Day #361 Danzig - Blackacidevil North American Tour 1997

Color: Black

Brand: Wild Oats

Source:  How stoked are you if your last name just happens to be Danzig.  If i ever have a kid I’m going to name him Tony Danzig seems like a solid idea right?  really secure him a solid future….of getting beat up.  

My relationship with Danzig is very Love / Hate.  he can be such a weirdo jerk at times but then again he was in the Misfits and Samhain.  so you know he isn’t all bad.  there are even some real solid Danzig albums in the earlier years..and shit recently even too.  I think my problem with the later records is he lost a lot of production value and nothing ever sounded as heavy and full as say Danzig I or Lucifuge.  but that really isn’t my big issue with Danzig.  its crappy tantrum performances like the one in Austin that really bum me out.  It sucks cause the only ones he is really bumming out is the fans and not the promoters who just think, oh well ill never book him again.  

I know he is a tough guy and all but know that when you do shit like that you just end up alienating your fans.  but here i am writing about him wearing his shirt.  thus the love / hate part.  He is Danzig.  The shirts are so good.  i just love saying Danzig!  its like when you say SLAYER!!  there is no comparison.  He is like a boyfriend that keeps beating his woman but she keeps coming back cause A: he is hot and B: he will beat her ass if he leaves her.  Perhaps there needs to be a home for the battered victims of Danzig
