- Henry Rollins, Author, spoken word raconteur & former frontman & lead singer of the seminal American Hardcore Punk band Black Flag and more recently The Rollins Band is LIVE in Australia at the moment & on tour around the Country.
Henry has been to Australia MANY times at least thirty I believe but not 100% sure but Australia has always been a place Henry has enjoyed travelling to even as far back as his Black Flag days and Australians in my opinion would gladly adopt Henry at the drop of a hat he's so loved here.

LMFAO 🤣😁
Are those the same people that thought Rage Against the Machine supported Fascism ? 😂
Henry Rollins, like many so called punk rockers, pretends to fight against injustice while they support the most corrupt politicians.
@@jeremycaudill6916 You mean rage in favor of the machine, right?
I met him. He is a genuinely nice celebrity to meet. He actually spent time talking to me and told me really funny story about when he was filming Heat. What an amazing guy!
Well, what’s the Heat story?
@@mick2spic he told me that when Wes Studi and Al Pacino burst in an cuff him, Michael Mann yelled cut. Al Pacino then brought out a magic marker and drew a moustache on him. He then called for lunch and all the cast and crew left him by himself, handcuffed 😊😊😊😊 They came back 😆😆😆😆
Barry Leslie 😂😂. Nice 👍
Same. Humble, funny and tremendously engaging. I always say never meet your idols, but he is one celeb I am grateful to have shared a conversation.
Yeah I met him as well I was surprised by his amiable nature lol but I was pretty stoked to meet him he's a legend.
How could I say it… Henry Rollins is like a true guide on the way of life. Sharp, clever, funny…
He’s the kind of man who got a future on Earth.
Poetry is not a weak thing, he’s the proof of it.
And pretty damned handsome too!
@@CarinaPrimaBallerina Definitely !
Who would hate Henry Rollins don't agree with everything he says but he ain't stupid
Neither was Hitler.
I am such a Rollins fan, I cant even express. I am so proud of him, and admire him greatly.
Sagaris Starlight Imagine being religious.
@Sagaris Starlight Imagine living with the intellectual capacity of someone in the dark ages. Even the Greeks and Romans didn't give a shit about gays.
I'm gay and religious and I affirm Sagaris's right to believe what he wants to. Conservatism is the new counter-culture punk rawk. :)
@@pleromicpastry5445 the left has won the culture war and so its weird watching punk try to resist the mainstream and also not be part of the new counter culture right/libertarian movements. Just look at Johnnie Rotten, Morrisey (post punk, whatever) they know have conservative leanings and sympathies now. They say that to be young and conservative means you have no heart but to be old and progressive means you have no brains, but is it this age stereotype, or just a need to be contrarian?
Good to see there are good honest people still around who will stand up for what they believe in and not give in to the numbness.
I’d rather he sit down and shut the fuck up.
Being a big fan of Henry Rollins and guns. Loved his opinion on guns. Mental health is a big problem in this country.
keenumman1 you like salmon?
Not particularly. I try to kill everything I eat. So I can gain its soul energy.
I think that’s the case in this country that it’s not gun control but mental health care. It seems we shy away from mental health and illness because of embarrassment or the thought that we can’t let anyone know we’re going crazy. It’s not socially acceptable for certain people so we tend to hide. In my opinion mental health care should be the forefront conversation in gun control.
Believe it or not there are shitty mental health laws worldwide, but it's only America - the land of "guns are awesome hell yeh" - that has regular mass shootings.
It's easy for anybody with a massive grudge to just let loose, but with the gun situation as it is in American, it's easy for most rando's to just pick one up. These are weapons of destruction & we treat them easier than we do cars.
I rarely even see a gun, guess it was like 5-10 years ago I saw a gun, so the shotgun debate of the USA is interesting since it shows that guns are a common thing.
The ‘get out of my country’ and ‘blank lover’ sentiment he talked about is right here in this comment section, amazing. America isn’t interested in the progress he’s talking about. That’s the main problem.
@James Hunt well that’s simply just not true
@James Hunt in terms of actual policies that would be considered “far-left”, we are far behind most industrialized nations. what some people would call “radical left” here is considered centrist in many other countries. i’m not sure what about the us you would considered “far-left” in terms of the world stage.
@@marshorner1573 I think in terms of politics I agree completely. Democrats have been nearly as far right as a lot of industrialised nations popular right wing parties in the past. They were against gay marriage, decriminalisation of drug use and even hard on crime (Clinton and even Biden in the past), for free trade and free market capitalism (neoliberalism), hard on immigration and they still have no social safety net or national healthcare.....Having said that, as far as the whole world is concerned, America is pretty progressive. In terms of industrialised nations perhaps not so much politically, but remember most of the world is not 'the west' and it could be seen as 'problematic' (as the kids these days say) to respond to a claim about the world with a response that leaves out most of the world as if they are insignificant regarding politics.
