Great interview here too, he's not afraid to reveal who he is.....
Are Henry Rollins spoken word gigs any good?

I was well into Rollins in the early 90s. Couple of sweaty old skool pub gigs when he was authentically snarly... and a spoken word show that was quite good.

Yeah, I don't remember them being classics. A mate of mine once handed us some of his poetry, one piece of which was a word-for-word copy of a Rollins poem. It influenced him that much, he reckoned.

At last. Someone not afraid to say I don't always need people. I'd happily look after Hank for a day and a half.

You mean he finally admits that he's Father Ted?
In a word - yes, excellent. Been a supporter of him for years (90's gigs, etc) and saw the Charmingly Obstinate tour in Dublin a few weeks ago....he spoke for 3 hours and it seemed like 20 mins....i thought it was gonna be a politics but Henry Rollins dedicated the entire evening talking about David Bowie and Lemmy - his experiences with them, friendship and stories were wonderful and it was an honour to hear him tell them in his own inimitable way.

If I mustRemember to let him out afterwards.
These videos are the pinnacle of my 90s weekend having sorted all my Kerrangs into chronological order, now listening to Pearl Jam and debating dying my hair purple for a date tomorrow and wearing cut off jeans, para boots, PJ t-shirt and checked shirt to it[emoji14]

The Kerrangs are in the Weekend thread. The rest is still up for debate.
Didn't realise that the Kerrangs were sorted. Which reminds me - I must sort the LDR 2000AD donation. It's been a while...

Not Serb. No, Really!
rollins writing is patchy. if you're not that interested in what henry rollins has to say about himself, it can be dull. get in the van is good tho and speaking about his mate joe cole is very moving. joe was murdered at the house they shared.
