Jello Biafra/Dead Kennedys Interview

[bathewater]

Is that Okie Dog they're eating at?

[MikeyCollie1990]

Hate Jools Holland.

[NoFuture4All]

I love watching Jello eating a burrito while talking with his mouth full!

[unclerobbieslug]

hahaha was he freaked out in the end? what was that?

[Bolation]

I think it's a burrito

[skehlaaj]

Randy Blythe's grand daddy.

[ManDayGreen]

He's so incredibly cool!

[deadbirdsings]

@ewkeane - How idiotic. What's a song like California Uber Alles supposed to mean to a 16 year old today? He wasn't even born when Jerry Brown was in office, and he doesn't know anything about Nazism beyond what he's seen in Hollywood movies and heard in DKs songs. The Dead Kennedys are totally irrelevant to today's generation. They may have left some good music behind, but that's about it.

[ThomasJeffersonOG]

@deadbirdsings Jerry Brown is currently in office, just so you know. They couldn't be more applicable today. There will always be tyranny by the government, rich, whoever, and the Dead Kennedys point that out. DK says don't lay down and take it; do something. Do you really think this generation is corruption free?

[resincoatedlungs]

@deadbirdsings

Irrelevent to today's generation? We have anarchists rioting with police in Oakland, and the entire world from the middle east, to Europe, and now it's starting in the US. Have you heard of the National Defense Authorization Act and the Patriot Act. Maybe not California Uber Alles, but We've Got a Bigger Problem Now sure does, if you replace Uncle Ronny with Obama or Bush or anyone in power right now, really.

[deadbirdsings]

@LustForHate - God damn, if that ain't the truth.

[deadbirdsings]

@Hammersmashedaccount - Just cause he's smarter than you doesn't mean he knows anything.

[deadbirdsings]

@ThatHairyCanadian - I thought it was the hippies who wanted to change the world.

[deadbirdsings]

Biafra was far too opinionated for someone so young.

[slempress63]

Hey...That's at Oki Dogs!!!

[Mcdovin1]

TROLOLOLOL guy haha. jk

[TheDrmohawk]

so are the dead kennedys anti conservative or are they against everything

[AwesomeSauceLimited]

@TheDrmohawk If you're anti-everything then you're for something else, you can't be anti-everything. They are i suppose "Anti-conservative".

[80smoviesguy]

took me a while to realize that Jello is quoting Flipper at 4:40

[thprfssnl1]

what year is this?

[rockingroller9000]

Anyone else hate Jools Holland's voice? I think it's really fuckin' annoying...

[Crede06]

That is a punk. Finishes an interview, then walks down the street and no one knows who he is

[deanabraxas69]

Jools Holland is a moron

[cryjesuscry]

nothing took your place, thats the fuckin problem

[ExhumedAnatomy]

He was eating at Oki Dogs, a popular food joint in the 80s in Santa Monica.

[DorakoftheHillPeople]

@ExhumedAnatomy Greg Graffin offered some vivid recollections of Oki Dog in his most recent book, Anarchy Evolution.

[evankm1111]

fuck jools holland

[evankm1111]

is your username darby for darby crash?

[Lieu3C4]

Jello look like he were being paid in food for this interview.  o.0

[DJFredReilly92]

Anyone know the song playing in the background?

[giansideros]

Well Jools Holland is a pretentious overrated piece of shit, for all you American viewers here, google his atrociously bad show, you'll get what I mean.

[Gzusbulululululululu]

2:11 interviewer fail

[kingbillyist]

@ CobraSwan. Very well said! Jello rules!

[itssssmeee]

dude he's a genius. . . dude.

[cobraswan]

Jools was obviously jabbing him in the end with a passive aggressive "ok now u want a ride from me in a car but your punk antics have you walking home". I think Jello was more so seeking a friendly departure like "thanks for the interview".

Jools can put him in his place with a stunt like that but let's not forget that jello holds the cards... If it weren't for jello and all the other creators and shapers of pop culture, jools would have no job.

