Jello Biafra niet op Dead Kennedys jubileum-show

Jello biafra, voormalig voorman van de legendarische punkband Dead Kennedys, heeft laten weten niet te willen meewerken aan de aankomende jubileum-show van de band, die haar 25-jarig bestaan viert. Eerder hadden leden van Dead Kennedys, die al jaren overhoop liggen met Jello vanwege nooit betaalde royalties, de oud-zanger gevraagd op de jubileum-show te zingen. Bassist Kalus Flouride benadrukt dat het niet om een publiciteitsstunt gaat, maar dat ze nu eindelijk de stijdbijl willen begraven. Jello's reactie op de uitnodiging: "To put it mildly, this reeks of false advertising. They obviously aren't serious or they would have called me on the phone. Instead, their message came through their lawyers and their publicist. What's the matter, not enough Hot Topic bozo teens flocking to stuff cash in their bikinis? Are they having that much trouble selling tickets to a bar that holds less than 600 people? If they really want to, "bury the hatchet," why won't they stop suing me? They have been dragging me through court for almost six years now, and have refused attempts to compromise and settle. I feel sorry for anyone duped into paying top dollar for a ticket because they heard, "I might be there". But I hardly think I'm "letting fans down" by refusing to be part of a nostalgia scam. It makes even less sense than the California Recall election. Sorry I'm not running, folks, but I didn't want to take votes away from Gary Coleman. No, seriously, I'm supporting the high-quality Green Party nominee with the vision and skills to govern - Peter Camejo! Please vote for him. "
