Misfits headlining?

that sounds pretty cool.  I went to the fest last year.
I went there liking death metal, then I left absolutely hating it. 
Typ O negative was awesome though.  
the reason i got turned off from death metal was because i was there 
for abot 12 hours, and finally eard how bad it really was, and plus i 
hate the real fans.  "yeah! satan rules!"  everyone with there stupid 
whaddya call symbol with their hands.  yknow that stupid satan hand 
gesture....  it's so effin lame.

anyway-
i guess id go again if misfits play..  oh yeah, and CC, cause they're 
funny.

Mr. Steele...
good point about hitler..
one question though.  did you mean to say 600 million? that's an 
awful lot.  it is actually 6 mil.  i hope you saying 600 was just a 
hyperbole.

I hear all this stuff about NAZI skins...  is everyone positive that 
the skins were nazis?  I hope yo people know that not all skins are 
Nazis... such as SHARPS (skin head against racial prejudice)...
if they were nazis, sorry i wrote this, cause they suck.. but i don't 
want the good guys getting a bad name.

Hi Chipmonk

To all you fucking stupid people out there that are "huge" MiSFiTS fans 
but still trash Glenn, listen: He wrote all the the songs you are saying 
you love to trash him as a songwriter is wrong, as a person its okay 
because he isn't the most pleasant person in the world. Hah!I'm going to

I don't know if this movie was ever made - I don't think so.  Either
way, The Misfits never recorded a song for its soundtrack.

Jerry and Doyle were looking for someone who could do the songs correctly
and who had the voice, look, and writing ability to help them continue the
band.  Michale is this person.  

I have a feeling that many of you who complain that Michale is too much like
Glenn, would be complaining even MORE if Jerry and Doyle had selected someone
completely unlike Glenn.  It's a no-win situation for people like that.

All of them care about the safety of the people they consider their fans.
Did you miss the issue in which the Allentown show was reviewed?  They 
stopped playing because of the skinheads fighting with people.  At the DC
show there was some fighting and both Jerry and Michale spoke up against
it.  I believe something similar happened at the Cleveland show as well.
I don't think they consider the trouble-makers who come onstage and bother
them to be fans. 
 
However, that doesn't make beating the shit out of anybody okay, in my opinion.

That almost sounds like a contradiction.

Chud's style is different than previous Misfits drummers, but I don't that's
any reason to say he sucks.

I still don't understand your comparisons of Earth AD to metal.  I would think
that you, as such an anti-metal extremist (as if there aren't a million better
things to be against), would have a better understanding of what heavy metal
sounds like.  There are no guitar solos on the Earth AD album, the songs don't
last longer than 1 or 2 minutes - it's just a different production style and 
a faster paced album.  Most Misfits fans I know prefer that stuff to the
Static Age stuff for some reason.  Perhaps you're not a Misfits fan.

It sounds like it was the worst experience of your life and your ears are
probably hurting from that 'shit' you were forced to listen to.  How noble of
you to stand through the infinite torture of this evil metal (aka SHIT) band,
so you could present us with your summary of their downfall.

Don't worry.  They read every issue.  They'll see this, just as they have
seen you trash them in the past.

> misfits.

Perhaps this is the wrong mailing list for you then.  The new incarnation of
the Misfits will be the topic of almost every future issue as you can imagine.

Anyway David, I'm glad you actually went to the show to give them a chance.
I think you were way too hard on them and expected too much out of the show,
but at least you saw/heard for yourself.  I hope you don't take my sarcasm
the wrong way.

I just want to point out that this is the band's first tour in about 12 years
and a lot of things have changed for them.  The clubs they played in back in
the early 80's/late 70's were different from the ones they play in now, and
many back then didn't have security.  There's a HIGH probability that the
guys really aren't aware of how badly security treats the fans from time to 
time.  They try to do what they can - they rescheduled the Detroit show
just because of 3 people on this mailing list.  They do take the safety, as
well as the opinions, of their fans seriously.

This is also Michale's first tour as well as his first real experience with
dealing with such devoted/crazy/random fans.  His stage presence may also take
years to develop.  Imagine seeing The Misfits back in the Cough/Cool days,
before they had a guitarist.  Do you think it was fun to watch Glenn hit
the keyboards for an hour?  Back then he had long shaggy hair, as did Jerry.
They would have seemed like a different band.

The Misfits of the old days were not above fighting with their fans.  One of
the videos widely distributed among fans shows Glenn getting in a fight with
somebody onstage, and we've all heard plenty about the Elite Club show where
they started a riot and Doyle hit someone on the head with his guitar.

Finally, in every crowd there will be people who aren't going to be happy.
There are currently 778 people subscribed to this list, and tons of others
who don't have email or who just look at the web page.  For all of the
disappointed people I have encountered (the small handful on this mailing list
included), I have found there are 50-100 others who love what's going on.

It only has one version of All Hell Breaks Lose, a live version, which in my

Hey Bobby!

I got your response to my little addition to the bible.  I take it you
didn't like what I had to say. 

Basicaly I don't really give a shit!  The satements I made in no way reflect
how I feel about you or what you've done; past, present or future.  I am
also not going to apologize for what I said.  If you want to try and educate
us on the real story, go ahead!  I support you.  But also, if some of us
just want to hear the music and not the dog puke, just let us.  

I took the the two minutes to let the Fiends know how a show went and that I
enjoyed the show without the Rikki Lake hour attached.  It is a shame you
don't resepect that.

Good luck with your new bands, I am sure they will do just fine. :)

Xxiippyy

Someone (xxipppyy) mentioned that he likes the MISFITS and he doesn't
care how much they fuck someone over etc... Adolph Hitler did some good
things, too. He created Germany's highway system for one. He was also a
good painter. So; in your sense of logic. "Hitler was a wonderful, great
guy", right? We should ignore the 600 million Jews thing. Right? A
scumbag is a scumbag. Period. And this from a college student. Don't you
make any consideration about 'decency'.  Should we forgive John Wayne
Gacy, since he did do some cool artwork himself?

while looking through my box set booklet last night i saw two interesting
things. 
1) on the blurry picture of the frache'/mr. jim lineup part of glenn's jacket
sleeve has three stripes on it. one is red,and other black and another
yellow. the three colors of the german flag. i don't know the significance of
this but it is interesting. maybe it's for his heritage, maybe...who knows?
2) in the picture where you can see glenn and jerry's backs jerry has
"misfits" painted above a skull, under the skull he has "undead" painted on
there. very interesting.
sorry if this stuff has been posted before but, i don't remember it.

I saw the "new" misfits last week and I just wanna say how pathetic. those
guys are a buch of sold out motherfuckers. the misfits died along with all
punk rock back in 1980. now that green day has come along to make a profit
from so-called "punk" music everyone wants to jump on the band wagon. that
jerry only character has got to go, hes sixty years old for god's sake, and
bobby steal? he looked like some football player. I couldn't see the drummer
cuz he was hiding from the crowd behind his stupid motley crue drumset, and
what a moron that new singer is. what a terrible ripoff of glen danzig. He's
like a Elvis impersonater or something. I think glen danzig should sue their
asses off for using his songs and calling it the misfits.

Re: that Dave guy who put down the Misfits as a metal band(?)

