Intense. Do you agree?

[Knifeboy]

I love Henry Rollins. I don't always agree with him, but in this video, he couldn't be any more right.
Stop censoring the internet you fat ****s

[r1mbaud]

no, how could you

[PerpetualBurn]

This is definitely one of the dumbest thing I've ever watched.

[totah]

Henry Rollins is much funnier when he's not reading from the MTV autocue. I have a fifteen minutes long rant of his on my computer about how he was going to be outed as a gay and CNN was going to get an exclusive. He goes on about how homophobia is moronic, as is racism, and he's hilarious about it. But this video was dumb, dontcha know.

[PerpetualBurn]

I don't feel 14 enough for that rant.

[totah]

He actually makes funny jokes. Very Bill Hicksian:

"You know how much CNN would care if I was gay? They'd send one spotty kid with a fanzine and a broken tape recorder; 'So dude are you a fag?' That's how much they would care."

It's funnier when he says it 'cos of timing and enunciation and stuff. He doesn't sound as stupid as he did on that video.

[Mr. Ron]

I love him, he does get a bit preachy and corny at times, but his message is good.

[Knifeboy]

He's an amazing story teller... I think I have a couple days worth of his spoken word stuff in my mp3 collection

[Mr. Ron]

No one can stack up to Bill Hicks, though. imo

[Knifeboy]

Yeah, Bill Hicks is the king... Henry Rollins isn't really trying to match him though, Rollins isn't exactly doing standup.

[Mr. Ron]

true.

[Linkinbassist]

'to question authority is to be unpatriotic, unamerican and in league terrorists worldwide...**** YOU!'

I love it.

i want it here for the lulz.

[PerpetualBurn]

I liked the constant hand gestures to mask the fact he hasn't said anything of substance.

[Knifeboy]

I like how you keep responding to this thread for no apparent reason

[sweboy]

I like how I'm just jumping in here without anything to actually say.

[1338 h4x0r]

bree bree eeeeeeeeeeeee

[Knifeboy]

I like how I'm wasting my time on here while I have 80 pages to read for tomorrow

[Mr. Ron]

Go forth, and read, boy of the knife.

[AA-12]

Herny Rollins is hilarious and so badass, but nothing he says has any substance. It's like "**** the government up the punx l8er"

[Knifeboy]

Go forth, and read, boy of the knife.

"Strategic Project management: control the development"

a 60 page handout we got today, to read for tomorrow..

D:

I should probably start with reading the pages about motivation

[JohnXDoe]

Black Coffee Blues

Get In The Van. all need to read it.

[spitfirejunky]

A couple of powerful one-liners but no point has been defended.

[cobert]

MYYYYYYYY
WAR

[gregulus]

MYYYYYYYY
WAR

favorite rollins-era black flag song is depression.

[cobert]

Well like most punk fans I thoroughly enjoy Damaged in its entirety. I think My War is still a great album although it seems most critics think that it was Black Flags falling point. The title track alone is intense enough to make up for any mistake they could have ever made ever though so whatever.

from my war on they started getting heavier and slower.

by the end of it they all hated each other. ginn was a control-freak and rollins was just a total prick. chuck dukowski had the right idea about leaving when he did.

[Bordello]

yeah rollins went through his prick period

[gregulus]

to be honest, though. living like they did would do it to a lot of people.

I don't really care for hardcore punk or the culture that goes with it, but Henry Rollins has some pretty relevant content in his diatribes imo. There's only so much meaning you can put in a sarcastic, two-minute-long spoken word piece, but behind the harsh jabs at everything, there is usually an important message.

[Independent_CA]

I like the intensity. He should be in a punk band...

To Knifeboy: I never do the majority of my reading for class and I'm doing just fine. You should try it!

[Scuba_Steve]

I think he was joking

I happen to enjoy Henry Rollins very much, while I agree that he has a strong presentation and less elaboration, I dont look to him for political advice.


I just find him to be an interesting and entertaining person, i'm going to see his spoken word in just under a month :)

[DanD]

Henry Rollins is my favorite person ever, I don't really even care what he has to say, he's just awesome

[Independent_CA]

Oh yeah, Black Flag, they're just like Green Day right?

:chug:

[tablespoonful]

Favorite Black Flag song: slip it in.

Henry Rollins is a pretty alright guy, definitely no bullshit, and in interviews asks substantial questions.
