MISFITS 30th anniversary tour
The Misfits are headed out on a 30th anniversary tour of the US (and Toronto) following their current dates in the UK. As previously reported the band
is touring there alongside the Briefs. The anniversary tour kicks off on October 12th in Springfield, VA. Click below for the dates.
The present day Misfits are are of course centered around bassist Jerry Only backed by former Black Flag members Dez Cadena and Robo.
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

It's not the Misfits. Jerry sucks at the full time singing gig. It's a old timers all star band playing Misfit songs.

I saw them a few times with Graves and enjoyed it, as I like those two albums. I also saw them with Zoli from Ignite on vocals because Graves and
Chud quit in the middle of a tour. I'm not paying to see Jerry's sad embarassment of a band now.
I recall the first time I saw them with Graves. I only went because Sheer Terror was supposed to be one of the opening bands. Too bad ST broke up
and nobody told me. I showed up and almost beat the shit out of the guy at the door when he told ST wasn't playing. Instead it was Sardonica and the
Misfits. Fucking pissed me off.

"wang-a-thon"
add that to the 'memorable lines' thread.

Geez. Why don't they call the band... Oh, I don't know... Braineaters, and play Misfits and Black Flag songs the way FVK(another line up of old time
hardcore all-stars) plays Bad Brains and Cro-Mags tunes.

they need to just reunite. Give those who want to see it a show and then call it a day. This milking of REUNION when it not a REUNION thing is for the
birds.

Ive seen this version of the Misfits and as fun as it is to hear the songs, its kind of sad. I think its really to bad that the 30th anniversary is
going to be celebrated with this line up.

Toronto promoter is running a "battle of the bands" for openers to the show there, so if your in the area go battle it out for the honour of opening
for washed up punk celebs lol.
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

Sounds like one of the promoters out here. Bands usually have to pay to enter those, so he makes a couple grand off the opening bands paying to play
and has more money in pocket.

the group currently calling themselves the misfits is of no interest to me.
don't know why, but for some reason, i even liked them better when graves was in the band.
i think when doyle and jerry fell out, that was it for me.
i've always thought of a band's vocalist as it's central figure, so doyle popping up on that danzig tour last year or whenever was the closest thing
to the real deal in years. hell, glenn singing any misfits song with any band behind him works for me!
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Exactly, even if Glenn is a total ass cave.

I back this statement. I would dig the new albums with Graves if Jerry had just changed the name. But the fact that they have the nuts to call it The
Misfits pisses me off.

Theres not enough merchandising money in a band called Braineaters vs a band called THE MISFITS

i was dying to go to the black flag reunion in LA a few years back. glad i didn't as the reviews were pretty harsh for it. like pre-recorded bass and
drums and shit. that being said i'd certainly take any black flag table scraps i could get my hands on if i lived close by but not for the fortune it
would have cost me to go to that. one of the first punk bands i got into and hell of a lot of years later i love 'em just as much.
*as for the misfits thing give it up. i saw them on that first reunion tour, wasn't bad but certainly wasn't the misfits. i'd still go see a danzig
led reunion in a second but that's not gonna happen.

fire, but I?m just not close enough to get the job done.? George Carlin
