselves and writing stuff they like. If they have gained a high level of popularity doing that - good for them. I've seen them several times and have seen them do covers of the Fits, Motley Crue, Squeeze and several other bands. Why do they do it? Cuz its fun for them. But at least they're honest about what they do. ================================================================================ Stephen Gorny [] In Baltimore, "civil rights leaders" raised a huge Department of Psychology [] uproar over the issue of Confederate flags on UMBC [] state license plates - saying it is a symbol of 1000 Hilltop Circle [] hatred and racism.

Before I bought these two Cd's I had 136 cd's in my collection. The guy at the store rung up Green Magnet School first so that makes Violent World my 138th cd... but wait... before you run to the bathroom to start spankin over my sighting... the Green Magnet School cd was Sub Pop 138.... Ok you can go spank now. A couple of highlights on the Violent World Tribute are: The beginning of She when the secong guitar makes the beeping sound. The beginning of 20 Eyes and the way the singer of Shades Apart puts some classic New York style emotion into the vocals. The Singer of Tanner's voice (sounds like a cross between Jello Biafra and Guy Picciotto of Fugazi) How Deadguy re-enacted the Evilive version of Horror Business (complete with five guys cheering at the beginning so it sounds live) And just like everyone says the whole version of Return of the Fly (By far the best song) Everyone is complaining that the bands suck, well if you could pick one band to do one song what would it be?: I would pick L7 to do Hollywood Babylon Last thing, I like the rumour about Marilyn Manson being Kevin from Mr. Belvedere and I hope it keeps going but it's not true because I seen his Year Book photo in an issue of Details while at the Dentist.

In my opinion, Tommy's sound is way better! Ever listen to "Left Hand Black" played by John live, then played live by Tommy? John fucks the whole thing up. I think Tommy is more adaptable to play many different styles, while John is limited. I also prefer the way Tommy plays some of the songs faster. I feel that if it's a live show and the crowd is really into it, then why not go with the flow and jam out. Another thing that I like better about Tommy is that he doesn't just stand there and rock back and forth. He's more into it.

This was a man who did what he wanted, when he wanted. Of course, I wouldn't want to be in the first few rows of one of his shows, but I wish I could have seen him perform. Although I wouldn't want him to go out with my sister(or anyone else I gave a damn about), you have to respect and admire the fact that he was a truly free man. GG Allin was a criminal in the same way that nudists are: he wanted to be free. I also don't know why everyone puts down Skrewdriver. Ian Stuart stood up for what he believed in. You have to admire that. America was founded on the belief that everyone could have their own opinions. People ought to respect that instead of putting everyone down who happens to be of a minority opinion. Was David Koresh a lunatic? In my opinion, yes. But he had a right to practice his religion as he pleased, but the Feds got him because he didn't fit in to their ideal of society.

Date: Sun, 16 Feb 1997 14:56:41 -0500 -For Sale or Trade- After giving it some serious thought, I have decided to part with my Earth A.D. Wall Plaque. This one-of-a-kind wall plaque and is titled "60 Year-Old Copper" and was purchased at the 1995 Chiller Theatre Horror Convention. It was both sculpted and hand-painted by Jerry Only's middle-brother (not Doyle) and comes with a signed Certificate of Authenticity and a cool Earth A.D. Box. The wall plaque is made of a thick resin. I originally purchased it for $150. Which means I will sell it outright for $150. It is too cool to sell for less. I will however, trade for it. In fact, I would be willing to trade it even up for one of the following original Misfits records: Second Pressing Red Vinyl "Bullet" Third Pressing "Bullet" Yellow Vinyl "Horror Business" with Insert "Night Of The Living Dead" with Insert Fiend Clud Edition of "Evilive" with Insert White Vinyl "Three Hits From Hell" Clear Vinyl "Earth A.D." Green Vinyl "Earth A.D." If you have a record that is not listed there (because it is worth more than those) and you would still like to trade. I would consider trading and than paying out some additional money. Just make me an offer. Unlike Misfits records, there is only ONE of these wall plaques in existance.

