Doc Corbin Dart
Doc Corbin Dart was lead singer, founder and lyricist of Lansing Michigan's seminal 80's punk rock act "Crucifucks." He is the son of the president of Dart National Bank, and related to the Dart Container family. (According to sources close to Dart, Doc is paid a monthly stipend by the Dart family as long as he doesn't mention his lineage and stays out of the public eye.) Doc's excruciating vocal stylings have been described as harsh, whiney, and "like paint-stripper." His lyrics are rants against America, the police, and civil established society. While on stage, Doc regularly would cut his face and arms with a pink Lady Bic Shaver, covering the mic and stage with blood. Perhaps the high point of his public career was the very public loss of a $2.2 million lawsuit by default judgement in 1997 brought against him, Alternative Tentacles Records, and Jello Biafra by the City of Philadelphia chapter of the Fraternal Order of Police. In December of that year, the suit was appealed and dropped. Doc continues as a mainstay of alternative culture in Lansing, Michigan, regularly showing up in local papers, and runs a Baseball trading card storefront in a small, bleak collection of shops on Michigan Avenue near Sparrow Hospital.
