Fan Mail '97

Muffy,Stinky,Erin,J,Gretc erinjay@ix.netcom.com Wed Jan 1 19:24:31 PST 1997

Dear Polkacide, We hear the guy with the spikes on his head is gay and a wuss,say it ain't so. We have a corral of VERY young "women" over here and they are desperate for some Neilbasa. By the way the keishka was a good thing for our pre-church orgy this Christmas. Gretchen is sitting here in her panties drinking beer and fondling her black eyed peas (its new year's day) as we partake of the ritual pork and bacon which is also pork. J 's having his wife Erin bottle feed him (beer) he is also in his skivvies. Erin and J are very happpy that its 1997 now because last year sucked because Furey died (We all think that sucked). And now you dont have a fucking manager. Muffy wants to be a polka slut, she missed out on the original opportunity because she is just now turning 21 and can legally drink beer. we're almost positively convinced that we love polkacide, but that white guy who plays clarinet needs a fucking haircut and a keilbasa trim (it's too big). yoohoo aloha to the best of new year's wishes under der longa veena tree! from all of us in capitol yard at Hinga Poo and volunteer pee pee head pals society, corrupt from the gill sides out, if you look sideways at the opposite side of the captured Pacific mackerel (good if you stuff it with onions and plenty of salt, and drain off the execess hydrocarbons). Thinking of you lovingly--all of us.

Mrs. Basa skaitner@heald.edu Mon Jan 6 08:02:11 PST 1997

Hey I just want to know who are those sluts who want my Basa? And he's not a wuss...only strange (Well there was that thing for linky but he included muffy too. Give your BOH date on e-mail (it's in Jan). Yeah 1997

Cindy Crawford n.a. Mon Jan 6 16:53:57 PST 1997

I can tell linky, Muffy et al that Neil Basa is definitely NOT gay, or a wuss. but a most studly sort of beer drinking man. Mrs. Basa is a VERY lucky woman, I only wish he were available

Hey you studs, I heard your gig and i thougt it was studly, you guys couldent hit a strait key if your life depended on it. I play in every band alive frequently touring with mac-daddy and the stud muffins and i can honestly say you guys are sad. you are a discrace to the music world and i pray to god you never come to my town. my boy friend rico hates you to. HEY GUYS GET A LIFE!!!!!

Matt...if that is your real name, not a very good attempt, the vitriol is just not there...it seems more like bile! If you want to insult Polkacide you're going to have to take it all the way to the bridge, my man. Leave your weak stuff in the car, homepride! Anyway, have a nice forever.

Hi Polkacide. I like you, and have looked for your record everywhere from Santa Fe(but not Hale-bop) to Detroit. Could you send me some info so i can get a recording? You polka me so well.

PAUL#2 WANIPF29@GBVAXA.UWGB.EDU Thu Apr 24 10:49:00 PDT 1997

It's true!!! A Polkacide webpage!!! Life is too good!! It's a crime that Polkacide hasn't yet played the annual festival known as Pulaski Polka Days in Pulasi, WI. The third weekend of every July. It's three pabst glistening days of nonstop polka!!!!! People camp out for the entire weekend and do nothing but consume pabst and polka, polka, polka!!!! I am considering a flight out to SF for the soul purpose of seeing an actual Polkacide show, cuz chances are they will never quite make it near Titletown, USA. Does or can Polkacide tour?????? Is vinyl availible at all, even for lotsa $$$$???? I'm a desperate drunk!!!!! uh........bye.

Erick Jensen, Jupiter cburf@aol.com Thu Apr 24 20:01:29 PDT 1997

Hey Johnny, Your web site is looking very cool. I'm just Starting to get into it. Looking foward to the Polkacide tunes May 17 at Springfest'97 in downtown Berkeley. I'll send you our press release on Monday. Should I send it to this address? Cheers, Erick

Polka music is this highest expression of the musical art form. One does not so much play polka as live it. Keep up the good work!

polkacide is the best band in the entire world

Heino P. polarazierter@heinovision.com Sat May 3 15:45:05 PDT 1997

You are doing a great service by keeping this site up and running. Polkacide is one of the finest American musical acts of all time. I'm too old to get out and go to their shows anymore, but my love for their music is everlasting.

My Norwegian grandmother in Iowa exposed to me a lot (some would call it an "overdose", but what they do know) of Lawrence Welk during my early formative years, and I naturally evolved and grew into Polkacide as I got older.

As long as there are fine upstanding people like you are out there to carry the flame, polka will never die!

Much thanks, HP

Dear Polkacide, We love POLKA!!! After listening to Frankie Yankovic, it was a damn good pleasure to hear such a fine new sound. We attend school at Villanova University in Philadelphia and desperately want more information about your group. We definitely want you to play at our style of wedding. Please get back to us and let us know more about you and your wonderful music. Keep the accordian tuned...

