17. Horschack. Rollins' neck is disgusting.
He looks so tense all the time, it gives me a headache. His eyes look psychotic.

18. I was quoting Beavis and Butthead.
But, yeah, Henry looks a little tense most of the time. :D

3. I have met Henry Rollins a couple of times
He came in to the record store where I worked once, and stayed and chatted for an hour about jazz.
Then a few years later, when I was here at my corporate gig, he came and played for us in our lunch room.

So in my two Henry Rollins encounters, I would have to say he seems to be a really decent guy with a huge passion for music. That gets my vote.

9. he was very generous with his time before a show in Providence
on the End of Silence tour. I saw him standing in the wings drinking coffee and was able to get his attention, told him I was a fan, loved his Rollins Band stuff as well as his Black Flag material. He smiled. We shook hands. I told him that he was one of the reasons I'd started writing. He thanked me then sent a cool photo and letter to the college station where I worked as a DJ.

Classy guy all around.

15. he did a signing at the big bookstore across the street from...
the record store where I was working, later in the day after the first time I met him.

Several people came in to my store after meeting him - he apparently was telling people in line that they should go talk to the really cool girl at the indie store across the street. I was so flattered!

10. Did anyone ever see that "Unsolved Mysteries"
that Rollins was on?

Seriously, he and a friend (who was a talented photographer, I believe) were mugged and his friend was murdered. The muggers got away.

I guess they were trying all means to find the guy's murderers; I just remember being surprised when I saw Henry Rollins on that show.

Kind of like seeing Johnny Rotten on Judge Judy, or whatever daytime "judge show" he was on, when I was channel surfing once.

19. Woah, I saw that!
I was channel surfing and just saw Rollins there, had no idea it was Unsovled Mysteries. I assumed it was something to do with Black Flag or Rollins Band or something.

11. Rollins' spoken-word "Family Man" is one of my all-time faves
So my vote goes to him!

16. horshack is huge diva
not that is such an earth shaking opinion to say.

he was in a production this fall of inherit the wind in ivoryton, ct. i had some friends in the cast who said he was totally obnoxious.

come on now, you're some huge rock star and you're performing for a bunch of blue hairs in ct?

i saw henry rollins on one of his several spoken word tours in the mid-nineties. what can you say? he's the man.
