Captain's Log, Stardate: 92433.71
Halloween is upon us once again guys and ghouls! I kind of wanted to celebrate Halloween on the air by doing something completely different. I wanted to do something that reflected the mood of Halloween. I could have done a regular show and thrown in some disco edits of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" or Ray Parker, Jr.'s "Ghostbusters." You all would have expected that out of me. However, I'm a DJ of many tastes and always love to surprise my audience.
A little back story; I have been into punk for years. My love for the Misfits came about before I was a teenager. My friend Brad introduced me to them and I was immediately hooked. There was something about the way Glenn Danzig was singing and the imagery of the now legendary "Crimson Ghost" that totally worked for me being a pre-pubescent youngster. I think it also helped that most of their songs were about some of the same cheesy horror movies that "Mystery Science Theater 3000" was making fun of. (Which is one of the greatest television programs in the history of television.) I would get so amped when my friends and I would hop in Brad's Parent's mini-van and head to the skatepark blasting The Misfits the whole way. It was also great that the artists in the band dressed as skeletons, ghouls, or whatever hellish costumes they could come out with. The Misfits were so different than anything that was out at the time. And I was always drawn in.
Anyway, enough waxing over my love for The Misfits. The reason I did this show was to share my love of something different to you, the listener. I will always be into punk music, and I'll always be into The Misfits. There is a huge part of me that wishes that punk and rock were still just as edgy and had the controversy that it once did. Maybe one day that will all come back. Because all we got now are these wussy-ass rockers and their damn ukuleles.
