In this first-ever San Franciscan edition of Soft Focus, Ian sits down with Jello Biafra: Dead Kennedys frontman, campus lecture circuit mainstay, and crucial third member of punk's Triumverate of Tremolos (alongside the B52s' Fred Schneider and the recently deceased Lux Interior(RIP)).
While most other participants in what gets labeled punk these days are willing to touch their ass to their forehead in order to please corporate sponsors or weasel their way onto Elimidate, we're constantly psyched to see Jello stick with the principles and obnoxiousness which made us etch the DK logo into every piece of exposed wood our 13-year-old hands came across. Even when that means shitting on our advertisers.
