Bad Brains FTW. i would kill several dozen people to go see them.

[the glue man]

I saw them a couple weeks ago. IT was alright. HR's old age makes him not move at all on stage, total opposite of what he use to be.

And I don't think most people will pay 25 dollars to see them. That's BS

Old Bad Brains-good. Old H.R.-not so much *cues Borat*

[ChordMonger]

H.R. in general is a homophobic misanthrope, so i guess it comes with the territory
