Henry's the man Met him once for 30 seconds was like 1998 or maybe 1999 I was in London walking down charing Cross road. Was on the way to the Astoria to see SLAYER , SEPULTURA & SYSTEM OF A DOWN. See henry coming out of a book shop he was in London doing an early spoken word tour. I have SLAYER shirt on get a picture with him He asks why I'm in London SLAYERRRRRRRRRRR I said to him you should come He looked at me totally dead pan for 10 seconds Then burst onto laughter Yeah right ohhhhhh.... I'm going back to my hotel to read & have an early night Hahahahhahahah That's my henry rollins story
That could have been 4 hours long and I'd still have sat through it with glee. I like how Frank asked three quarters of five questions, and the rest was Henry going off on tangents...
A great piece of entertainment!!! This interview belongs to the category "Anything better? Don't think so..." 😉 Thanks a lot for this epic interview! 😊👍🏻
Getting old, you better get a sense of humor. I like that! I'm 52 and I'm trying to put humor into songs I sing and slogans I share. Because I need humor so bad. Right on.
Never seen a Black Flag show but i bought a Rollins Band CD when i was a kid, cut to some years later I'm well versed in punk rock and underground metal scenes, then I go see a Fran Turner show only to end up about 6 feet from him screaming and beating the hell out of his acoustic alone on stage circa 2008. Man I miss those days! Henry is such a treasure man, thanks for this conversation
Loved that as didnt see it on the day (hope the band discussion and the lost Evenings one were recorded) but hoping that Edinburgh will have proper roons for the panels.
Frank didn’t get a word in edge wise but he didn’t have to. Hank ruled that stage and provided excellent entertainment! Thank you. You won’t find a more devoted or disciplined man than Rollins. Always consistent.
I grew up in the VA/DC punk/hardcore scene a few years after Henry and racism at shows was a big problem. Got plenty of scars on my knuckles from fighting those jaggoffs he spoke about. The scene itself was actually incredibly inclusive and had every stripe of person in it. It was an amazing melting pot of people but there were still a lot of racist assholes around causing problems.
38:40 prepare 40:30 I so care what you think about me. I want you to like me. I want your attention, your approval. 41:05 he must really wanted to be there 43:40 a license plate
As usual Henry's full of it with his political correctness. Yes, 80s hardcore shows were often violent. Yes, Nazi skins were a visible presence at SOME shows (especially in California where large cliques existed). But Nazi lunkheads were always a minority at any show I ever went to. All in all the punk and hardcore scene of the 80s was one of the most inclusive scenes of that era with a large contingent of Jewish kids, gays, "people of color", and many all female and female fronted bands. The main drag about hardcore was the slam pit which drove young women away from the scene. Been to many early BF shows and NEVER ONCE saw them call out or discourage violence on the dance floor, in fact, it was to some level encouraged and expected.
Is that Henry being a queen?! He sounds boring and taking the whole interview to himself. Shity ask questions Henry it goes both ways. Greg Ginn was the best thing that happened to you.
Lol, he was literally being interviewed. No, an interview doesn't go both ways. Questions are asked and answered, not a conversation for the most part.
If the effort people have put into curing cancer hadn't been suppressed by pharmaceutical companies and government agencies,the world would be a better place as well. But also..I love this matchup here ..

I have SLAYER shirt on get a picture with him
He asks why I'm in London
SLAYERRRRRRRRRRR
I said to him you should come
He looked at me totally dead pan for 10 seconds
Then burst onto laughter
Yeah right ohhhhhh.... I'm going back to my hotel to read & have an early night
Hahahahhahahah
That's my henry rollins story
Brilliant, just when I need another hit of Rollins I find this vid on a sleep-deprived morning. Cheers, Frank!

What a fantastic interview/chat between these two fabulous musicians!
This wasn't long enough. I need more.
Thank you for putting this out... It made me smile this morning.
Glad I got to see Black Flag back in the day I'm Henry's age
I got to see them too in1984. And I saw Flipper 4 times. Too much fun!
East Side Club, Philly - mentioned in Henry's book "Get In The Van"
A great piece of entertainment!!!

What a wonderful interview many thanks to both of you 👍
Thanks. I needed this today.
Legend.
Happy you posted this, couldn't make it into the panel, the rest were great.
Omg the man is still muscular 😮

Very informative Henry. Thank you.
Fascinating. I remember going to an Angelic Upstarts gig that got cut short by the NF. Punk gigs could be a dangerous place.

Two epic dudes one convo!
Great! Two sweet guys that get it! Much Love from Germany
This is so good! Thank you.
It's good he doesn't have nostalgia for those days... you definitely have to find joy in what exists now.... without your morality changing.
Frank and Hank! I could listen to him talk for a week straight. Bummed he's done acting, he was great on Con-Man!
luv hank!
That was a great interview, thank you.
the mics are about to feed back the entire time 😝 come on soundguy eq the room!
Damaged was recorded the month I was born!!
Thoroughly loved that chat!
Most people go into law enforcement for a power trip. He’s so right about the cops and their shady shit
Finally someone that stops Frank from talking too much! ;)
Hell yeah, Frank, nice job!
FRANK AND HENRY?!?!?!
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Awesome
thank you!!!
Protect him.
Met him in 1998. Extremely cool guy
Who could have predicted Henry and David Lee Roth would wind up looking so alike?
Henry without black shirt ????!!!!! He looks great btw. Still razor sharp.
0:31
Gets his mic cord ready for battle!😂 wonder if he's conscious of that?
I never would picture Rollins eating ice cream for dinner
Well now i know what im doing later.
Never listened to FRANK TURNER,but i know he recorded about 20 albums. Any recomendation? I don't know where to start
I love ‘Positive Songs For Negative People’ a lot.

Henry isnt a punk...Henry is just Henry. And thats exactly enough.
i need henrys boots
I was looking for same one too. I guess it's Danner Acadia
38:40 prepare
40:30 I so care what you think about me. I want you to like me. I want your attention, your approval.
41:05 he must really wanted to be there
43:40 a license plate
Who’s Frank Turner?
I saw EXPLOITED this summer. You can clearly see that Wattie is too old for that type of performance. I think he is older then Henry
Hold up Henry doesn't have a black shirt on
Jarring visual

Henry is great but Frank makes truly shitty music

Sour nobody detected😂
Lol, he was literally being interviewed. No, an interview doesn't go both ways. Questions are asked and answered, not a conversation for the most part.
Are you still holding a grudge from 1984?
Your right. I just thought he could have engaged Frank a bit in conversation that’s all.
If the effort people have put into curing cancer hadn't been suppressed by pharmaceutical companies and government agencies,the world would be a better place as well. But also..I love this matchup here ..
Flipper fkn RULES!
😈🔱👿.. Henry saying he's not a tough guy and me looking at his arm muscles I don't think I want Grandpa to bust me in the mouth
