I've lurked around for longer than I care to admit but with the first year anniversary coming up I figured this is a good time to get posting and the AMA threads seem a really cool way to introduce myself, so Halforums ask me anything!
Not sure, I just thought it was about time I gave something back to the community which has entertained me so much for three or four years.
When it's miserable weather-wise (It often is, I live in England) I'm normally playing a game, currently working my way through Torchlight and Dragon Age or I'm at my local games store playing Dungeons & Dragons, Magic: The Gathering or Hordes & Warmachine.

Well I have been a fan of Black Flag since I was a kid and then I moved on to his spoken word stuff as a teenager, then when I turned 21 I received the book "Get in the van: On the road with Black Flag" which a journal he kept since he joined Black Flag up until the band split.
That was what really turned him into one of my heroes. He gave it everything, didn't take any crap from fan or foe and even though he tried and tried they never made it big, even in punk circles at the time but now a lot of modern punk and hardcore has a ton to thank them for.
His personal thoughts have helped shaped my own, especially his views on racism and sexual equality. Sorry, didn't mean to turn that into a mini essay.

I find it very funny personally and I bought Has Been for that track alone.

Do you chant "I get so tired of all the drama, I get so tired of all the drama" while reading some of the threads here?
Not really. Don't get me wrong I abhor drama but I understand when you have lots of people with opposing view points it is bound to happen. Ignore it and it goes away.

Kitty Sinatra
huh. So do you listen to Rollins Band stuff?
"I get so tired of all the drama, I get so tired of all the drama" is a line from a spoken word thing set to music on his album Get Some Go Again.

Heh, I will concede I think the last time I listened to a whole Rollins Band album was about a week or so ago and that was "Nice". I do also have a terrible memory.
Edit:
How do you feel about Rollins being in Sons of Anarchy?
I liked SoA before Rollins became involved. I'm not saying why in fear of spoilers.

Oh. Johnny Mnemonic. Would you have done that?
#22
Voidmuse
No.
I maybe biased because I loved the short stories but hated the film.

Kitty Sinatra
So what else has HR done that you won't?

I'd say most of his IMDB entry is a guide in how not to do a film career. I do not think the guy is without fault, I'd say he's turned in to a bit of a hypocrite now. I enjoy the music, writing and spoken word stuff and that's about it.

Mind you, Johnny Mnemonic was a sensible choice: Keanu Reeves was a rising star, and William Gibson was a big name scif-fi guy.

Also, just looked him up on IMDB. I did not realize he'd done that much TV and film.
