I love the Bad Brains, but I don't love that they're homophobes. Conflicting feelings.

They've kind of gone back and said that they were basically being dicks back in the day.

Doesn't mean I have to like their shitty music.

Best show I've ever seen, circa 2000

Best hardcore band ever except for Rollins era Black Flag

Even Build A Nation was actually pretty good

What they do outside of the music doesn't matter.

Take Gary Glitter. Not sure I'd open a daycare with him, but R&R part II is a gnarly fucking song.
good deals are here.
flesh couch is here.

HR once stole one of my guitars.
this one:

in fact he stole the entire truck of gear (my guitar was on loan). i got the guitar back after a short while after he got busted several states away.
now Kosta owns it...

i love bad brains. i love homos. i don't care that they don't love homos...i wish they did but oh well...such is the rasta
i like that he stole one of my guitars....of coarse i'd feel different if i hadn't gotten it back though...

A friend of mine had his ipod stolen by Donovan once. I think Donovan was just a prick as apposed to being on crack.
