Stage Name Stories: Jello Biafra

Born: Eric Reed Boucher

What's in a Name: The wickedly ironic Dead Kennedys founder combined the name of the jiggly, nutrition-free instant food with the name of the African secessionist state that suffered mass starvation in the late 1960s.

Jello is actually a very intelligent speaker and a cool guy to hang out with. I met him several years ago and found him to be smart and engaging.

That sounds like a name for a anorexic girl.

Jello is an insanely intelligent person, very wise and an outstanding public speaker. His name is name is such an irony I love it! A, for the most part, nutrition-less food for the country Biafra (present day Nigeria I believe) and its mass starvation. Jello Biafra for president 2008!
