MELVINS on the ROAD
1999

Here's some pics with captions from Melvins Merch Guy Simon Coffey:

Simon's Wares

He's holding a knife to my neck, I'd just mentioned how I thought Mark D was had a different style to being a bassist in the Melvins to him. Kevin decided I had just said Mark was a better bassist than him! Luckily I talked him down, or I wouldn't be writing this now. Later when i mentioned that I prefered the Nirvana version of 'Teen Spirit' to the Melvins version, the three of them argued amongst themselves as to whom was going to get the pleasure of sliting my throat. Luckily they couldn't decide and I survived again.

Here's a photo of BUZZ with a .45-Magnum, I took it in June when I was on tour with the Melvins. We went out target shooting with his dad, his brother in law, his nephew and a friend of his. Being from New Zealand where we have strict gun laws, it was a blast to shoot a buncha guns...

Me with Dale at 'Elmer in Oregan' where the Melvins introduced me to two ladies, a Kamakaze and a Long Island Ice Tea. Essential this was my first drunken experience in the USA, at the insistence of the Melvins. Hell I was so smashed I ended up whipping out the credit card for dinner! Doh!

Picture is The Roadbull (Jeff) backstage in Vail colorado practising his Midnite Cowboy look. Jeff by the way has one god - Budwieser...
