Man, this definitely gives you a new perspective after listening to "Get In The Van". The reality was so much worse. I'd hate humanity after a few rounds of shit crowds.
yeah i don't think europeans had what stripped down hardcore punk outlook like in the USA, they were more like sid vicious types, all about acting douchy with their spiked hair

Also, try not to lump everybody into 'europeans'.

Never understood hate for Rollins. Then again most punkers come across as pseudo-enlightened-elitist-fashion snobs more so than being rebellious. He had guts to keep going with Black Flag even after being slagged.

It's the studio recording. You can hear the chorus but he's just mouthing the words. He's not even holding a microphone. They must have turned it on while he was recovering from the beer can to keep the fans entertained.
***** Go to 0:19. His lips are out of sync with the lyrics and he doesn't have a microphone. An audio recording is playing at the same time the band is playing live.
Classic footage! I was laughing at all the poseurs in the crowd just trying to look cool with their over styled hair. Depression was a good song to song to go into after the beer can incident. Perfect.
I attended shows dressed how I dressed everywhere, standard low key prep circa late 70s early 80s. The fashion show that was punk was a fashion show. I met RICHARD HELL decades later in a sedate setting. Hosted a book reading for him. He didn't dress in the fashion many say he created.
@Bob Cook : Nope. Thrash metal is in fact a fusion of metal and hardcore punk. I know this because grew up in and around the birth of thrash metal in Oakland and Berkeley, and we all loved bands like Black Flag, The Dead Kennedys, and Fang (one of my best friends still plays guitar for Fang occasionally). Real punk rock was and is about being anti-establishment (witch intrinsically includes being anti-misogynistic btw). Punk rock died because many fans didn't get it at all, and in their weakness thought that posing as a "real man" was the thing. Ironically for you, it's the very same reason thrash metal died. People who got it, got disgusted by all the intrinsically weak machismo, and many of those weak machismo posers finally learned something about life. I don't think I ever met one thrash metal artist who didn't give at least a nod to punk rock, and I hung out at times with all the players from Exodus, Laaz Rockit, Testament, Metallica, Forbidden etc. Some were good friends, and collectively at least one of my closest friends were good friends with almost all of those guys. So I actually know what I'm talking about from real life experience. By the way, I always preferred thrash metal more personally, probably because I came more from a prog-rock/fusion background. But whatever, "good" is just an opinion anyway, nothing more (you can enjoy both if you want, I do). That's Basic Life 101.
@@ethanhill9460 : Exactly. Punk rock was never a "fashion." It was always about being anti-establishment, and when a genre develps an "established dress code", it's time to be different. One of the most hardcore punks I ever knew was also a tie-dye wearing Deadhead, and another was also the biggest Beatles fan I've ever known (R.I.P Eric, I miss you). Most of the the punk rockers I knew dressed like any other stoner and you couldn't tell from looking at a group of my friends who liked punk, metal, classic rock, jazz, funk, classical, or blues (some like me were fans of all those genres and more).
Well, by his own admission he made most of his money from writing books, doing speaking tours, and acting. In Black Flag they never made anything and in Rollins Band he broke even on most of the tours but he was addicted to the stage life and being in a band. As far as his vocals go, he fit in with the music and adjusted his voice as needed. I get where you're coming from, but even in the context of his genre I think he's a pretty good vocalist. Better than many punk vocalists anyways. =)
Really? I think he's got a lot of talent. He's an excellent public speaker, great writer, entertainer, and as a musician he's vocally intense, lyrically brilliant, and has an ear for other talented musicians. Especially with some his spoken word tours where it takes a lot of talent to stand up in front of people and be engaging, entertaining, and interesting with over three hours of material that consists of nothing but talk.
When the camera zoomed in, I suddenly understood why Negan from The Walking Dead was based on him. Man, why throw something when such good music is playing?
Sheip *For spoilers I suppose?* No, no. The creator based him off of Henry Rollins. Watch a few videos of him, the man is intense. Also immensely entertaining and funny, everything Negan is known for. If there *was* a zombie apocalypse, do not doubt for a minute that Henry would survive and lead a band of people. He's kind of bad ass like that. There would... *probably* be less of the other Negan stuff, but I guess the show is a study in what people become while focusing on survival. You never know.
For the people giving Henry shit about his reaction to being hit with a beer can, read Get In The Van, it will help you understand. They all put up with so much shit from the audiences that some of them were bound to snap at some point. There is an audiobook of it on youtube. Listen to it.
The camera man zooming in on Henry threatening a guy with the mic stand knew what he was doing. It was like the camera man knew this video was going to be on the internet.
Hardcore punk (say 1981-1984 era) was really wonderful in my opinion. Houston was an OK market (i went to a few shows which were all really great) but the best part of living there during this period for me at least was the Funhouse Show every Sunday night from 11p-1a on KPFT-a public radio station. This show was hosted by "Chuck Roast" who has owned a great record store in Houston for decades probably beginning around the early 80s. I recorded the show in its entirety for at least two years and I have over seventy 90-minute cassettes of Black Flag, Minutemen, Circle Jerks, Bad Brains, Seven Seconds, DRI, F&*ck-Ups, both studio and live tracks etc and if my house caught on fire they would be the first thing I'd go for as soon as every person/pet were safe.
What everybody doesn't realize is that Rollins is getting mad at the wrong person and was the guy at the front who finished his beer can and threw it at Rollins by accident. Look at 0:04
Here 2 years later to say YES someone did notice it was the guy in the front row that threw the can, but Rollins wasn't the first to call him out. The guy in the trench coat called out the innocent which if you take a closer look. It seems as though the person who actually threw the can is trying to plead guilty but the guys on stage aren't listening.
He didn't get off the stage, because unlike yourself no doubt, Henry has a lot of smarts and realized that there would be not only legal troubles for himself, but also financial trouble for the whole band if he launched out there and did what you would most likely have given no thought to. Henry wins. Your argument is weak.
I knew a dude that SWEARS he got into a fight with Henry Rollins at The Place I Knoxville, TN, circa 83' or '84... says he kicked Rollins' ass, which I doubt, but I do tend to believe that they got in a fight .. both of them were rather...uh... obnoxious...at least back then. I saw Rollins last year doing one of his "monologue" shows, and I realized that he's somebody that can't stop talking once he gets started! Lol
I know thagt but I'm talking about Black Flag songs. He started writing more songs towards the end of Black Flag when they made their spoken word album; that was pretty fucking good though.
I threw firecrackers at a J. G. Thirwell show; also attempted to wrest the mic stand away from him, with partial success, accidentally striking person behind me with base of the stand. So, yes your comment checks out
This sound quality is very bad from this recorded video. They should have been able to make it right.. I can barely hear Henry and the rest of BLACK FLAG 🎼!! 🙋

read the book - they basically payed all by themself, eating watever and sleeping everywhere ( most of the time covered in spit ) - in UK Henry Rollins got in a very big fight with the local punks at one gig ( i really can't remember the place ) - they waited for him , like 50 against him . he still fight back , but they beat him real bad - you got to read the book, so intense - this in the video is nothing - the book is fantastic, like 1000% punk - Henry got gigantic balls

read the book - they basically payed all by themself, eating watever and sleeping everywhere ( most of the time covered in spit ) - in UK Henry Rollins got in a very big fight with the local punks at one gig ( i really can't remember the place ) - they waited for him , like 50 against him . he still fight back , but they beat him real bad - you got to read the book, so intense - this in the video is nothing -
the book is fantastic, like 1000% punk - Henry got gigantic balls
Holy shit
