now that's what i call music

(everybody pretend that this is strictly about music and only tangentially about politics kthx)

On the way back from soccer tonight, i heard Jello Biafra sing an updated version of "California Über Alles", with lyrics mocking the DHS ("Here comes the Homeland Security police / you're a terrorist and so is your niece!") and Ahnuld ("a kindergarten cop in every school", and only he could get away with rhyming "Schwarzenegger" with "dictator").  I gotta see if i can get my hands on a copy of that.

An ex girlfriend of mine played flute, (not a euphemism) in the Bay Area Punk Rockestra. They did a cover of California Uber Alles with a spot on Jello impersonator. I'll dig up and post the clip if I can find it.

I completely have that. I will find it.

Damn it, it must be mislabelled or something, because I can't find it anywhere. If I run across it, you will be the first to know.

This post dovetails nicely with my recent discovery of the Dead Kenny Gs (http://www.thedeadkennygs.com/). I'm now picturing Jello joining them onstage for a punk-jazz rendition of "Holiday In Cambodia."

I heart Jello.

Is there a new album or something? Or just the one song?

[ronebofh.livejournal.com]

It was a live performance, so i don't know.

Must. Hear. This.

Jello Uber Alles.
