I get that Rollins has to get R Lee Ermey on his ass sometimes to get himself thru the day but his comments were still insensitive

Henry spent a lot of time in The Shed

feel like we're at peak thinkpiece-economy, at some point general exhaustion has to settle in, no?

weird teen on ritalin gets told to toughen up by well-meaning teacher

The podcast has been pretty fun so far, kind of a throw back to his earlier talking records (Sweatbox, Human Butt, etc)

how so

Yeah, I guess you summed it up. But it was also a little creepy and off in that Rollins way (and I like Henry, he's just weird)

maybe/whatever/so what/boring (admrl), Wednesday, 10 June 2015 15:36 (eight years ago) link

I didn't think it was creepy at all.

Assuming all of Henry's targeted social media ads are for black or grey t-shirts

chr1sb3singer, Monday, 8 April 2019 13:04 (five years ago) link

I’m always ready to lol at Rollins but I gotta admit a lot of those are pretty nice looking shelves tbf

One Eye Open, Monday, 8 April 2019 13:29 (five years ago) link

I was thinking to myself, I'd love to have a big room just so I could put a bunch of shelves up for my stuff. It would be cool to have it all laid out like that.

earlnash, Monday, 8 April 2019 16:26 (five years ago) link

tbf, musician/spoken word/author/collector guy is exactly who I would expect to be hanging around shelves all the time. Next thing you know, they'll have a photo essay of librarians posing with books.

Turned on KCRW Sunday night while working and happened to hear his show. Henry’s gonna Henry as a talker, but with the music there was lots of good rare interesting stuff.

he should post to ilm with all the CDs he's hoarding

eleven months pass...

Seems to be streaming audio, no podcast option, unless I have too many plug-in blockers (but I ctrl+f'd the source code for the page)

I like to think of him looking for his Buggles test-pressing ($17 on Ebay) in that photograph.

The Impulse! section needs some work, Henry. Man, that's a tidy collection.

Vanishing Point (Chinaski), Tuesday, 7 April 2020 19:58 (four years ago) link

This could potentially make a thread but which musicians/commentators have their own personal version of Godwin's law, ie:

Rollins mentioning his quite good friends with Ian MacKaye
Don Letts mentioning he worked with the Clash

?

Donovan: Beatles/Zep
