He's awkward and self conscious when you speak to him ob on one, he doesn't like people and doesn't want to be cornered by you and your boring chit chat. I have run into him dozens of times for work and I just nod and he nods. He doesn't want you to lick his bum, it makes him run away. He is dealing with mental illness.
For those who don't know Australia has great punk rock bands like he said The Mark of Cain, The Hard-Ons, Mass Appeal, The Beasts of Bourbon, Kim Salmon & the Surrealists, The Saints, Celibate Rifles, Radio Birdmen, Lubricated Goat, The Scientists, the alot more but I can't remember right now.
Mark of Cain, produced by Rollins...LMA, Degenerate Boy...top songs, top band. I've seen most of the bands you mentioned at the tote or the espy. You must be my vintage, if I'm wrong I'd far rather be happy than right any day. Jesus, lubricated goat on stage sans clothes - got on RAGE too.
Respect to Henry for turning out such a charismatic and humble human being with having a father like his. He's the epitome of punk.my dad is the total opposite.. I'm giving him a bear hug tomorrow.
Outside of Noam Chomsky, Henry Rollins is the first amazing American I've heard with such openness towards the world who accepts his own country is not perfect. Wonderful.
Thank god for Henry. Don’t always agree with all of his views but he’s always willing and able to fully backup every one of them. Full respect to the man and his utterly brilliant musical legacy ❤
I met Henry at OSU in 1998. After the show, he signed my bestfriend's jeans- -- she framed them. He signed my left breast. We took photos & he gave autographs. Now, 20+ years later, I still have the biggest crush on him. He hasn't aged a day! He is so smart!!
If only they'd also shown the part when Bindi Irwin comes out to be interviewed. BEST EVER. Rollins' reactions to her are incredible. P.S To all of you losing yer shit over the 'soft cock' comment, it was made in jest. That's what Australian's do to people they like.
I absolutely love the Direct humor aggressiveness of the Australian people I have met. I really liked the quiet interviewer that called him a “soft cock” You could tell Henry was looking for a good comeback but decided to go with Self Depreciation which in that case was the best remedy for A Aussie trying to take ya down a few notches
Was this a comedy exchange where Simon Amstell went to Australia & then Adam Hills came to the UK? Here's hoping for future "Last Leg" guest Henry Rollins, hee hee...
I do love this man, he used to be such a prick (still kind of is) but that's what makes him, him! He has very been afraid to speak his mind which at times isn't appropriate but you know he's a great man because of what he does for other people
#JoeStrummer RIP. Thank you #HenryRollins for reminding me how amazing #TheClash were. I love #Blackflag. I saw #Tool open for #Rollinsband circa 1992 #Cottonclub #Atlanta 1992. That was one of the greatest shows I’ve ever seen.
I love Henry...and his "looking at their pagers" reference (I come from the pager era as well lol)....as for everyone getting upset on Henry's behalf regarding the soft-cock phrase...chill out, its a joke and Henry made one back - no need to start getting all snowflaky haha
i just saw the Miller interview where he said he was none of those things the host called him. and his tales of his youth took a 180degree turn too. he is a liar in one of them. He even has that song.... "i am a liar"
Every interview Henry mentions his Dad's very brilliant, but stern and racist outlook on life, and it makes me wonder, did he ever talk to his dad to find out what his GRANDFATHER must have been like to turn his dad into that?
Im confused... he is speaking here like his mother basically raised him and took good care of him taking him to art museums and stuff , but in one of his books I remember him talking about his mom in a much more negative way... im confused
Sure thing. Only the woman was disguised as guy in a mockery, clown-like way. And her joke like was so lame and flat! Kind of German, blunt, and sad clown... Funny is originated by intellect and has to necessarily come out your mouth, not your attire... Rollins is funny during the interview when it comes to it. She ain't funny. Only her attire is an attempt of funny... Huuge difference.
@@chrissychaos correct. It's her manly dimension what triggered that flat joke... On the end is about someone one on the set who is more masculine than you... And you beginn to feel challenged.
Well the both got outclassed and outsmarted by every attempt. That's what they got each and every time they tried... Except of the super flat and anti hilarious "softcock", to which Rollins was clever enough not to react...
Seems like we the whole "Idiocracy" thing is actually happening ... If that is the case than I hope Mr. Rollins gets going and starts an army. Anyone who is full of rage signs up. (ASAP)
"In my country, a lot of people don't travel." Really? I would be willing to wager that Americans travel more miles and to more countries than any other nationality of people...
Though much to the dismay of both the locals and fellow tourists from all other countries. There is no placed I've travelled to that wasn't somehow marred by the presence of loud, ignorant, over-entitled, or obscenely disrespectful American tourists.
I live in Maryland and I am constantly shocked at the number of people who have never left the state, let alone their hometown. Miserable state of affairs tbh.
You can clearly feel how Hannah Gadsby - the chick whom everyone mistakes for a bloke - is starring daggers at Henry. She hates him for being the apex of masculinity. She obviously doesn't know Henry's the most genuinely liberal and (gay)friendly man on the planet. He's best friends with RuPaul. Just goes to show she's only accepting of herself but not others. And Henry's made a tonne of amazing standup specials. She's done none.
@@jaimmerogers4383 This was not meant to belittle her experiences & struggles she mentioned in Nanette, but I didn't think it was funny. It was sad and almost like I'm also at fault for her troubles with dumb people. Henry's crazy stories make you think AND laugh. Like a new age George Carlin.
Literally didn't say a word in the segment, she was respectful and listened intently. Who cares if she even does disagree with his views, stop placing words in someone else's mouth.
@@owenedwards9807 Trust me, no one's trying to put anything in her mouth. But myb you're right. Myb I'm a tad bit chauvinistic. But maybe it's because that's how she labels anyone cis gendered around her in her special. Worst "comedianne" ever.
yeah, I'm pretty sure she was joking but she's very dead pan. you can only a assume she was joking but I've never seen her befor, don't know her sence of humour.
you can just listen to this man and be completely engaged, henry rollins is such a genuine badass
henry rollins is one person i would love to meet and just sit down and talk with.have a lot of respect for him and his views.
me too
Rollins is the worst attention whore, he's fucking lame bruh
@@thomasdupont7186 stfu bitch
He is relatable.

