Episode 97 -The Strange Case of the "Lost" Misfit
from I Wanna Party With Bob · host Bob Macpherson
What would you say if I told you there has been a fifth member of The Misfits out there, hiding under our very noses for the last 40 years - unknown, unloved, unwanted? You might say I’m crazy, but here it is - proof. This episode is part mystery, part detective story and finally, once the mystery is solved, an interview with Dan Ziegler (or Sam Haines), the “lost” Misfit. Dan (Sam) has been quiet these last 40 years and for good reason. The always looming threat of retributuion from Danzing and Jerry Only if they go public? Maybe. Demonic forces and the terror they bring if they came clean? Also a maybe. What I can tell you is this - if you listen, you’ll hear the story of this unfortunate 5th Misfit, but you’ll leave with a little hope. You see, this person turned it around after being removed from the band and has started their own empire of food and drinks. You’ll have to listen to the episode for more details, I don’t want to have “All Hell Break Loose” by giving you all the details here and now! You’ll also hear parts of three tracks that the lost Misfit blared and blazed some saxaphone on, that missed the final cut of “Walk Among Us”, which are “20 Eyes”, “Skulls” and “I Turned Into A Martian”. Unreleased! Unheard in 40 years! RARE RARE RARE!!! You heard it here on the Bobcast first, folks! I even threw in four Misfits covers for good measure by Shades Apart, Rebecca Lorna, Mikey & His Uke and Entombed! Good lord, this one is amazing. Aaaand, there is a brand new Crusty’s Corner featuring Val Knox of The Anti-Queens and Black Cat Attack, talking music, Misfits and More!

What this episode covers
The Misfits released what some say is their greatest record in 1982, "Walk Among Us". Almost no one knows that there was a fifth Misfit that recorded tracks for that record, though they have been lost for almost 40 years. In this episode, I've tracked down this "Lost" Misfit, the 5th member of the band that tooted on several classic Misfits tunes for a short time. Songs like "20 Eyes", Skulls" and "I Turned Into A Martian" became true epics of songwriting with this saxaphone wielding wildperson. This episode features my interview with Dan Ziegler (or Sam Haines), the Misfits missing link, plus snippets of several of these extremely rare and unreleased songs! You also get four Misfits covers in this one by Shades Apart, Rebecca Lorna, Mikey & His Uke and Entombed!
