People keep asking me what I think about this video. I think he was confusing the kids today with the kids yesterday.
People keep asking me what I think about this video. I think he was confusing the kids today with the kids yesterday. All us old guys feel insecure around beautiful, young people and you’re already uncomfortable when you bring a huge camera into a place like that so I understand why Rollins flew off the handle like that but he was wrong.
What I don’t think he gets about those kids is they were just fucking around. They didn’t see him as a sell-out or a washed-up old has been. They just thought it was neat he was there and after he left, they would have forgotten about it. The whole “Fuck you old man. You sold out” thing was big when Rollins was around (see video below at 1:43). If Johnny Rotten walked into a hardcore show in the 80s, kids would laugh and spit at him and all that because punk and hardcore were almost fascist about being young and unknown. It was a rules game. It’s not this time around. In fact, it’s the opposite. It’s way more “anything goes” than punk ever was.
Young people today don’t want to get into it with old people because old people are fucking obsessed with them and want to know about their tattoos and how they pay their bills. Their elders write cover stories about them and draw graphs of how often they take a dump. I think these so-called Hipsters just want to get on with their day and avoid the whole debate.
And by the way Henry. Why didn’t you believe her when she told you that boring “trust fund hipster” stereotype didn’t apply to her? You have money. You know the markets. Nobody’s making more than 5% these days. That means, for her to have $50,000 a year to spend in Manhattan, her parents would have had to put aside a million dollars AFTER the $250k school costs and the $250k for a suburban home and the $1m it takes to retire etc. etc. You think all these kid’s parents have an extra million dollars lying around? The only “trust funding” going on in New York is the odd parent paying their kid’s rent and the only time I’ve seen that is with Jewish girls (three, to be exact).
Rollins handled this poorly and didn’t even save it when he realized they weren’t punks from the 80s mocking him for leaving Generation X to become Billy Idol. They don’t care if he reviews movies now or is on German TV. Go bananas. To get all in their grill, then try to bring Iranian sexism into it, and then end the whole thing with a diatribe about how Get in the Van is “a very famous book I wrote” that won a Grammy etc. Eesh. Relax. Nobody thinks you’re a sell out and when you hear someone say “Get in the van, man” they mean nothing more than, “Hey, you’re that guy from Black Flag who wrote that book.”
Just yesterday I was listening to Black Flag and thinking about how I feel about Henry Rollins. I can’t figure it out.
The first punk record was Black Flag’s My War. I got it for my 14th birthday. It pretty much changed my life.
That being said it’s one of my least favorite Black Flag albums. I don’t really like any of their stuff after Damage.
But Rollins’s first band SOA is one of my favorite bands of all time. Their record is song for song my favorite piece of music.
Then again, Rollins totally writes SOA off.
I think the guy is funny and I like a lot of what he says, but he is also such an egotist and seems like so intent on being the “asshole Rollins” to everyone.
I guess if you have been called a sell out your entire life it might be hard to deal with girls yelling shit at you at a record store, but I don’t really know.
The guy has had such an impact on my life and the photography in Get in The Van is one of the things that made me become a photographer, but I also sort of hate the guy.
I used to like this guy… seems kind of douche like. “A very famous book I wrote. The audio book won a grammy”… blah, blah, blah…
I don’t have any pics of my punk days because even bringing a camera to a show was seen as selling out. You were seen as a poser if you had any punk pics. The exception was the guy (every town had one) who would take black and white pics of bands and then process them in his dark room.
I’m 22 and appreciate the dude and all he’s done, honestly, I’ll be real bummed when I hear Henry Rollins has died. But he’s always been kind of an asshole jock, ever hear his rantings on electronic music?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyRDDOpKaLM
What a grump. I know he knows he’s a grump, doesn’t justify it.
well played, gavin. i like mr. rollins a lot, and im sure that i would be the first to call the kids in this video fags, but henry strait up looked like an asshole here by pretty much getting owned by some high school kids. maybe he should read more sc?
Henry Rollins is pretty much a professional idiot shivers giver.