Henry Rollins, one of the baddest motherfuckers on Earth, I admire this.
"I like being in the private-sector, because I don't have to lie as much!" ! ! !
I'd rather have Henry for President.
Henry is one of the coolest people around.
true
Check out the interview between him and Jesse Ventura. Very cool.
When Henry speaks I listen. Highly intelligent man.
He's absolutely right about taking a second look at mental health and stepping in to help people before they go over the edge. There are usually signs before someone gets to that point.
Why don’t you lead the way and help someone. Or are you like all liberals and want someone else to do it and pay for it.
@@JK-vc7ie Thanks for proving the point.
@@JK-vc7ie You need a dollar to buy a clue.
@@ferox965 What I said is true. Sorry that it hurts your feelings.
Henry should get involved in politics. He has a lot of common sense and is no nonsense about life. Practical and realistic.
Deadass he could actually be good. He's got the perspective and he's got the willpower and he's got the charisma. If a damn reality tv star (admittedly with lots of money) can be president, then a working man like Henry could AT LEAST hold a city or state office.
I agree hes veryinformed and with many politicians having rough pasts now in this era; he might have a chance.
jello biafra ran in 2000 but didn't get any votes
If he changes all of his views I would agree with you.
The thing about power is that a lot of the people who would be best trusted with it, don't fucking want it.
I dont agree with all he says, but I respect Rollins for what he stands for.
the Australian people never decided to give up their guns...one politician decided he would take the guns from them.....it was never put to a popular vote...don't lie about this.
Indeed. Untill any population confronts it's juvinile use of firearms (look at the recent death of Hustle), it will get no where.
They have a positive use and they have a negative one. If society figures out how to reduce the latter, the politician wont have need.
While society's popular focus is on "outlaw" behavior as a positive, it will render what it cooks up.
If you are just holding on to your gun because its all you have to identify with, for fucks sake, get a teddy bear.
I'd pretty much guarantee that given the chance to vote, the outcome would have been the same.
@WhoDarestheMAN gamer Yea and if you didn't give them back and they found out you still had them, they would take them.
You are full of shit.
No. I'm full of shit
Now i need a shit.
The more humble version of Henry Rollins.. funny what age does.
Agreed, SO different from the "young" Rollins 100%!
He's already put his time in being hardcore, we know it , its why we love calm Henry, we know that rage is ALWAYS there😁🖤🖤👍👍👍
I mean yeah age... And not being on cocaine all the time might help too
@@CookF he doesn't do drugs bro
It’s called wisdom. With time every inteligent person reflects on his experiances and grows or evolved. He has not changed. He just has a wider perspective on life. Legend🤘😎
"cause im a liar! yeah!"
"I will turn you into me..."
I like it! It feels good!
Thank You Henry Rollins....you are a breath of fresh air in a world chocking with agendas! Everybody’s on the defensive trying to build themselves up because they don’t believe in themselves. Don’t worry Henry...there are a lot of us out there who love you for your truthful perceptions. You are a magnet for those who are afraid of truth...but hey they are part of the show too cuz without them no one would know what needs fixing. We’re all in this together. 😀
I’ve had the privilege of seeing him live he’s amazing
Henry is a rare American, he is rational.
Merriam Webster dictionary definition of intensity should be a one page closeup image of Henry Rollins
If I had my way I'd listen to you all night Henry! Love this guy.
He is an engaging guy with a lot of history, smarts, experience and knowledge. Unfortunately, he is too smart to avoid getting into some level of politics where he could probably do some good work.
Good to see some people appreciating the robin hood type fight henry has had.
Henry Rollins for President!!!
There I said it. 😁
God damn I love this man
"you have to go deeper and lift a heavier weight", what a fantastic comment, Henry Rollins, what an absolute force!
I am very pro gun yet I agree gun laws are pretty shitty in the effectiveness of how they work... but what really matters mental health
i agreed with him on guns but not about the rest of it....
Henry Rollins is awesome
I love that the most extreme elimination challenge was at the end of this clip 😂😂😂😂😂
Henry, my spirit animal.
Is vote for him if he ran for president, I like the way he thinks.
Henry speaks the truth. As Always.
Yeah man! Such a talented guy! Long live Henry! Excellent!