Jeez, I really love it when I see that "them and us" attitude.  Why the 
hell do "metalheads" have to hate "punks" or vice versa(yes I realize 
you didn't say anything about them hating each other, but you obviously 
have a large amount of hatred for "metalheads")?  I'm sorry, 
this whole thing sounds confusing to me.  But then again, I'm just a 
neanderthalic metalhead who got into the Misfits from hearing Metallica's 
covers and I therefore have no right to call myself a Misfits fan.  I 
like metal, I like some punk bands like DK, Bad Religion(if they even 
count now), and the Sex Pistols.  I hate it when people stereotype.  I 
like how someone can just say "metal is crap period".  Interesting that 
someone can make such a broad statement about an entire genre of music.
Whatever.  You're entitled to that opinion.

Shit, I really hope this doesn't start a metal vs. punk arguement.

Subject: Bloodfeast 2

As far as I know, although it might have been planned when the Misftis were
still together (at the time the i/v in question was done), the sequel to the
"grand-daddy of all gore films", Bloodfeast, was never filmed.  If it was,
it's news to me since I've seen thousands of horror films and have never
heard a word about that one.  Having a Misfits song in the soundtrack would
have been a thousand fold improvement of the original film's music which you
could say was, well, very "experimental".  If only the film "Bloodfeast" was
as good as the song ... 

- BILE666 (Long live Fuad Ramses!).

PS -- I got the Stone Pony show from a video dealer, not a store.  If you
want it, write to:  Brian Allison/105 McCabe Ave./Apt. #307/Bradley Beach,
NJ/07720.  It was $20.  Someone said that $20 was too much for a video.  If
you're paying less than that for a video, than you're lucky because most of
the places (like record shows, toy shows, horror movie conventions) where
I've seen bootleg videos for sale, not only concert videos but rare horror
films, uncut prints from European prints or laser disk, $20 is the BASIC
price.  If someone wants to, they can get a copy of the video from me and be
in charge of making copies of it for any of the fiends out there who want
one.  I don't have the time to run off that many copies and deal with sending
them all out.  So if someone out there wants to act as the distribution head,
e-mail me and let me know.  I don't care about people getting it for free
after I paid $20 for it, I just don't want to have to deal with it ...

MURDER OF GERMANY'S JEWISH POPULATION?

besides, you said that john wayne gacy should not be forgiven for his crimes
because he painted well. no shit. but if you are subjectively analyzing HIS
ART, it does not FUCKING MATTER what he did. xxxippy enjoys the MUSIC the
'fits made, regardless of their personal actions. you have to seperate an

	Well the one thing it is missing is WAU, I mean it has tracks on
there but not the recordings that went on to the WAU album.  Because it
wasnt a plan 9 or caroline release.  That is why there is no

	Well my favorite line up is the WAU line up of Glenn, Jerry, Doyle,
and Googy.  I just love that album, There is not a weak spot on it, and
with 3 hits from hell ( iknow bobby was on there also).  The sound the look
was just perfect.  They seemed to have more direction at that point.  They
seemed more focused.  But again I say that is one of the great attributes
to the Misfits is the difference between some of the recordings.  
	And as for the which do I like better between the box and regular
releases.  Well that is tough I go back and forth.  I have to say that the
alternate versions are great to hear for a change of pace but the stuff
that actually made it I prefer, with the exception of Halloween II.  I love
the box version , the sound is great and its much spookier then the 7δ
version, and who doesnt love the ending? 
	and its good to have you here I havent seen anything this good come
from somone so new.  I also have all the page printed up and I find it very
usefull to have all misfits, samhain, danzig, and undead at my fingertips,
so keep up the good work.

	I like the idea of the CG at a computer.  The screen should have the website on it.  
The logo in purple sounds really cool.
	Quotes at the end: I like 'em, I think they really show what the
person is thinking.  Some do need to be shortened though.  Really like
the reservoir dog one, "Cause your a faggot, that's why."  BTW my
favorite RD is Mr. Blonde.  
	Jolanta: Graves was well behaved at the Boston show.
	EAD is some of the best stuff the misfits have ever done.
	David: could your post have been a little longer and harder to
read?? Run a spellcheck **PLEASE**.  As for your opinions on metal and
it's fans.  I can't argue about the music because that's your opinion,
but not all metal fans are assholes.  For example: Me.  I could have
written "If you hate metal then fuck you, your so fucking stupid. metal
rules!"  but I didn't because I respect your opinion, so stop ragging on
metalheads.

um, bobby last i heard was that around 20 million jews where victems of 
the holocaust, if your talking victem rates like 600 million you must be 
thinking of the catholics, not the nazi's i also read an interesting 
article about how hitler's doctor perscribed over 30 different drugs, 
including cocain, morphine, methadone, and dolphamine; whose side effects 
include paranoia, megalomania, delusions, and a bunch of other unhealthy 
thought-proccesses, it was during these drug-induced stupors that he came 
up with such ^brilliant^ (sarcasm for you people on aol)ideas as the 
holocaust, fighting a two front war, a no retreat policy, and the 
werewolf brigades (ok you have to admit that this was actually a good 
idea). not that this is any excuse for the atrocities that 
he caused, its just sort of makes you think. 
oh, anyways at the allentown show the misfits probably didn't jump into 
the crowd because they aren't stupid, if they would have done that at 
worst they would have gotten there asses kicked by over 30 nazi assholes, 
and at best they would have caused a riot resulting a lot more injuries. 
they stopped playing which stopped the fight almost immediatly. and no, 
the nazi's weren't bigger than the regular kids, most of them were rather 
puny little cowards who wouldn't start shit unless they had at least ten 
of there friends to back them up. you can bet that if there are less than 
10 skins at a show they will be the most well behaved people there, out 
of fear of getting a boot to their face.
michael graves... sounding and looking like danzig, hmm not at the 3 
shows i saw him at. maybe the real danzig filled in for that show or 
something. michael doesn't sound like glenn at all. glenn has a better 
voice, and sings the songs a little better. he doesn't look like glenn 
either, he's taller and doesn't have a big nose like glenn did. check out 
some old misfits videos and you'll see the differences... 
well i'm going to the roselands show in 2 weeks, anyone want to meet at 
the show? say like during anthrax's set downstairs?

Subject: BOOTLEGS

All right, everyone.

Since there are all these rip-offs going around with outrageously expensive
boots floating around, Mark and myself have discussed this and decided to
start a cheap way to get these boots around so the rip-offs can finally stop!

If you check the page under the Collectors or News sections, my list will be
there along with information as to what we're doing.

Basically, tapes will be sold at $5 per 90 minutes blocks,
or trades will also be accepted.  This is a low and fair price....considering
the fact that there are people out there who sell tapes for as much as $20
for a tape, and who's to say they are good for it?

I have dealt with people on the Bible for a couple of years now and many
people can and I'm sure will vouch for me that I am good for this.  
Check the page...if you have any questions feel free to e-mail me at

ChristoTer@aol.com

[The text from the page is included below.]

Fiends!

The following is a list of my shows.  Please feel free to pass this list
around to any of your friends or whomever may appreciate this.  The cost will
be $5 PER 90 MINUTES.  Trades are also welcome and encouraged!!!    Expect
there to be about 2-3 weeks for you to get your tape...although it will
probably take less time.  

I will tape any and all of this stuff---it is all AUDIO ONLY.  No videos will
be made.

Well that is one oppinion.  Dont come on here thinking that you are the be

you  thoink that your oppinion is the goods?  I mean after reading your post,
it is obvious that you are an idiot.

>as far as they chicago shows goes, i know have figured out why so many 
>punks are not into this list and not interested in the misfits anymore... 
>and why metalheads have taken thier place. 