Yo Alistair, greetings from yer fellow Kumar survivers in Montreal. Were just in the Bay area, and narrowly missed yer performance at the Berkeley spring fest last week. If you're still doing Qi stuff, check out Fong Ha in Berkeley. He does lots of standing practice and has a completely different approach compared to His Kumar-ness. Find Fong at 1709 Tacoma ave, N. Berkeley, 510-524-4718. Glad to hear you're still tearing up the musical scene out there. Give us a call if you ever get out this way.

Look forward to seeing you on the 21st!!

I had too much fun (is that possible?!?) with 2 very fine members of the band this past weekend. However, honesty compels me to admit that I am seriously underqualifed to be a Polka Slut. Nevertheless, I look forward to meeting the rest of the band!

Hey Polkacide,

Your wav files are super. Any one of your tunes would make an appropriate theme song for the DREW CAREY SHOW. I will be listening to the wav files as I build some scale model warplanes. The first is a Polish Air Force biplane from 1939. I think the Polkacide button makes an interesting squadron badge. SELL ME AN ALBUM - preferably CD !

Can someone tell me where to get more info about The Burning Man "event" in Nevada this year? I know the dates are August 27th-29th and it takes place in The Black Rock Desert. I also heard that it costs $65.00, but that is the total of my knowledge. Where can I learn more? Quick, that's only a few days away! Thanks.

Okay, um... the last time I saw a Polkacide record was in 1988. Is there a way to obtain any format of sound recordings by this group? I really want to buy a CD or two... Youse guys are FUN!! I live in Maine and it's hard to get to S.F. from here.

Hiya, where the hell can I get albums? I do a show on college radio in Fresno (KFSR 90.7) and have a segment called "ritual Polkacide." I am forcing people to realize that you guys are the best band EVER. I will not accept any arguments from anyone regarding this point. You guys MUST play in Fresno (I command thee to) and come in during my show and prove to people these facts. MARK

PolkaMomma SlutzRUs@polka.com Sun Oct 19 20:11:54 PDT 1997

Some sluts you are! Here the guys brave going to Walnut Creek, and no one shows to dance!!! Think all you need to do is sleep with 72% of the band members??!!? A REAL polkaslut will roll in beer at the most pc of places and not lose one inch of tease to her bouffant! And why was there only one St. Pauli girl at that 20 Tanks gig? At the very least, John Lieb should have shown! Anyway, just wonderin'.......

Impor noones@home Thu Oct 23 12:09:07 PDT 1997

Right on, Polka Momma! These modern women can talk the talk but they hardly ever flip up those skirts like the polkasluts of olden days! Well, lucky for us we have our memories, what's left of 'em anyway, and shining examples like you to turn to in this sorry time of sit-down duck dancers and polka prudery!

Johnny Jack JandJ@thebeach Fri Oct 24 08:43:51 PDT 1997

Yeah you right Polkamamma, and thanks for clearing up the thing about Walnut creek (Neil told me we were playing in Beernut Creek). Anyway we do miss the Polkasluts at these shows (although we do try and recruit new ones) but hey Polkasluts, Polka Pals and Polkabratz have another shot at Beernut Creek this Sunday, 1:PM @the Faultline...burp

PolkaMomma guess Sat Oct 25 08:10:40 PDT 1997

There's this extremely provacative rumour swirling through the ethernet that Polkacide is giving away something really special to the best (un)dressed Polkaslut, Polkabrat or PolkaManiac at the Walnut Creek show (ooops, excuse me, Beernut Creek)? Is this so?

Robby Morris king_zolaf@msn.com Thu Oct 30 14:23:36 PST 1997

Did I hear that you guys are gonna open up for Chris Isaak for a televised Christmas special on NBC?

Wow, that would be so rockin'. I'd be TOTALLY into that.

Word.

JC Clone jcclone@pipeline.com Thu Oct 30 16:57:12 PST 1997

I've loved polka since I attended school at the Univ. of Wisconsin-Stevens Point in the 70's. Must be in the genes since my granny is a Pole. Used to get a kick out of watching this 3-piece polka band play in this tiny combination bar/liquor store on Sunday mornings before the Packer's game. The performance would inevitably be interrupted by a couple of drunk pollacks getting into a fight. Polkacide would scare the shit out of those mainstream polka bands back in the midwest! Still though, I would love to see you guys play at one of the big polkafests in Ohio, Pennsylvania or Wisconsin. Have ya noticed how commercial the "Chicken Dance" has gotten? Hell, they play it at every hockey rink in North America! Still, nobody chickendances like Polkacide!!!

muffler none Thu Oct 30 18:15:53 PST 1997

Dear Polka Momma: I write this, sadly, from the SF jail. I had rounded up a wild bunch of young and promising sluts to go the whole way to beernut creek. Some guy in his 70's from the Univ. of Wisconsin ran us off the road, their car being filled with geriatric (less promising) wannabe sluts.KB hijacked a beer truck (I think It was Miller) (sorry) and tracked down the animal. She caught up with him, flashed him, and he veered over the freeway guardrail and landed upside down in a McDonalds parking lot. He was killed instantly. the "sluts" (if you can call them that) fared no better.Anyway. KB came back to get us and we were on our way. Unfortunately,Someone called the police and we were arrested right after the Caldecott tunnel. All awaiting sentencing now for manslaughter. Oh well!! Maybe we can get polkacide to play at our benefit. Love, your pals.