He is bang on about Trump. He is a disaster. I just became familiar with Henry Rollins from First we Feast. There seems to be a lot of intelligence around his world view. And I suspect he doesn't take bullshit too well.
Yeah ok. How are things now under Biden. I’ll take Trump back in a heartbeat!
@@mustang7603 You can have that dbag!
@@DCB728 I'd rather have that "dbag" than pay 6 bucks for gas under YOUR dbag, you dummy :D:D
@@itkojecockot $6 for gas? You must be in CA. I pay $3.30. So who's the dummy now? BTW, whoever is president has very little effect on the price of gas. Gas has been high with Democrats and Republicans.
@@DCB728 gas was never this high under Trump.... so you're still the dummy
His opinion on gay marriage was great, "I love your country, but this is below you," best way to put it
4 years later , Boom , Henry predicts the future ....
Yeah man. I love Henry. He's a badass!
A wise man!
(@6:27): My favorite part of this video!
Someone please make it into a gif!
5:26 Prediction of truth.
Scary huh?
If two men wants to get married, I don't see why I should give a fuck.
pissing at the takeshis castle scene at the end. it is the best TV show ever, period.
For some reason Henry always looks like an alien who isn't wearing his human skin _quite_ right, when he's in a situation like this. He looks so out of place!
the humiliation of havin those sad tatts for so long
let us pray 4 him.
Andi Kravljaca his human skin is askew
No, you're thinking of most major Republican politicians. Nothing against them for it, but it's true.
Most punks are
Its the hair. Not used to see shaggy Hank.
I have never been a fan of his music, but I LOVE to watch him talk. He just seems like such an amazing human.
Rollins called it perfectly.
"We're ahead of you with guns"
Shut up Australia
Henry's got it decently ok. Humanitarian aid>laws
The first 2 minutes Henry looked like he was going to pass out! He is just so intense!
Nathan Clarke holding in his gayness for 50 plus years has taken a toll
I can't stand celebrity worship and fawning over rock musicians. This comment section is kind of depressing in that regard but some of the comments are well articulated and give me hope for the human race.
You are so right on the gun issue Henry. We made hand guns illegal in the uk which immediately made all guns remaining untraceable. Making guns illegal isn't going to make someone with mental issues or of violent tendencies think, 'Oh hey, you know what... I'm gonna hand this in'
+Andi Jones - good point mate.
while its not going to magically make them vanish, do you dispute that gun violence is massively higher in America? that school shootings are drastically more common, and that mass shootings happen very close to daily here, and happen with a much lower regularity in any other advanced country? Mental health does not address the shootings in custody fights, or when an abuse spouse shoots his ex, or in the hate crimes that have gone up in the last 3 years.. again, those happen regularly here, and far less elsewhere. I guess i disagree with one of henry's points, he says that if someone wants to kill someone, then he can sharpen a stick...you know, a the thing about a gun is it doesn't matter if you are obese, physically weak, so long as you can point and click, you can kill someone with a gun. a sharpened stick is either going to require a vulnerable target, like the elderly people that guy in japan attacked with a knife, or a degree of skill to kill someone before they can escape. even the cars and bombs that gun lovers tend to call out require either technical skill, in the case of the bomb, or have a relatively low kill count. Guns are the sweet spot for a violent person to kill a lot of people with little skill or education.
Henry is not trying to change the world, he's just taking advantage of his situation. Wouldn't you if you had the chance?
the only thing making me not hate this video of an absolutely trash TV show is that there's an absolute legend in it
People needs more education. Word.
I fuckin love the endings :)
Older vid but I wonder how many of these numpties would have lined up for a Black Flag gig ? Rollins wasn't the sociopath that many would have you believe, but I cant say the same for some of the audience - they just didnt expect retribution.
He has become the opposite of what he stood for back in the early 80's as far as money. Ironically at the same time he still has some good things to say. He is a really a good poet. I have been off and on with his stuff since I saw Black Flag live in 1984. You see, I am an old punk and always will have f*** the government in my blood.
I've been off his stuff for about the last 4-5 yrs.
All his work w/ the Military did that imo, it changed him and NOT a good way! Peace JM
@@JamesDeWeaver I get it. A lot of these guys sold their soul if you know what I mean. Some bought out along the way. I like to remember the old days of stage diving, clove cigarettes, and body odor, sweat !! And an awareness of what was going on with the government. Lol !! Now, people turn with a blind eye with what is really going on. I am a War Historian, and I have had people in my family fight in every war in this country, and for what? However, at the same time, I do honor my family, just not the government. Peace ! Stay safe !
