I Fought the Law (and I won) is about a corrupt cop, right? I remember hearing something like that.
It's about the Twinkie defense story. Dan White, a former San Francisco supervisor went in to City Hall and shot and killed Harvey Milk, the first openly gay city supervisor in San Francisco, and the mayor of San Francisco, George Moscone ("I blew George & Harvey's brains out with my six-gun"). He killed the mayor first then he went down the city supervisors offices, passing by Diane Feinstein (later mayor of SF, Jello's opponet in the 79 election, now senator of CA) on to find Harvey Milk and shoot and kill him too. When tried his attorneys used the defense that White's depression that lead to the assassination was because of him eating Twinkies ("Twinkies are the best friend I've ever had")
Other lines in the song are general police corruption stuff.

Jello is definately my hero. I wish I knew someone as cool as he is. "Vote for me or I'll kill myself." That pretty much sums it all up.
Anyway, my friend (and his dad) have heard of a large protest in DC on September 24, where Jello will be speaking for Operation Cease-Fire. I plan to go, and hopefully see him. Just thought I should put that out there.

Melvins as their own band are quite good if you like 'stoner rock'. In related news, Jello and Melvins will be releasing a second album which is a first for a side project he replaces the lead singer for and the second side project he's released mutiple albums with (Lard being the other). Although he did put out an EP with Mojo Nixon before the full album....
Has anyone listened to Muinty on the bay i've heard it has really bad sound quality is the correct or false?
I wouldn't say sound quality is poor, it is a live show so it's not going to be perfect, but I don't think it's a good showcasing of their live talent, I prefer their other live shows that are on bootlegs.

Jello Biafra and the Melvins second album came out Friday I have just heard. Read the page on AT it sounds like a great album and includes a reworked cover of California Uber Alles, entitled Kalifornia Uber Alles sung by the governator himself. The album is called Sieg Howdy. Haven't found it on soulseek yet.

The defence was that him eating so many Twinkies was proof that he was clinically depressed rather than the casue but it's still an idiotic defence.

It's Dog Bite, Sean was right.
And to Maverick. DK orginally broke up with the same reasons many bands break up, they got tired of each other and had some differences. Plus after the Frankenchrist trial they were all pretty bummed on music. Then shortly after the breakup came the whole Jello stole royalities and the band tried to sell songs to corporations drama that killed chances of them reuniting. If that had never happened, they'd probably be playing a reunion tour right now and maybe releasing an album about Bush, WTO, War in Iraq, etc.

Google to the rescue
Description of Yuppie Pricks
Not even Ronald Reagan's death could exterminate the tenacious 80s yuppie, who now seeks to exploit our precious punk heritage in the form of THE YUPPIE PRICKS from Austin, TX. Core members boast an impressively depressing resume of professional qualifications including divorce law, stock trading, and running a pharmaceutical company. High 80s literature like Bright Lights, Big City and American Psycho gave us a glimpse of the decadent, narcissistic yuppie lifestyle, but Broker's Banquet rubs our lower tax-bracket noses in mountains of cocaine and Wolfgang Puck pizzas. THE YUPPIE PRICKS' first album was an exclusive affair sold only on Wall Street and in country clubs: rumor has it that they bribed Biafra to release Broker's Banquet to get street cred. Sonically speaking, these PRICKS probably had a crash course in punk rock by listening to the DKs Give Me Convenience or Give Me Death on CD as they drove around in their Range Rovers, then somehow got a whiff of the NEW BOMB TURKS and FLESHIES. Gordon Gecko immortalized the 80s "Greed is Good" philosophy and G. W. Bush applied his yuppie shenaniganism to the American Presidency, but it took the Yuppie Pricks to collide this carnivorous mentality with punk. Recommended for fans of the UPPER CRUST!
They released their album on AT, Jello's label as you know.
And here is something after the info
THE YUPPIE PRICKS somehow tricked anti-yuppie pundit Jello Biafra into a guest appearance on the GETO BOYS parody "**** It Feels Good to Be a Yuppie."
So what you have is/ Jello.

So you been to school
For a year or two
And you know you've seen it all
In daddy's car
You know you'll go far
Back east your type don't crawl
You like Teddy Strazz
To parade your snazz
On your five grand stereo
So you can say you know
How the n'iggers feel cold
As they rot in some ... ghettos
It's time to taste what you most fear
Right the girl will not help you here
Brace yourself, my dear…
Brace yourself, my dear…
It's a holiday in Cambodia
It's tough, kid, but it's life
It's a holiday in Cambodia
Don't forget to pack a wife
You're a star-belly sneech
You suck like a leach
You want everyone to look like you
The women are always saying
...
...
Well you'll work harder
With a GUN in your back
And a bowl of rice a day
Work just
Like all the rest
...
Now you can go where people are one
Now you can go where they get things done
What you need, my son…
What you need, my son…
Is a holiday in Cambodia
Where people dress in black
A holiday in Cambodia
Where you'll kiss *** or crack
Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot,
Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot...
And it's a holiday in Cambodia
Where you'll do what you're told
A holiday in Cambodia
...

The bonus documentary DVD on the 25th anniversary of “Fresh Fruit” touches on the early days of Dead Kennedys and goes in-depth about the recording of the album, the songs that were featured on the album, the significance of the band itself and rare images of early pressings of the album, promotional campaigns, posters, early singles (45s), rare posters and articles written about the band. New interviews were conducted with Dead Kennedys’ guitarist East Bay Ray, bassist Klaus Flouride, Ninotchka (former lead-singer Jello Biafra’s ex-wife), Dead Kennedys first manager Chi Chi, Dirk Dirksen, promoter of the Mabuhay Gardens where the band got their start, Oliver DiCicco who engineered ‘Fresh Fruit’ and other Dead Kennedys albums, Iain McNay, co-founder of Cherry Red Records who owns “Fresh Fruit” as well respected music journalists, Johnny Angel, Eric Himmelsbach and Craig Rosen. Former lead-singer Jello Biafra was asked to participate and chose not to.

I didn't know if Ninotchka (whose name I just found out) was still married to him or not.

I really want a dvd of DK live.
DMPOs on Boardway is pretty good, so is Early Years. In God We Trust Inc The Lost Tapes has live footage too. I have a video recording of their show in Oregon, where they recorded Night of the Living Rednecks, and it's a really good show Jello wise. That whole show is funny, even just audio because Jello is making fun of Ray for breaking his string and having the change it off stage, then tune off stage because he is shy, at least Jello says.
Nick can probably answer this question: do any DK members have kids?
There is so little information about their personal lives out there. EBR might have some, he seems like the kind of guy who had settled down, not sure about any other members.

Although you can notice that jello isn't there...East bay ray, Klaus, and DH can still really play well and you get to hear all your favourites. When they first came on, the crowd was yelling "we want Jello!" and Klaus just said, "Oh come on!"

It's East Bay Ray, Klaus, and DH from the orginal lineup and Jeff Penalty is the new vocalist.
I've got the vynil 7" of "Nazi Punks **** Off", and I wore the armband into school. I was made to take it off. I mean what the ****?
Even though it's a crossed out swastika, it still contains the swastika and a lot of schools don't want that.
whose singer then? and why did he leave?
First part, look at the first quote. The band broke up after Bedtime for Democracy and Jello went to do his own things. They had a falling out over royalities, with Jello holding some back from the rest of the band, and Jello got mad at the rest of the band for trying to put one of their songs in a Levi's ad. When the rest of DK reformed, they asked Jello to come back and play with them, but he refused and they recruited Brandon Cruz from Dr. Know, who left and they got Jeff Penalty.

If they do that the writing will probably suck. Jello wrote all of their songs (except 3-4), including coming up with the tunes.
And I don't think Penalty tries to replicate Jello. I have a bootleg of the new DK, but I think it's Cruz, and they sound like bad DK covers.

Chicken**** Conformist is the worst song ever.
I like that song, not a favourite, but I still like it.
It was the first non-hit (ie California Uber Alles, Police Truck, etc.) DK song I heard.

Bedtime is my least favourite album, but I'm still warming up to it. I still hate Stars and Stripes of Corrupution, such a boring song.

Ahh. I kind of realized that I like most songs on Bedtime until the vocals come in. Sorry Jello :(.
And I used to really like Stars and Stripes, but now its... meh.

I don't know where you got that infro from but I'm pretty sure it's an early IRS pressing, some of which had the cover tinted orange with black lettering which wasn't approved by the band who got it changed back once they found out.

Plastic Surgery Disasters is a close second just because of Moon Over Marin.

I won't spend over $15 for a record, hence why I haven't bought the $30 copies of Frankenchrist + Poster I've seen. That's just unreasonable, even for my favourite record. I'm a bargainer at heart from years of going to toy and antique shows, so I like cheap stuff.

They're all different releases, and he was hoping to find the one with the orignal phallic poster that caused quite a bit of uproar.

Nick, can you explain the three copies of Frankenchrist?
Joe explained it, but I'll go more in detail.
One in the middle is the remaster reissue from Manifesto records. The two on the ends are Alternative Tentacles releases. I bought both hoping to get the poster, but it's only in the vinyl. But I ended up keeping them both because one is an orginial CD release and the other seems to be an AT reissue or just a different copy because the CD and back case are different then the other two.
And all my CDs and Vinyls are Manifesto releases unfortunely, except Bedtime which is an AT release. I'm hoping to get vinyl ATs soon.
I have Plastic Surgery Disasters and In God We Trust Inc as one album, so it's cool.
That's the only way to get it on CD. I don't like it like that, because PSD obviously ends with Moon Over Marin and even has the ghost from Christmas past talking again and it's just wrong for it to jump right into IGWTI.
sketchyjoe
12-30-2005, 05:02 PM
That and IGWTI should be before PSD.
Brain Toad
12-30-2005, 05:07 PM
That and IGWTI should be before PSD.
That too. I don't understand why they grouped them on CD, since Manifesto re-released IGWTI as a vinyl seperate from PSD.

not really, it's more 'B-Sides and other Rarities'. People always say it's their Best Of when there's only two actual singles on it (Holiday in Cambodia and California Uber Alles)
but Pull My Strings is hot.
