Title: Jello Biafra & The New Orleans Raunch & Soul All-Stars
Post by: AUChizad on May 10, 2011, 08:22:27 AM

Saw this Supergroup was having a one-night only performance here, and decided to check it out.

Members include:
Jello Biafra - vocals (lead singer Dead Kennedys)
Fred LeBlanc - drums (drummer/lead singer from Cowboy Mouth)
Pepper Keenan - guitar (guitarist/singer from Down, Corrosion Of Conformity)
Dave Faulkner - guitar (guitarist/singer from Hoodoo Gurus)
Bill Davis - guitar (guitarist/singer from Dash Rip Rock)
Brian Brousasard - bass (Supagroup and Ghost Town)
Josh Cohen - sax (Morning 40 Federation)
Pete Gordon - piano (Mojo Nixon & the Toadliquors)

Met Jello. Sent Wes & Taylor (the only people I figured would care) a pic.

Here's video.

I'm getting old.  I only know two of those bands that those guys came from.  Dead Kennedys (from the Frankenchrist obscenity trial) and Cowboy Mouth (cause they were popular around Auburn while I was in school there).

I'm more impressed that Chad knows who Dave Faulkner is.

I don't. That was from the website. All if those guys sans Jello have some New Orleans connection. Don't know what Faulkner's is since he's from Australia...

I knew of CoC & obviously Cowboy Mouth before. Also love some Mojo Nixon. Dash Rip Rock opened and are now one of my favorite bands. According to their Wikipedia they invented the whole punk-a-billy thing. They're on Jello's label, Alternative Tentacles.

And now that you mention it, I don't remember a third guitar player up on the stage...

Don't see him in any of those videos either. He must have had to cancel.
