HOLY SCHNEIKIES, did you really?  Awesome.  I just saw the original line up again, twice in the last two years.  In 2010 they did their first 2 albums back to back.  Saw them again this year after their new release. 

I am green with envy.

Yep. Back in '86 at Newcastle Mayfair, Uk. Brighter than a Thousand Suns tour. Youth had left and they had (rip) Raven on bass, but otherwise original line up intact. They looked young still when I saw them.... lol...

...and now...they look just slightly older than me.  Which is frightening, to say the least - 'cause they look OLD.  Hee hee.  But still having immense fun.

Anyway I got to go to bed now.... Glad to meet you.... hope to chat again!!!!

Hello Rob

I suppose most people know but I had to check, and it seems Killing Joke were named for the Monty Python sketch.

I was born a Yankee (Pa), spent 3 years in Germany, raised mostly in Texas, and now live in NC. They do Christian campgrounds here. There is one about a half mile from my home, at the corner of a no outlet that I have to go by to come and go. They are about to start their festivities! HELLLLP!! (Look up Rock Springs Campground)

I really would like to do a flash mob there this year.