First off there is no clear classification of just what the sound or category
the Misfits fit into, and who cares if there are metal heads in here?  What
did metal ever do to you.  I have a feeling that a bunch of metal heads and
bands and roadies all came to your house late one night and killed your
family.  If so Im sorry.  And if you have a problem with there not being
enough true punks here(like yourself)  then why dont you do little searching
and get them on here.  Cant you just appreciate the fact that enough people
get on here and care enough to spend valuable time reading and writing to the
bible?

 Antrax just changed singers, and I personally like both.  They are ligit
and still together.  Now how much longer they will last I dont know.  But for
the movie, I liked it they put allot of time into it, and at the shows I was
at the crowd seemed to dig it.  So yet again this is your opinion and not the
worlds.

Michale does not sound exactly like Glenn, maybe similiar but not the same.
 And for his moves he does allot of stuff new like jumping into the crowd
from tjhe speakers.  When you sing for a band like the misfits there are
certain things you must do , like leaning into the audience.  And  the way he
moves is where the music takes you.  I mean it is what the music invokes you
to do.  I know it is how I move to the music.  And as for you and your
awesome punkers  you guys like to make a pit a beat the shit out each
other.  I hate you guys it almost impossible to enjoy the show with assholes
like you.  All this punk shit is so stupid, I mean you all wear spike and
spiked hair, and leather jackets.  You are a joke!  That does nothing but
inflate your egos to say:hey I am sooooo punk!more punk then you.  Why do
you want to stereo type all people who are into metal?  Im sure all the
people are not the cool ass punk like you are but are into just as much if
not more, and you wouldnt even know it cuz you write them off at face value.
 I mean if you are a punker and wear that stuff thats OK, but dont look down
on others cuz they dont fit your ideal punker image.,

Now at one show I was at the security was beating on this one kid who surfed
up to the stage, and Michale yelled out for them to stop, and they brought
the kid on stage.  Why the security does this I dont know, but if It really
got bad they would say somthing.

First of all you would be hard pressed to find a band that cares more about
their fans then the Misfits.  They do soooo much for their fans, but there is
only so much they could do about a situation like that.  They do there best,
and if you have such a major problem with that then why the fuck didnt stick
around to talk to them about it?  I am sure they would have appreciated that.
 And in further shows they would look for it.

That is stupid, I mean itsd kind of like cutting off your nose to spite your
face, people came to see a show and if they were to stop playing all the
people who didnt get   shit  and didnt get thrown out would have lost out.
 Try to think of the big picture.  Pearl Jan Huh.....I thought you hated

If the music was so terrible why didnt you just leave?  Why didnt you jump up
onstage and teach them a thing or two?  You seem to know everything, I think
you should seriously think about being their mgr, and producer cuz they
really need to work on stuff.  And you being such a bad ass punker you know
how it should be done.  Slayer, another refferance to metal......  I dint get
into them because of metallica, and I know other people who didnt either.  Do
you hate Danzig?  As a matter of fact lat carress was not availaboe unless
you bought a bootleg, and I doubt that anyone who was just curious about the
band wouldve paid outragous bux for that.  Sorry some of us were not born
into this world with a set of spike around our neck, purple hair, and a
leather jacket like you.  Frankly your holier then thou , I am a punker ass
sux, and you are an idiot.  Punk is an attitude a vibe, a do it yourself
thing and have no one regulate your music, and like it or not that is what
the Misfits are doing.  So in short go jump off a bridge, and do the world a
favor.  Or start your own punk band with all these awesome punk ideals and
then kill yourslef, the ultimate punk conclusion.  And you  and sid can chat
about how lame the bands are now.

Sorry for the long post, and in pieces my mail can only send dtuff so big and
I didnt want to missquote his moronic ass, I hope this guy pissed some of you
all off.

the Chicago concert- You sound like a damn fucking dick. Analyzing every
little thing, the drums, the way Michale moved. If you didn't like the way
the Misfits sounded you should of left the show, no one was asking you to
stay. You talked about how Michale beating up the guy, the crowd cheered him
on,-typical metalhead neanderthal response. Violence has always been a part
of punk. Take for example the Sex Pistols. Sid V. played with bloody noses
because he got into fights with the crowd. Jerry and Doyle did not pick
Michale to have Glen"s presence they picked Michale for his talent. If you
don't like the Misfits then don't fuckin" listen to them. I and many others
think they're great. Jerry and Doyle care about their fans, didn't you read
about thier earlier concerts, how fuckin' Neo-Nazis were beating up some
kid. They stopped the song and went to help out the kid then kicked the Nazi
out. Metalheads? I saw more punks their than metalheads(the metalheads left
when the Misfits came on)The punks were there and were there after the
concert to meet the MISFITS. 

                                                
Dave, 
Obviously you haven't been paying enough attention to the posts lately- alot
of fiends were skeptical about the Misfits with the new lead singer. But
many have found out the Michale has talent and with time he will get better
and better. I don't think any group is infailible(I liked the old Metallica,
the new Metallica sucks and Cliff Burton is rolling in his grave right now). 
                                                
Michale is not a Pussy, he never got a bloody nose at the Chicago
concert,and his shirt was ripped off after he jumped off the balcony. (To
set the record straight)

To Carl(csylvest),
I met you at the Chicago concert.
Ps.Anyone have the chicago concert on tape if so please contact me. Sorry so
long. 

                                                Maria

From: Jackal 

Hey Fiends,
            I'm wanting to get in touch with Brent Eyestone (I think thats
his name) about wanting to get one of his video's and I've lost his email
address.  So Brent if you read this or anyone else who has his email address
please give it to me.

One more thing, remember back when the box set came out how everyone was
trying to figure out what some of the correct lyrics were. Ok listen to
Wolfs Blood I believe it is the second chorus.  the book says

                                 And I feel my heart is dead
                                 And I feel my muscles twitch
                                 And I feel my stomach split
                                 And I Know I'm not a man
Ok where it says   "And I feel my stomach split" it sounds to me like he
says "And I feel my cock burn". Please listen to this and tell me what you
think. I know he say "and I feel my stomach split" the first chorus, but not
in the second.

Well I was just wondering if anyone else had noticed that.

From: undead@juno.com (Bobby Steele)

FIENDS,

	The response to THE UNDEAD / TIMES SQUARE MAILING LIST has been
pretty good. I've had about 15 replies so far. If you're interested . .
. email me and I'll put you on it.

	If you just want to get an idea of what TIMES SQUARE sounds like;
check out our web site at: http://www.con2.com:80/~elaphe/t-square.html

	I had the misfortune (heheheh) of a visit from Crimson Ghost and
PRH this past Tuesday. Those two together are nutz. I had a great time,
and I'll tell ya, CG's an alright guy - even if he is from New Jersey.
I'm sure he'll have plenty to say about it, so I'll leave it at that.

	TIMES SQUARE is playing next Friday, June 21, at THE PYRAMID, 101
Ave 'A', NYC. I hope to see some of you there. Be sure to come over and
say HI.

