I agree that Flag were better vocally before Rollins, but Damaged is still one of the gnarliest records ever recorded. There's also no denying that
Rollins as a vocalist was still better than 99.999999999999999999999% of the turds pouting into a microphone these days.
This isn't a defense of Rollins' tall stories but those must have been HARD times touring on the Damaged and My War albums. America was not ready to
have those freaks invade their hometowns and they did it anyway.
Seeing the Rollins band perform 'Gun In Mouth Blues' live in Philly is almost, but not quite enough, to erase the Gap commercials, the overblown
stories, and the MTV appearances. Almost.

ill say this much
i went and say rollins and keith morris do the black flag thing a few years ago for that west memphis 3 thing
it was UNREAL
im serious
it could not have been better
then, a few months later, ginn claims he is having a one time black flag reunion in L.A.
hyped it up, the whole 9 yards
who did it end up being?
ginn and robo
fuck greg ginn
henry was right about him all those years
yes henry did lame shit and still does im sure
i saw the rollins band for the first time in 1988 at city gardens
to this day its still one of the best shows i ever saw
its easy to come down on henry and i know he deserves most of it
BUT damaged and my war rule
and if ya think he had all that much to do with the direction flag took, you are wrong
ginn was calling all shots
you come at the king....you best not miss

Yeah, I know Ginn was really the one behind the direction Black Flag went in,
but the combo of his music shit and Rollins attitude (like I said before) is what makes me leave Black Flag off any and all top band lists. They
really shoulda just packed it in when Rollins joined or maybe just afterwards.
