He’s obviously older and thicker than vintage Jello from 20-30 years back, but it’s actually really nice to see him so energetic and passionate. He was kind of dumpy for a while in the mid 90’s and up until a few years back.

He’s 56 or something now and I think he looks great considering.

Well mid 90s he had a broken limb.

Yeah, I know about his jacked legs (thanks to some a-hole gutter punks). He didn’t perform (except his tedious spoken word stuff) really for quite some time, and when he finally started doing music and concerts again around 2003 or so he was a pretty flabby sack. Watching him was kind of . . . gross.

I’m just saying it’s good to see him looking in better shape.

He got old looking very quickly back in the 90s (after the beating). He had been fairly agile in the early 90s. But he still has his pipes and can remember his lines which is good. The Melvins version is better. Think the other one’s guitar parts were slightly altered.

You know he’s getting old because he’s tucked his t-shirt into his jeans.

No complaints with jello’s stage show. you can tell he’s having a good time and loving what he’s doing.

Yeah, I’ve always liked that about Jello. He always looks like he’s having the greatest time.

Honestly, anyone who can still stage dive over the age of 50…they have my respect. Jello and Iggy, that’s who I know of who do so.

David Yow.

hell yea!

Jello has always been a shirt tucker. He does it usually to show off his star belt buckle.

Yeah, but when you’ve got a paunch you should leave it untucked. It’s like camouflage.
