Dude's an audiophile. "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn. C'mon y'all." | |

He can be intimidating if you ever get to meet him - with the tattoos and being built - but a complete music geek.
I asked him what he had lined up, and proceeded to give me a 10 minute itinerary, and this was after he did one of his 3 hour "spoken word" shows, completely spent. Then he signed my "Get In The Van" audiobook.
He's on KCRW (in LA) every Saturday night, but check the time it's on, because it's webcasted and podcasted.

I see him in Hollywood a lot. Very cool guy! and huge fan of Black Flag/Rollins Band Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

Never been moved much either way by his music, but I've always dug this guy. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

What's cool about him is that he makes money without having to play the game. He can do what he likes but he makes good money. I admire that. Most of that would want that life. All you others say Hell Yea!! | |

Beat me to it. First thing I thought of when I read the title....
My Bob Ludwig–mastered pressing of Led Zeppelin's Houses of the Holy is kind of average but I was never crazy about the sonics of HOTH to begin with.
Ludwig's LZ II is the holy grail (still looking as is everyone else I suppose, scarce) I don't even spin my Mofi LZ II much because all I think about is that it's not the Ludwig version... My wife? She's my keel, and I'm her pesky boulder in shallow water... http://kideuphrates.wordpress.com/ | |

I was very surprised by how short and little he actually is because of how big and muscular he comes across on videos. I just saw him here in Ann Arbor hosting an Iggy Pop concert. I was surprised to find out Iggy Pop was from Ann Arbor. My art book: http://www.lulu.com/spotl...ecomicskid

Rollins looked like he was around 5 foot 7.
Danzig's really short though. He might be Prince's height...

Was walking behind Henry Rollins at a record convention looking for Prince boot (me not him ), he was right in front of me, and I'm only 5'6" and he seemed the same height! I was just so surprised because of his larger then life shouting image on video (like that one where he's painted red). He seemed like a little guy that worked out a hell of a lot. He just happened to be going in front of me to the same stands, where different dealers were all saying hi to him. This was in 1994 I think. My art book: http://www.lulu.com/spotl...ecomicskid

When someone says "short", I consider that around 5 foot 4 and under. They always talk about Tom Cruise being short, but he winds up with girls taller than him. But it's funny because there's pics where he's taller and shorter than Katie.

This guy is great. He searches for truth with great passion, courage and virility. We could all learn a tremendous amount from that example. And most importantly, he doesn't seem to take himself too seriously. As he states himself, he wants to be remembered for swinging hard and hopefully hitting a few. And being an audiophile is obviously a great passion that can contribute to educating us all. But all of us tend to get way too evangelical. Many know what they're missing. But as he said himself, life is short. There is neither the time -- and in most cases, money-- to pursue everything of value. And it would be a fucking travesty if we all had the same priorities. | |

Long time ago, but what a git he is here picking on an intimidated little kid.
