Globe's own Jones Rosenberg took out of his busy schedule with his band
the Vigilantes to interview Blag Dahlia lead singer of The Dwarves and
this is what transpired. Hope you all enjoy
Punk Globe: Nice to meet you again. When was the last time you were in
Punk Globe?
Blag: I think it was 1986. The lovely Ginger Coyote did the interview.
Punk Globe: Tell me about the latest line up of The Dwarves. Name,
instrument and one intriguing fact that the readers of Punk Globe didn't
know about every band member.
BLAG: Blag the Ripper- Voacls- Best looking man in show business.
HeWhoCanNotbeNamed- guitar- rock icon
Fresh Prince of Darkness- guitar- the Mayor of Peru
Clint Torres- bass- this gun for hire
Wreck Tom- drums- psycho killer
Punk Globe: How would you describe your sound?
Blag: All genres are combined on our records. We're so far ahead, we're
behind.
Punk Globe: Who are your influences?
Blag: Tiny Tim, Cab Calloway, Frank Zappa, the Shaggs
Punk Globe: What are your future plans?
Blag: No future.
Punk Globe: Whats your favorite Dwarves album?
Blag: The Dwarves Must Die because it combines every style. No other
band has
done it, or even attempted it. Fuck 'em!
Punk Globe: Which song in the world have you wished you wrote?
Blag: The Macarena
Punk Globe: What happened with you and Sub Pop?
Blag: They did a lot of heroin and put out boring music. We reinvented
rock 'n' roll.
Punk Globe: Are you guys writing any new material? What can we
expect?
Blag I have a book coming out in July through Scapegoat Publishing. It's
about a very naughty 15 year old and the things she does for amusement.
Punk Globe: Tell the readers what happened when you had a press
release stating the death of your guitarist?
Blag: He WhoCanNotBeNamed transcends death and mortality. He is an icon,
a living legend.
Punk Globe: How do you comment the way dwarves or little people are
often described in popular culture? (mean, rude, selfish etc)
Blag: I think they're short.
Punk Globe:What is the most bizarre things that has happened on stage
during a Dwarves show?
Punk Globe: Getting blown in Scotland or getting stabbed in Canada are
two of my favorites. Just not at the same time
Punk Globe;Any last comments? Wanna say something to Ginger and the
readers?
Blag: I love Ginger because she can kick my ass.and ride me like a pony!