Henry wasn’t wrong. He was just having a good time, the only way he knows how.
thinks it’s all about him, thinks he’s being stalked, he’s just like Raymi, lol.
who are all these old people who give a shit about hipsters? all those “effing hipsters” and “how do the hipsters pay their bills??” and “trust-fund hipsters take over ______” articles are written for the pure sake of SEO and site traffic/advertising $, which is primarily generated by the only people able to sit at their computers all day; namely, “effing hipsters.” old people have zany shit like kids/mortgages/impending death/cancer/taxes to worry about, and little time to feel self conscious about “beautiful young people”
You guys are forgetting a pretty big factor here: Gays. They’re the ones who give a shit about these “effing hipsters.”
Gays run Gawker and New York Magazine and Time Out Magazine and Village Voice. They have the time and the money to get into all this.
Anybody go to see that Off! show at Europa a week or 2 ago?
Keith Morris was pretty cranky too.
“So… When she yelled out GET IN THE VAN! That was a title of a very famous book I wrote. The audiobook won a grammy. Well it’s basically… I should send you it…”
DId he unzip his pants and start sucking himself off right after that?
Even with my criticisms of today, that was a very cringy “damn kids on the lawn again” moment…
Rollins is a hack with his new gig at Vanity Fair. The guy simply taking prevailing liberal mores and fails to extrapolate them in an intelligent or humourous manner, all the while assuming that his basis is the “not dumb one”.
Gavin McInnes has already proven himself to be better at the political polemic with his stuff at Taki’s than Rollins. His latest piece is just awful:
http://www.vanityfair.com/online/daily/2010/11/sanity-is-looking-pretty-good-right-now.html
Self-righteous garbage and recycled shibboleths which prompted me to post a response:
“Henry Rollins has all the political sophistication of Christine O’Donnell. A total hack with absolutely zero of substance to contribute. We are all more stupid for having read this.”
Can you NOT use shibboleths? That’s beyond SAT usage. That’s the worst thing about conservative intellectuals. They are even more snobby than faggy liberals ones.
Do you know Rollins? Were you actually in the scene in the 80s or still up in Canuckyville? You shouldn’t open your mouth if you’re going to be such an ignorant hack. You still don’t get what the 70s and 80s were about.
A very accurate assessment of that shit. He reverted to stereotype so quickly within meeting those girls that he obviously has no idea who he is talking to (e.g. someone who likely respects/admires his past work). It’s too bad the greaser at the end got that privilege. Este chalis.
I liked Henry Rollins in Johnny Mnemonic. Just sayin’
Rollins band was probably the most overrated group ever
wow, those “hipsters” weren’t giving him any kind of shit….
It’s pretty dumb to have such an automatically adversarial attitude towards the 10% of the population who recognize you as some form of celebrity versus “that guy who played a cop in all those terrible 90′s movies”.
Henry Rollins is a fag.
Doesn’t justify his raggin’ on the youths.
i like keith better
Taeil:
Carl’s Jr. pays me to use the word “shibboleths”.
Fuck you, I’m eating!
Eh, Rollins was a little right and a little wrong. No, they weren’t “giving him shit”, or at least not in any way that you can point your finger at and say, “There! There’s where they made fun of him.” But they WERE heckling him in that very (sorry) HIPSTER way, or if you want to get even more generalizing, the way of all youth now where you blithely make fun of something without sticking your neck too far out out of fear. When she screamed, “Henry Rollins is here?!” he was right in picking out the sarcastic excitement. Did she think it was cool that he was there? A little. Did she also think it was lame? A little, too. That’s the worst part of this generation, honestly: everything’s a mud covered sloth pit of half measures.
quadruple x is right on. us old school dudes are on at all times. hipsters have no neck.
skull front
Keith Morris is way better now than Rollins ever was. Keith’s also a Los Feliz neighbor. If Rollins was my neighbor, I’d move… but likely have a lot of money because that douche is rich. Honestly, we’d all be better off if he just went away.
Henry Rollins once was cool.Now he’s old and corny and has his head up his ass. Thanks for the update, guy who is exactly like Henry Rollins.
Know who has aged gracefully? Greg Ginn.
I see you got a low self-opinion man…I see you standing all by yourself. you always victimize. so you can criticize yourself and others around you
meanwhile thurston “yes I am in fact 51, you dicks!” moore is rocking out and still not giving a shit.
Gavin McInness is the Mickey Rooney of hipsters. He’s the calm voice of reason at the end of every rowdy segment.