"Im here to meet you"...how perfect is that

and alot of awesome others like tumbleweed, zambian goat herders, magic dirt, brother brick, powder monkeys, hoss, grinspoon, spiderbait, the superjesus, silverchair, buffalo, fort, proton energy pills, masters apprentice, winnebago deal, asteroid b-612
The Living End were a great Australian band, three piece rockabilly/punk outfit, killer live saw them with The Offspring in 1999.
Australia is filled with sick cunts. Never been, but from what I've seen amd heard I cam confirm.
Rose tattoo basically the og punks
Respect to Henry for turning out such a charismatic and humble human being with having a father like his. He's the epitome of punk.my dad is the total opposite.. I'm giving him a bear hug tomorrow.
Mine's a dick :(
My father is great but very narrow vision of the world. And guess what he loves that Son of Bitch Trump. I'm with Rollins
@@phillipjordan3013 Trump 2020! Yaaayy!!!!
@@BeowulfAllraudr you definitely read all of the conversation... idiot
@@MS-il3ht lol! Much love for you too.
I love watching henrys interviews he is always so interesting and well informed
Wow! What a contribution she made!
Its comforting to listen to Henry. Thankful.
How awesome to see Rollins and Simon Amstell on the same show. Very few people can get more sarky than the Amstell.
Outside of Noam Chomsky, Henry Rollins is the first amazing American I've heard with such openness towards the world who accepts his own country is not perfect. Wonderful.
Lol
Henry is such a great dude.

He hasn't aged a day! He is so smart!!
Simon and Henry would be a great comedy duo.
Usually the hecklers are in the audience
I love Henry so much
Henry Rollins And Simon Amstell Interacting Is Priceless
Glad this on here. Fan of all, Rollins, Amstell, Hills.
Simon Amstell and Henry Rollins, woah amazing
Henry Rollins for ever
gotta love the transformation Henry goes through after she called him a softcock. gathered himself excellently, though!
Lyuben Kuzmanov, she calls Simon a softcock. Listen to what they say immediately afterwards.
as someone from ohio, so true. pretty bumming here.
you have not lived in Tennessee, my newfound friend
My goal in life is to be able to start a sentence with "a year ago I was eating rats..."
Go eat some rats now, then in 12 months? BAM! Life goal achieved
@@richorichards4655 I'm working up to it
Plenty of recipes on YT ;)
Rollins kicks ass!
You'd never tell he's a millionair.
one of the most fun interviews ive seen...
yay, the balloon girl is my cousin Tam :)
Aussieirishgal ok I know you said this 3 years ago but SERIOUSLY?! That’s awesome!!
OH....my....fucking....non exitsing..... GAWD
Hand downs
700
Yeah I fucked her
If only they'd also shown the part when Bindi Irwin comes out to be interviewed. BEST EVER. Rollins' reactions to her are incredible.
P.S To all of you losing yer shit over the 'soft cock' comment, it was made in jest. That's what Australian's do to people they like.
I like simon amstells comedy, but when Rollins talks stop and listen - what a boss
Speaking as a former postman, I will say this:
Don't fuck with Dachshunds.
Henry is a great one
I absolutely love the Direct humor aggressiveness of the Australian people I have met. I really liked the quiet interviewer that called him a “soft cock” You could tell Henry was looking for a good comeback but decided to go with Self Depreciation which in that case was the best remedy for A Aussie trying to take ya down a few notches
I'm surprised "Lesbian Harry Potter" didn't come immediately to mind.
Wow henry rollins AND Simon Amstell...quite the combo
6:30 host asks him to tell the story that he`s probably told more than any other story.
I remember watching this & it is still a laugh & interesting. :)
Search "Adam Hills IGST Henry Rollins Bonus" for the stuff they cut out of the interview.
We love you Henry
it's been just under 10yrs since this interview, Bindi is married with her first kid. i feel ancient.
Ahhhh, he's such a cool guy.
Thanks :)
This guy is astonishing
5:40 "First and last vegemite sandwich" haha
Henry Rollins is amazing...
Henry carries himself so well lmao
Was this a comedy exchange where Simon Amstell went to Australia & then Adam Hills came to the UK? Here's hoping for future "Last Leg" guest Henry Rollins, hee hee...
What a top bloke
Henry’s pretty adorable here.
her slur was aimed at simon
I do love this man, he used to be such a prick (still kind of is) but that's what makes him, him! He has very been afraid to speak his mind which at times isn't appropriate but you know he's a great man because of what he does for other people
When I saw Simon was in this I couldn't believe my luck.
Deep capture
Ya got to dig Henry; smart bloke who I reckon could talk under wet cement.
#JoeStrummer RIP. Thank you #HenryRollins for reminding me how amazing #TheClash were. I love #Blackflag. I saw #Tool open for #Rollinsband circa 1992 #Cottonclub #Atlanta 1992. That was one of the greatest shows I’ve ever seen.
his voice slips back into his 20s voice it's scary.

