yourolympichero Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) http://www2.islandpacket.com/theguide/misfits1205So as a part of one iconic band, what does Only think of the much-discussed exploits of Guns N’ Roses, a band that has covered Misfits songs in the past? Guns N’ Roses this month released “Chinese Democracy” after years of anticipation.“I don’t buy the hype. I could give a (blank),” he said, adding that any band that takes that long to put out an album is just out for money. The Misfits’ 1983 album, “Earth A.D.,” for example, was recorded in about six hours, Only said. “I’m out there playing and taking it to the kids every day,” he said. “We’re out there beating the streets and making it real.” Edited December 4, 2008 by yourolympichero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shackler Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 lmao @ Axl being "out for money"especially without the original band, it must be for money that he didn't release music for 15 yearswhat a fucking goon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estranged Reality Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 “We’re out there beating the streets and making it real.”never trust anyone who says shit like this.The Misfits were pretty awesome in their day, though. There's a reason GN'R covered them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horrorfreak82 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I'm a huge Misfits fan but I have to point out that the last Misfits album of original material was 1999s Famous Monsters. There has been one new song "Bruiser" on the bruiser soundtrack since then. Only is catching up to Axl very quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock in PA Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) This is not the Misfits. Even the scab singer is gone. Now it is Jerry Only and a whole lotta scabs.Exactly... Danzig was the Misfits. Keep beating the streets Only. If Only wasn't "out for the money" as well, he would have called this band something else.

BMo13 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Why do Americans say "i COULD give", its meant to be couldn't. I mean, if you could give it...then it sort of defeats the purpose of saying it.Yeah, I've always noticed that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gash Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Axl is out for the money!? Pot kettle black. Jerry Only is a talentless schmuck, he'd be nothing without Danzig and it's a terrible insult to the band's legacy that the Misfits skull is now as viable and meaningful as the Nike swoosh. I can't believe he's still flogging this dead horse after Graves left and has taken over vocal duties HIMSELF!? Complete madness. I guess appearing on WCW didn't quench his attention seeking, moneygrabbing, talentless son of a bitch self. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightrain50 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Real genious that guy is, lol. That's a way to milk the fans by taking 15 years instead of putting out shit consistently. People are fucking jokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crotch Monster Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 any band that takes that long to put out an album is just out for money. Ok, now this just doesn't make sense. If Axl were out for money why would he spend all those years in the studio which cost a shitload of money? If he were really out for money the album wouldn't have taken nearly as long to make and he'd have had it finished by 2000 to get the bonus Geffen offered him. He'd also have reunited with the Appetite lineup because there's likely a lot more money to be had playing with them rather than whoever is in the band this week. When people say Axl isn't motivated by money I think that's really true. Look at all the great financial opportunities Axl has passed up. On one hand you have Gene Simmons who is an asshole but can make money on anything. Then on the other you have Axl who can be a real jackass and happens to dodge so many great business deals.

Lukinx Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Funny how a guy like Only talks about only being out to grab money. That cheap bastard sold the whole Misfits legacy out for profit! Money grabbing asshole! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teknophyle83 Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 Seems to me that a band only out for money would release record after record of effortless shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macross Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 At least Only tours consistantly. And actually talks to fans. And gives a shit enough to promote his stuff.So yeah. I guess that makes him a bigger asshole then Axl. Riiiiiggghttt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that makes him a bigger asshole then Axl. Riiiiiggghttt Actually it does, because he is also known for making threats to raise the ticket prices where he refuses to play if they don't do as he says. He cancelled the entire Sweden tour for this reason. So yes, he is a bigger asshole and doesnt not have the right to be touring under the Misfits-name.

Sheffilton Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 anyone who makes a statement as contradictory as "any band that takes that long to put out an album is just out for money." is most probably suffering from cerebral palsy and a severe case of inbreeding.

Spuffy78 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 (edited) Eh, it hasn't been the Misfits since Graves and Doyle left.I've meet Jerry Only in Jersey he's a cool dude but I think he's bitter than Glen get 53% of Misfits of the cash that Misfits product's make.

Powerage5 Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 First off, why would you ask someone pioneered hardcore in the early '80s about something so complex? I'm not saying all punks are dipshits or anything, but it's not his scene and it seems obvious Only wouldn't give a shit. Plus, he loses all credibility for trying to carry on the Misifts without Glenn Danzig. Jerry Only currently resides in the "asshole punks who now only care about money" file along with East Bay Ray, Klaus Flouride and Springa. Let a good thing die when it should!

dann Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 Says the guys who's band has had more members than gnr has ever had. Him and his officially licensed Jerry Only action figure are really keeping it real in the streets alright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
