Editing Marilyn Manson and the Spooky Kids Newsletters

== April 1991 Newsletter ==

=== Hello Spooksters ===

We are recording new stuff-"[[Thrift]]", "[[Learning to Swim]]", "[[Big Mother]]", - and the old favorite "[[Junk the Magic Dragon]]". So we will make those available as soon as possible.

By the way, april is the '''SATANIC LOVE REVIVAL''' month so call and leave your most evil messages. 972-0541!

We are currently sorting through hundreds of hours of tape, picking "the best of" the [[Answering Machine Messages|answering machine messages]] which will appear locally on a [[Big Black Bus|double cassette compilation]] and will eventually end up on our studio album. (Which we promis is on its way soon, thanks to you.)

=== Here's our critic picks for the month ===
<pre>
Best Video: Frankenhooker
Best Tape or C.D.: Tad: "8-Way Santa"
Best Motion Picture: still remains...SILENCE OF THE LAMBS
Best Drug: We pick Mushrooms for April, dry or moist
Best Sexual Act: The strong arm fellatio combo.
</pre>

=== Shows this month ===

'''This will be our 1 year anniversary show as well as [[Scott Putesky|Daisy Berkowitz's]] birthday. So fuck FRONT 242 and come see us goddamnnittt!'''(sorry young ones, this is 21 and older)


=== Key PHRASE TO DECIPHER FOR BIG CASH AND PRIZES... ===
(If you figure out the hidden meaning, call 972-0541 and win either a t-shirt or video. first correct caller only.)

Lisa stumbled from the trailer, smelling like Devil's food and semen. As she neared the pick up truck, "SWEET" Bill caught her and forced her back down to a level where he could once again see the roots of her bad bleach job.

FIGURE IT OUT AND CALL 972-0541...


=== *****also***** ===
We will award a lifetime pass to all of our shows to the person who performs the best ritualistic murder.
if you manage to elude the PIGS, we would love to have you at all of our concerts.

We would like to congratulate KEVIN for being prankster of the month. Aside from masturbating, he spent all of his free time calling the numbers we suggested. It's fun, he tells me. So try it. Maybe you can be thee King of pranks next time. (YOU WILL BE REWARDED GENEROUSLY WITH SEX DRUGS AND ACTION FIGURES)

SO CALL ANY AND ALL OF THE FOLLOWING NUMBERS: try to call 5 or 6 times a day for optimum results.


'''1) the request list'''

call WSHE on sunday night from 9-11. 550-wshe

call WKPX everyday all day and harass all those retarded little fuckers. 572-1335

Call WLRN Monday nights at 12 midnight and tell BOB SLADE to play us and say, "ACID IS GROOVY, KILL THE PIGS." this will insure airplay. 523-7681


'''2) the prank list'''

call the Button South every day after 4 p.m. ask when we're playing. 454-4880.

call Reunion Room at least twice a day and ask when we're playing and when the after party show is. Say you heard it on the radio. call call call 491-2940

call this place called "Looney Tunes" and ask them if they will perform "the beastiality-necrophilia-fire-dance at your 16th birthday party." call call 785-9700. 

now most important------
this guy, Chris Whitney, has been leaving obscene messages on the Spooky Kids hotline. However, he is not a fan. And I just happened to find out his number. 341-3190! when you call make sure it's late at night and ask: "Are you still selling your Lionel Richie Album collection? call call 341-3190!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

making these easy calls helps us (you) and it makes the "we" stronger. Against (them). We don't want to be them so we must be better at being the (we).

'''BE EXACTLY WHO YOU ARE'''

'''I AM JUST YOU.'''

together, we can make them change, instead of fighting so hard to be accepted.

<pre>
If that doesn't
work we'll swoop
down on the towns
and kill everyone
that isn't beautiful
</pre>
'''LOVE [[Marilyn Manson|MARILYN]]'''



== May 1991 Newsletter ==
=== Children ===
sad things have happened since we last spoke. But first I would like to welcome all of the newcomers and thank the rest of the family for your support at Reunion Room and Club Nu.