I didn’t know Eighties Hardcore covered that BAKE A CHERRY PIE song…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNhDTPl4TyI
Old man Rollins seems to be just as awkwardly self-conscious as the types of people he was disparaging in this video.
Holy shit, quadruple x said it perfectly.
I’m going to copy and paste his comment – right fucking on:
“Eh, Rollins was a little right and a little wrong. No, they weren’t “giving him shit”, or at least not in any way that you can point your finger at and say, “There! There’s where they made fun of him.” But they WERE heckling him in that very (sorry) HIPSTER way, or if you want to get even more generalizing, the way of all youth now where you blithely make fun of something without sticking your neck too far out out of fear.

Hipsters are Gavin MacInness’ meal ticket.
SELF CENTERED
“I’m the 45-year-old narc.”
You’re 49, bro. And you have been, for about 20 years.
what the fuck, they didn’t say shit to this dude that would indicate “elitism” or any of that shit he said
Rollins’ 1st band still kicks ass
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysqXCbhtkuc&feature=related
I got a Black Flag tattoo for Nervous Breakdown ONLY. Keith and fucking Dez killed it way more than that fucking asswipe Henry Rollins. Ever see his performance on SNL in Rollins Band? I almost took a cheese grater to my arm so nobody could ever lump me in with fans of his. Fuck that guy.
PS – The kid he intimidates like a jock in that video below killed himself less than a year later. FACT.
Rollins’ biggest unforced error is this: he’s too self-involved to have noticed that being halfway respectful of other people is the new Punk. Being decent to people really throws ‘em off!!
Look how Rollins reacts to polite acknowledgement of his celebrity: he pushes angrily, his youthful interlocuters step aside politely–and his momentum sends him crashing down flat on his confused angry face.
The kids absentmindedly deflated him with a classic judo ‘no-resistance’ move.
He’s left punching at the air.
I was never a Rollins enthusiast although I did enjoy “my war” while driving. It was pretty good first three beers-music when you were in your mid teens.
But you have to give the guy a pass because of the 90′s. Imagine you’re Henry, it’s 1992, Lolapalooza is going on, Jocks are starting to trade in Bryan Adams for Nirvana and Pearl Jam… what the fuck was he supposed to do? Become an accountant? Get a construction job? Try to mix in with that rave stuff and become DJ Rollins?
He made a reasonable choice in a really gay era: put out lame Helmet type crap and sell off little chunks of credibility to people who were willing to pay him for it.
Thankfully the shit storm is over now, but you can’t blame him for being a little frazzled.
Anyway, the thing I really wanted to say was he was actually quite terrific in the film Heat.
the man is just fucking awkward.he makes me hate myself for loving something he’s done.it’s over asshole, retire and shut the fuck up.no offence to the elderly, but age with grace, man.don’t go erasing the only good you’ve done.
The guy was in a hardcore band man. That doesn’t really give you the option of acting sexy because it’s music for young boys. He kind of had to play the political angle. Could have been worse. Take Ian Svenonius for example. Why the hell does that tedious fag get so much respect?
Keith is in that band OFF! now. I liked them better when they were called Circle Jerks.
Also. Latter day Black Flag is an acquired taste. That’s all I gotta say. And Rollins cameo in Johnny Mnemonic is priceless.
I was the best singer in Black Flag
Oh look. It’s become a “Who was the best singer for Flag” thread.
My friend once hung out with Keith and for whatever reason he would bitch about the Jewish mafia running the media and the world bank. He’s a bitter old man now that just partied in the 80′s came out of it with no real career. He HATES what he does now and simply does the punk rock thang for money. He’s now a bitter, senile self-hating Jew.
His parents are very nice however and probably dead now. He was the real dick singer out of the Black Flag, trust me.
Chavo (Ron Reyes) became born again and built a church in Torrance.
Dez Cadena. That dude did A LOT of drugs.
Henry Rollins reminded me of my drill instructors in boot camp in that video. If that kid really did kill himself OVER THAT single experience, he was weak and a benefitted humanity taking himself out the gene pool.