Well, it's not that, it's just that we Canadians aren't as pigheaded, self indulged, egotistical or ignorant as alot of Americans (not all, there are really cool Americans, same as there are cool people in every race, nationality or religion or other socially fabricated classifications designed to divide the human race into levels of equality) but as far as I can tell, American news shows really only care about the americans. Well, sorry bub, but there are a hell of a lot more countries in the world than just the states. Quiz: How many American people can answer the following: 1) What was the name of the man who defected to south korea from north korea and why is it so signifigant? 2) Who is the political leader of Canada, and what is his/her title? 3) What is the capital of Canada? Sorry, i feel i have to post this, in order to stand up for myself as a canadian in front of such sheer ignorance. I do not mean to offend anyone by this post, especially Americans. I know there are a lot of you out there, and you aren't all like that...it is truly unfortunate that your public figures and icons all seem to portray the above qualities. In my experience, I go to your country, and always run into some ignorant goof who thinks we all live in igloos, or that Canada is really another state. Seriously, it happens. And Strych9, think before you speak, lest you become a stereotype. ------------------------------ From: ChristoTer@aol.com Date: Sun, 16 Feb 1997 16:24:37 -0500 (EST) Subject: Hesitant Return Fiends, Well, I wasn't going to come back, but the statement from the original instigator convinced me. Thanks, I guess. Okay, I'm going to spew a lot of stuff out in this particular post. First, the comment a few bibles back that Glenn might be a Nazi for saying he'd fight on the side of whites if a race war started. What side should he fight on? I mean, the idea of a race war is a bit silly in my view....I suppose street and gang violence may constitute a race war....but seriously, if America got into a fight with Canada, would you expect him to fight on the side of Canada? Of course not. It's logic. I don't think it necesarily had to be said.....but..... Glenn mentions he has two older brothers on Superock, I forgot if I mentioned that already, but I remember someone asking. Okay, the following three reviews are 1) Danzig 2/14/97 2) Violent World 3) Hell on Earth. 1) Danzig 2/14/97 Vic Theater, Chicago IL. The Misfits sold this place out in June, Danzig did not. First off, merchandise run down---About 10 different comics, priced as they would be in the back of Verotik comic for back orders. 5 shirts. 1) Cover of Blackacid, back with cities. 2) Cover of Sacrifice, same back as 1. 3) New skull. Backdrop cover in live show....same as original, a little fancier with horns bent in, same back as 1. 4) New Glenn/Skull with "Danzig5--Blackacidevil" or something to that measure on back. 5) Original skull with "Danzig" on back. They also had a knit stocking hat with "Danzig5" on it. Everything was $22. Shirts 1, 4, and 5 I had seen before in stores for $10, so if I were you I'd look around afterwards (that's what I did, at least). Okay, Cold Chamber. You think Marilyn Manson wants to be GG? If this guy's beard was pink he would be GG's twin. The music was Marilyn Manson/Korn with the chick from White Zombie on bass. It was worth the price of admission to see her jump around and then fall right on her ass. Half way through the set one of the monitor's caught on fire. A lot of humor. Electric Hellfire Club. They had free posters in lobby. Strange. Very strange. They had a dancing girl and 4 guys. A guy who looked like Trent Reznor on keyboards, a guy who looked like he belonged in Damn Yankees on guitar, a "drummer" (he played a machine) who looked like a scrawny bald Jerry Only, and a singer that kinda looked like Rob Zombie with a green fur coat. They were okay, but got boring after 40 minutes. They brought out a whip and were whipping people in the audience---not very appropriate, if you ask me. The dancer wore a skimpy little outfit and during one tune, the singer simulated raping her. If this was a strip club, I wouldn't have a problem with that, but seriously....it's an all ages Danzig show. Finally Danzig. Songs played (out of order)---Mother, Sacrifice, Until You Call, Twist of Cain, Her Black Wings, Left Hand, Dirty Black, Deep, It's Coming, 7th House, Blackacid, Hint of Her, Bringer of Death, Long Way Back Encore--Hand of Doom, She Rides. VERY short show. 67 minutes. Too short. Hint of Her Blood and Bringer of Death were cut short. HOHB was about 3 minutes long, and BOD had about half a verse and then cut to the bridge. Glenn was very active. I was front middle against the bar, and he was constantly by me. For those saying he has a beer belly, I accidently hit him in the stomach, and that was the hardest beer belly I've ever felt. He was very cool, and in the Long Way Back From Hell he stuck the mike in my face and we traded lines "Do you want to take a life," etc. Needless to say it was extremely exciting. GREAT show, but very short. Tommy was all smiles...he played well except on Dirty Black in which he fucks it up big time. He uses it as his time to show he knows his false harmonics. Josh was very cool, running around. No one paid much attention to him, especially when Tommy is near, so if he's near you, point to him and give him a thumbs up and he'll slap your hand and probably give you a pick. Glenn sounded great. Personally, I thought this was the tightest I'd ever seen the band. The crowd was the most violent I had ever seen and a lot of people had no class. Let me just say this---if you are a 200 pound+ male and you have to shove 90 pound girls around to feel like a tough guy, you are A WORTHLESS MAGGOT. I saw more than a few girls punched in the face for bumping into someone....security did a good job and throwing those assholes out, but it's truly sickening when you see something like that. I feel bad about not being able to do anything about it but, 1) I was pretty much stuck up there even if I wanted out. 2) I can't take on a gang of skinheards. As I said earlier I was front, middle, against the rail. By the end of the show, I recognized no one around me as just about everyone split that was there at the beginning of the set. Tons of skinheads. Of course, there were a lot of cool people and a lot of non-skinheads that cleaned up after a while. Another thing I'd like to address is that there were quite a few people yelling "Misfits, Misfits" "Hatebreeders" Etc. If you want to see Misfits songs, go to a Misfits show, not a Danzig one. 2) Violent World. I won't go into detail. I just don't like it, but that's because I'm not big on punk. London is okay, All Hell is okay, and Earth AD is okay. But, just okay. Eh. I'm glad I have it and everything, but it's not really my thing. 3) Hell on Earth. This is the tribute to buy! It's more expensive than VW, but it's twice as long and much much better. You can get it from a few people over the 'net. I got it at Impulse Music for $22. Okay, it's over an hour long, 30 tracks, 20 bands. Hightlights-- Entombed--Hollywood Babylon. YES! Best Misfits cover I have ever heard. Left Hand Solution--She. Female singer, slowed down, almost opera-like. Extremely beautiful. This is worth the price of the CD in itself. Tenebre--Halloween II. Imagine Type O covering this tune. Deranged--Some Kinda Hate. 4+ minutes long. SLOW death metal. Pretty funny, actually. Sex Sex Sex---Halloween. Black Aria meets the Misfits. Too cool. There's plenty more, a few punk bands, a few crappy bands, some pretty off the wall stuff. Lots and lots of variety. It's really worthwhile. Check it out. I think that's about it. Sorry this is so long, but I segmented it, so if you weren't interested it was very easy to just page down. Bootlegs---yep I'm the bootleg guy. $5 a tape. Check the list on the News section of the WWW page. If you want to see it, go there. I would post it, but I think this post is long enough as it is without another three page list of shit.