Mr. Basa is making his famous cornbread-shaped-like-corn cornbread and I'm making my grandmother's famous Green Jello! Maybe 10 people give or take so let me know ASAP so that I know how many beer finger bowls I need to set out. Love, P.M.

Impie beerbash@myhouse Wed Nov 26 12:32:35 PST 1997

So sorry ladies, but I'm spending Thanksgiving in Cabo with Janet Reno and the gang from Justice. Its a little anti-drug junket that I got myself invited along on as an independant consultant. I'm sure you know I wish I could be there, but after Mr. Basa's hi-jinks with the corn shaped cornbread last year, I'm afraid I'd have to spend all my time sitting down. See you fine Polka Mamas Friday at the Bottom of the Hill though, and we'll polka 'til the turkey comes back to haunt us!!!

P.M. SharonK@heald.edu Fri Nov 28 15:38:58 PST 1997

Oh, Impy...I really wish you had made it. Mr. Basa didn't have you there to torture, so he got into it with the Rev. and I'm afraid Lord is now having our wedding anulled (you remember, he married us in that twisted banana ritual) just to spite him! It wasn't so much what he did with the corn-shaped cornbread, as what he wouldn't do with the Green Jello! Thank goodness we had the The Ropin' Cowgirl here, or I would never had been able to keep the rest of the guests in attendance...and P-cide from having to choose sides over who does the Chicken Dance better. By the way, the Lovely Rita passed the PolkaSlut test and now seems to be In Like Flint (wink wink). So there! all you so-called P.S.'s. You're about to lose another one for your laziness in coming to shows!

Well, at least that handsome devil Impor Hisky hasn't been snatched up yet. Do you think he would send me his underwear if I ask real nice and show up at the next show you have out here???? I promise to show him mine.

Muffy mickyc@sfsu.edu Sat Nov 29 11:10:05 PST 1997

Dear PMama- I regret an unfortunate event prevented me and Stinky from even KNOWING about our Turkey day possibilities.I was trying out some possible sluts for your fine foxy accordian player on tukey day eve and Stinky happened to have forgotten his lipbalm. I was caught, tried to explain it was a selfless act of loyalty to my favorite band, and lo, he smashed our whole home office to bits. And then he wouldnt even let me out on Fri night to have some beers. Sorry, I hope you can forgive, because he never can. Sadly, Muffinski

Impor beerbong@mylips Mon Dec 1 10:50:44 PST 1997

We're really sorry you missed our big show Muffy! We played real good and drank lots of beer with the polka pals. We especially missed you because we all brought our turkey carcasses for your art project and when you didn't show that crazy cousin of mine started firin' em into the polka pit and pretty soon everybody was spinnin' on their asses in the grease from the ten turkeys. Now we're afraid we might get sued by the guy who got the carcass stuck on his head! Thank heaven our next show is before Xmas not after! P.S. To the polka slut in the great state of Wisconsin, if I wore any underwear I'd send you a pair!

Muffy mickyc@sfsu.edu Thu Dec 4 14:09:25 PST 1997

Dear Impy, P-ma, and P-cide; Im crying in my Jack Daniels and Milk (a White Redneck, for those of you not hip to the latest Cocktail Nation trend) because of what I done. I missed the opportunity to relieve you of your carcasses and then I missed the gallery deadline on my art project, and had to use leftover stuffing and cranberry sauce to make that giant weiner dog, and it just wasnt the same. I had hoped to make a great po mo statement about the juxtaposition of jive turkeys and old meat in the mod prim scene, and it ended up a sad attempt to replicate that unreplicable enigma--the canine special one of Mr. Basa's beloved compisition. This has been more than I can take, so at your next show I guarantee I will be there, drunk, and ready to whip hovever many sluts I can muster up into a frenzy. Mr.& Ms. Basas corn ritual is not to be missed (so I hear) so next year, Impy, you gotta blow off Janet and we gotta go, if even just to take pictures (to sell) Luv, Muffi

Give us this day our foamy head, And forgive us our spillage's, As we forgive those who spill against us. And lead us not to incarceration, But deliver us from hangovers. For thine is the beer, The bitter, and The lager, Forever and ever, BARMEN.