Anyways, being a kid who grew up in the South Bay of Los Angeles county, you just happen to know these things.
c’mon gavin, this is not a regular guy. he’s henry the rollins aka walking paranoia. guy punches himself in the mirror every morning. what would you expect? by the way, fuck you all, I’m drunk
i think this anonymous comment REALLY cracks this whole case wide open:
“# Anonymous Says:

Gays run Gawker and New York Magazine and Time Out Magazine and Village Voice. They have the time and the money to get into all this.
11.05.10 at 5:04 pm”
ie: yeah, the only people who are really thinking about hipsters are gay media people (and by gay i mean homosexual)
what the fuck is up with rollins.
Dude is so emotionally crippled he gets to park in handicapped spaces.
best line in responses:
“That’s the worst part of this generation, honestly: everything’s a mud covered sloth pit of half measures.”
Welp. I’m not into hardcore, but I think all you look like whiny bitches. Because hardcore is only about loud extreme sound and mosh pits in the shows. Guys, too many talks. Don’t be Lady Gaga bitches.
no need to over-analyze. he stated very clearly what they are doing. they are “just picking up the flavor of the east village.” fair enough. he also states that get in the van is “a book that a lot of musicians have seen or whatever.” not necessarily read, but at least seen.
the girl was being an idiot and Henry overreacted. the woman from Iran and the store owner seem nice.
grumpy old man is very insightful. everyone already knows rollins is a dick. you know that going in to hanging out with him. german tv is fucking weird. why would you even pair the iranian chick with him? itd be great if she shat on him in the end. what country was this shot in? man, E! is the worst, from kardashians to coyote ugly. dan from roseanne is in this. is that what ny is like? how come you all are into gimmicky cowboy bars? i fell off the stage last night. im the best worst.
I’ve watched this a few times,trying to keep in mind that I wasn’t there and don’t know the whole story mindset but I can say that Henry was totally out of line 100% of the time,from start to finish. He comes off as a guy who walks in there with the explicit purpose of starting a fight. For someone who’s so self conscious about being called a sell-out rock star,walking into a indie coffee shop/record store and talking trash on all the bands in the music bin is a really sell-out rock star thing to do. I understand that there’s some music he just doesn’t like but not all indie music has to be an extension of what he did with Black Flag. Artist working in other genres have a right to minimalism getting fucked over by major labels too. This is a bit of a disappointment as I’ve meet him a couple of times and he was really cool to me both times when I’m sure he had better things to do. I’ve met/talked with other people who’ve had similar experiences with him and thought he was a really nice approachable guy. Kudos to the girl for having the stones to give him some of hist shit attitude right back at him.
SOA!!!!! haha…even if they were giving him shit…and who knows if they were…WHY DOES HE CARE?
Let’s start to address this issue from the beginning…dude’s a high school graduate and not even a jock…anyone can tell…so basically he has no where to fit in, since the beginning…everything else is our fault (get me?)
RESPECT to: Henry LOLins, Anonymous, Rhoda, Flexibe Youth, Kira
Unless Gavin is full of shit, NY must be really different from the West Coast. Speaking of LA and SF, both places are lousy with kids getting money from home.
Why is a man who is around 50 years old so worried about what people think of him? Insecure, maybe? Is he so righteous he has to teach everyone a lesson in life?
Get him a t-shirt that says “I AM A MOTHERFUCKER.”
A friend of mine ran into Henry Rollins in Wal-Mart. My friend said, “you’re henry rollins!” Rollins says, “yes I am.” then my friend goes, “I LOVED you in Wrong Turn 2″. How awesome is that??
the fuck is rollins on about? is he trying to translate contemporary american culture into something an indoctrinated european faggot would understand? talk about jumping the shark
also whoever made the point about the gay media actually might be on to something. who knows, i’m shitfaced.
Niccolo’s point about shibboleths is a good one. It’s the perfect word to describe the situation that unfolded with Rollins; when he’s talking about things like “the proletariat,” and “selling out” he’s attempting to use buzzwords that had sway with “cool people” at one point in time. The problem being, that was more than 20 years ago and his worldview is just too parochial and dated to get up to speed with reality.
That’s the nature of the politicized version of “cool”. It’s basically why Kim Jong Il wears a pantsuit and looks like a comical faggot. It’s also why Taeil thinks the word “shibboleth” is too obscure and/or “snobby” (since he was edumacated by commies).
