THE MISFITS MICHALE GRAVES

[@xsp238]

This one of the most genuine, down to earth musicians on the planet!! Great interview from a passionate man.

[@misfit477]

So very nice when I met him

[@Desecrator6]

Even after everything, he smiles. Hearing him talk through a smile makes me smile. I'm glad to have heard his voice.

[@crimsonpunx]

I was looking for an interview with Michael Graves but I didnt expect JON FUCKING TAFFER to be the interviewer. Truly a treat. Loves Jons work.

[@Hunterhopefool]

My exact reaction lol

[@islamicsalami7208]

Jon Taffer?!? WTF?!? I love this dude! I can't believe he's interviewing Graves. Jon is just the best guy all around and is so entertaining. Keep it up!

[@William.Driscoll]

You guys blew the doors off the club in Montreal, in 1997. Thank you

[@MichaelSchaefer1]

Same in Atlanta '97

[@SpiralDownRock]

Michale is such a true talent. More than that he is a humble good man. He is so nice and appreciative to his fans.

[@Dman3827]

I'm so used to seeing Jon yelling at people on bar rescue. Wouldn't never have thought he even was inro punk rock or knew the misfits. Graves is the best thing that has happened to them since 1983 with Danzig. I love the graves era. I wished I got to see them. Only saw the Jerry misfits but watch recorded M.G. misfits concerts all the time since 2000. Amazing voice Michale has. Great interview! I can't believe he worked at IHOP after misfits. I think he's holding back what really was going on to drive him away. He said he was a yes man.

[@trendmassacre8423]

I saw Graves era Misfits open for Megadeth back in 1997, and Graves did excellent!

[@mattmcnulty8363]

What a thoughtful, engaging interview by Jon Taffer. He’s really good at this! And I love Graves-era Misfits. I know he gets a lot of flack for the whole “conservative punk” thing but here, he seems like a pretty chill, grounded guy.

[@franktranks9445]

Conservative punk is an oxymoron. Period.

[@trendmassacre8423]

​@@franktranks9445it's much more common than you think, and who really cares if it's done by Conservatives or Liberals?

[@franktranks9445]

@@trendmassacre8423 if you call yourself punk while simultaneously being conservative, you're a punk in name only. Same goes for liberals btw. This isn't a matter of liberals vs. conservatives.

[@blazeandcyrus]

Michale is a great musician and really good guy. Very cool interview John! Well done

[@PUX420]

interviews with vocalists are always so clear they never get more than 1 inch from the mic

[@imlatinoguy]

Michale is an awesome dude. I went to a concert and he took the time to take pictures with all the fans.

[@jimmyz7218]

A misfits show got cancelled and he did a live solo show at my friend's bar in the area. I'll never forget that

[@trendmassacre8423]

John Taffer and Michael Graves, an unexpected yet GREAT combo!!

[@joesmith9216]

it needs to be said that Michale is one of the best singers ever in the underground, famous monsters has vocal hooks NO ONE else ever pulled off and it sucks as no one seems to acknowledge it. Graves is so talented.

[@Capnsensible80]

Michale Graves and Zoli Teglas are 2 of the most underrated vocalists in punk. Both great singers and amazing dudes all around. There were even some shows 20+ back where Zoli filled in on vocal for Misfits 🤘

[@Evilovexvxxx]

Thank you Jon Taffner for this chat with Michale! This is one of the first ones I have seen and heard that doesn't have negative vibes! I have been following his work for over 20 years and all his projects just goes to show everyone even haters that when the going gets dark there is always light!

[@andrewromero6913]

Damn… I’m the guy sitting in front of the tv playing Xbox lol. But thanks Michael for telling it how it is and I’ll definitely try to get more exposure to different experiences

[@ihonestlydontknowbuthi]

I can feel his passion thru the way he talks and it made me feel somewhat emotional,and I love seeing him talk while smiling🥺🥺

[@cabbshills5732]

You are loved graves, keep making that music!

Jerry literally took over his job and done it much better

[@Capnsensible80]

@@Sabhoh Jerry is a good dude but damn do his vocals suck👎 good thing they got Danzig back cause the Jerry Only on vocals era was awful. Even the die-hard fans admit he's not a good vocalist. You're literally the only person I've ever seen who thinks he sounds good 🤣

[@rogerwaters413]

I’d love to see a Mosfits reunion with Mike. I know everyone does and I think it would be pretty cool.

[@Capnsensible80]

Now that Danzig's back (and has been for quite some time) it's probably never gonna happen, but I always thought it woulda been cool to see

[@charleyrichardson8211]

Great interview

[@marcusg5665]

I have 1 tattoo.. it's a misfits tattoo with 2 werewolves from the Howling and the words "We Bite". I love the original Misfits. That being said. The graves era is better. I loved Michaels voice. You hear all of these stories and the band are kinda bunch of assholes. I wish Graves nothingbut all of the success in the world.

[@briankrane5546]

this is so wierd, how did john taffer end up with this interview??

[@HotPutridVomit]

graves era was top teir.

[@Fukyourfeelingslol]

Wrong.

[@franktranks9445]

Nope. Danzig Era dominates. Graves is absolutely not punk. The Misfits were basically a parody of themselves during Graves era and lost all punk sensibility that they had earlier.

[@erichfrederick9229]

Watch out. The grifters will throw a fit🤪

Doyle said he has no interest in revisiting the Graves era, unfortunately

[@rogerwaters413]

When did he say that? That stinks

[@CorpsebombKeef]

It was at least a few years ago i think. He got asked about it in interviews sometimes

[@daveylocks3039]

Damn shame. The first Glenn Danzig reunion show in Vegas was a complete money grab. $250 for the cheap seats and it sucked. I've seen many many Misfits tribute/cover bands who played much better. An American Psycho/Famous Monsters reunion would rake in the same amount of cash as Glenn reunion, but the crowd would go home with a fond memory of an absolute kickass performance and probably an autograph or two. Nobody can say the same Glenn.

[@Fukyourfeelingslol]

[@teleskopossomnium]

i saw him with misfits twice in 99/00. second one was the last show in orlando. both blew me away. first show was upstate ny with ignite and canibal corpse, his voice was amazing. i was 15 and decided graves was every bit as good if not better than glenn.

michael is the most real person ive ever met in life hes just that cool

[@dgenerated]

Say what you will, but the "Graves era" of the Misfits were a lot of fun live and put on a killer show!.. Don't know much of what Michael has done since leaving the band, nor have I seen him live, but I (still) love his era of the band!.. After Doyle, Chud and Mike quit, I could no longer support the band and says a lot in regard to "Mr Onlys" character when your entire band, even your brother walk out on you!.. Not to mention his version and his singing are abysmal!..

[@chriselathan]

Michale’s entire band just recently walked out on him.

[@anthonyp3450]

@@chriselathan really?! Why would they do that?

[@kaosalakane1979]

Yeah. I got to see them at The Masquerade in Atlanta in August of 1997. Got Doyle's autograph (always been my favorite Misfit) and ended of having to give Mike a safety pin since I had plenty to spare. Something I'll always remember.

[@doktor_ghul]

Pity he didn't take advantage of his name and go with the Misfits monicker " M. T. Graves ". Empty Graves is such a great Misfits name to have.
