Back in the late eighties when Gwar was real popular with the skaters, a friend of mine insisted I had to see them. They got a lot of press in D.C. (I believe they're from Richmond) and I had some idea what to expect. But nothing could prepare me for how crazy it was. First off, not only were they popular with the skate crowd but also with the local college students. So just the people in attendance made it surreal enough to begin with. Then the concert began.... Not a real big fan of the music, but everyone should experience the live show once.

GWAR have re-signed with Metal Blade and will have a new CD, "LUST IN SPACE," out this August...

Just read on Blabbermouth that GWAR's finest hour, AMERICA MUST BE DESTROYED, is being re-issued with a bonus DVD that includes both of the accompanying home videos from that album, PHALLUS IN WONDERLAND and TOUR DE SCUM. Sweet! I haven't seen "Wonderland" in ages, it was sick, but funny as hell, stuff. I already have this CD but that bonus DVD may be enough to get me to re-buy.

I love GWAR!!! I must buy some of their discography soon. Also, a quick question, did Lordi take their look from GWAR?

Lordi claims that they never even heard of GWAR when they first came up with their costumes/gimmicks, but I find that rather hard to believe ...

I thought the same thing. I knew of Lordi first (as the won ESC 2006) but soon I found GWAR. Their outfits are almost exactly the same!

I've always thought so too.
GWAR was "killing" a dummy of Lordi's lead singer on stage for a while... I guess that sez it all about how they feel about it

I wish I could take credit for this awesomeness but someone beat me to it: there's a petition online at change.org to get GWAR a gig at the 2015 Super Bowl Halftime show.
Hell, I say why wait till 2015? Let's get'em on the 2014 halftime show. I wanna see GWAR kill Bruno Mars, BBQ him and eat him on the fifty yard line

Signed it! Like 007 said, won't ever happen, but I'll fly the flag anyway, proudly! I'm seeing them in Charlotte on Halloween night. GWAR on Halloween night! How f'n nuts is that going to be? I went ahead & took 11/1 off from work.

Looks like Brockie is dead. It's being reported all over the place.
Damn, if that's true it IS a shame. Been a fan of GWAR for a long time. Dave was quite cluey and switched on when interviewed out of character. It's too bad a lot of people will always judge him based off the stage persona....
