R.I.P. mighty Mojo. One of my favorite shows of all time was seeing him with Skid waaaay back in the day. His energy was just pure, rocking good times. ❤
Watched MoJ0 open for the Ramones in Philly....late 80's....what a Show. He came out Loaded on shrooms and Danced across the Bar Top. When the Ramones took the Stage, I got scrunched to the edge of the Front and was trapped there the entire time. Its only my youth that saved me from getting my ears blown out from the P.A.. R.I.P. Mr. M0j0 Man.
@@OnyxXThePunch They respect him enough to give him a landslide victory in the election without cheating like your despicable puppet masters have attempted to do. But it will be to no avail. Trump is going to be your President for another 4 years son, so you better get used to the idea. And we will stop you from slaughtering innocent babies before he finishes his 2nd term. Deal with it.
A legend who hopefully kicked down the door to the afterlife and told the boss there would be changes. A rabble-rouser with no equals. We all pale in comparison. Rest well, sir. We all have to go, but your loss will be felt greatly.
Drummer walks onto the stage with no sticks and two beers. My kind of band. Especially when the loudest outspoken man in the room has a microphone and guitar.
Saw Mojo with Skid Roper open for the Pogues in 1986 at the original 9:30 Club in DC. Heard their music on WHFS so I was familar with most of the songs they performed that night. What a blast, even though my fiance was a bit shocked. RIP Mojo, I'll remember you always.
Mojo was very, very lucky to have produced a few music videos when MTV was so desperate they would play ANYTHING. I remember in 1981 coming home from high school ay 4pm and hearing him "sing" that "I wanna be doin' some sin with Martha Quinn!!" Hahaha. That'll got him on MTV. Yup.
I listened to Mojo Nixon a lot before, I came back and searched him up to check if he is still touring and my heart skipped a beat when the first search result was about his death. Rest in peace Mojo 🎸
Saw him and Skid twice in Houston in the late 80’s. Don’t remember the club, but it was a small venue. He had the velvet Elvis hung behind him. Awesome shows! Listened to him on Rice University radio KTRU.
I love Mojo Nixon more because of that. Some idiot decided to stage dive. The idiot landed on a chick and knocked her out cold. Mojo stopped the show and we all waited on the ambulance to get there.
Yes. I worked at Strozier with a friend of hers, and if I remember correctly…. It’s been a long time since then…. She had a broken pelvis. She was a little bitty thing and the idiot who landed on her was ginormous. People were stage diving and when he jumped, people scattered, which I don’t blame them…

I went to a small venue in OKCity back in the 80s called VZD on Western Ave. Between sets, Mojo and Skid took the extra seats we had open at our table. He was a string bean back then but he was in a gin guzzling frenzy for real. Skid's pupils were like saucers. He was pretty quiet.
Being drunk opens doors to entities that you don't want coming in, believe me. Someone is always in control of you and if it's not you, you're inviting any spirit who wants to enter to take control and the Bible says: "Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about seeking whom he may devour." 1 Peter 5:8 I have personally seen a demon manifest itself while my wife and I were praying over a 24 yr old girl in Intensive Care who was in a coma from a drug overdose. She died that day. You don't want to go down that road. Jesus is the answer. Ask Him to come into your heart. He will never leave you nor forsake you. You don't get to change your mind on the other side. Do it here, now.
@@BaranoffIsaac It says they are adulterers and will have their place in the Lake of Fire. You should repent, Isaac, while you have a chance. That opportunity could end any moment. In the twinkling of an eye.
Mojo has been Mojo all along. There's nothing shocking. Well, that Mojo is still ticking is kind of a shock. I love him. I've seen many, many shows over the years. Been kicked out a few days back in the day. Such was the way of a Mojoholic. If you don't get it, or think The Orange Rambler is some Nationalist hero, get bent and move on.
midge dawson I went to Sunday School with him. No kidding. My Dad was his Dentist. He was a little older that me, but we were kind of friends. I was good friends with his brother Art. My Mom is close to his mother, Francis. She got invited to his wedding (on a go cart track - they did a "victory lap" at the end). His real name is Kirby and his Dad owned WILA, the only black radio station in town.
@@BaranoffIsaac "She opposes the war on drugs and supports abolishing drug laws, promising to pardon all nonviolent drug offenders. She has urged the demilitarization of police. " She's a nutter. Should she have won America would stuggle to cope...
With lines like the ones about Republicans tallywackers being mighty small & the Floating Doo Doo Balls not drawing a crowd I'm sure God will assume Mojo & Skid into heaven. That's where you don't even have to die. God just grabs you & takes you up. Like the Catholics say happened to the Blessed Virgin Mary.
The antiestablishment contrarian musician didn't like the one antiestablishment contrarian President we have had. Weird... the beer may have addled his brain...
