if someone gave me tickets i'd go.

RetiredAt21 10-29-2005 12:33 PM

Getting the tickets for free is the only way I would go. Seeing Jerry butcher old Misfits songs isn't worth the money.

blackflagfiend 10-29-2005 01:50 PM

when are they coming to dc again

RetiredAt21 10-29-2005 02:11 PM

They are touring constantly, so probably soon. I could be wrong though.

Jerry made a huge error when he tried to continue the misfits after Danzig left.

[QUOTE=nobody's hero999]Hey the new misfits are coming to my city, and i know Danzig wont be there, but is the show still worth seeing?[/QUOTE]
No. I saw them and left after 4 songs. They played my favourite song "Astro Zombies" as I was leaving, I nearly cried. Worst gig I've ever seen.

I think Graves is the best singer they've ever had.

misfitsfan1990 10-31-2005 03:00 AM

I would have said no dont go see the new misfits but after sitting down and really listning to them i thought "yeah i like these guys, its not what im used to but hell why not" and thats what i think you "haters" should take time to do because hey sometimes change is good! although i dont aggree that graves was the best lead singer. Danzigs haunting voice brought many greats to life :)

ps: im still not completely happy with jerry as lead singer but meh what ya gonna do.

[QUOTE=whiteminority]Why? That's a waste of money to watch Jerry Only try to milk you for all the cash he can get with crappy songs that the his version has put out.[/QUOTE]


they came to portland i didnt want to go i dont like the band after danzig left them and walk among us is my fav misfits cd

blackflagfiend 10-31-2005 09:30 PM

danzig>>>>>>>jerry>graves

i like jerry being singer better than gaves because he was an orginal member. If jerry only wanted to make a band, he shouldntve of brought back the misfits after 13 years with a totally new singer who had nothing to do with them in the first place. If jerry just made that band and called them by a different name, i probably would give Graves more respect and try tolisten to their new crap. end discussion/

DrGolovaCroxby 10-31-2005 11:19 PM

[QUOTE=shamed-angel]I think Graves is the best singer they've ever had.[/QUOTE]

i'm not saying he's a bad singer, but the should have changed the name after danzig left. they play different music, with a different group of musicians, but keep the same name. that's st00pid.

misfitsfan1990 11-01-2005 05:18 AM

hey you guys need to listen to project 1950 then make your desicion as i just got it and it was mega good and if you have already heard it there is nothing more i can do to convince you they are still sheer musical genius :)

Dust Junky 11-01-2005 05:23 AM

I just listened to a live concert of the Misfits doing Ramone covers and it was really bad quality =[ I was looking forward to it aswel.

Yeah i got to admit the ramone covers suck and i usually like most misfits material. plus live cd's never usually are great quality so Ramones covers + live= bad idea

oh and can someone tell me when they will next be in the U.K

because "covering" a bunch of 50's pop songs requires a lot of "musical genius".

Too ever done. Their guitars sounded like metallica

Skidmark Steve 11-01-2005 11:44 AM

ok ok. Halloweens over, we can shut down the Misfits thread until next year.

Steerpike 11-01-2005 11:48 AM

I wonder how many people bashing Graves are only doing it to sound more tr00 and l33t.

DrGolovaCroxby 11-01-2005 12:28 PM

[QUOTE=Steerpike]I wonder how many people bashing Graves are only doing it to sound more tr00 and l33t.[/QUOTE]

and i wonder how many just think that he didn't fit the band and didn't possess the songwriting skills that danzig had.

Steerpike 11-01-2005 12:35 PM

I think people over-glorify Danzig. The Misfits was his first band. Personally, I thought he did his best work in Samhain and his solo career.

To tell you the truth, it seems most people just wave Graves off because they can't come to terms with the fact that Danzig moved on to bigger projects. They don't [i]want[/i] to enjoy Graves-era Misfits, so they completely overlook every positive quality of those albums.

American Psycho was fantastic and I'll never believe otherwise. It's true, people don't want to like Graves.

RetiredAt21 11-01-2005 03:06 PM

I liked Famous Monsters better. I think Danzig's best work was in Samhain.

blackflagfiend 11-01-2005 03:18 PM

Danzigs music was more organized and mature in samhain,true. Your also probably right that Graves is also very talented too and we should take the time to listen to the albums he made with the misfits, but i just dont like the concept of those albums. The misfits are now more metal than they are punk but they are not a crossover band either (like D.R.I.). they reunited for money and they got even more commercial success than they did when danzig was in the band, thus making them sellouts thus making me avoid the newfits. all in all, i dont HATe their new music, i just hate the concept of it
