PUNK GLOBE:
Who are you and what do you do?
Glen Hamzinger:
WHO ARE YOU TO DEMAND SUCH INFORMATION OF ME, GLEN HAMZINGER, EARTH-BOUND GOD OF MIRTH AND EXCESS?!?
Noland Bell:
Well, actually, we are The Misfats and, this year, we're reuniting because we love you all just that much.
PUNK GLOBE:
How did the idea behind the Misfats come about?
Glen Hamzinger:
YOU DON'T QUESTION THE SOURCE - YOU FALL TO YOUR KNEES AND THANK THE HEAVENS YOU'VE BEEN GRANTED SUCH A GIFT!
Noland Bell:
(cough) Again, umm, well, we said to one another, "You know what? We're sick of these bands taking themselves so seriously. You know what would be dumb? A Misfits parody act - because it'd be so damn genius."
PUNK GLOBE:
Do you consider yourselves a satire/parody or a tribute band?
Glen Hamzinger:
YES!!!
Noland Bell:
Okay, gotta agree with that loud-voiced guy this time...more parody than anything else BUT where else are you going to hear these great Misfits songs performed?
PUNK GLOBE:
You've been on a lengthy hiatus and are now coming back out of the kitchen to play a Halloween show. What have you guys been up to all this time?
Glen Hamzinger:
WE HAVE NOT BEEN IN THE KITCHEN!!! WE HAVE BEEN IN THE BATHROOM AND IT HAS BEEN GLORIOUS!!!
Noland Bell:
Geez, how does that guy keep getting in here? Actually, we've spent that time traveling to each and every single one of our fans and thanking them in person for their support. That's a lot of fans so that's a lot of time, ya know?
PUNK GLOBE:
Is this a one off show on Halloween or do you have more things planned?
Glen Hamzinger:
YOU CANNOT FATHOM THE PLANS WE HAVE FOR YOUR PUNY, SKINNY WORLD!!!
Noland Bell:
I'll translate this time for him, "Yes, this is just a one-off, unless we get a call from Colbert or Kimmel."
PUNK GLOBE:
Has Glenn Danzig or Jerry Only ever heard or seen the Misfats? And have you ever communicated with them? And if so what was their response?
Glen Hamzinger:
WHO ARE THESE PRETENDERS OF WHICH YOU MENTION?!? BAH! BANISH THEM FROM YOUR MOUTH FOREVER!
Noland Bell:
Wow, someone's got attention issues. In any event, we've heard tales from other bands mentioning us to former Misfits, with the range of responses being suspicious disdain to full-bellied laughter.
PUNK GLOBE:
What's your favorite buffet to eat at?
Glen Hamzinger:
GORGON'S MEAT-AND-FLESH PALACE ON KULUTIA PRIME!
Noland Bell:
Seriously, it's just the best - if you're ever in the area...
PUNK GLOBE:
What was the best and worst gig you have played? did you ever get a negative response? hate mail?
Glen Hamzinger:
EVERY GIG IS OUR BEST AND OUR WORST - HAVE YOU NOT BORNE WITNESS TO OUR GLORY?!?
Noland Bell:
Umm, again, gotta agree with the Loud Guy. And the only groups that don't seem to like us are crusties (take this stuff far too seriously) and kids (not secure enough yet in their punk rock to mock it).
PUNK GLOBE:
Is there a misfits song in their catalog that you just couldn't turn into a song about food?
Glen Hamzinger:
BAH! EVERY SONG IS FODDER FOR THE MIGHTY MISFATS CONVERSION MACHINE!
Noland Bell:
True, but some just don't work well at all so we've left pretty much alone (I'm looking your way, "Skulls").
PUNK GLOBE:
Shamelessly promote whatever you want here (websites, youtubes, myspaces etc.)
Glen Hamzinger:
OCTOBER 31, 2015, YOUR PUNY-SKINNY-EARTH HALLOWEEN, AT THE TWILIGHT CAFE IN SE PDX, WITH STAY TUNED AND BRIDGETOWN HOMICIDES - COME BEAR WITNESS TO THE GREATEST EVENT YOUR LIVES WILL EVER ATTAIN!!!
Noland Bell:
Yeah, what he said!