Basically there’s nothing quite like the schadenfreude of witnessing a (financially successful) would-be revolutionary battling “the system” and wrestling with cognitive dissonance. Especially when one understands the revolutionary mantras were all lies spoonfed to them by other (financially successful) would-be revolutionaries. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Ugh.
Henry’s manner throughout the entire video piece is contrived, antagonistic, condescending, self-absorbed, blah blah, etc… He isn’t just an asshole to the punker chicks, his bullshit posturing with the Iranian woman felt equally corny and unnecessary. From start to finish his vibe wreaked of a bad skit.
ZZZZzzzzzz….
Note to Mr Garfield—relax. You’ve clearly got a hellhole nightmare for a brain.
Were this a Will Farrell skit it would’ve been way more funny.
Interesting to see how all the bitter, old people came out of the creaky woodworks for this one.
“That’s the worst part of this generation, honestly: everything’s a mud covered sloth pit of half measures.”
You know what’s worse than that? Overearnest punk and hardcore kids shouting, angry unambiguous and ultimately naïve statements in a futile attempt to change ‘the system.’ Real change is political process: boring, colourless and yes, sometimes compromises through ‘a sloth pit of half measures’. Pierced nipples and mosh pits have nothing to do with that. Grow the fuck up, old man.
Fuck those kids. They should be shot in the back of the head. Kids today are pussies. They talk insane amounts of shit and never get their ass deservedly kicked enough. I’m sick of everybody shitting on Henry Rollins for reacting wrong, even if he was clearly carrying a long-term resentment. Those girls fucked up a whole production, wasting everybody’s time. And they were fucking with him while he was trying to impress the Iranian woman. The fact that he is kind of, slightly a douche is beside the point. They should have kept their shitty mouths shut.
Hey Henry. Being a massive sell-out is obviously not making you happy. Your conscience is eating your brain. Maybe it’s time to rethink your lifestyle choices, you clown.
“You know what’s worse than that?

and then there’s the worst thing of all. being a massive pussy who spends his time trying to justify his ineffectual pussy stance in life. you’re the reason that colossal, corporate bootlicking failure was washed into office two years ago on a tide of hope for acceptance within a fully corrupt political system. nice going, tats for brains.
Chim Chim is exactly right.
Nobody has ever composed an acceptable definition of punk, but releasing so many recordings of yourself talking that they could fill an entire wing of the Library of Congress is definitely not punk.
the biggest no no for those girls was that they did kind of ruin the shot. i hate that, when some idiot yells into the camera or whatever. usually it’s a 40 year old black guy though. i wish it were girls that look like them. meow!
still henry rollins is horrible and black flag is a bore.
ugh i understand.when i was like 15 this group of homeless “punk” kids gave me the finger and yelled at me for no real reason. all i wanted to do was be alternative. being rejected by “punk” kids made me super punk rock. thanks whores. i am cooler than you. sometimes its hard to be cool, and ironic.
@ the revolution industry
I like your thinking, kiddo. Tell ya what, why don’t I have you ‘coptered to my decommisioned carrier, we’ll play a little polo on-deck (the turf’s finally grown in!) and we’ll talk about how you might fit with the project I’m working on with Gavin. It’s called GaVision/Fox-Lite and it’s going to promote/obscure the agenda for the student-loan/pharm-opoid derivatives markets.
On the fun side, I should mention this weekend’s especial incentive–Taki’s negress will of course be serving those famous canapes!
Welcome to the team. And be assured—-although it hardly needs saying—-that your involvement, like Henry’s, will be kept strictly on the down-low.
leave Henry alone!!! he’s a human!!
Invitation accepted.
But promise me you’ll have a harem of eastern-european jailbait to peg me and feed me percocets.
Andrew WK is everything Rollins wishes he could be.
I skipped everything after grumpy old man’s comment because his was a masterful summary.
are you for fuckin shittin me?
reshoot the scene in front of Danzig’s ex-house!
drink. don’t think, kill!
the chase totally ruled…
hank is still pretty rad… better now than he was in the ninties, at least. i totally went to his spoken word tour at porter hall (gavin knows what i’m talking aboot!). “so, ian mackeye and i worked at haagen daas…” that was corny… but it’s rollins! cut the man some slack. i could only imagine being an old dude that was simultaneously mocked and revered… shit, i WISH i was that relevant…
he totally hooked-up with the journalist though, yeah?
