   I say we come up with questions for the band to answer from fans before starting the tour. Good ones, like where did punk start? or, what artists are they listening to with great hope? what acts would each of them like to produce and why? When are they really gonna record in a war zone (i'm thinking Tibet, Baghdad, Baghram, Burma, etc.)? Lady Gaga.. yay, or nay? After 30 years, what do they feel the fans and/or the music-biz still hasn't really "gotten" about the Joke? Is Killing Joke really such an exercise in full, complete self-absorption as it appears, or do they have the listener at all in mind, or ever maybe a popular trend or style that they honestly want to incorporate into their sound? Is WTF after all really "what the fuck?" but they couldn't get away with selling that kind of title back in 1981! so they said, um, "What'sThisFor" instead? Are there any stories or bullshit-anecdotes or declarations from over the years that they joke about
now, or would like to take back? How about you, Jaz, huh?
And what the f at c% is up with the cover artwork for Outside The Gate? (and is that a lock of Geordie's pompadour in that picture?)

Or maybe Folkdevil can again "sequester" *erm*cough'cough* "invite" Jaz this time
before a webcam and make him answer said questions before going onstage that night. (actually, there's an abandoned dvd-rental store on the groundfloor of the Wiltern, so...).
