...Just shut your snout, pigface. I was into Wall
of Voodoo before you ever even heard of them,
idiot shit. Yeah, so they set a Casio on auto-
melody, and did their best to remake a Johnny
Cash song, but that only paid recognition, it did
not quite say anything new in the slightest. Stan
Ridgeway sold out to a teen beat-esque 'Rumble
Fish' that was a most dreary, bland, electronic
melody force-fed to a newly commercialized "new
wave" rock of the eighties population that went
nowhere fast, only making him look like an idiot
to his former bandmates. WoV had their 15 minutes
with that overplayed barbequed iguana song, but
as someone who has listened to all their
material, and much of the material of that era, I
really think coming to this board and praising
them as some early genius forerunners in the
percusion department is a bit lame, uncalled for,
and empty. Please refrain from trying to boost
record sales from an Orange County band that
lived by the "Rock of the 80's" corporate
movement, and died by the "Rock of the 80's"
corporate movement [also insert: Gang of Four,
The Flirts, The Human League...yawn..all that
crap down the drain, will the last one who used
them please flush?!] and support bands that are
out there now playing and putting out CD's
because I just don't have the patience for this
kind of crap. It took real panache to attack a
drummer gone by. Why don't you knock the '64 Ford
Falcon for having faulty throttle linkage
problems as well. You're stupid.
Everyone else:
"Saint Patrick led the sailors into the wasteland.
A herd of swine surrounded them one day.
It was the answer to their prayers.
A sure sign of a god that cared.
But McCarthy disagreed, "It's not that simple."

: : ...That's fucking Saint Patrick to you guys.
HA-HA-HA! is there a Saint Chancaca?...NOOOOOO.
Is there a Saint Diana Death?....NOOOOOO. Is
there a Saint R.A.?....NOOOOOO, is there a Saint
YDSM?....NOOOOOO. Is there a Saint
Meat?....HAHAHA!...NOOOOOO. Or at least not good
enough to get a holiday associated with beer!
: I would like to start by stating the obvious:
Listen to Wall of Voo Doo's Dark Continent and
then watch Blue Velvet, "viola' deadbolt, except
for the exceptional drumming by studio maverick
Mark Davidson the band is flat and smells of poo
poo ca ca.haha additional drums
