Rollins Spoken Word 9/18 in Ames

Post by Walking Thunder » Mon Sep 15, 2008 9:55 pm

Yet again I am asking for another ride.

Is anyone from the Iowa City area carpooling to this? I'll drive myself if I have to, but I'd rather throw down some gas money and share a ride. I was wanting to to get back to Iowa City that night, but I might have to make some sacrifices.

Last time I saw him was at the Val Air it was horrible, and lasted way too long. Let me sum it up for you...."Ahhh, I'm Henry Rollins and I've been to Japan, China, Iran, India blah blaah and I'm sooo wild and fearless" The first 2min. was hilarious the rest garbage. I think I've seen him 3times.

If it was my show or you had a vagina and big tits, I'd say yes. I'll have to check and see if we get to have a guest list.

i had to leave early because of a closing shift at bpe, but, the first hour or so was pretty good.

some things were annoying though. first, how many airport anecdotes can you have? second, sure traveling is great and we know that you get to go all over the place because you're a pseudo-celeb, but not everyone can afford to do that--so don't talk like we're all sheltered and lack culture because we haven't been to syria.

"my thought is, knowledge without mileage = bullshit".

actually, knowledge without mileage probably = i'm poor and have to pay rent and why won't somebody pay me lots and lots of money to speak about the banal details of my life?

the cat stevens bit was really funny.

Maybe look at it this way, if you had the money would you travel like he does? His documentaries he talked about sound interesting.
