John Peel Wiki

Changes to the look of John Peel Wiki will take place in the near future due to a new skin being rolled out over Oct/Nov across Wikia. Please see the Wikia Staff Blog for further details. On this site, the changes will affect the navigation from the left menu, as well as introduce a fixed page width with narrower content space. Please be patient while adjustments are made for the switch to the new system.

UPDATE: As the change is now in force for some users, I have switched the navigation to the simplified one for the new system. Please check Navigation in the Help section if you can't find things. I also initially made small adjustments to the front page layout, but have now reverted to the old look until all users are on the new system.

COUNTDOWN: Just a reminder for people still using Monaco that the final switch to the new skin is due on Nov. 3. After that, it will no longer be offered as an option. Sorry. Nothing to do with me.

Supreme Dicks

Supreme Dicks is an American experimental rock group formed in 1984 by Jon Shere and Stuart Morris while students at Hampshire College.

The primary band members are Jon Shere, Daniel Oxenberg, Mark Hansen, Steve Shavel, and often Jim Spring. Other members at various times have included Holly Cat, Dan Kapelovitz, Jennifer Stefanisko, John Galvin III, and Dave Taub. The band has performed with Dinosaur Jr., and toured with Neutral Milk Hotel, Kurt Vile, and Bonnie Prince Billy.

Their retrospective box set Breathing and Not Breathing was released on the Jagjaguwar label October 18, 2011.

The band played several shows in 2012, including three at South by Southwest, followed by a short tour with Kurt Vile. They were joined onstage for all of these shows by Holly Cat, known for the 1987 hit "I Wanna Be Like Madonna." The band toured Europe in 2013, and have continued to play shows sporadically, mostly in Los Angeles.
