WATCH THE REST OF THE SOFT FOCUS WITH JELLO - http://www.vbs.tv/video.php?id=24051392001 -----

In this first-ever San Franciscan edition of Soft Focus, Ian sits down with Jello Biafra: Dead Kennedys frontman, campus lecture circuit mainstay, and crucial third member of punk's Triumverate of Tremolos (alongside the B52s' Fred Schneider and the recently deceased Lux Interior(RIP)).

While most other participants in what gets labeled punk these days are willing to touch their ass to their forehead in order to please corporate sponsors or weasel their way onto Elimidate, we're constantly psyched to see Jello stick with the principles and obnoxiousness which made us etch the DK logo into every piece of exposed wood our 13-year-old hands came across. Even when that means shitting on our advertisers.

  • the actual interviews at 1:10 for anyone who just wants that with out the bullshit

  • @godsizedhole he thinks of questions he would be asked then reads on them and know everything to say about the subject

  • Jello, thank you for allowing my dad, in 1985 to ask me the important question,"Is this a fucking joke?"

  • he knows who wesley willis is. he is the lead singer for the make up. he used to be in nation of Ulysses . he knows music.

  • @SadMarker

    Nope. Do believe he is, or was at least, married.

  • he likes saying pantheon a lot.

  • biafra, not biafram

  • @negatyve Good quote, I like the intro.. Amusing and eloquent at the same time, a style that few succeed in doing.

  • ( lol ) Jello's so queer. Verbose, intelligent, and, unlike John Lydon, fascinating without being an asshole.

  • @SadMarker no
