i'm in line with what tanjello said. although i'd like to think that jello, being one of the true supporters of free speech, would have asked me to clarify my 'boo' rather than sic mindless drones on someone who thought a little differently than the pack. hehehe

DK is one of my favorite punk bands, I absolutely adore them.

Favourite Songs: "Kill the Poor", "Let's Lynch the Landlord"
Favourite Album: "Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables"
Random Trivia: I don't have any that I can think of at the moment.

not being able to sell stuff he wrote on his own label is just plain wrong.

he left one of his shoes on the stage after i saw him. it was overflowing with cash when i left.

and i suppose i should clarify my quasi-booing hehehe. keep in mind i saw him after the big G8 meeting in quebec a few years ago (huge protests).

it was at the end of his DMSO (sp?) deal. where he kind of scats along and snaps his finger about this drug which is absorbed through the skin which acts as a transport for another medicine. his main example was adding a drop of lemon juice to the liquid then dipping your fingertip into the mix, you'd then have the sensation of having just tasted lemon juice. he then went on to 'wonder' just what would happen in a situation like in quebec city if say, someone added a little LSD to the DMSO mix and just rubbed a little bit under the handles of every door on every cop car. then he kind of stood there and waited for the reaction, and everyone cheered and applauded.

even i got caught up in the moment, but as soon as my hands hit together it dawned on me as to just how bad of an idea that truly was and i looked over to my friend and he was thinking the same deal. i still wonder if jello is just waiting for someone to call him on that one, to find someone with the balls to actually stand up and say 'WOAH! that's a bad idea - first off you're wasting perfectly good LSD on cops, secondly it would be a bloodbath, and thirdly, laxatives would be WAY funnier'

The Dead Kennedys are great. Not my favorite punk band, but good none the less. The only album I have of theirs is Plastic Surgery Disasters. Like mentioned before, Jello has a voice that takes some getting used to, but I listen to other bands that are like that (Modest Mouse, Prick, etc..,).

Its weird because alot of the songs remind me of more modern songs or band styles, but I guess its possibly just their influence. For example, listen to DK's "Terminal Preppie" and then listen to some Mr. Bungle (more specifically songs like "My Ass is on Fire") and tell me the horn parts dont seem very similar in style. Maybe its just me.

fuck ya man dk!

who DOESNT like the dk, honestly.

I haven't heard much of the Dead Kennedys, but I have heard Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables and Give Me Convenience Or Give Me Death.

My favourite songs from what I've heard are Let's Lynch The Landlord and Too Drunk To Fuck.

And they've got some good lyrics as well.

Bedtime for democracy was another great album. Rambozo the clown, take this job and shove it.... excellent tunes!!

The first time I ever heard the Dead Kennedy's I was six years old and my brother had gotten the In God We Trust Inc. CD with Plastic Surgery Disasters and Virus EP. I absolutely adored two songs, Winnebago Warrior and Forest Fire (mostly because of the line "see the hamster runrunrunrunrunrunrunrunrun from the fire") I used to sing Winnebago Warrior all the time.
Recently (I'm not six anymore), I found the album laying around my room cause he left a lot of stuff there when he moved out after high school and I listened to it and it brought back so many good memories of my deranged childhood.

Anyway, that's the only stuff I've ever heard from them, but it's sweet and I love it a lot.
Any suggestions for albums to move to from there? Preferrably something quite similar so it's not a huge leap into unknown territory.

Oh oh oh!

Alright, thank you! I'm gonna go out and get that once I get some money.

holiday in cambodia is fucking awesome
