Dead Kennedys Prisoner of Technology

PC_Arcade

Has anyone got / can scan for me, the Dead Kennedys "Prisoner of Technology" Logo?

If it helps jog memories, it's a picture of a silhouette man trapped behind a Bar code (like prison bars), and if I remember correctly it was somewhere on the give me convenience CD (or vinyl)

Thanks in advance

I know the logo you mean but I don't think I have it anywhere. I'm pretty sure it isn't on the Give Me Convenience CD, maybe on the vinyl. I only have Fresh Fruit and a bunch of singles on vinyl, and it isn't on any of these, sorry.

Thanks for checking......The Hunt goes on :lol:

I think It was on the newspaper lyrics pull out from Give me inconvenience on Vinyl, although I could well be wrong, If it wasn't for GT remembering it I'd think I'd made it up!!

I have the original vinyl that I bought years & years ago.
The newspaper that came with it was called 'fuck facts'.
I dont know the logo youre talking about & dont have time tonight to go on a vinyl hunt as theyre still packed away after moving house as I no longer have a record player

but if I havent looked by this time next week, please bump the thread again :wink:

Will do although I can't guarantee that's where it is (although I'm fairly sure), I appreciate the offer though, cheers Bugs

didn' that newspaper come with Bedtime for democray?? (I don't have that one anymore since it broke)

Bedtime for democracy was the statue of liberty on the cover & no it definately didnt come with that as I have that one too. The Give me convenience or give me death album cover has an orange fire border & the central picture is dead people (maybe cambodia) & a face that I never recognised over the top in barbed wire. It also came with a floppy disk in the UK release with 2 tracks, 1 of which was buzzbombs over pasadena.

Youre right, I just had a hunt... The one in give me convenience is called domestic violence week begins

Sorry PCA, its not on either of these albums or in either of the bundled rags. I still cant picture the image youre talking about & I coulda sworn I had all the albums & singles at one time. The only one not been checked so far is plastic surgery disasters which I did have on CD until I had my collection robbed so cant check that for you

NP, thanks for checking

I've just checked the Peace compilation which included the track "Kinky Sex Makes The World Go Round" as I thought it was on there, I was wrong.

I think my mate still has the booklet from Plastic Surgery Disasters though not the LP anymore, I'll ask him next time I see him.

It depends what you want the logo for, Blackpool punks Erase Today nicked the idea for their 12" "The Economic Prison" which I have, so if you want it for political purposes then this would be the next best thing.

Can you scan it and post it here please George?

George Tatum · **Posted:** Sat Jul 28, 2007 10:32 am **Post subject:**

This isn't a bad scan, the image on the actual 12" is this poor quality

Thanks mate, that might be good enough, although the original DK one was MUCH better quality

Thanks Phozz, that's not quite it, but that's close enough (as is the Erase Today one)

just checked and found it! BUT i just tried my scanner and i keep getting 'hardware error' - gotta admit i haven't used it for a coupla years 'till now (it's way old n not even usb!)

it is on the 2nd page of the booklet from Plastic Surgery Disasters. although the booklet is the full size of the LP the actual pic is only about 1" wide & 3/4" high. the barcode is different form the one above and reads 79100 02285.

Thanks :mrgreen:
