Henry Rollins meets the Kiss Army

[@violetbrown2372]

Henry is filled with so many great stories.

[@jonnyriggs4372]

I think part of it is how he tells the stories

[@pardyhardly]

There's something else that he's full of.

[@matthewlogan4267]

​@@jonnyriggs4372 exactly you could sell a wet fart as an exiting story if you tell it right

[@matthewlogan4267]

​@@pardyhardly yeah shit

[@ToruKun1]

I LIVE for Henry Rollins' Paul impression, that was hilarious

[@CailenCambeul]

I thought Brian Johnson had entered.

[@MichaelGriffey6969]

Hahaha! It reminds me of Dr. Rockso 🤣

[@Phard11]

This was absolutely hilarious! I'm a huge KISS fan and couldn't stop laughing....it's pretty damn accurate.

[@oneskinnyhonky]

Pretty much everyone has walked through a dirt parking lot for a show at some point, Kiss concert or not, and his description of what it looks like is dead-on.

[@dennisperin2989]

Been an Army member since 78’ never be anything like them again! To be concealed by night, & walk amongst us by day in total obscurity is the greatest Rock magic show of all time, Pre Internet, they were able to hide all the family photo’s of themselves to the mags, nobody knew what they looked like with makeup off? Genus! As a 13-14 yr old kid Ace was the guy i wanted to be, everybody tellin me how cool Page was playing guitar, but the firsr time i saw Ace play in that Spaceman outfit on those 7” platform boots i was completely in! He prob isn’t the greatest thing since slice bread or anything but the way he played it made you want a triple pickup Gibson LP! ( No fanboy or nothing) lol…

[@oneskinnyhonky]

12:44 I love his rambling descriptions of people & things, then he throws in gold like: "I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just trying to accurately depict what I saw on this evening."

[@triciabrown3035]

I am not a kiss fan, but I do appreciate the fact that they give their fans a whole lot of bang for their buck! also their fans obsessive attention to various detail

[@evanabbott2737]

"The kind of look children of incest have" hahahahahaha

[@emmaduncan2991]

I have never been a fan of kiss, but I do appreciate their fans obsessive attention to detail, their ability to rank records from best to worse, worst to best, always on the lookout for that rare Japanese pressing, that was mixed when the producer was hung over.

[@Drgonzosfaves]

Those coveted Japanese pressings, no matter the album... ❤️

[@Drgonzosfaves]

Those coveted Japanese pressings, no matter the album... ❤️

[@PinkyJujubean]

I'm a kiss fan who's a tad obsessive but some of these people are a bit over the top with it. I love it

[@THECLARENCES]

Awesome! Love that Henry gives Kiss props!

[@kanepewdiepie1720]

As I'm sitting here drinking out of my kiss army coffee mug

[@ericthompson3982]

Was in Major Goulsby's in Milwaukee after a long day at GenCon in the Mid-90s when a Kiss concert let out and poured into the restaurant. It was a thing to behold. Like just unreal. I was in high school. The waitress bought me a beer just for putting up with it.

[@philstone3859]

This is one of his best stories!

[@poppapiltch5601]

Saw this live in Toronto with my parents, late 90s

[@matthewlogan4267]

My man steady beatin dem cheeks in the back of the stage 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@THECLARENCES]

The Clarences love & support "Music From The Elder"! It's our fave Kiss album!

[@fuzzballzz36]

"The rest of your life down in San Ber'dino!"

[@scotttrent4721]

seacow1970 “...I really am.”

[@angelocrossbones9816]

The elder hahaha. Fuck yeah.

[@Daveyboy10053]

I've never seen Kiss before live. Now after listening to this, I feel I must!!!

[@darrenhunt9049]

I've been a member of 3 different Armies. 1st as a Junior Soldier in the Salvation Army until I was kicked out for wearing KISS T shirts and refusing to stop wearing and headbanging to my KISS records so I paid my minimal amount of money to be in the KISS ARMY. Australian Army was 1989.