[couchwanker]

BRITISH PHONEY

[LynniAeon]

Wow, I just came across this. Fabulous!

[SexPistolsUK94]

i love how jello says they could live off their music but he walked home cause he didint have a car

[PSXGAMER22]

Jello sounds a little like butthead

[olliephelan]

what does jooles holland say  at the very end just before cmera stops ?

[ElvisChrist6]

@olliephelan He said something like, "I think he fancied a lift off me, I don't know!" Either fancied or wanted!

[malangsob]

Jello is the man.

[alliekatt88]

does anyone know what year this interview is from?

[LokedOut4Lyfe]

Looking back on my music taste, in Rap / Hip Hop & Metal. I never thought I would venture my interest into punk and hardcore. I guess one good thing "for me anyway" came out of this whole lack of enjoyable music being produced today. It forced me to look back and acknowledge with an appreciation, bands like Dead Kennedys and the entire genre itself. Much respect to Jello!!!!!

[LP101A]

That English interviewer was an ass

Ok, I wanted to state the obvious

[fishnetsNcigarettes]

AGREED. porcelain elvis's...

[CTE0895]

haha the reported gets so pissed

[abbyboyone]

Jello = dale gribble from king of the hill. LOL.

[bornwithclothes]

You asshole. He's eating a burrito. Not a hamburger

[drlovebutton]

Fuck ass limey cunt. Biafra rules.

[HiPPoKryPtiC]

Between The Buried And Me > Most "talented" creative bands > Dead Kennedys.. music is straight but you want a Real experience

[Yubera2K10]

1.00

Those words were in the Lyrics to "A Growing Boy Needs His Lunch"

[cosmodyseeus]

I'm suprised jello eats meat honestly

[Afterglow1010]

Jools Holland is a pure dick. Seems like he went into that interview thinking he was going to slaughter Jello but found himself educationally inferior and had to leave.

[TheNewMusicNetwork]

@Afterglow1010 poor jools. another britonic-bozo who thought he could outwit a "dumb american"

[TheInk41]

wtf did that stupid british say at the end?

[killie84]

@TheInk41 "...people poncing lifts off of people they don't know". It was a shit attempt at humour at Jello's expense after what must be the most embarrassing interview Jules Holland has ever conducted. I don't know if it's been unfairly edited, but Holland comes across as an arrogant, sneering prick. I hope he's suitably ashamed of himself.

[cecopiteco]

quoting flipper... 

[cecopiteco]

wow i finally see the infamous oki dog !!! (it's were the germs used to hang out)

[Blitzkreeg94]

Biafra is amazing...what a slap in the face interview!

[elbeanboymanchester]

Speaking as an englishman doesnt old "jools" make a right cunt out of himself, he must look back at this interview anr think "I was totally out of touch", Jello hits the nail on the head and this interview hasnt dated.............I really hate his mocking tone towards a man who is obviously interlectual superior...........for more cuntish behaviour from Jools Holland please see the english "pap show" (sic) called THE TUBE...................what a cunt.

[GenerationMilitaires]

@elbeanboymanchester Yeah, Jools is a twat. I strongly get the impression he has a heightened opinion of himself, not at all deserved either. You're spot on.

[draumafikill]

JELLO IS A GOLDEN GOD!!!

[meatwad13666]

anybody else know where that laugh was from? It was from HAHA by Flipper

[DrRockdapuss]

the English fagot interviewer was a little bitch at the end... What did he say?

[SKANKER22SG]

good old oki dogs, those guys that worked ther were like on whizzzzz, good memories

[ccf1971]

The Jesuits were responsible for the Kennedy assassinations.

[TheC0mm0nEnemy]

"When we become family friendly as everything does"

They were in Guitar Hero 3.

He saw it coming.

[ImpendingRiot83]

@TheC0mm0nEnemy Only reason that happened is because East Bay Ray is a fucking asshole who, along with the other bandmates, raped Jello up the ass in court and took all the rights to the music away from him. Jello would not have approved that lame-ass move.

