Richard is a musician, most well known for being the lead singer (for most of 45 years) with the New York City legendary punk band, <strong>THE DICTATORS</strong>.</p> 336<p><img decoding="async" class="alignleft wp-image-694 " src="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/manitobas-bar.jpg" alt="" width="226" height="158" />MR. MANITOBA also spent 14 years (starting around 2004) on Sirius XM Satellite Radio, hosting “<strong>The Handsome Dick Radio Program</strong>“, a national show, 5 nights a week on <strong>Little Steven’s Underground Garage</strong>.</p> 337<p>And that ainât all folks!. Handsome Dick has owned the coolest rock ânâ roll tavern in the Western Hemisphere for just about 20 years now. Oddly enough, itâs called <strong>Manitobaâs Bar</strong> and itâs located at 99 Avenue B between 6 and 7 Streets in New York Cityâs, East Village, on…the lush beautiful island of Manhattan.</p> 338<p>HDM also occasionally sang lead with the <strong>MC5</strong> (at the time called DKT/MC5), which included <strong>Michael Davis, “Brother” Wayne Kramer and Dennis “Machinegun” Thompson</strong>, founding members of Detroit’s legendary MIGHTY pre-punk rock and roll band, The MC5.</p> 339<p><img decoding="async" class="alignleft wp-image-691 " src="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/manitoba-jimmy-fallo-anthony-bourdain.png" alt="" width="336" height="437" />MR. MANITOBA was a guest on his pal Jimmyâs television program, “<strong>The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon</strong>“. HDM was a major character on an ill-fated half hour reality show called <strong>Barmageddon.</strong> He proudly sat with the late great chef, <strong>Anthony Bourdain,</strong> chowing down on White Castles at MR.

HDM has been a paid speaker at colleges and institutions and a paid writer, even though heâs only read four books in his lifetime!</p> 341<p>“…and letâs not forget the man has his very own bobble head doll… and Iâll tell you this …you can look at all the bobble head dolls you want, and if you find one that looks like THEM more precisely than mine looks like me, well, letâs put it this way… Iâd be mighty surprised! Itâs a good feeling knowing someday my ashes will be spread over Yankee Stadium and also knowing I left this earth leaving behind bobble head dolls!”</p> 342 343 </div> 344 </div> 345</div></div></div></div>

Dave has written an untold amount of books on rock ânâ roll history. He is a total rock ânâ roll historian and his wife is co-manager of Bruce Springsteen. The guy has been around! Amazingly he comes to me and says <strong>âSUPPLY AND DEMAND IS A MASTERPIECE</strong>â.</p> 352<p>I actually blushed a little.</p> 353<p>I said, âCome on Dave! Itâs a nice solid rock and roll tune made for the DICTATORS, but a masterpiece?â he said, âIâm not kidding, I donât kid around about these thingsâ and I just said, âThank you very much,â and left it alone.</p> 354<p>That, coupled with a few other positive reinforcements about my new foray into writing, like getting much support from <strong>Palmyra Delran</strong>, a GREAT songwriter and all around musician, and recording artist, gave me my âwriting legs.â</p> 355<p>I now had my legs under me holding me up propelling me forward. l had the confidence I needed to write.</p> 356<p>I said hello to an old acquaintance at a party, and the acquaintance brings up the name <strong>Jon Tiven</strong>, I said âsend my love to Jonâ, an old friend from the 1970s.

Jon sent me down to Nashville to make an album. I recorded 18 songs in 4 1/2 days with some of Nashvilleâs finest musicians.</p> 358<p>Just to name a few people that Jon has worked with (I mean just a few): Wilson Pickett, Dan Covey, Arthur Alexander, and the brilliant Steve Cropper who he still works with today…and on and on the list goes.</p> 359<p><strong>We feel confident the album will be released in 2019â¦. itâs called “Born In The Bronx”</strong>.</p> 360 361 </div> 362 </div> 363</div></div></div></div><!-- Row Backgrounds --><div class="upb_color" data-bg-override="full" data-bg-color="#000000" data-fadeout="" data-fadeout-percentage="30" data-parallax-content="" data-parallax-content-sense="30" data-row-effect-mobile-disable="true" data-img-parallax-mobile-disable="true" data-rtl="false" data-custom-vc-row="" data-vc="8.7.2" data-is_old_vc="" data-theme-support="" data-overlay="false" data-overlay-color="" data-overlay-pattern="" data-overlay-pattern-opacity="" data-overlay-pattern-size="" ></div><div class="vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_custom_1547952465977"><div class="wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12"><div class="vc_column-inner vc_custom_1547952500782"><div class="wpb_wrapper"><h2 style="font-size: 42px;color: #ffb900;line-height: 1;text-align: left;font-family:Chelsea Market;font-weight:400;font-style:normal" class="vc_custom_heading vc_do_custom_heading vc_custom_1547952010666" >THE DICTATORS</h2> 364 <div class="wpb_text_column wpb_content_element whttxt" > 365 <div class="wpb_wrapper"> 366 <p><strong>MR.