It is sad that some of your parents have opened letters like this, your letters, and read them. They have banished their children to their rooms, retracted them like small pink pinalluses on a dogs underbelly. Ashamed.

Your parents are afraid of you because you can and are doing everything they cant and that scares them, makes them feel old...they hate us more than they love us most of the time.

'''What they don't understand is:''' How to cope with their fear like we do.

FEAR IS AWARENESS AND AWARENESS IS ONLY A FORM OF LOVE. TOTAL FEAR=TOTAL LOVE. once you give into fear it ceases to exist and all that's left is love. TRUE LOVE CASTS OUT ALL FEAR. IF YOUR PARENTS OR BOYFRIENDS OR GIRLFRIENDS ARE afraid OF ME (YOU) THEN THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THEM!

SO PLEASE, to all of you who are still living in fear of yourself and being the YOU in OUR world of IS:

<pre>
let ego die,
cease to exist,
follow us downstream.


FUCK KILL STEAL LIE

these are just paper words

FUCK KILL STEAL LIE

why are we afraid?

did it change your life to read those words?

FUCK KILL STEAL LIE

say it.

does it hurt your mouth?

</pre>

=== Hear, Say, Read, See, what you want ===
don't let their guilt stop you, their rules they made up, their sins they created.

guilt is a snake outsiders grow in the spotless, kitchens to bake in their pies for their angry dinner parties snakes that squirm in your bellies, twisting your intestines then your head. Eating your vertebrea, making you spineless, hiding in your mouth, whispering with your lips. '''RISE UP AND BE YOU AND NEVER SACRIFICE FOR SOMEONE ELSE'S GUILT.''' Don't sell out your rights for college tuition money.


=== May Shows ===
'''May 10''' at WEEKENDS in Boca Raton. ALL GOOD GODDAMN AGES INVITED. (wear an x on your forehead and receive our new single "[[Learning to Swim]]." meet me after show.

=== chocolate COW ===
due to the overwhelming mail we have recieved on behalf of the chocolate COW, we have added this new advice column. so in the future please adress your problems to dear chocolate COW, p.o. box 191190 miami beach, fl 33139.


dear chocolate COW,

i've been playing guitar for a rock band for a few years but unlike the spooky kids we are a posotive-message band. our soft rock is uplifting. anyway, recently i met a nice young man who also plays guitar and he and i went to the movies and took several long walks on the beach. everything seemed peachy until i heard the rumors that he was actually in love with MARILYN MANSON. is he? should i still love him? is [[Twiggy|gordy white]] really gay??!!
I'm not average
but I am confused,
JIM CANACHO


DEAR JIM,

I LOVE YOUR BAND BUT I THINK YOU SHOULD DISCONTINUE YOUR AFFAIR WITH GORDY "THE HILLSID E STRANGLER". ALTHOUGH I CAN'T VERIFY THE RUMOURS OF HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH MR. MANSON, I CAN SAY THAT EVENTUALLY YOU TWO SHOULD GROW APART BECAUSE OF GORDY'S FONDNESS OF SLAYER AND YOUR OBVIOUS PENCHANT FOR DOING THE WILL OF god. KEEP WRITING GOOD SONGS, BUT KEEP YOU SEX LIFE SIMPLER AND HAPPIER BY ADOPTING A BABY CALF.


<pre>
dear COW,
who's chad?
signed,
TRACY SEGAL
</pre>


WELL TRACY THAT DEPENDS. THE CHAD WE REFER TO MOST OFTEN IS [[Chad McCabe|MY COUSIN]] FROM CANTON, OHIO. THE OTHER POSSIBILITIES RANGE ANYWHERE FROM THE HALF-KOREAN CLERK AT KINKO'S COPIES. THE GAS STATION ATTENDANT AT THE bp ON THE CORNER OF MCNAD AND POWERLINE OR THE MYSTERY ORGAN PLAYER FOR THE BAND AMBOOG-A-?