Subject: torch666 wants to know

Hello again from Canada.  torch666, you wanted to know where all the boys 
from Danzig went?  Well, Chuck is filling in for his late brother in the 
Four Horsemen.  His brother died, so Chuck wanted to help out the band.  
Check out some of their new material, it's not too bad, but nothing like 
Danzig or 'fits.  John is studying classical guitar somewhere in the 
northern states.  This is what he likes, classical guitar, which is why 
he's not in the Danzig lineup anymore (Glenn likes simple chords, and 
John apparently wanted to do fancy solos).  Eerie I think is doing solo 
stuff or else starting up a new band.  The new Danzig album is coming out 
in late summer/ early fall.  
	Well, seein' as how I've been using my school's server for 
e-mailing and stuff, and I don't have the net at home, this will be my 
last posting until I get linked up at home.  Sorry to break all your 
hearts, but I promise I'll be back some time soon.

	turn the lights down low

Count me in for a shirt. I think the CG sitting at a PC (or Mac) is cool idea, you should also show a mouse in his hand, but it appear to be a live one (not the computer kind, if you catch the pun) but i cant draw it so its just a thought! Earth AD?? Its a killer album, one that got most of my hardcore fiends hooked on the 'fits, but I started out with WAU so that is still my fave, but shit, any Misfits album is better than most other bands would ever do! Hoping to hit the Roseland show, Asbury convention center and then Action Park. One thing i noticed on the shows I've seen and plan to see. 1. Stone Poney - $13 2. Allentown - $15 3. Roseland - $17.50 4. Asbury - $20 What is this pattern? If this keeps up, by the time the tour next summer, it will be like the friggin Eagles @ a $100 a pop!! My opinion, ditch the dead weight and extra cost of Anthrax and Cannibal Corpse, support the misfits with local bands, and keep the cost down. I dont know if they got legal bills to pay or what, but $20 is getting steep! Granted, I paid $27.50 for Pistols tix today, but shit, they got heroin habits to feed and Ronnie Biggs to pay! Cool thing about seeing the 'fits in NYC and Asbury at least will be that the Hammerskins wont be there to show their lack of cerebral activity.

I just wanted to say thanks to all of you that stuck up for me and the music. I appreciate it! I don't want tons of people pissed off at anyone, it just seems that the music is forgotten too often. I'm not even gonna bother mentioning the names of the famous/infamous people that were mentioned in replies and responses to my original posting.

I enjoy hearing about the music and any upcoming shows or projects, but that seems to get overwhelmed by all of the constant bullshit of everyone trying to be cooler than the rest. It seems like so often the Misfits take the back seat to everyone's petty gripes about other subscribers. I subscribe to get cool information, not to read someone belittle another fiend to make themselves feel more adequate as a human. That is fucking stupid and childish. Thank you and goodnight... ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 Jun 1996 15:39:39 -0500 (CDT) From: "J. Jorden" Subject: Children In Heat- the Chicago 7 (8) Ok Ok, you guys might think I'm crazy but I think I figured out what=20 Children in Heat is about. The Chicago 7 (8) involved with the riots=20 outside of the Democratic National Convention in 68(?) here goes: "Children in heat they have no conscience, no resistence. You gotta see this big reaction, no resistance." The riot happened in the summer, it was mainly young war protesters. It was on TV (see this big reaction) and they were easily quashed by a police in riot gear. "Celephane sex, a new way of life..." flower children, hippies, free love, blah blah. "Pissin blood for seven days." well that's the 7 reference, dunno if that's a reach? :) "You cant control them... they're always gonna run away." "... are young kindle wood, I see them burning, They all changed their name to Chicago" kindling wood, burning... makes sense dont it? Chicago... the Chicago Well I dunno. That's the best explanation for that song and especially the Chicago & 7 references. Think about it... '68 danzig was in what... Jr High School or elementary? He saw the riots on TV. Then when he's in a "punk" band he's writing a song. Perhaps about revolutionaries from the 60's (already his favorite time frame) like Bobby Seale and Abby Hoffman. jon ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 Jun 1996 16:47:53 -0500 (CDT) From: David Arthur Aufox Subject: mark, it is real interesting how you believe the misfits to be infallible. nothing is perfect. i refuse to cast anyone on a pedistle. as far as graves goes.... it isn't his fault he sounds like glenn, personally i think he has a very good voice, and his stage presence isn't his fault either. i doubt he was the one one who watched glennn and said i will look like this one stage. i believe that if jerry wanted to replace glenn almost exactly he did a good job, but it should be admitted that was the case. it isn't graves fault on that issue. my definition of metal is obviously different from yours. guitar solos do not make a difference on what is metal or what is not metal or what is or is not punk. shit the decendents have guitar solos, so mark, they must be a metal band huh? nope. metal is in the style of guitar playing usually lost of muting, it is also in the style of teh attack. the difference between punk and metal is the use of muting (mostly the e string) and getting that chunck a chuckna sound, verse chord progressions in poppier punk and discordance and dissonce in emo orineted punk. soundgarden, typo negitive (later stuff, earlier they had more of hardcore feel), white zombie, biohazard etc... are all metal bands.... pegboy, big black slint, june of 44, shellac, gauge, sludeworth, and cap'n jazz are punk. musicly metal and punk are worlds apart. when i said that they were tighter than anything i have heard them do live before i ment it. it wasn't a contradiction, you can be very well together and still sound like crap. as far as being anti-metal well if that is the worst thing anyone ever calls me..... i think metal is simply crap musicly. the fans of metal i have encountered are idiots. i don't think that listening to mtel makes one an idiot, but i have found that most idiots listen to metal. i don't loose sleep or care about metal or anything what does bother me, interfere with things that i enjoy. and that is where the misfits come into being.... i like the misfits alsot. they used to be my favorite band at one time. and seeing people destroy something that was once good is agrevating. that is what is happening here. metal simply is terrible music, but what makes it worse is the mindset of the people who listen to it. as far as voilence at shows.... yes, glenn did get into fights at shows... does that make it right? no, it would be pointless me me to criticise the band for doing shit like that back then concidering that i was around 6 at the time. but i can and will critize any band that does that now. mike had no right in hitting that guy, and that psuuy little roadie who ran out just to kick a guy who was getting chocked in the face b/c he had to kiss graves' ass was inexcusible. jerry did nothing. that's not true he kept playing. exactly opposite of what he should have done. point is if a band regardless of what music they play is going to claim to care about the fans act like it.if all they do is sign things and talk with people that doesn't equal out aloowing people to be hurt at a show. doyle almost refuses to interact with the fans from what i have heard. as far as chud goes....yes, he is different from other drummers they have had. he sucks, he isn't that good at what he does, and he is doing thw wrong thing to begin with. with a different drummer and stopped truning the songs into metal musicly things would be better. as for the security thing bullshit mark. it isn't too hard to find out anything about what a city's clubs are like in that respect, also they could have told security to knock it off. they didn't do either. aisde from playing the typical places PUNK bands play that have no violence, they were left witrh security that beats the shit out of people for fun. they could have stopped that though by telling security before hand what not to do.. i'm glad they read this mark. maybe they will actually learn something. but i want to hear from them a responce to this. b/c their behavior is unaccptible. if they are going to play metal that is fine they should just admit it. but there is no excuse for allowing that behavoir to occur in security asnd within the bands and it tour staff. i refuse to kiss thier ass unlike some. -dave ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 14 Jun 1996 15:40:18 -0700 From: adam bodnar Subject: uneasy listening CD NOW! has the Eerie Von/Mike Morance "Uneasy Listening" album available on advanced order (sale price $12.97 for CD, $8.99 for Cassette). The release date is scheduled for July 2/96. This whole Hilter/Misfits debate that just started up is fucking retarded. Bobby Steele's comments were completely unnecessary and pointless. Good rebuttle...yeah, right? It amazes me how many times he criticizes a fiend for being a college student. What...is there something shameful about getting an education? Gee, I wonder if Steele himself has a college/university degree?...or could this be why he is so fond (sarcasm intended) of college students. Why can't a college student express his or her opinion. What is Bobby the only one who is allowed to think independently? What happened to freedom of speech? Just because we aren't OLD, doesn't mean we don't know anything? Where does he get such divine knowledge? Old age...I don't think so! Who would have thought it was so uncool to be a college student? Wow, I think we should all drop out of University, start a band, get into a big fight with the lead singer and the bass player, and then 13 years down the road (when we're broke) bitch and complain about 50,000 dollars due to us in royalties over a few songs which we never even wrote, but just played while we were in the band. Whoever made the comment in last friday's bible about Steele always going into a "Ricki Lake" commentary hit the ball right on the mark. Was there some lesson that we were supposed to learn from his remarks...gee, I must have missed it!