I have to agree with Henry, I've travelled all over, and the US is the country I've felt most unsafe...
travel more.
i just saw the Miller interview where he said he was none of those things the host called him. and his tales of his youth took a 180degree turn too. he is a liar in one of them. He even has that song.... "i am a liar"
Whats with the virgin hecklers on stage??
Wow, Henry = nice guy, or "top bloke".
i think he's witty...at least he doesn't force out jokes like Jack friggin Whitehall
good, good thinking on your feet. or maybe they discussed this backstage?
Did he win something?
thank
Let go your earthly tether,
Enter the void
Empty
And become wind.
INTO THE VOID is quite the flick
Every interview Henry mentions his Dad's very brilliant, but stern and racist outlook on life, and it makes me wonder, did he ever talk to his dad to find out what his GRANDFATHER must have been like to turn his dad into that?
This dude is smart!
Oh yeah shout out to MOC woop woop!
Fucking gorgeous!
Hammerin' Hank rocks!
Im confused... he is speaking here like his mother basically raised him and took good care of him taking him to art museums and stuff , but in one of his books I remember him talking about his mom in a much more negative way... im confused
He's a much different man these days.
Folks, I'm pretty sure the woman who called him a "softcock" was being sarcastic.
Sure thing. Only the woman was disguised as guy in a mockery, clown-like way. And her joke like was so lame and flat! Kind of German, blunt, and sad clown... Funny is originated by intellect and has to necessarily come out your mouth, not your attire... Rollins is funny during the interview when it comes to it. She ain't funny.

She was not. She's a hateful bigot member of the alphabet mafia.
I can confirm that. Cute and fucking aggressive :)
Did anyone else think that was Jesse Eisenberg after having been stung by a bee.
ye
lol that's Simon Amstell and he is a comedian, i know u wouldn't believe it.
Oh I spent years in the UK with him on various TV shows. I would believe he's not a comedian :D
I like Amstell, but what on earth was he doing on an Australian chat show?
Promoting stand up maybe?
Korra should've thrown Vegemite at Zaheer...
WOW, if I may add another comment: Henry ain't no "Softcock"...What an insult to the legend...Shame on you, lady.
@@keithreynolos1045 you're angry he wouldn't fuck you.
It’s a joke..
Even though she was joking she is cringe as all fuck, seemed like a desperate attempt at having input on their conversation
Is that Hannah Gadsby?
@@chrissychaos correct. It's her manly dimension what triggered that flat joke... On the end is about someone one on the set who is more masculine than you... And you beginn to feel challenged.
She's been around this long?
jesse Eisenberg really works that accent.
that lesbian totally hates Rollins.
i think it's killing rats thing that caused that reaction
darren knight you are
Who cares
She’s a cunt
@heyhey heyhey you cannot hate what doesn't exist.
haha, yeah "my mom would take me to paris then london then....". grrr he's very rock & roll though
DAMN IT IM FROM OHIO
So you know first hand it's true
Those comedians shouldn't of interrupted Henry. They weren't funny at all
Well the both got outclassed and outsmarted by every attempt. That's what they got each and every time they tried... Except of the super flat and anti hilarious "softcock", to which Rollins was clever enough not to react...
Didn't he give a different backstory when he was on Howard Stern 2001?
Is that . . . is that Hannah Gadsby?
That is indeed Hannah Gadsby
at 6:29 i would have gotten so pissed how did he hold it together
7:25 lol
I'm surprised this video didn't get taken down because of the gay joke
thought that was jesse eisneberg
Jesse who's? I don't mind
"Sausage dog"
Only here for Simon Amstell
He's just been pretty much the same guy all his life. I bet they bury him in all that black gear. I like Henry.
The other two guests must be really triggered about everything he said.
Seems like we the whole "Idiocracy" thing is actually happening ... If that is the case than I hope Mr. Rollins gets going and starts an army. Anyone who is full of rage signs up. (ASAP)
Clicked for Jesse eisenburg, dissapointed it wasn't.

Being dead pan is what sells the joke
I know this is an old comment but you're right. She was just joking and that's pretty much her delivery for all her jokes.
at 8:16 Henry looked like wanted to tell that woman to "shut the fuck up!" hehehe