== August 1991 Newsletter ==

=== dearest spooks ===
As always, i must commend you on your wonderful attendance to all of the july shows. thanks to everyone who took the trip to west palm beach--and we apologize that the sound system was an utter failure. and for those of you that missed our july 11 appearance at the butthole south, we did bring THE CHOCOLATE COW. i can't say for sure if he will ever return--that depends on how bad you want him...AND!!!if you didn't notice july 19th at washington square marked the debut of our newest spooky kid, [[Sara Lee Lucas|SARA LEE LUCAS]], we have decided to retire the yamaha rx8 drum machine, in exchange for this cute, little pudwacker.

=== some facts you should know about SARA LEE LUCAS: ===
<pre>
FAVORITE BOOK: julia child's 10 favorite cake recipes
FAVORITE VIDEO: henry: portrait of a serial killer
FAVORITE BAND: us
FAVORITE CARTOON CHARACTER: fred, the suave fucker from SCOOBY DOO
FAVORITE TOY: black susie doll
</pre>

=== THE FOLLOWING IS A BRIEF INTERVIEW CONDUCTED BY CHAD McCABE DURING HIS WONDERFUL STAY IN SCENIC POMPANO BEACH ===
'''CHAD:''' may we discuss your subject matter?

'''MANSON:''' of course.

'''CHAD:''' does the song "[[Strange Same Dogma|STRANGE SAME DOGMA]]" advocate the burning of witches?

'''MANSON:''' absolutely not. the song is from their point of view. the phrase, "burn the witches" is spoken in a sarcastic tone which is why it is followed by "don't take time to sew your stitches." the song is about persecution. witches were the best metaphor i could use to express my point.

'''CHAD:''' what it the story behind the chocolate cow?

'''MANSON:''' the whole story comes to those who look for it. but for the most part, you just need to accept the fact that all good chocolate comes from COW.

'''CHAD:''' what is [[Satan on Fire|SATAN ON FIRE]]?

'''MANSON:''' satan on fire is a band in town that calls themselves "christian death metal." they hate the spooky kids because we are what they call "satanic-bisexual-substance-abusers." but to show them i can love anyone, we are going to let them play with us on the 29th at BUTTHOLE SOUTH.

'''CHAD:''' is [[Twiggy|gordy white]] really your lover?

'''MANSON:''' no comment.


=== LETTERS TO DEAR COW: (by the way, these are all legitimate) ===

dear cow,

does [[Marilyn Manson|marilyn manson]] have a girlfriend? does he have his eye on any particular girl? is he interested in the slutty type or fun, nice outgoing girls-or maybe weird ones? when he has sex does he think of it as getting fucked or making love? or is he in love with his own gender? is this too personal?

<pre>
love,
blue roses
</pre>

DEAR BLUE ROSES. WHAT IS THAT NAME? ANYWAY, MR. MANSON DOES LIKE GIRLS OF ALL KINDS. IT JUST TAKES THE RIGHT LUNCHBOX TO WIN HIS HEART.

=== prank for AUGUST ===
everyday between 6p.m. and 2 a.m. call DAVE at 946-8960. do not tell him who you are or where you got his number. just read him this story:

<pre>
Did I ever tell you that Mrs. McCave
had twenty-three sons and she named them all Dave?

Well she did. And that wasn't a smart thing to do.
You see, when she wants one and calls out, "Yoo-Hoo!
Come into the house, Dave?" she doesn't get one
All twenty-three Daves of hers come on the run!

This makes things quite difficult at the McCaves'
As you can imagine, with so many Daves.
And often she wishes that, when they were born,
She had named one of them Bodkin Van Horn
And one of them Hoos-Foos. And one of them Snimm.
And one of them Hot-Shot. And one Sunny Jim.
And one of them Shadrack. And one of them Blinkey.
And one of them Stuffy. And one of them Stinkey.
Another one Putt-Putt. Another one Moon Face.
Another one Marvin O'Gravel Balloon Face.
And one of them Ziggy. And one Soggy Muff.
One Buffalo Bill. And one Biffalo Buff.
And one of them Sneepy. And one Weepy Weed.
And one Paris Gartners. And one Harris Tweed.
And one of them Sir Michael Carmichael Zuff
And one of them Oliver Boliver Butt
And one of them Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFare...
But she didn't do it. And now it's too late.