366S on stage career started with one of the oddest beginnings in rock ânâ roll history.</strong></p> 367<h3><span style="color: #ffb900;"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-653" src="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/IMG_0668-239x300.jpg" alt="" width="239" height="300" srcset="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/IMG_0668-239x300.jpg 239w, https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/IMG_0668.jpg 255w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 239px) 100vw, 239px" /></span></h3> 368<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class=" wp-image-652 alignright" src="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/IMG_0667-300x191.jpg" alt="" width="212" height="122" />The band was forming and Handsome Dick was the best friend of the band, but not singing or playing an instrument left him out of the fun! The boys had to have a job for their best friend, so they made him a roadie. A job he was ill-suited for. MANITOBA was a drunk roadie, lost equipment, pulled an awning halfway out of the side of a building, etc. While driving his 12′ box truck, the top of the truck caught the awning and yanked it out of its concrete. The owner asked me if I did it. “No” I said⦠“Well I SAW you do it” … “Well then, I did it!”. But MANITOBA, unbeknownst to the world at this point in time, did something very well…he was magic with a microphone in his hand.</p> 369<h3></h3> 370<p>The first proof of his microphone prowess took place at a place called <strong>Popeyeâs Spinach Factory</strong> in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, 1975.</p> 371<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-696 " src="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/hdm.jpg" alt="" width="420" height="368" /><strong>Chris Stein</strong> from Blondie was there, <strong>Eric Emerson</strong> of the Magic Tramps, part of Andy Warholâs crew was there, and my friend <strong>David Peel</strong> who recently passed away told me he was there too.</p> 372<p>As the years go by, it seems like more and more people were there. It was one of those legendary shows. The whole point of the story is the lead singer who wrote the songs didnât have a whole hell of a lot of stage personality or charisma, so the minute they handed MANITOBA, the drunk roadie the microphone, he dove into “Wild Thing” by <strong>The Troggs</strong>, written by Chip Taylor, Jon Voightâs brother, (what a talented family, huh?) The place went crazy!</p> 373<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft wp-image-805 " src="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/the-dictators-album-nyc.jpg" alt="" width="185" height="904" />In the ensuing few months, the same trip kept repeating itself… the songwriter got up and sang songs to mild, respectable applause, while MANITOBA got up and sang and people went crazy. What followed was two songs, three songs, and then the obvious. If we wanted to take these good songs and get them across to the people with true rock ânâ roll excitement, Handsome Dick Manitoba had to become the lead singer. I donât think the songwriter was jumping for joy with this decision.</p> 374<p>The DICTATORS first major label album came out. It was called âThe DICTATORS Go Girl Crazyâ on <strong>Epic Records</strong> in 1975, a whole year before <strong>The Ramones</strong> first album came out!</p> 375<p>Handsome Dick sang a few songs as lead singer and he was on a few songs as background singer. He was known as “The Secret Weapon”, a slogan borrowed from our love of Pro Wrestling. It was when the bad guy, or “heel” in Wrestling parlance would hide a weapon in his boots or trunks, hurt the good guy, “baby face, or face” and put it back into hiding.</p> 376<p>1977 hit and The DICTATORS released their second major label album, this one on the Asylum label, âManifest Destinyâ. While it had a few good songs, the album really failed on many levels. I think the driving force of it’s failure was our disappointment of how badly Girl Crazy tanked.</p> 377<p>Manifest Destiny was supposed to take us into arenas. It’s not something we were cut out for. We tried to become something we were not, an arena rock act. When the Ramones got booed off the stage opening up for Black Sabbath, they decided to get in the van and be The Ramones. We should have decided to say âletâs get in the van and be the DICTATORS!â</p> 378<p>Thatâs not the way our organization worked. That coupled with the fact that an album we thought was the coolest album in the world made by the coolest guys in the world, âGo Girl Crazyâ, wound up being an abject failure economically, and was put down by a large section of the press.</p> 379<p>It did wind up having much more life LONG AFTER its original release.</p> 380<p>As they say with certain movies, the album âhad legsâ…(hey, just like my songwriting confidence!)</p> 381<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-457 " src="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/w
381p-content/uploads/2018/08/flyer-5.gif" alt="" width="233" height="495" />Decades later, the album has become a classic punk record to the point where 20-year-olds and 30 year olds tell me their father turned me out onto this album and they fucking love it. “It turned me onto punk, and the album means so much to meâ.</p> 382<p>What can I tell you folksâ¦. how many artists in history have done things that were not appreciated when they were alive, then they died and later became appreciated? …itâs good to be alive!</p> 383<p>We did an about-turn and got closer to our punk roots on our third and final major label release also on Asylum records, this one called âBloodbrothersâ, the name inspired by the great novelist Richard Price from his first novel of the same. He was also from our neighborhood in the Bronx. Bronx people are proud of these things!</p> 384<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft wp-image-675" src="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Price_Wanderers_US-195x300.jpg" alt="" width="124" height="260" />As far as songwriting, playing, and pure sonic coolness, I feel Bloodbrothers was the best of our three albums. Gee, I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact that I sang more on it than any record we did?</p> 385<p>Our 1990 speed metal-ish, <strong>Manitobaâs Wild Kingdom</strong> (almost the DICTATORS) LP, âAND YOU?â was a fun exciting album that guess what?… bombed!</p> 386<p>We closed out our major recording career with the release of 2001’s “D.F.F.D” DICTATORS FOREVER, FOREVER DICTATORS.

