i hate to be an asshole, what with it being christmas and all, but i have to say something...... i just want there to be a permanant record of my views on EBN. i've seen so many people post amazing reviews of their shows, and i just don't understand what's wrong with you people. i've seen them twice and let me tell you, if you haven't had a chance to catch them you're not missing a goddamn thing. they come out, there are lots of flashing lights and tv's and a really ugly guy shouting into a bullhorn. they're interesting for ... oh i don't..... maybe three minutes... tops. then the guy just keeps shouting and his podium keeps spinning and nothing else happens. wow. it eventually becomes very irritating. the people who like this crap should get out more. go see a real show. this shit was tired in the late eighties when consolidated did it. it's just a high tech version of jello biafra. there's nothing good you can say about these guys, so if i've left anything out feel free to challenge my opinion, so that i can try my best to prove you wrong.

Sure, Consolidated did it and Jello did it. Who cares? It's still more entertaining to watch than, say, 90 minutes of ambient music with a light show, IMHO. Something good to say? EBN's video editing is great, the music is great, he has a better sense of humor than consolidated did, he's more over-the-top than they were, and Jack Dangers had his hand in the latest album. Enough for me. -H- ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Howard Berkey, PP-ASEL, DoD #0944 howard@sirius.com http://www.sirius.com/~howard hberkey@ten.net

yah, it's just a passing fancy and it gets annoying esp. the film keeps looping on+on+on. Cool gadget but one of the monitor went blackout towards the grand finale ;) What's a jello biafra? some kind of pyrotechnic?

Ack! I feel soooo old. (Jello Biafra was the front man for the Dead Kennedys, and went on a ranting and raving solo career after that. He's worked with the RevCo guys on a number of occasions. Mostly he ranges from simply hypocritical to outright artsy-fartsy intelligensia babble, but has a few good nuggets thrown in just to keep things interesting. He never reached a level as good as DK was, IMHO. I mean, _Terminal Preppy_ was a classic :-) -H- ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Howard Berkey, PP-ASEL, DoD #0944 howard@sirius.com http://www.sirius.com/~howard hberkey@ten.net

have you ever heard his track called Full Metal Jackoff? (it's on the biafra/doa album "last scream of the missing neighbors"). unbelievable 15 minute piece of motorhead-esque one chord drone rock with biafra in top form. to give this the teensiest bit of idm relevance... biafra did a track with keith leblanc (tackhead's drummer/programmer) on the Terminal City Ricochet soundtrack that was pretty bitchin'. -- Name: Jon Email: jsd@cyborganic.com Web: http://www.cyborganic.com/bass-kittens/
