Jello Biafra - Butler University, 1987
This video of Jello doing his talky talk thing on a college campus in 1987 showed up on Dime a Dozen today, so I dl'd and then converted to m4v. I haven't watched it yet, so I can't speak to the contents. It's only 75 mins or so, tho, which means we're probably missing 80% of the talk.

Re: Jello Biafra - Butler University, 1987
I keep considering listening and then ponder whether it will annoy the hell out of me. I was a Dead Kennedy’s disciple at age fifteen and don’t know if I want to go back there, 1989 listening to No More Cocoons in the dark on my Walkman.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑25 Dec 2019, 9:32pmThis video of Jello doing his talky talk thing on a college campus in 1987 showed up on Dime a Dozen today, so I dl'd and then converted to m4v.

It's primarily No More Cocoons material, with a few comments related to the student newspaper. The two most striking things are how skinny he was and how painfully dated the references sound. It's a curiosity piece, maybe a bit of nostalgia.BostonBeaneater wrote: ↑31 Dec 2019, 1:43amI keep considering listening and then ponder whether it will annoy the hell out of me.

I'd think that after all these years he's achieved a stable and fairly comfortable income.BostonBeaneater wrote: ↑31 Dec 2019, 1:41pmI don't know what Jello's lifestyle is but he sure does look well fed.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑31 Dec 2019, 7:27amIt's primarily No More Cocoons material, with a few comments related to the student newspaper.

I believe he bought a house in the 80s in San Fran so he's automatically wealthy from that.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑31 Dec 2019, 2:06pmI'd think that after all these years he's achieved a stable and fairly comfortable income.BostonBeaneater wrote: ↑31 Dec 2019, 1:41pmI don't know what Jello's lifestyle is but he sure does look well fed.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑31 Dec 2019, 7:27amIt's primarily No More Cocoons material, with a few comments related to the student newspaper.

Get him!!!!
But seriously unless you sell that house in San Francisco it is just costing you although I suppose not paying SF area rents would be a win.

Re: Jello Biafra - Butler University, 1987
For anyone interested, Jello released an updates "Message From Our Sponsor" track on Bandcamp. If you like it, of course, I recommend tossing him a buck for the track but here it is for anyone who'd like to sample it (good for 7 days): https://send.firefox.com/download/16b5b ... YQGAYacleQ

Can't remember if posted this here ever (or anyone else), it's Jello Biafra and Eugene Chadbourne on a John Cage tribute album. For Witch Trials fans:

Yup, you did share that before, leading me to buy a copy of the album.

Re: Jello Biafra - Butler University, 1987
I'm listening to it again for the first time in a bit. Just given my interests, that's the standout track but it's all really good stuff. Real weird little disc.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑08 Feb 2024, 6:16pmYup, you did share that before, leading me to buy a copy of the album.

Oh that’s interesting. Annoyed I didn’t have that in college when I was doing weird avant- theatre pieces to annoy the Theatre Kids who really just wanted to sing songs from Rent.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑08 Feb 2024, 6:54pmYeah, it's a neat project.
