Has David Yow (of Jesus Lizard) always been a right-wing nutjob?

well, he's lobbying for my right to bear arms, so i guess that's a sign

kinda doubt it's the same david yow, as this one seems to live in sacto.

hahaha, it's sort of hilarious to think it's THE David Yow, writing stuff like this:

Wednesday, December 31, 2003
So, Michael Jackson is complaining that he was manhandled when he was arrested. So what? He's a MAN. Given the public confusion over the fellow's race and gender, you think he'd be glad to at least have one of those things affirmed. Does he want to be treated like a lady next time? Sheesh.

what DID happen to David Yow, though?

hi
is this the david yow from the jesus lizard? one of the best bands ever?

---------

I get these every now and again. After enjoying a chuckle, I replied to the dude, telling him I wasn't the man he was looking for, but that I would forward his email if possible. You see, once, the 'real' David Yow emailed me, and we exchanged a few messages, so I do have his email address somewhere. Do a google search on this guy or his band if you wanna know more about my so-called "alter ego." LOL.

Someone was muttering abt a Jesus Lizard reformation yesterday, although whether this has any base in fact I have no idea

"Muttering"? Was it some crazy guy on the street?

No, this was on our old friend the internet messageboard. The crazy street guy, meanwhile, reckoned the Head of David comeback album was due any time soon

― DJ Mencap0))), Friday, 30 September 2005 21:46 (twenty years ago)

I for one can't wait for a new Jesus Lizard record full of classic songs like "Cellphones are annoying", "Can't find a decent barber", "Michael Jackson - BE A MAN", and "Interesting new spin on a well-known bible passage".

― 100% Nice (nordicskilla), Friday, 30 September 2005 21:52 (twenty years ago)

I think Killdozer already have a song called "Can't find a decent barber."

David Yow guested with the Melvins in London last February (at ATP too I think). Apparently he doesn't drink any more.

Well, it does make it easier to put their records on. Oooh you mean THOSE kind of arms.
