Nice. I wish I had something more eloquent to say, but "nice" is all I have right now.

Thanks.

sounds fun, asks him how much he can squat, ive always been curious.

He's coming around here next week. I wish I could go see him, but tickets sold out way before I even heard about it.

Seeing him live was just fantastic. The man just talks for about two and a half hours without even so much as a water break. Shows up on time, stays interesting throughout, great performer.

Well done, man Henry is the best diplomat

So I guess that means no Black Flag reunion shows in the near future?It’s not my band. The band belongs to Greg Ginn, so I would have no horse in that race.

very cool, man

you ask good questions

I've always wondered why people consider Henry to be a mindless jock. Yeah, he's in good shape, but since when does taking care of your body make you an asshole? Yeah, he used to fight a lot, but who the fuck doesn't like fighting (besides pussies)? Yeah, he was in "Bad Boys 2", but he was also in "Lost Highway" (and Black fuckin' Flag so shut the fuck up haters). He is an intelligent guy with lots of interesting things to say.

rollins is the man and i understand why he fought a lot. i don't agree with it (i don't consider myself a pussy either), but i understand why he did what he did.

he has been in some really shitty movies and maybe one good one, but you're right, he has been in black flag, s.o.a. and his spoken word is really good, so he is the man just for being in those two bands and his spoken word. his taste in music is mostly really good too.
