Why?

DrGunn (October 12, 2009)

i liked them in high school, but now when i hear them i think they sound rather silly and jello's sanctimoniousness is particularly annoying.

RRR (October 12, 2009)

The 80's Punk band M.I.A. is playing The 30th Anniversary bash as well!

aggropaul (October 12, 2009)

MattRamone (October 12, 2009)

oopsie that was meant as a reply

YourWifesBoyfriend (October 12, 2009)

10 bucks says Jello closed his eyes and spun a globe to decide what the other country to tour in would be. Spain seems a bit of a random choice.

miniblindbandit (October 12, 2009)

LushJ (October 12, 2009)

Yes, the 3 S.F dates are part of the 30th Anniversary celebration @ the Great American Music Hall.

Bands include M.I.A. (the hardcore band, not the UK rapper), Alice Donut, Victims Family, Citizen Fish, Star Fucking Hipsters, Munly, Ludicra, and many more. Seriously, should be epic!

M.I.A. will have the original Bass Player for the 1st time in over 20 years. Paul Schwartz!

Apeman_On_The_Moon (October 12, 2009)

His band name and album name both reference current events, he must be aware of world issues.

jercjast (October 12, 2009)

They are also playing in Dallas Thursday the 29th at the Prophet Bar. I'm going to go.

LP & iTunes available a week early. HYPE!

Yossarian (October 13, 2009)

I always thought it was kinda douchey when an already established musician starts a new band and feels the need to put his name out front, Jello Biafra and the Guantanamo School of Medicine, Lars Frederickson and the Bastards, Duane Peters and the Hunns...I just don't get it....

Exception being Chris Wollard and the Ship Thieves because that man can do now wrong