[TheC0mm0nEnemy]

@ImpendingRiot83 I never said it was his fault, i just said it happened, just like he said it would.

[charliechapstick3000]

hell yeah

[Hot80s]

Dead Kennedys was my anger exhaust at 14 otherwise i would have killed my family.

[Isismusicnow]

that's jools holland right?

[j1l9f9k0]

@Isismusicnow yep

[teamretrouniverse]

this guys to ahead of his time, or to far behind

[Misfitspunk1023]

@kernst650 You seem upset.......bro.

[Postalcatz]

I've never heard such an awesome voice come out of a person. Jello just sounds interesting, no matter what he's saying or doing.

[CallumCR]

What the fuck was that guy's problem at the end when he asked about having a car and then just walking off? Talk about being impolite after asking a bunch of shit questions while Jello is trying to eat

[kernst650]

The dead Kennedys are jackasses listin to their crap that emminatees from their mouth. They are rich and there are now sarcasms for them, they are a cop out for pussies, and people that were just going with it. He's a jackass from america. The stupid shit, has no idea that the worlds richest and most powerfull are the Dutch-English that founded america. He is a WANKER, Not even Native Americn!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tell this Faggot To shut the fuck UP.

[jaykiernan13]

Dude... Fuck up.

Go listen to your mainstream...

[TheGreenman4444]

I used to like Jools Holland until i saw this interview....why the fuck be such a random dick!!???!?

[bronzepumpkin]

@TheGreenman4444 He is totally unnecessarily rude, and Jello is obviously going out of his way to be civil, when he'd be justified in just slapping the guy!

[TheMon0241]

haha i like how the people steal his food after he leaves the table

[RockstarRacc00n]

Thanks for uploading! Jello Biafra's always an awesome interviewee...

I added it to my NEW playlist for the Dead Kennedys (the old one got pwned). You should go look at it on my Channel... *punched in the face for the shameless ad* :P

[Hardtack444]

What the fuck are you talking about?

so many great lyricist give such bullshitty interviews.

[screendoor]

Is Joey gay? I know almost everyone on this site is a faget liberal. How do you homos not know he is a Gay. He is a well known cocksucker. This fucking queer does have some great songs.

[screendoor]

@screendoor sorry Jello i called you a mans name Joey.

[arealOpia1991]

this guy is such a brilliant geek !!

[thatcanadaguy2]

i wish Jelo was my dad.

[DamnedTheMan3]

@HaiImAllHaiLKINGT2 oh come on! I'm from California and I've never met anyone who talks like that!

[DamnedTheMan3]

I love the guy so much, but he sounds so gay when he talks lol XD

[clonecomanderfox]

Oh Jello, he talks like the polite Gay Guy you meet on the bus, but sings like a Drunk Irishmen. And that's why I love him so.

[herbs772]

@clonecomanderfox just because hes from San Francisco doesn't mean hes gay

[deadbirdsings]

@herbs772 - Yes it does.

[herbs772]

@deadbirdsings He was married! (to a women)

[mrsethcorbin]

Jools, what the fuck were you doing?

[iamloitering]

THank you jello,for staying alive. SO if you think than SPEAK. i KNOW i WILL NEVER DRIVE OR FEEL RUN DOWN FROM THIS SOCIETY ANYMORE. BUT SO MUCH APTITUDE IS A MUST. bECAUSE YOU HAVE PAVED MY MIND TO NOT ONLY THINK BUT TO ACT SO LONG LIVE THE KING. (I'M NOT WELL AT COMPLIMENTS EITHER)

[eatmeimsteak]

OKI DOGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fuckamericanidiot]

whoa jools, what was that about?

[larrybonner1]

@fuckamericanidiot he said "poncing lifts off me, i don't know.."

[RushNTriumphRock]

lol i dont think the brit like jello very much xD

[frizzlefry420oh]

is jello gay?

