Title: Ted Leo Halloween Misfits tribute
Post by: masterofsparks on November 05, 2009, 05:57:55 PM

My apologies if this has been posted about in another thread, but I couldn't find anything. The 6 Youtube clips appear to present the whole show. TL does not break character and is very funny, and watching this reminds me just how strong those songs are:

I'd prefer these in mp3 format. Are they out there as mp3's or will I have to convert this myself?

yes. those songs are amazing. I wish I could've seen this. 
I always wonder why no punk documentary ever mentions the misfits.

Misfits were so great, good job Ted!

People overlook the Misfits I think because of Danzig metal roid god phase of the last fifteen years.

Those Misfits songs are amazing.

Someone should make a documentary. Someone make it and I will get you a good deal on post production!

If you slow down Misfits songs and give them a little swing, they can be played like old jazz standards. Which is what my old band used to do for parties.

Hybrid Moments with brushes instead of drumsticks is a barnburner, fellas
