PiercingMetal Goes To New York Comic Con & Anime Festival 2010: Day 3 (Part Two)
Welcome back my fellow Comic Book fans, I am so glad that you could once again join us for the documenting of this years Comic Con. It is without question one of the most daunting things I had ever attended as a member of the media because I wanted to bring you into the Javits Center with my words and images and I think that I have managed to do so with the previous five chapters in the tale. Don’t worry, you can take a deep breath now, as this will be the final chapter about the Con and you can return to your day in peace when we are done. Let’s get this party started.

“You Must See It To Believe It” by Gorgeous Frankenstein
Artist: Gorgeous Frankenstein
Title: “You Must See It To Believe It”
Label: The End Records
Release Date: 9/28/2010
Genre: Horror Punk
Rating: 2.25/5
Gorgeous Frankenstein is a band that features former Misfits guitarist Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein and his wife Gorgeous George (Frankenstein). Their name is an obvious play on both their identities and the DVD “You Must See It To Believe It” is their first release of this kind. Having seen the band in action before I admit that I was rather intrigued about what would be on it because there is a very interesting “presence” being put out there by Doyle and company. During a show he thunders around the stage like some angry Horror Punk leviathan and all the while smashing and tearing at the strings on his custom Annihilator axe. The show I caught had Argyle Goolsby from Blitzkid on vocals and Dr. Chud (also another former Misfit) on the drums. Gorgeous George’s tasks during the gigs include performance on a stripper pole, backing vocals and other antics to get the crowd more into the show. Like I said, it’s a very interesting evening of entertainment and vastly different from what people see during a Misfits show. That being said I did feel a little let down when the DVD amounted to a lengthy infomercial about the bands backstage preparations and the fun that they have there. Granted it is done with their hearts in the right place, but with only snippets of live performance and no full on tunes outside of the two official videos, the casual fan might feel a little cheated by the release. There is a lot of crowd commentary before the main feature begins and much of this was taken from the B.B. King Blues Club performance of 2008. Since I attend a lot of shows at the venue, I was laughing aloud as I realized that I too see a lot of these crazies while doing my thing. It’s nice to see some of these folks getting a little more moment in the sun (or under the moonlight depending on your preference). From this particular show we see some sound check time and the bands making their grand entrance to the stage but there is absolutely nothing in terms of a full song from this show which was a shame because like I said I was there and it was a blast. I felt that the fans would have eaten this up like zombie’s to fresh brains had they presented more in terms of the live material.