It was so fucking funny walking down the street with him and having ton's of "brothaz" callin' him "Spider" We didn't get it til hours later, Somebody prolly once asked him why he walked funny - and of course Bobby had to tell the truth, "I have Spina-bifida..." it's not a far stretch that some dumb mother fucker figured he said Spider-ripida or something, hehehe "Oh I don't know...just keep these tan!" In the course of walking 8 blocks Bobby was called "Spider", "Milton" and somebody even pointed and said "Hey look it's Keith Richards" HAHAHAHAHA I can honestly say at this point that Bobby is a great guy!! Well, let me qualify that... He's great as long as you can steer the subject away from the Misfits... but we already knew that. All around I'd have to rate his sorry ass an 8 on the "Punk-as-Fuck-o-meter" Now gimme some more of your Chicken Sate ya bastard... The really funny shit happened after Patricia and I left Bobby's... We went to get on the PATH Train to head back to Joizy and we got fucked. Those fucking automatic money taker machines wouldn't take our money, So nutty Denmother just fuckin' jumps over the turnstile, me, being the dopey fuck that I am, follows suit. Ok great now we're on the train for free! we have to take it all the way to Newark and change trains, then we gotta pay again. Fuck! Same thing Fuckin machine won't take our money, more turnstile jumping! Great we're $5.00 up on the Port Authority at this point! Now we get back to the Parking garage and the fucker's closed and chained off :( there sits Patricia's rental car ready to r'n'r but we can't get the fucking thing out. They expect us to walk three blocks to the attended lot...In JERSEY CITY!! AT NIGHT Fuck That! Now me, being the dick I am, I start doing doughnuts in the parking lot, Trish is getting pissed, She walks up the the chain (I really thought she was just gonna bite it off) She looks it over, sees the padlock, looks at the other end and it's held on by a fucking nut and bolt! The bitch just reaches down and unscrews it! hehehehe SAVINGS $13.00 add that to the $5 from the PATH and we really made out OK!!! Bobby would have been proud!!! Shit, with all that Saved $$$ maybe we should have let him get that dessert he begged for! hehehe In the near future Patricia and I will review the Times Square demo tape.

Im a little late for posting this, but Ive been extremely busy lately. June 7, 1995 - Chicago, IL - Vic Theater What can I say about this show?!?!? Waited in line with a mixed crowd sporting anything from a devilock to nice clean cut hair, and a variety of fan wear. . .shirts anywhere from KISS to Oasis (?) to Ramones, etc. Being a fan of both bands on the bill, I was completely psyched for this show. Ive been an Anthrax fan for many years, and contrary to the thoughts before, they never broke up, they just pulled in a newly talented vocalist, just as the Misfits did. Since there are probably a number of metalheads subscribed, Ill go through the Anthrax show as well, so if your not a fan, just skip this paragraph. After the completely shitty opening act, Vic Vacuum and the Attachments (I dont understand why bad bands open up for really cool ones, first Gren, then the Deftones, then the Cows, and now this!!!) Anthrax hit the stage digging their claws in and ripping through a set of Thrax classics. Opened up with Caught in a Mosh and played their way through songs like Got the Time, Random Acts of Senseless Violence, and even Startin Up a Posse. They were in top form, playing much better than when I saw them in December. They were a tight knit group of great musicians who are far from washed up. The only thing they may be washed up by would be their popularity. Back to the underground. . . Now onto the Misfits. . . WOW!!! What can I say about these guys! Being Im only a 17 year old, Ive only been listening since 1992, this was the LOUDEST and most WILD show Ive ever been to. I thought the two Ramones shows were insane! The drums, as explained before, are gigantic, the floor tom looking like a big fucking cannon, protruding with spikes to make it look just up the Misfits alley. I was against the barricade, on Doyles side, and got a great view of the little glow in the dark Crimson Ghosts on his wall of sound. The movie was completely insane! If somehow a transcription of the movies would surface, post it right away! Chud walked out then Doyle and Jerry, with the out of this world guitars, and then Michale, who scared the complete shit out of me. The Crimson Ghost makeup was brilliant! Fit him great! The vocals didnt come through too well through the PA due to the heavy distortion on both guitars and the thundering drums, but from what I heard, Michale is a great replacement for Glenn. While possessing some Glenn qualities, he does have a style of his own. I actually didnt think he was acting like Glenn too much, but thats just my opinion. During Children. . . for some reason still unkown to me, Michale got into a little rumble with a dick up front. The guy, and these people still bother me!, tried to get away from the gaurds who were escorting him out. Why do people get into fights at shows, begin to get kicked out, and still try and fuck with security? Security will always win, its a given. It was nice to hear some Only vocals too! While Michale was climbing up to the balcony, Jerry vocalized Ghouls Night Out, which was quite a highlight! The new songs sound GREAT! I personally like The Hunger the best, but Black Light and The Haunting come in a close second! Due to some reason unbeknownst to many, there is some curfew in Chicago that I guess states that shows have to be over by 11:00. This prevented the encores to be presented, but they did get a chance to play two more songs after We Are 138. Even though Jerry promised to play us Eagles, they didnt get a chance to, but went through Come Back which they dedicated to a fan who recently passed away. Ive never been a big fan of this song, BUT it was great this time. It sounded really good! They closed the show with Die Die My Darling and left the stage. Unfortunately, I left right after the show and didnt get a chance to meet up with the band or any other Bible people, but hey. . .NEXT TIME!!! The set list to this show was almost identical to all the others, but Ill post it anyway. Halloween Horror Business I Tuned Into a Martian Death Comes Ripping All Hell Breaks Loose The Hunger Static Age TV Casualty Hybrid Moments Last Caress Skulls Devil's Whorehouse Return of the Fly Teenagers from Mars Children In Heat (half Michale vocals half Jerry) Violent World Vampira Black Light The Haunting 20 Eyes Hollywood Babylon Horror Hotel Ghouls Night Out (Jerry vocals) Attitude London Dungeon Astro Zombies Hate Breeders Bullet We are 138 Come Back Die, Die My Darling.

A few weeks ago I was watching Rage TV (Music show here) and they played a Fred Shniender (sp?) video. He was the faggy guy in the B52's. I guess he's solo now. Well anyway, in this video they showed a kid wearing a misfits t-shirt for like a second. I think it was one of the new shirts with the Jurek CG. Anyone else see this video??? Mark, loved your reply to that David guy. Way to go! gotogo bye HELLHOUND "Yea evil is as evil does and who, who but me could write this book of cruel. I send my murdergrm to all these monster kids.

Ok about 25 min. into the movie when the main character (the kid, I don't recall his name) goes into his dorm type room, he's talking to this other kid, and in the back ground is a GIANT Fiend club poster (cg skull) hanging on the wall, it looks like it is silk. Next to it is another poster of just a CG skull.

