Bad Religion unlikely to tour extensively in early 2008

Contributed by alex101. Posted by aubin on Friday, December 7, 2007 at 4:00 PM (EST)

It looks like the recently announced Bad Religion dates are unlikely to stretch into a full tour. Some astute readers of The Bad Religion Page found frontman Greg Graffin's course load and it looks like the good Professor will be quite busy teaching through the Winter semester at UCLA.

Dr.Graffin is a Life Sciences professor at the university, having received his Ph.D. from Cornell University.

Already got my tix to the HOB show in Hollywood so no worries on my part. Can Greg be UCLA's new football coach, please?

that would be so cool to have him as a professor. maybe he could teach me a better technique to jerk off.

veganboyjosh (December 7, 2007)

i think that's an online class...you can take it from the priv---comfort of your own home...

DeathFromAbove (December 7, 2007)

is the prerequisite for the class a webcam and an under age girl?

iconoclast (December 7, 2007)

Nameless (December 7, 2007)

For real. I like that the one guy who was actually critiquing him, only liked his glasses. It made me laugh.

Not you since you can barely spell.

AphasiacIIC (December 7, 2007)

im actually taking him next quarter. im not even a BR fan but hopefully his teaching isnt as shitty as his songwriting

and UCLA has QUARTERS not SEMESTERS

dX927 (December 7, 2007)

And here's proof that UCLA will accept any idiot into their school.

AphasiacIIC (December 7, 2007)

hahahaha!!!!

Nick_V (December 7, 2007)

I laughed too.

patman (December 7, 2007)

i lol'd

maybe you should pick up the lyrics before saying that. either that or stop the ecstacy while reading.

Trauma16 (December 7, 2007)

Well, he can do little 4 day tours from saturday through tuesday.

Evo (December 7, 2007)

haha my bro is in his class

skaboom (December 7, 2007)

I imagine it gets tiresome when his class is constantly filled up with BR fans, insead of people who are genuinely interested in whatever it is he is teaching.

AphasiacIIC (December 7, 2007)

its LS1, thats not gonna happen

the_other_scott (December 7, 2007)

when i was in sixth grade, Recipe for Hate came out and i bought that shit on tape. i sang along to every word. and i didn't know what any of them meant. i still, at 24 and a college graduate, don't think i could handle a class that he taught. and i love bad religion.

jetblackdave (December 7, 2007)

I like to think that BR fans like to learn about all kinds of stuff, especially science. But hey, maybe they just listen for the hooks and don't care about bettering themselves and the world.

Nameless (December 7, 2007)

Not when it's a general Ed. course.

MYSTERY (December 7, 2007)

Ph.D's are so punk rock.

thomas7155 (December 7, 2007)

Milo Auckerman has one.

jacknife737 (December 8, 2007)

and Dexter Holland almost has his....

TheMike (December 8, 2007)

I misread that and thought it said "and Dexter Holland has tits".

marvtastic (December 7, 2007)

sooo glad I saw them when they last came thru. was bad religion's first show EVER in the state of Kentucky.

jetblackdave (December 7, 2007)

and hopefully the last... who tours in Kentucky?

j/k I'm sure it's a fine state...

... for me to poop on!

sweetfracture (December 7, 2007)

looks like he only lectures 1 day a week, i wouldn't call that "quite busy"

punk_rawk_show (December 7, 2007)

Glad i got to see them just a few months ago then

Nameless (December 7, 2007)

Hey! I'm taking Life Science next quarter...

... at UC Irvine. Hooray for me!

And, that doesn't mean that there won't be a full tour. It just means it'll have to wait until after March 21st, when term ends.

killabot (December 8, 2007)

i saw them live at perth, oz this year and i shouted UCLA rocks! (some of mates go there) and he shouted back "at least someone here knows i have a 2nd job (add laughter)"

cpp_ (December 8, 2007)

Awww what the fuck, they totally skipped Canada since new maps of hell came out.

Salvador (December 9, 2007)

They came thru Milwaukee...but it wasn't a good time to see them.
