The original Misfits lineup, which includes original singer/songwriter Glenn Danzig, original bassist Jerry Only, and long-time guitarist Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein will reunite for the first time since 1983. The reunited Misfits will headline punk rock festival Riot Fest in Chicago (September 16-18, 2016) and Denver (September 2-4, 2016).
A fitting choice to headline, The Misfits defined an original sound that extended beyond the punk and hardcore community with Danzig's deep, baritone voice, Only's thundering bass lines, catchy melodic choruses, and short but catchy songs, often horror and sci-fi themed. Fans will have their first chance in over 30 years to see this particular lineup of The Misfits, the one that first impressed audiences so much starting back in 1977.