It seems like there is a great base here for the band that has spoken very highly (for the most part) about the Misfits show a week ago. This show of support is great. Sometimes I get down on Chicago for the lack of support I see for "heavier music." But this rave for The Misfits contradicts any of those bad feelings. Rock on. "Kennedy's the Reason" on the back of the shirt kicks ass. Not only will that be a fun play on words that only us Bible fiends will get (and hopefully make new people inquire about the list), but it also pays tribute to one of the biggest reasons that the Bible exists: Mark Kennedy. You rule, dude. Brent - the "Evil is as Evil Does" video rocks - thanks. I love the cover. You got it to me so quickly!!!! Gouge comes ripping. BTW - whoever said that their roomate thought Glenn was saying "Buttfeast" instead of "Bloodfeast" ---- that fucking kills me! I think of that every time I hear the song! ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 15 Jun 1996 13:19:03 -0700 (MST) From: Ben Todd Subject: Some 'Fits stuff, some not Hello Fiend Bastards and Bee-atches, I have a few things to share, opinions and what not. -The Bobby Steele comment on Hitler: Hey kids, lighten the fuck up. I mean, granted, Hitler had some pretty shitty things done, but BOBBY was trying to make a point (I forget what it was) and it was taken out of context and you guys went apeshit. I think this was the sarcasm he posted about a few months ago that he doesn't often share because everyone and their sister takes it wrong. I'll say... -Greg Petre: Hey Greg, just a comment on your comment about the "good guy" skinheads. I've known/met White Power Skins and SHARPS/Unity skins. Lemme tell you: there are assholes on both sides of the fence. As far as I'm concerned, they're just extremists of different kinds. It's either "If you *don't* hate everyone, I'm gonna kick yer ass!" or "If you hate *anyone* I'm gonna kick yer ass!" Let's take things on individual bases, kids, *some* people are assholes, *some* people are cool, no matter what race they are, group membership they have, or music they listen to. Half the problems on this list come from broad sweeping generalizations. It would be cool if people could keep in line during the shows, though: whether they be Nazis, SHARPS, jocks, punks, metalheads, or those rowdy fuggin' computer geeks... -OK, now that I sound like a complete fuggin' Nazi, let me address WICKEDKINGWICKER. (Sorry if I fuct up yer name.) The Werewolves blew!!! Good idea, but didn't work for shit. Himmler lied about they're progress to his boss and when it came down to the test, they didn't stop shit. Also, I saw a documentary recently about the Russians' search for Uncle Adolf in the war's last days, and when they did find him, they autopsied his body and found he only had *one* testicle. Hitler was cruisin' the uni-ball!!!!! "Oh, Eva!!!..." -NEIL: Hey, I tried to write politely to Torch666 because I didn't want to give him any attention on the Bible. I was thinking, Hey, maybe this kid has been living in a cave or something, or maybe he's a jack-ass trying to get us riled up. My guess is he/she got their rocks off... -German Tri-color Patch on Glenn's Arm: This is just based on what I've heard about Glennard, but as I understand it, he's very interested in WWI and WWII, and he's also, as some of my Chicano friends would say, "down for La Raza." But it's his "raza" (think about, it- it has an English cognate) that he's down for... -BIBLE T-shirt: Hey, I'm really fucking touched by all of you who took the time to comment on my post about the shirt with CG on the computer. Aw, fuck, I'm dripping on my keyboard. Anyway, sincerely, thank you for the "feedback." (I'm taking summer school COMM classes.) Now one of you talented bastards needs to draw it up!!!!!!!!!!!!! -TUCSON, AZ MISFITS SHOW: OK, now for the most important part of this post. I can't wait 'til the 14 of August. Should be slick. And if you fellas (Da Band) reads this, I will be there with a shit-eatin' grin (I'm pretty sure it'll be a first). I'm gonna try to get a crew of big crazy muthafuggaz to go. I'll be the small one in their midst. Anyway, I'm figuring y'all will have your own nice clean hotel rooms somewhere downtown, but if you want to relive the old days, I have my own place and the floor isn't too uncomfortable. :) And if any of you kids reading this are in Tucson, or will be for the show in August, I'll pray for your sanity. Oh yeah, throw me an e-mail, too. We can hide from the sun's scrutiny during the day in my dungeon and emerge as the ghouls we are that night... ON A FINAL NOTE, I'm hoping I don't get too many flames from y'all. I'm thinking a bunch of you way too sensitive fiends are going to bitch me out and call me a Nazi. Oh well, you can only do so much for the ignorant and narrow-minded...

Well, I am elated to announce that I attended the Man Or God/Anthrax/MISFITS show in Corpus Christi, TX on June 12. My sister scored one of Doyle's armbands and I got an autograph and a kiss from the one and Only, Jerry. IT WAS AMAZING! (The MISFITS show, of course) Anthrax was even ok, except that they whined during the whole second half of their performance because someone stole their microphone ("We're gonna stop playing if we don't get our mic back. It's a shame for one prick to ruin the show for everybody." Blah, Blah, Blah). They sounded like elementary school teachers. What wienies! Anyway, as a die-hard MISFITS fan, I think the new lineup with Michael Graves is GRRRREAT!!! I whole-heartedly approve of him as a singer and performer (He wears his devilock well) and I think he is a perfectly acceptable replacement for Glenn Danzig. The vintage MISFITS tunes were skillfully resurrected and mastered live. The new songs promise a true return to the MISFITS horror rock that we all know and love. Jerry Only and Doyle are better than ever and play like the true living spook legends that they are. To those of you who have the vile, stinking gall to complain about the resurrection ("They didn't play where I wanted them to." or "The drums were off." or "Michael Graves jumped into the crowd and kicked my wussy little ass." or whatever): WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?!? After thirteen years of an agonizing void, the MISFITS are alive and well!!! Thank your lucky stars, quit your bitchin', and appreciate it. To those of you who haven't seen them live on the new tour yet, PLEASE DO. And buy a tour shirt while you're there, they're beautiful with a colorful version of Earth A.D. on the front. I'll go out on a limb and guarantee that you'll love the show if you're a true MISFITS fan. It'll change your life. It sure as hell changed mine.

I read somewhere (in an actual history book...some of you guys should try it) that the total estimated dead during WWII was around 50 million (maybe that's for Europe only though...can't remember) ...anyway, Catholics were not systematically killed like jews, gays, and gypsies were.

