Rollins does some good spoken word, though I have been listening to Jello Biafra's stuff lately.

I love jello biafra

and mojo nixon.

Biafra's spoken word stuff is good. Cracks me up how crazy goes during his rants. His newer stuff is next on my listening list once I get thru this shitload of Rollins albums.

I used to dig the "First Four Years" era the most but now I think the shit with Rollins is infinitely better and more interesting. My War and Slip It In really cement why BF are my favorite band. Rollins does rub people up the wrong way and a few years back I was really over him and thought he was totally self indulgent. Maybe now that I'm old and bitter I can relate to him more :p
I prefer the live stuff to his poetry because it's fucking funny and he has some good shit to say.

Got back into Rollins Band lately too. Weight was one of my favorite albums in high school and it still rips.

got to overhear him before a show in VABCH bitch out some chick and I walked past him after the show, smiled at him and he smiled back and ALMOST touched shoulders...ooo...shiver.
and got to hear about my friends running into him at a beach bar that night and how he was such an asshole to everyone.:cool:

I love Rollins

I have all his poetry books, most of it is very heavy shit, so completely different than what his does in spoken word shows

I think its pretty funny, though they say that in their second interview with him that he was a lot nicer.

Its weird, because I hear stories where he is a giant asshole and other stories where he is really nice and shit.

guess he's bipolar or some shit.

That's a bit extreme. Peple can display a number of different emotional states and behave in different ways without having some mental imbalance.
