They played for troops and dedicated songs to brutal murderers from the stage in San Francisco - I mean, the fucking cheek.
Jello has, and had, principles. He also stuck to them. The rest of the band probably realise that they're fucked without Jello and are now trying to smooth it all over. Fucking hypocritical American punk rock charalatans.
I would never go and see the Kennedys without Jello. I'd love for them to reform, but it would be for all the wrong reasons, and everything they did and everything they said would be hollow and suspect.

Well said that 21 year old
Maybe see you tommorow night at Whistleb.
But I know where I'll defo be next Saturday "Broken and Skint in Bo'ness"
For the record the reason I wanted to go see them last year was for
sentimental reasons but it wouldn't have been the same so they
did me a favour by cancelling.
Although it can't take away the fact that they're still one of my fave bands.
Ali.