I saw The Fits in Rochester a few weeks ago, (my internet was down).. It was fucking amazing. They came out and fucking ripped into halloween. I was right at the front of the stagem and the stage was like 2 feet tall so I was basically half on the stage. And let me say this,.. David Arthur Aufox is a fucking idiot!!!!!!!!! His message regarding how the Misifts suck and graves suck was stupid. It is absolutely wrong!!!!!! Graves waas fucking Great..... He jumped down to me in TV Casualty and let me sing the please dont feed my television screen verse and in 20 eyes he jumped down to me again and let me sing like half of fucking 20 eyes. It was fucking great. Graves does add his own touch to the fits... he was jumping trying to hang off these things on the celing but he kept Missing and falling into the crowd... I thought Graves was great... Chuds set was amazing witht hose huge spikes... Doyle broke a string or 2 in the first 20 seconds of Halloween. Only seemed really excited to beack out there. After the show Only ran over to the place where they sold shit and got behind the counter and started selling shirts!!!!! That was cool I bought one from him, talked to him for a minute got an autographed and went looking for Graves. I didnt get graves but got everyone else. The show was great. The Misifits are definetely back. now I just can't wait to see them again! So everyone fuckin ruled and anyone hwo says they dont rule now is a waste of carbon... MISFITS RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ------------------------------ From: ChristoTer@aol.com Date: Sun, 16 Jun 1996 12:06:52 -0400 Subject: Auction In an attempt for me to get more funds... I am auctioning off a Max's Xmas t-shirt. X-tra large. Autographed by Jerry Only and Doyle. I don't expect too much for this, so if you want this, don't be intimidated to give me a offer. I'll stop taking bids on the 20th. Jay---Mr. Pink! David, I think...Mr. Punk rock. I also find some of the negative comments about us fans of metal to be a bit childish. We are not all two years old here. Maybe we should start acting like it. I personally feel that this guy's immaturity gives all you punk rock people a bad name.... Also, I feel that Hellhound and myself are both not assholes....gee there's a certain nice guy who happens to run this mailing list and a nice Web Page who is an Anthrax fan. Do you thing that he's an asshole? You listen to this guy and wonder why the Glen Benton type wants to kill everyone with green hair. I also find this interesting....I'll bet that if someone comes out and insults a homosexual or a black man for being what they are, you'd jump on that person for being a homophobe/bigot. But, gee Mr. Hyprocrite can insult a whole group of people for the music they listen to. Why am I wasting my time responding to this jerk off? I'll stop right now. Holocaust---for some reason 12 million people is sticking out as the figure--not that matters. It was a lot. Also, werewolf brigades? Whoa. Yeah, that doctor--Heidegger, I think--was a strange fellow (personally, if you want to point the blame...look at Goebbles just as much as Hitler). He actually did a number of experiments with cloning, both in Germany and in Argentina after he split with his Nazi buddies and with the help of the US government......None of this belongs in the Bible though, I just think it's fascinating... Chicago security----these guys are doing their jobs. That's my opinion. I've been to many Chicago shows and never once had a bad experience. GUESS WHY!!! When a security guard wants to grab a crowd surfer, I'll help him grab him/push him away. When he's standing up on the bar and is about to fall, I'll grab onto him and help him get down. When he does something as insignificant as ask me what time it is, I'll answer him! This is common politeness, in my opinion. Of course, no one else seems to feel this way. I've seen people attack Chicago security, spit on them, and knock them off the barrier when they're trying to push crowd surfers away from the stage. Gee, I wonder why they're dicks. Actually, I think a lot of them are good guys----I was at the Fight show last summer....the security guard offered to hold my glasses--I had a case and everything, but he offered and I accepted--half way through the show he hands me and one of my friends a bottle of water, and he was constantly making sure that we were all doing okay. Just because they have a shirt that says "security" doesn't make them a subhuman asshole that is below you. Also, it seems not many people are familiar with Web Search Engines. Go into http://www.yahoo.com You can type in a word and it searches the Web for possible matches. There's a couple new Danzig pages around, so go into Yahoo, type in Danzig and boom--instant links! This should work with anything you're into....whether it's Hitler, porn, or Goethe. Sorry for the length...

When you support a person who does scummy things to others - you are also supporting the scummy shit they do, not just their art. You are saying 'I approve of your actions', in their mind. You are also giving them the money they need to further their wrongdoing. Hitler didn't start off by killing Jews. Jeffrey Dahmer tortured animals for years before he went after people. Evil is as evil does. Little evils can become BIG evils. Do you actually like the fact that THE MISFITS have fucked me out of my share of all that money. Do you approve of someone going to the press and lying about someone, with the sole intent of destroying their character? Would you approve of someone doing it to you?

Glenn's Italian! Back in 77 - 80, the nazi thing was considered cool - for shock effect. It was started by the RAMONES - a Jewish band from Queens. It was something to scare our parents. I knew lots of Jewish punks that wore swastikas back then. After awhile, certain clueless idiots (metalheads?) got the wrong idea, and started to take it seriously -so it was stopped. >2) in the picture where you can see glenn and jerry's backs jerry has >"misfits" painted above a skull, under the skull he has "undead" painted on >there. very interesting. Jerry has mentioned that before. The two of us had discussed the fact that we'd both always wanted to have a band that was a bit poppier than THE MISFITS, and call it THE UNDEAD. In fact, in the summer of '79 while at Jerry's father's house, we seriously talked about it. His idea was to 'fake' our own deaths, and come back a year later . . . as THE UNDEAD. I figured that, since he already had THE MISFITS, there'd be no reason why I couldn't go on and use a name that I'd always wanted to use since 1972. Back in those days no one wanted to be in a band called THE UNDEAD. So now, I'm accused of 'stealing' his name. >Date: Wed, 12 Jun 1996 12:52:50 -0400 >Subject: Re: Misfits Bible, #190 >From: Adrock@usa.pipeline.com (Brent Williamson) > >"Hitler was a wonderful, great >guy", right?

They would shove every >can of hair spray that you had up your ass. If you want to dis the Misfits >do it on the Poison bible that you created,not here. For one thing; What I say about THE MISFITS, I don't say behind their backs. Jerry has denied saying every slanderous quote about me that has been printed. He'd rather throw interviewers (who think he's their friend) to the wolves if a lawsuit were to come out of his comments, rather than BEING A MAN and admitting his mistakes. He says UGLY THINGS made up all those things about me being late and drunk, and being a shitty guitar player. He says AL RYAN made up the whole story about me stealing THE UNDEAD name from him. They've had more than one chance to fuck me up if they wanted to. I was alone most of the time at the BOX SET signing. I was alone at the CHILLER THEATER convention. If they want to discuss the money, they've had more than enough opportunity to do so. My mailing list is not another bible. I'm not about to rip off Marks idea. He does a phenomenal job, and I don't know how the fuck he keeps up with it all. Lots of coffee, I suppose. The UNDEAD / TIMES SQUARE mailing list is just that, A mailing list. When there is any news or updates with either of my bands, I'll be able to let anyone who's interested know right away. To call it a "POISON bible" is to infer that I'm trying to damage Jerry's "spotless" reputation. Wrong! I'm just trying to set the record straight. If there's been any 'poisoning' it's been against me. And the proof is in the attitude of your response, because you seem to automatically think that jerry = good; bobby = bad; and that you'd make a comment as extreme as suggesting shoving a can of hairspray up my ass. >From: The Mocellas >Subject: bobby....uhh >Date: Wed, 12 Jun 1996 21:43:08 -0400 >hi guys. >i just had to comment on what BOBBY S. said last issue concerning xxxippy's >post. WHAT THE FUCK? uh....how can you compare stealing money to the MASS >MURDER OF GERMANY'S JEWISH POPULATION? Did Hitler start off murdering people? No. He was a scumbag, but because people thought he was doing good things for Germany, they were willing to look the other way. After all, they weren't Jewish. A thief is a thief. And a thief is a criminal. I'm not saying that what they did to me was anywhere near what Hitler did to the world. Only an idiot could make that assumption. Someone who rips me off has the potential to rip you off too. What're you gonna say, "I wasn't Bobby Steele, so I said nothing. Now they've ripped me off, but there's no one else to turn to"? I've never once said that you shouldn't like the MISFITS, but public opinion goes a long way. Believe it or not; I've met people that have said they will not buy any MISFITS records or go to any shows until I get paid. Do you know what that would do if more people had that kind of character? If it became clear to Jerry that he would have more people going to shows and buying records if he did the right thing - he'd pay me yesterday. >besides, you said that john wayne gacy should not be forgiven for his crimes >because he painted well. no shit. but if you are subjectively analyzing HIS >ART, it does not FUCKING MATTER what he did.

