I get the sense that, as bittersweet as it is cuz they clearly loved the guy, life post-Brockie is a lot less chaotic and easier to manage for the band. He was a force of nature and was, to me at least, the heart of the group but there's a lot of carefully worded comments about how his behavior could be problematic at times. It's obvious they miss him still, but it had to be tough to be in a band with him.Now everyone can have a complete KRULL lifestyle.

Watched the Docu right after it hit Shudder. Was really good.
GWAR hit at the right time for me. I was 14 and a buddy had gotten a bootleg tape with a few of their songs. Then 2 years later they toured thru NOLA. Went to see them and had a blast.
Oddly when Green Jello hit I just figured it was GWAR in new costumes.
