| God Help Us - Henry Rollins To Give 'Spoken Word' Performance to Troops |
| 2004-08-04 |
| Via FARK. Angry rocker Henry Rollins is heading off to Honduras to entertain troops -- but he won't be singing. Rollins plans to give a spoken word performance to the soldiers. 1) My buddy went to one of these four years ago at the Berklee Performance Center. To quote the 'Men On Film' guys - HATED IT!!! 2) As noted here some time ago, there's an uncanny resemblance between Rollins and the guy playing the soldier in the DOOM game. Coincidence? |

| #7 Growler & BH got it just about right. Henry's so bad, he's mezmerising. Like a train wreck. |

| #6 Former lead shouter for Black Flag, then went on to form The Rollins Group. Black Flag was great punk. Rollins Group was loud and annoying. |

| #2 Raj, I miss the "Men on..." skits--they were hilarious! This spoken word dealie sounds like a nightmare! Haven't our troops given enough without putting them through this as "entertainment?" |

| #1 Entertain, or undermine? I used to like Hank back in the day, but lately he's been a real asshat. |