[@Slimsonny12345678]

I feel like half the people commenting on how Henry is an asshole didn't listen to the whole thing

[@evanabbott2737]

That is ALWAYS the case when it comes to Henry Rollins for some reason....it's like those people have been told by someone else that Henry is an asshole or whatever so they just go with it. I guess they can't make up their own mind....typical bullshit. Henry is the fucking man and they don't want to hear it.😃😃😃😃😃

[@xgymratx]

i met him twice.....even tried being nice to him....he IS an asshole and im only 20 seconds into this

[@jonesey251]

Henry would agree with his big toothy smile "Yes, I am an asshole, thank you for noticing."

[@courtneyross7879]

Rollins is clearly a KISS fan.Stand down, KISS Army!😂

[@fivestring65ify]

Love his description of Nugent. Are you here too see Kiss??? LMAO.

[@Pamplemousse82322]

Henry nails it, as usual lol

[@heikkijhautanen4576]

Love Henry and Kiss :D

[@fivestring65ify]

I love this shit. Absolutely hilarious. And so true.

[@ladyhonor822]

I completely understand. 🙏🇺🇲❤️☦️💋 Philadelphia USA

[@matthewlogan4267]

Philly born and raised ✊️✊️💯💯

[@MrDukeblue]

I reckon Henry would beat Uncle Ted in a fair fight without weapons.

[@coronapapi]

It's hilarious to see a few hundred overheated people steaming in the night after a show.

[@philstone3859]

If you even just kinda like their music and If you make the effort to go to one of their concerts, your, it’s ok opinion will change dramatically. They are world famous for their live shows for decades for a reason. I dare you to not have a good time! They are one of the Classic American party bands. They were the first to go really big with it. No one even came close to them. A reputation that they maintained for an incredibly long, long time.

[@michaelabbazia428]

Fuckin classic

[@philstone3859]

Say what you want about KISS, if you see them live, you will get your money’s worth. If anything else they are total pro’s and more than deliver an unforgettable concert. Underestimate them at your peril. Saw em 6 times!

[@cryptsub]

"Paul's love"

[@oneskinnyhonky]

It's easy to picture Paul preening & pouting during his stage raps then pointing out Hank & telling him, "I love yo-o-o-ou!"

[@evanabbott2737]

Fucking awesome.😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@diekrahe.]

What the fuck is that tapping the whole way through?

[@chadlong1109]

I wonder if Henry is laying it on pretty thick here to distract from the fact that the overlap between his fans and KISS fans is massive.

[@Hitithardify]

A lot of it is for simply entertainment value for sure. Kiss is a pretty well known band, some of the people who like Kiss are gonna like Henry too.

[@scottwheeler8843]

This is great!

[@76sagi]

Awesome.

[@gonufc]

I can't flippin' stand KISS but this was brilliant.

[@viking_nor]

@ukiah12 kiss sucks

[@assman6574]

without being able to see all of the physical humor, its still a good show. I bet at least 3 minutes of this is unintelligible growling.

[@klistarf]

I like Henry. He makes me laugh! I'd love to stand at a bar and share a drink (alcoholic, or otherwise) with the man... \m/ (:o)

[@skawashers]

i saw pictures of KISS before i heard them..Played The pinball machine while on holiday in the 70s - 80s , I thought these guys must play some savage sounding rock..Then i heard them and the music didn't match the image .

[@jasonbennett60]

skawashers Exactly my experience! 😂 I saw the cover for Destroyer and thought “whoa this band is evil” and then I listened to it and was like WTF

[@fivestring65ify]

You got that right. Cartoon characters.

[@jonesey251]

they're also 1000 times better live...or they used to be at least

[@DinosaurSatan]

Alice wore the whole makeup/blood/shock rock thing a lot better.

[@wobdarden]

It's not black metal, it came from the 70s! I think Deep Purple was the heaviest thing around by that time.

