In 2001, Ray, Peligro, and Flouride re-formed the Dead Kennedys, with former Dr. Know singer Brandon Cruz replacing Biafra on vocals. The band played under the name “DK Kennedys” for a few concerts, but later reverted to “Dead Kennedys” permanently. They played across the continental United States, Europe, Asia, South America, and Russia. Brandon Cruz left the band in May 2003 and was replaced by Jeff Penalty . The band has released two live albums of archival performances on Manifesto Records: Mutiny on the Bay , compiled from various live shows including a recording from their last show with Biafra in 1986, and Live at the Deaf Club , a recording of a 1979 performance at the Deaf Club in San Francisco which was greeted with more enthusiasm.
