Darby Crash

So if you want to save yourself eight grand, get your diving gear on.

so after they released their gi album their vocalist darby crash died by suicide which is likely why they stopped making music yeah they are a band that influenced so many other punk rock bands that you love plus they have some pretty special band members so pat smear who went on to nirvana and then obviously the foo fighters yeah then the iconic belinda carlisle also did a year on the drums

Belinda Carlyle is one of the coolest women ever.

I think about this on the regular.

We can't have something this loud.

So Paul, who turned into Darby Crash, just wrote germs.

That's what made people sick.

That's how they made people sick.

He and his brother Hunt played in Iggy Pop's band and also David Bowie's supergroup, Tin Machine.

Darby Crash was born in 1958, real name Jan Paul Beahm.

He was a punk rock frontman and lyricist for the L.A. band The Germs.

Tracy Thorne, the aforementioned one who was on a massive attack single, was born in 1962.

Yeah.

But, like, maybe Darby Crash or somebody deflated that by just being such a mess and being kind of totally uncategorizable that they started, like, a different kind of snowball rolling or a different conversation.

Right.

And so by the time we get to like 85 or something, and you're hearing Forget the Swan and all that stuff, I think, I mean, we had the cure, which was probably the closest thing to that kind of feminine, like, I'm just going to expose myself.

totally

so totally in the same through I wanted to I thought about taking something from Roxy Music because while they don't sound punk they were so cool in all the kind of things we're talking about about transforming and reinventing yourself and playing around with gender and stuff like that but I thought about also Roxy was so huge to the LA punk scene, all the, all the glam, the glitter kids like Darby crash and, um, you know, Joan jet and all those kids, uh, loved Roxy music.

as did the Sex Pistols and all the London punk kids.

They would have been raised on Roxy Music because that was what was weird experimental music at that time.

Sid Vicious turned out, actually that was, oh no, here he is over here.

Sid Vicious is right next to Pauline Black, but actually that was meant to be Darby Crash.

Oh, that makes sense.

So yeah, so over there to the far end of the last upper, I call that the last upper painting.

West returned to ER for three episodes during the 15th and final season.
