Typical myopic crap from Mr. Biafra - I was 16 and on exchange in the US (94) when I begged my host father to drive me to his spoken word 'creative mindfuck'. After hearing Mr. Biafra basically cough in the same places as he does on the CD's I started looking elsewhere for information on what were/are extremely important issues. I'm really not surprised he feels like he's preaching to the converted at his shows, I'm sure the lack of devils advocacy made the show all totally useless. from the desk of Chris at July 22, 2003 11:10 AMWell, personally, I didn't know shit about shit until I started listening to Jello and reading Howard Zinn books. Further more, a rather conservative friend and I went to see one of his spoken word shows in Atlanta in 2002. After the show, my friend explained to me on the way back home that some of Jello's information was "spun", but for the most part, "very impressive for a liberal." There was also this drunken heckler from the bar screaming something to the effect of, "libertarian's rule!" Jello, after about the third scream, said, "Libertarians are republicans who smoke pot.. or democrats who love guns." The drunk heckler went on to say, "fuck you, Jello!" throughout the rest of the show. He even moved up to one of the front seats after intermission. I assume to intimidate. Meaning, from my experience, it isn't all "preaching to the choir." As for his routine. Well, umm.. that's exactly what it is, a routine. Duh.

Doesn't belong in the ring with the big boys. Him and Rollins would be a real good double-whiner-spoken-word toss off. By the way, I'm posting from Beijing and the hardcore is a'rockin!
