More Flavor: Tribute Biafra Five-O feat. Jello Biafra and the Melvins

Mr. Jello Biafra is one of the Bay Area's most distinguished public gentlemen, and his 50th birthday deserves recognition of the most esteemed caliber. But how to honor the articulate mania of the Dead Kennedys' voice, the head honcho of Alternative Tentacles, the social critic, and subject of one of Wesley Willis' best songs? True to form, Jello has done himself proper with two shows at the Great American. Tonight, he plays with a new band, alongside openers and fellow punk veterans the Melvins. Their original lineup reunites for a few classics, and Drunk Injuns, Los Olvidados, Triclops!, and Akimbo also spew some noise for the occasion.