Yeah. He made a lot of money off his paintings, too. HE GOT SCREWED. HE NEVER MURDERED ANYONE. How can you compare a gentle, caring person like Van Gogh to murderers like Hitler and Gacy. He wasn't a fuck up. He suffered from a severe mental imbalance, and spent time in at least one mental institution. One of his paintings was of the view from his room at that institution. His paintings look the way they do because his illness fucked up his vision and that was the way things looked to him. He said he was born twice. As a kid, his parents took him, regularly, to the grave of their first son, Vincent, who died a year before he was born. Think about how that fucked his mind up. >geez.

I know nazis. Like you said they're cowards. I don't know how many roadies the MISFITS have with them, but between all of them, and the club security - they could've done something other than give the nazis the power to end an otherwise good show. A few years back, when I was touring solo; I walked into a small club in Muskegon, MI to check out the opening band. of the 100 or so people there, at least half were wearing swastikas. Nazis don't like cripples ( cripples are one of the primary targets of neo-nazis in germany). They consider us to be inferior. I felt uncomfortable as it was, since this was gonna be the first gig of my solo tour. So, I walked up to the biggest one there - and ripped off his swastika from the from of his hat. Then I proceeded to walk around the place, ripping swastikas off of every kid in there. It was a foolhardy move, but the worst thing that happened from it was that a girl wrote to Maximum R & R and said that I knocked her down and acted like a 'rockstar'. So, you see; if a lone, 130lb GIMP can stand up to about 50 nazis in a club . . . They don't have to beat up ANYONE. Period. They will get sued. And if their victims are minors - they'll go to jail - and meet lots of big, horny nazis. Especially for that roadie at the Chicago show. If he really did kick that kid in the face after he was being held - well it's his conscience. I don't even know if this is all true, or if it fits into the "I saw OZZIE bite the head off a bat" category. Sometimes people think they see something, because they want to. ------------------------------ From: MR JOSEPH F MARINO Date: Sun, 16 Jun 1996 14:59:35, -0500 Subject: Just some shit... >From: Feb31959@aol.com >Date: Wed, 12 Jun 1996 16:56:50 -0400 >Subject: the "new" misfits >that jerry only character has got to go, hes sixty years old for god's sake, and >bobby steal? he looked like some football player. First of all, maybe you should get your facts straight before you criticize. The guitarist that you referred to as looking like a football player is Doyle, not Bobby Steele. And Jerry is hardly sixty but I'm sure you were just exaggerating, right? Yeah, anyway. Ok just gotta reply to Bobby Steele from issue #190. Where you at the Allentown show? I didn't think so. What is it about you...hold a grudge, jealous, pissed...sounds like you're mad that you weren't included. What's a matter? No one wants to play wif you? Boo Hoo. Anyway I want to finish by shouting out to a few people who seem to make sense and have their heads on straight...Justin, Mark , Xxiippyy, Adrock, Steven Langerholc, The Mocellas, "Jay P.", WiCkEdKiNgWiCkEr, MR ERIK M LINDBERG, Hybrid Child...and there are many more. Just didn't want my post to be all negative so I thought I'd end on a positive note. Everyone else just seems to flame the shit out of everyone and then jet. I think we need some more unity.

Wow do you ghouls have nothing to say ? Or do you wait till you find somthing that you can either flame or complain about? I wont restate the question cause it sickens me to have to repeat. You talk about how lame the bible is and then you have nothing to say except respond to some retarded post. And even if this guys torch666 is late, well take it upon yourself to help the guy out. But the majority of you choose to just ridicule theguy! Pretty dumb if you ask me. And for those of you who dont like long posts, screw you. Who says that there must be a limit, I mean somtimes you need to make sur e that you quote the person exactly so that they can not deny their own stupidty. For dorian M. petre: all skinheads suck, nazi or not. They all just a bunch a mindless ass holes who are so lonely they must associate themselves with a group. That is why they are all together cuz they are such a bunch of losers that if one gets in a fight then all get in, and that is for both sharps and nazis. They are all the same to me. I mean why even give your self a name like sharps, why not just be somone who has no hair? The only sharps I recognize is a non-alcoholic brew. later hybrid child ------------------------------ From: MR ERIK M LINDBERG Date: Sun, 16 Jun 1996 22:48:23, -0500 Subject: Bible 191 Wow, I'm getting like the people who have been here forever.

The version on Walk Among Us is good. That is because all hell breaks loose was recorded for WAU, and the WAU takes are on a different lable. So the box set is really the Plan 9& Caroline box set. There are demos out there though. And were not recieved by the band. They are the Fairlawn Demos, they are missing. On these demos there is a version of all hell breaks loose and the keyboard nike which can be found on the page, and a really creepy devils whorehouse. You can find these demos on the Vampira CD boot. If you need a copy of them drop me a line.

The reason is that I'm sure most of you have noticed that when you go to #misfits half the time nobody is there and the most you ever get is around 5 users. Well after I came up with the idea and passed it on to Mark and he thought it would be good, it was decided to go ahead and set this thing up. Now as for the times. It was decided that most of you don't get on the Mirc till late night, so down below is the times listed for most areas. Midnight in the eastern time zone. 11:00pm in the central time zone. 10:00pm in the mountain time zone. 9:00pm in the Pacific time zone. This will only work with the help from everyone. So please try to show up if not at both times then at least one of them once a week. If any one has any questions feel free to email me. Thank You.

A while back I sent him a few bucks for a few of the Proedge rehearsals and he not only sent me all the Proedge rehearsals, but two live shows! Thankz again Chris! Second, I was looking in the Baltimore City Paper, and noticed an Advertisement for the Misfits playing at Hammerjacks, does anyone know if this is gonna be all ages, I don't think Hammerjacks has ever done an all ages show, but now would be a great time to start. Anyways, on the ad for the Misfits, there was a picture of the band, but it was an OLD picture, featuring Glenn. I doubt that the Misfits had anything to do with the ad but I think it really fucking sucks, it's obvious they are trying to fool people, (they being whoever made the ad) One more thing, I was at Reptilian Record in Fell's Point, and saw a CD by the band Texas is the Reason, anyone ever heard of em? Influenced by bullet or what? Thanks. ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 16 Jun 96 12:24:24 -0700 From: GREIG Subject: subscribe !!!!!!!

Subject: End Hello to all the fiends out in Bibleland- Let's see, i guess i have to tell you we are a little behind schedual on the getting all the designs to the web page for the voting. No big deal, this is how it will go down. On Wednesday June 19th, all designs for the main image of the t-shirt will be on the Misfits web page,(look in the news section and you will see the one marked bible t-shirt). Plus there will be a post in the bible for that day to tell you what to do in order to vote for your fave design. ***NO LAZY ASS GARBAGE THIS TIME, YOU WILL ONLY HAVE A LIMITED # OF DAYS TO VOTE. YOU DON'T GET YOUR VOTE IN, TO BAD SO SAD.*** So in simple terms if you want a Misfits Bible t-shirt with art you like and would be proud to wear, then you get your lazy ass to a computer and vote. Glad this makes sence to you!?! Also, if you are an artist and can whip an image together in two days you have till Tuesday night to get your work to Mark so it can have its place on the web page. And no more extentions, you guys have had a full week or more. Oh and if you think i'm being a bitch and i don't understand what it takes to create art from just a couple words. Well i guess four portfolios, the first volume of a limited edition art book, and a video news reel didn't come like manna from heaven or sitting around living the good life. Just like any of you i have been in school, working full time, and or interning full time to get what i have. So let's get this shirt on its way and done already!?! SEE YOU ON THE 19TH FOR THE VOTE!
