From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Jerry Only (born Jerry Caiafa) is the bassist and co-founder of horror punk band The Misfits. He invented the infamous hair style, the Devilock.
Currently, his band is touring Europe in the Misfits 25th anniversary tour, which has actually been running for several years now.
He plays a Gothic Custom Devastator bass made out of Graphite. It has no tone or volume control knobs due to the fact that he only ever plays it on full blast. From 1977-1983 he played a Rickenbacker 4001.
He joined the Misfits in 1977, and is currently the only member of the 'old' Misfits (77-83). However in 1995 he settled a legal battle out of court with co-founder Glen Danzig, effectively allowing him rights to the bands name. Reforming with his little brother Doyle (who played guitar from 80-83), vocalist Michale Graves, and the drummer Dr. Chud. Chud and Graves left the group in 2000, so now Jerry tours with Dez Cadena, long time friend of the band and former Black Flag guitarist/singer, and Robo, drummer on the Earth AD/Wolfsblood album. Robo was also a member of Black Flag.