The two of us had put as much into the DICTATORS as he had, and the other guitar player too! Weâre talking 90 years of being DICTATORS between the lead singer and lead guitar player. So one day three guys from the DICTATORS: me, lead singer <strong>Handsome Dick Manitoba</strong>, guitar player, <strong>Ross âThe Bossâ</strong> & the longest tenured drummer, <strong>JP âThunderboltâ Patterson</strong> decided to supply the demand… we wanted to answer the call. To the people, The music meant so much, it meant so much to so many that it should not be put to rest. So we went out and got the best most talented & fun bass player we knew, a man by the name of <strong>Dean âTHE DREAMâ Rispler</strong>, clearly called THE DREAM because THIS was a dream bass player after a hellish one. We got a guitar player with an excellent punk rock pedigree, a man who wrote songs and produced albums for the Ramones, <strong>Daniel Rey</strong>. The new DICTATORS were complete except for one thing… since it wasnât the totally original lineup, we felt obliged historically and as a courtesy to members who either couldnât or didnât want to play, that we should have a slight differentiation name wise, between the first wave and the latest incarnation of the DICTATORS. So were born: the <strong>DICTATORS NYC</strong> … <strong>Long live the DICTATORS NYC.</strong></p> 397 398 </div> 399 </div> 400<div class="vc_row wpb_row vc_inner vc_row-fluid"><div class="wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-6"><div class="vc_column-inner"><div class="wpb_wrapper"> 401 <div class="wpb_single_image wpb_content_element vc_align_center wpb_animate_when_almost_visible wpb_fadeIn fadeIn"> 402 403 <figure class="wpb_wrapper vc_figure"> 404 <div class="vc_single_image-wrapper vc_box_border_grey"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="600" height="398" src="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/w

Empowering about my esteem rising, Empowering about finding out that I had great stuff inside of me that needed to come out.</p> 419<p>When said musician came in to lucky money, he used part of it to bully and be abusive to former band members and fans…two of the band members I mentioned earlier, have spent 45 years each in the band. Yet this one member gave out the feeling that he owned the DICTATORS and everything about the band…. that the band was his… he used some of his money to threaten legal action for anybody using the name DICTATORS as any part of their name.</p> 420<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-391 alignright" src="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/26372132_173926393379962_3591930034962563072_n.jpg" alt="" width="386" height="496" />With this, he destroyed thousands and thousands of fans’ joy of seeing this great band, The Dictators NYC, arguably better than the original one, to come to their town to play. The man threatening the lawsuit automatically takes down any song he wrote from YouTube so every fan that loves the DICTATORS and the new version could not have the joy and pleasure of keeping a song up on YouTube. It seemed to me, besides disrespect and condescension towards his band mates, the so-called “leader” was done with high-energy rock and roll and seems content with playing small clubs with pats on the back and being called a genius.</p> 421<p>The fourth original member of the DICTATORS, who had played with the DICTATORS NYC onstage and claimed this band should ânot change its nameâ … âI will take no money from a lawsuit with this band, they are an amazing rock nâ roll band, they should stay exactly how they are, name and allâ …Suddenly and without warning, the 2nd guitar player went over to the DARKSIDE, and after many years of putting down the lead guitar player in the band, his personal family situation, even his guitar playing, decided to email him, (an email I was privy to) claiming that I was messing up the mediation we were working on and had the nerve after said years of attacks, called Ross his “brother” and claiming “Lets fix this”. I call that a major league pair of cojones!</p> 422<p>Could you imagine putting down somebodyâs personality and lifestyle, and guitar playing for years!!! and then calling him brother? …Ain’t happening for YOU, is it “brother?”</p> 423<p>This brings to the conclusion the ugly and destructive ending of 2 great bands known as the DICTATORS NYC and the DICTATORS. The chances of us playing again are extremely slim.</p> 424<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-230 alignleft" src="https://handsomedickmanitoba.com/w