No, he spent the whole time trying to get into her pants, and the whole time she was like “um dude, I’m just on TV right now promoting my book (or whatever)”.
Rollins, is it you?
‘and then there’s the worst thing of all. being a massive pussy who spends his time trying to justify his ineffectual pussy stance in life. you’re the reason that colossal, corporate bootlicking failure was washed into office two years ago on a tide of hope for acceptance within a fully corrupt political system. nice going, tats for brains.’
Hilarious that the assumptions you make about me are excactly the same that neurotic, utterly irrelevant, old man Rollins makes about those girls. Are you gonna call me ‘trust fund hipster’ next? First of all, I’m not American. Secondly, I don’t like the Obama administration.
Here’s a quote for you to chew on while you’re waiting for the revolution:
‘We’re a culture without the will to seriously examine our own problems. We eschew that which is contradictory, complex or confusing. We enjoy being provoked and titillated but resist the rigorous, painstaking examination of issues that might, in the end, bring us to the point of recognizing our own problems, which is the essential first step to solving any of them’
Get in the van, man!
Pay attention, mr Rollins: we love you the way you are. You started all this shit.
Fuckin’ Little Richard had way more balls than Rollins could ever have. Know why? he was a black in-your-face swisher travelling around by automobile during the lynchin’ fuckin’ FIFTIES, man. For all Rollin’s alleged artistry (I think it’s just yelling feebsacvkedoverloaded noise, but whatever, some like it, de gustabus non est disputandum fuccus yu us), he was derivative of earlier screechy white bellowers, so what. I like his politics, he’s like the Sarah McLaughlin or Sheryl Crow of old ex-punkers I guess.
Punk was derived from uber-fags like Bowie anyway–deal with it. Why? Because gays don’t have to rope themselves in and pretend toward false sanity–they’re not trying to convince girls that they’re procreation-worthy, so they can get way the hell out there mentally and artistically.
I probably wouldn’t have even chimed in, but that vid of Rollins picking on that poor kid is just too disgusting. If his legacy was built upon and rides on that kind of shitty physical alpha-male intimidation of quivering fans, then fuck his legacy. He should gpo be in a convent for ten years like Leonard Cohen, or sing zero-amplification children’s songs like Jonathan Richman—now THAT guy is punk.
jewish girls are the best
I know the girl who said “Get in the Van.” She’s a tough-as-shit punk who was genuinely psyched to see Rollins, and then his insecure ass took a dump all over her.
exactly.
@Chimchim
a little harder next time, baybee. ouch.
standing up to 23 year old chicks, god damn that’s punk as shit
^^actually, it is. most grown men are intimidated by pussy.
At this point, aspiring to be a punk is really not a whole lot different than aspiring to be a hippie. It was a movement that happened, ended, became co-opted, and now is being marketed. “Anarchy tee shirts…. get yer anarchy tee shirts… only $18.”
fugazi will always be better than black flag…always
To me, Cambodia and south American issues is really where it’s at, man.
@Anonymous,
Can’t say I’m surprised that you didn’t get it.
[...] Henry Rollins vs hipsters [...]
“the lynchin’ fuckin’ FIFTIES, man.”
There were a grand total of four lynchings of American blacks recorded in the fifties, MAN. More American blacks kill each other on an average morning these days, MAN.
We won’t rebut the last comment, we’ll just leave your baboonlike word-form hang there for all to see…
It’s lovely watching punks and hardcore guys age. They’re finally realizing they were completely irrelevant and there was no reason to try so hard to be “relevant” in the first place. You sang songs and jumped around.
Relax , get some sun, listen to Laura marling with your girlfriend and stop being an arsehole. What beef said. you sad boys.
Wipers “Youth of America” in the background. At least they’re not listening to shit.
I met Henry once. He is a cunt.
punks. hipsters. all had their time and gone. they’re angry at being irrelevant. political activism/artist inspired revolution = outdated ancient tools.
the current wave of edge/resistance/relevance – computer geeks. those that control the internets will win. get on the bus or get run over.
