Former Misfits frontman Glenn Danzig is bringing his bloated carcass to the Trocodero Saturday, June 19th. Former Misfits guitarist Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein's new band will open up and features one time Misfits drummer Dr. Chudd. With this much Misfits blood in one room, one can only assume that they will play a couple of tunes together. However, you will have to sit through some shitty metal band (featuring members of Type O Negative), Gorgeous Frankenstein and Danzig's sets before you get to the encore where they will probably only play four or five 'Fits tunes. If you dig Danzig's solo work, this is probably worth it, but eh...in the last few years, Danzig has become a caricature of himself, looking more and more like Gene Simmons and less and less like the intimidating singer he was even 10 years ago. Plus, there is rarely a Danzig show these days that doesn't feature a buttload of the other Misfits' guys solo projects. The embarrassingly balding yet still devil locked Jerry Only is the only hold up from a full blown reunion and if he could just get over his retarded and misguided sense of self importance, we could get some proper classic sets instead of this abortion. Oh well. Just for kicks, watch Glenny Danzig get knocked the hell out in 2005 by a member of a band he promised, and then denied, an opening slot. Have fun, Fiends!