[themdamnwheaties]

@frizzlefry420oh That'd be fuckin' sweet.

[crazy4262]

@frizzlefry420oh no he was married

[frizzlefry420oh]

im surprised that jello didnt have trouble with that microphone.

[BigL4TW3NTY]

freaking awesome. its not just the music they make that perfects their stance in society, but also the life style they live.

[27039609]

what does he say at the end?

[Druffmaul]

@27039609 Almost impossible to make out, maybe something like"[...] wants a lift off me"? i.e. wanting a ride since he doesn't have a car?

[27039609]

@Druffmaul ah ok, thanks!

[TyeDyeGuyRy]

I half hoped to hear him to say "you silly goose" somewhere.

[RE8978RETURN]

I just got into this band today can any heavy duty fan recommend me what to get from this band

[Vaicurious]

@RE8978RETURN

Give Me Convenience Or Give Me Death is a good one, Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables is great also.

[aakuster]

@RE8978RETURN In God We Trust Inc. & Plastic Surgery Disasters

[FuttBucker667]

It's funny seeing Jello talk about the "Me Generation." If theres one thing Jello knows its being a self satisfied douche.

[dzz18]

Is that jools holland?

[Vaicurious]

Jello talks like a mom from the 50's, aww yeea.

[tonyDsnake]

Jello has always been one of my insperations he made me understand I wasnt alone when I saw the sheer stupidity and hypocrisy of the society we live in. More people should see this interview.

[kashcino1]

PEOPLE WONT WATCH MY VIDEOS. :(

[dirtydan]

i could listen to jello talk for fucking hours

[davemeidinger]

@dirtydan you can listen to him for hours! buy his spoken word albums

[samruiz0000]

what he said for i kill children is so true that song is awsome

[samruiz0000]

@samruiz0000 i wonder is that spot still there in San Fransisco?

[94Cioppa]

I thought he was straight edge?

[yasminsaraa]

i just became a fan of the dead kennedys and i really like how jello is so intelligent and tasteful he is. i wish music was like this these days...

[uzidude132]

@yasminsaraa yeah i like his sarcastic ironic sort of humor.hes realy clever

[ExhumedRemains]

4:40 Hahahaha Hohohoho Hehehehe...........Flipper reference?

[ay1ward]

@ExhumedRemains Another band from the Bay area known for being really offbeat and were active around the same time? I'd be surprised if it wasn't a nod to them. Yeah, I got kick out of that part myself (especially since I was listening to Flipper only an hour ago).

[YaWantTaters]

Always gonna have love for Jello(lol no never thought, until you mentioned it, of Sylvester the Cat), and people judge him as people will, the guy's always ready with the educated, informed opinions and not a dope-bombed loser. The thinking man's punk rocker and I, for one, respect that!

[94Cioppa]

This guy has a good radio voice.

[pocketandjimmy]

Jello is one crazy douche.. The interviewer was cool though

[TheThing88]

I love Jello and the Kennedys and everything else he's ever done, BUT does anybody else find they can't help picturing sylvester the cat whenever he speaks?

[Super25man]

0:00 attack it jello.

[portalsofmadnes]

That interviewer seemed like kinda of a dick,but atleast he asked good relevant questions.

[jamesbullet55]

@portalsofmadnes Yeah he's jools holland, i can never decide whether I like him or hate him Lo

[CloudStrifeOfficial]

ive been into dead kennedys since i was bout 13-14, that was late nineties tho, so i was never there when it was going on,

so all ive been able to find out is stuff ive heard from older punks,

is it true he got his legs broke by a bunch of punks for 'selling out'?

(notice the inverted comma around selling outs, im not saying it myself.

[summerofska]

@CloudStrifeOfficial yEA that was actually at gilman here int he bay area. they were 86d and got their ass kicked countless times.

