Danzig Tour, Misfits Reunion (again) & Mortiis

Misfits I wonder if Danzig sold more tickets than usual last tour due to the addition of Doyle and their 30 minute Misfits reunion set. Not only is Danzig squashing rumors that the last tour would be his last, he's bringing Doyle on the road with him again for ANOTHER tour featuring the Misfits reunion set. I'M NOT COMPLAINING. Chimaira, Behemoth, Himsa, Mortiis, and The Agony Scene will open the shows which means this time I'll try and get there early. (click for must-see picture of Mortiis)

Danzig Announces Tour

QUICK HISTORY LESSON: The ORIGINAL Misfits ('80-'83 lineup) were Glenn Danzig (vocals), Doyle, Jerry Only, and various drummers. The CURRENT Misfits (who play all the time everywhere) are Jerry Only and a rotating cast of characters. Do not confuse the current Misfits with the Misfits reunion featuring Danzig and Doyle. They different.

The Misfits suck without Danzig. He was the whole band. The guy that they got to replace him, can NEVER fill his shoes!!! The Misfits rock, but Misfits SUCK! I really wish Danzig would change his mind about the whole reunion thing. I'm 20 and I wasn't alive when they were together. Their "new" band isn't worth paying $20 to go see.BUT I would pay a thousand dollars to go see the REAL Misfits play.

There's no doubt that the misfits were an incredible band with Danzig, but I saw Misfits the other night in the UK and they were incredible! The energy was unbelievable and the crowd were loving it. Saying that I'd also pay a shed load of cash to see a reunited misfits.

And unlike some others, I wouldn't want Graves back - the guy was good, but he believed his own hype and didn't realise how lucky he was to be in the greatest band of all time - fuck him and his conservative punk movement!

dude, danzig is a prick.
and at the last Misfits show i went to, jerry stayed after the show for an extra hour, so that he could autograph everyones shit...
never saw danzig do that....danzigs music is good, but as far as im concerned..he can fuck off.

I have seen Danzig sign autographs for a Loooonnngg time and joke around with fans after a show and he is great with the fans. He is Really a nice cool guy. in fact you can find videos and pictures of him doing cool shit for his fans all the time. tons of people taping him and fans writing about there experiences with him and 99% of the time its 5 stars but everyone has a bad day now and then.
Now that that is out of the way, I don't know ANY sensible Misfits or Punk fan for that matter or Danzig fan even, that would not want to see Glenn, Jerry, Doyal and ROBO back together.(Hell as many drummers as the Misfits used during their run in the 70's and 80's my personal vote would go to use Chuck Biskits from Samhain, he was also Glenn's drummer during the Classic Danzig era, he also played for Black Flag and DOA during their best years)(he is in my estimation the best drummer of the 70's 80's punk era.)
However, I digress, the bottom line is that the reunion of at least Glenn, Jerry, and Doyal is all it takes for it to be a true Misfits Reunion, would be something I would go anywhere anytime for any amount to see.
