Like the way, David oozes confidence so effortlessly.

One of the coolest cats I’ve known.

[@piakragh7676]

He looks danish. The mouth, eyes, eyebrows, his hair, skin and his humor ❤️ We danish are a bit crazy with big hearts. 🇩🇰

[@Jamestele1]

He is one of my favorite artists. He really does look Scandinavian, in his expressions. The NY Dolls were actually good cross section of NYC for 1972: the original drummer, Billy Murcia (died in 72) was South American; Johnny Thunders (Genzale) was Italian, bassist Killer Kane was Swedish, rhythm guitarist Sylvain Sylvain (Sylvain Mizrahi) born in Egypt is Middle Eastern Jewish, then the second drummer Jerry Nolan was a nice Irish-Catholic lad). If they could have woven in an African-American, they would have covered all the continents!

[@matthewjdouglas6471]

His name is Johanson not sure where us derives from though

[@SGobuck]

He looks like Mick Jagger and Edward Van Halen...

[@romanmartinez6458]

This is my first timing hearing or seeing him. He's cool.

January 27, 1994 Thanks!

[@axxellein]

TRES Cool, David, Cheers!

[@ggggg8853]

He so looks like mic jagger

[@this_boy-gent_is_a_roy-den2660]

Both were in the 1992 movie, _Freejack._ I never saw that one.

[@patrickc3419]

Agreed, he does!!

[@baronsaturday2103]

Or like Mick Jagger and Eddie van Halen!

[@rogerdodger6025]

New York Dolls were kinda like the Rolling Stones too.

[@omegajrz1269]

​@@rogerdodger6025The New York Dolls were influenced by the Rolling Stones, but they helped influence more bands

Love David Jo

[@gtamediaproductions1]

Mick Jagger's lost Brother?

[@c.d.macaulay66]

Beatrice the Nibbler? I love it. I saw the Dolls in college. I was the only one in my dorm who liked them (I got the campy schtick) and caught a LOT of shit for it. But have taken a lot of satisfaction over the years for being right. I'm sure some of those same people now brag about seeing them. But back in the day . . . I also saw a David Jo show at the Bottom Line to promote his debut solo album. Peter Wolf was in the audience as well. DJ was so hot there were four (!) encores. After the second one, the band wouldn't let him leave the stage. They blocked every exit. He brought Johnny Thunders up onstage to play "Babylon" from Too Much, Too Soon. Johnny was so wasted he couldn't remember the chords to a song he wrote! Now that's a show.

[@Suldog29]

Magnificent performer, but wow was that movie a BOMB. David Jo on stage was the best, though!

[@TheRigomoni]

"everyones throwing up" lol

[@burninglight2628]

Loved him in mr nanny he did a song called rough stuff pretty good

[@lamper2]

Was there ever a bigger bomb than that Car 54 movie? I saw this show at Bottom Line (R.I.P.) He did a great song called "Babbling Brook" and Calling all Angels(not the more famous songs by that title) ANYONE KNOW IF HE WROTE THOSE OR WHO DID THEM FIRST?

[@JiM-SWEET-art]

He looks a bit like Peter Dinklage.

[@ImYourOverlord]

Decent ale, that Newcastle Brown 😁

[@krisscanlon4051]

It's a living lol love you DJ...funny guy and very dry sense of humor

No. Mick Jagger + Peter Dinklage.

The Shabbos joke was awesome! Too bad some entitled millennial will take offense to it 😂

[@CreamNall_]

of course they will.. just thank the lord that there are still a few of us around that still appreciate what true humour is.. JUST THAT.. HUMOUR.. not to offend.. not to belittle.. but just to LAUGH!!!!

[@BPEJS24-7]

@@CreamNall_ Exactly! I'm a millennial (27 currently) and My humor is dark and provocative, but it always triggers the whiny cultists of the modern day. and if something doesn't reflect my personal sense of humor, then I don't get hot about it. I just brush it off and move on. we all need to learn to laugh again. They say we laugh to keep from crying, but I think all people do nowadays is cry and whine and complain. but what could we expect from pigs but grunting? 😉

[@CreamNall_]

@@BPEJS24-7 You are the reason that society will continue into the future with a healthy attitude toward humour, dark or otherwise. In todays society , at 26, they are trying to smash the humour right out of you guys.. The best humour is always OFFSENSIVE.. because its mixed with that TABOO that we shouldnt really say those things, of COURSE we dont really mean them.. look at ricky gervais, if he believed every word of his jokes he would be the biggest assholes in history.. but of course hes not.. I am so very glad that they have not managed to pummel you under their social justice warrior thumbs. You really do give me hope for the future, thanks for replying my friend, you really have brightened my day. :) I know this sounded a little serious, i didnt mean it to be.. but i really do think there is some nefarious attempt at altering society for WHATEVER reason.. (without trying to sound like a tin foil hat wearer) I honestly think something is going on.. how else do you explain WOKE TV programs failing time after time.. losing BILLIONS of dollars in revenue.. YET!!! They continue to be made.. 4 seasons of BAT WOMEN!!!!! hitting an all time low of 3.5 on IMDB yet.. a non woke QUALITY show like 1899 get cancelled after 1 season!!??? Ive seen it happen time after time after time.. until someone explains WHY .. ill continue to think someone is pushing a WOKE agenda from behind the scenes.. cus SOMEONE is paying this WOKE HOLLYWOOD BILL!!! (sorry.. went a bit mental at the end.. hehe) stay safe.. and u keep listening to that dark humour.. darker the better :)

@@CreamNall_ man, shut the fuck up with your sanctimonious crap. you 'offensive comedy is always good' weirdos are worse than the "social justice warriors" you create in your head and get angry at.

David needs to comb his hair back in to a cool Pomp

[@bashafradkin-gelmanopie6593]

David, you are being exploited. Did Newcastle Beer give you anything for selling? You are a commercial without pay! what is your management doing. Also, do you think the Dolls' image is alcoholism?

[@donreed]

AH HA! The PR legwork for the instant film smash-failure --- the pointless and ignoble remake of "Car 54." We will file this under "Tonight Show, Conan's Flameout As Host, Prep Work For." Everything goes in its proper place.