[thoughtcrime22]

love the madonna in the background

[accordin2gordon]

Some very timely thoughts....even if this interview was in the 80s

[KurtMcGowan]

I don't think Dead Kennedys will ever become safe family entertainment x

[KozmoJ68]

is that a burrito? or a pita sandwich? perhaps it a pb&j with the crust cut off.

JELLO for Commander & Chief!!

[ghostinthemean]

Can you dig the era of cars moving behind this whole interview.... Jello rocks!

That is what I have to say!

[mrfudgeyhead]

I....

I keep coming back to this.

Not only captivated by Holland and especially legend Biafra...

But there's something hypnotizing about watching him eat a burger.

[KurtMcGowan]

@mrfudgeyhead you strange child....

[954isme]

i want an old school cheeseburger like that now. great f'ng interview

[bjsmith503]

the interviewer is an asshole for the car bit at the end. i hope he got colon cancer and died from all the steaks he's been eating.

[bjsmith503]

the interviewer was a real dick at the end. about the car thing. stupid richerd. i hope he got colon cancer from eating to many steaks.

[bjsmith503]

the interviewer was a real dick at the end. about the car thing. stupid richard. i hope he got colon cancer from eating to many steaks.

[angemala]

hehe jello is such a smart arse... love it!

[YouCube7]

@slipknotleopards78 Jools Holland said "thanks for the interview, than"

[rnjvajayjay]

i love jello and the shit he is saying but i find his voice REALLY annoying.

[954isme]

i have become informed! ilove activists and people who take charge in changing things. i wonder how people in the early and late 80s saw interviews like this without the invention of the internet. when i was young in the late 90s, the bands that were underground and hard to find, i saw their interviews, concerts, etc. through tapes and sometimes word of mouth

[NotSoAmericanIdiot]

He's suprising well-spoken and smart....I've just gained alot of respect for him :)

[0live0wire0]

@NotSoAmericanIdiot of course he's smart look at his lyrics. He reminds me of Frank Zappa - both are extremely smart, well spoken, sarcastic and write some great songs. They believe in freedom and expose every hypocrisy in their way. Jello is my fucking man i would vote for him anytime.

[jennthya]

Ah Jello...love you...do you still have the socks I gave you?

[NubbintheGreat]

I love his voice so much.

[mussman717word]

Jello is so much cooler than Elvis.

[Lauradiscriminado]

I love jello!!

[bagofrandom]

As I say .. . . bah hahahahahahaha!

Haters can't do shit to Jello Biafra, he is the master of getting under skin, you can try and troll this one man, but make note of the fact that he trolled all of America

[mojaroar]

holland says " trying to ponse a lift off me, I don't know" as he's walking away. all very tongue in cheek I think. The interview and it's ending seem to be contived, a poor atempt at ironyic humour, but mildly funny. Jello is a genius ansd would have made mincemeat of Holland had it been any different.

[Dansilverbabe]

LOL the song in the background....JeLLO is so cool I'd give it up to get inside that diabolical head of his!

[Heyjudeiliketurtles]

America Uber Alles??? hahahahaha

[MrAdammassacre]

I just love Jello's shades :D

[mojaroar]

@bass109 hey.. u n jesus can suck my big fat dick....mmmmmmm

[Aamonath]

@bass109 what an irrelevant comment....

[kevinherbert]

He's a very powerful guy...yes, I wonder why there's no doco maker in the US who's put him under the microscope...

[krggamer]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA JELLO!!! you are my hero run for mayor again I WILL FUCKING VOTE FOR YOU!!!!!!

[Olita70]

Yes, just like NOW, 30 years later !!

[ShimmySystem]

that interviewer was terrible. "Ok I guess we're done, seeya"

Should have given him a handshake and said "It was nice interviewing you" or some shit like that.

[invade81]

@ShimmySystem I think it was a crap joke. It seemed pre-planned... Jello didn't bat an eyelid and Jools is usually more professional than that.

[chrishirschfeld]

He would probably do a better job than our current president. I don't agree with all of his ideas though.

[chrishirschfeld]

He would probably do a better job than our current president.