Being a known punk band with a record label is the biggest hypocrisy.
Henry needs to get a band together and make another album already - it's been way too long. And I find it hard to believe that he can't come up with lyrics - he always has so much to say. All he has to do is write lyrics about some of the topics he talks about in his spoken word/stand-up act.
That means incorporating melodies, sometimes rhymes, and other song oriented structures which would probably interfere with the primary expression in his story telling. I can see his perspective.
No offence but have you ever tried writing lyrics? Were they worth hearing?
There's a reason bands say writing lyrics is the hardest part. Well for serious bands anyway.
@@somewhatsomething4882
No, I've never written lyrics - I've only been doing it for the last 32+ years. And yes, I think some of them were pretty damn good.
🇺🇸HANK FOR PRESIDENT 2024🇺🇸
Wow never thought I’d ever agree with him
Henry Rollins for president
Bill Maguire I was just saying that.
Bill Maguire. Why Henry Rollins is a sell-out Donald Trump is anti New World Order
I met Henry when I was 19 and I'm 34 now.. intense!
Thank you to Henry Rollins for telling like it is.
Like the man say,always full on...east coast attitude and passionate
Very well spoken!
Henry is just an all around legend
Henry is a very talented, smart man.
He is soooo chilled now!!
He was awesome in he never really died great movie on Netflix
Henry Rollins=Sharp critical thinking. Raw.
Its great when you are a rich rock star but totally different when you are a hard worker in a factory then that Illegal comes and takes your job only because he gets paid less money NO MATTER the lack of skills
Gotta love mxc
100%!
He cracks me up. Do you ever come to Cincinnati, I have to go see him
Hey Henry you are part of the system now!
This guy is sharp
Talented divisional tool
Strait forward! Always prepared to answer well. Smart dude ,will make you think about the question and the answer.
Nice to see that Henry has "evolved" past his intense angry, brooding personna....although that IS what made him great, it's important to adapt.
Live long and prosper Henry, I remember seeing your shows with Black Flag...classic stuff.
Haha old mate went straight to the gun thing as soon as he heard something he didn't like.
I remember the good dc days when Henry's band played. I like his take on issues that are relevent. But don't you have one last song up your sleeve.
People aren't sellouts if they are just always themselves.
I used to really like Rollins. I actually even tattooed the Skeletal Sun my forearm. Then I grew up. I would love to hear him debate intelligent people with his profound opinions on the way we should be
Why all the hate? What was so wrong with what he said?
What rights don’t gay people have? It’s a genuine question. I have a couple gay friends and coworkers and they never mention anything about having “gay rights”. They can get married here if they want, they have good jobs, I’m just confused as to what a “gay right” is.
He so damn right!
💗💗💗
CHECK OUT THE BAND STAR CRAWLER.SONG CHICKEN WOMEN. FEMALE SINGER FROM LA.
Go Henry Rollins for president;) like seriously maybe;):)!!
EVERYTHING about Henry Rollins is totally cool, amazing Guy. ... but for ME, being a Musician, the COOLEST THING about Henry is the fact that his home stereo speakers cost him $260 000!!! ... JUST THE SPEAKERS!!!! .... no shit, look it up!
Rollins for president
He's VERY Well articulated about the systematic problem of "trumpism" and the dulled down intellect of American culture. Mental health is a symptom of our culture though to and he seems to miss that point
I think it's hilarious that people actually consider Henry Rollins to be anti authoritarian
Lol Henry looks like he wants to jump out the window and run the down the street back home in this interview
Henry is truth
LoL this interview has not aged well
How so?
@@DCB728 LIfe was much better for the overwhelming majority of Americans when Trump was president than it is for them now with Biden. That's how so.
@@DCB728 Gas prices, dead marines in Afghinstan, Russia invading Ukraine. Things were better when he was president and anyone that thinks they're better with Mr. Magoo is a friggin moron.
Agrees
Are you kidding? He was spot on about literally everything...
With hair now that hes old he kinda looks like Harrison Ford
You're right!
great guy
Did anyone else hear block rocking beats by the Chemical Brothers in the intro?
While I agree that the US has to improve their mental healthcare system, I don´t think that any "psycho", not matter how angry and deranged the specific individual might be, could kill 50+ people and injure 500+ more in a couple of minutes using a pointed stick.
Edgy schticks like his always run out of gas. Rollins is a lounge act now. In fact, he always was. Just changed lounges.
Holy crap... Henry Rollins using tact instead of being brutally blunt? You're not Henry Rollins! Where's Henry!?!? What have you done with him!!!
Right on Henry! :)
