I must admit (sheepishly) that I thought the "theyr" clip from you tube was  
pretty hilarious, and I'm not exactly sure if it's supposed to be.  The  bass 
player does  some pretty classic
"angst ridden white new wave guy" dance moves,  and the lead singer  looks 
half way between Klaus Nomi and a monty python sketch.  The  guitar players were 
on loan from from Devo.  However, having said that I  thought the drumming 
was great and the guitar parts were cool too.    Visually I just thought it was 
kind of goony.
 
         On a separate note, I am  very surprised to hear all of the slagging 
that Joey Jordison is getting from  people that have been attending the 
Ministry shows. Regardless of what you might  think of Slipknot pro or con,  their 
recordings have some pretty amazing  drumming on them.  It seems like a good 
match on paper but maybe  it  just doesn't work in practice.
          Jourgensen has been  quite fortunate with drummers over the course 
of his career.  It's too bad  for him that he doesn't have Bill Reiflin on the 
gig anymore.  That guy's a  class act.
There was an interesting interview with him in one of the drum magazines a  
couple of years back where he said in so many words that the drug stuff played 
a  big role in him bailing out.
          Finally,   what's up with Killing Joke, anyone?    Thanks,  Carl  P.