[@OceanbornAngel]

As a pretty average, typical female I've never really gotten into KISS all that much. I've always been aware of them but they just aren't all that huge in my life compared to the KISS Army. My Rock predilections were and still are artists like Heart, Pat Benatar, Lita Ford, etc. I'm still trying to figure out this KISS army thing and the whole religious aspect of it all. I recall in the 70's because of the makeup and the flashy costumes that the band was like some otherworldly entity to me, but to a four year old everything is magical but my interests were never centralized around KISS. Even in my teens I still didn't see them as very important in my life compared to the female rockers I listened to. Even as a middle aged adult I am still trying to understand this whole fanatical KISS thing and why people are so obsessed with it. I don't look at the stage show as a whole to persuade me to like a band when it comes to my musical preferences, I just listen to the music itself. Yeah, I really love Heart but I don't go nuts over their music to the point of becoming a public embarrassment with my enthusiasm. I just don;t really get the whole KISS Army thing. To me KISS is just another durable Rock act that still has the financial capability to tour, like Heart. Maybe it's just that KISS' music doesn't speak to me personally, I just can't relate to their collection of hits at all like I can with the music of Heart or Pat Benatar. That said I think I'd find it amusing to be at a KISS concert and probably be the only person not getting into the hype and looking rather lost as the fan camera swings around towards me being all confused and confuddled by my surroundings like I don't really belong there.

[@fivestring65ify]

MonsterHunterRoon It's all hype with no substance. They put on a good show but let's be honest. How big would they be if they didn't wear the makeup? They tried it in the 80s and failed miserably. Then Stanley comes out with a tell all book stating what the average intelligent person already knew. Kiss is like televangilists. They talk a good talk but can't back it up.

[@courtneyross7879]

Well don't torture yourself over it. It's just music. Either you like it, or you don't, like any other band, singer, musician, etc. out their, vying for your loyalty...and money. All good, either way.

[@sixstringb71]

This was great!!! Lol

[@skateslam2719]

why does it sound like someones fuckin' beating it through most of the video?

[@oneskinnyhonky]

They must really love Kiss

[@carvinblack]

Beth has always been performed with a backing track.

[@diekrahe.]

I saw them two days ago, the drummer played a piano.

[@supermantra3437]

@@diekrahe. he can't play piano. It was faked

[@MichaelHansenFUN]

BETH has allways been sung to a tape WATCH THE TOM SNYDER INTERVIEW

[@ultralance]

KISS was my introduction to music. Never been huge into punk but like some, thought I hated Black Flag but loved Rollins comedy. Turns out I only hate their first album with Rollins singing... all the albums after that are freaking out there. Felt the same way when as Henry realizing KISS is awesome when I finally heard Armageddon Man and The Priocess of Weeding Out. lmfao

[@smackythefrog23]

Talk is Cheap Volume 1 or 2....

[@henryd5078]

I like Kiss , but I don't match up with your vision of the KISS Army people , I mostly ignore them.

[@mjgutzmann1681]

It wasn't the vision on Kiss Army people, per se. But the vision of rock fans in San Bernardino; dead on.

[@Estragon17]

There is no quasi about Ted's racism.

[@michaelmccarthy4615]

San Bernadino had some serious riots during the BLM protests

[@needleskane9780]

Oh yeah, and he stole the middle of this bit from South Park. FRRRRRRRRRRRUKNIS

Ugh, the scratchy noise from the obviously damaged CD this was ripped from makes it unlistenable. Dislike.

[@WomackPhotoKCMO]

Henry is exactly what is wrong with America.....liberalism.

[@gonufc]

Sorry, but your entire nation was founded on that tenet! Have you read your constitution? Freedom of speech/ religion/ Right to a trial etc. .... Are you saying you're a proud Illiberal?

[@emmaduncan2991]

actually what's wrong with America, is grown men, who like to pretend that their fan base of 12 year old's is an "Army"

[@sabbathjackal]

emma duncan the "army" was created by the fans not the band. the band merely embraced it

[@nukeninmgt1504]

WomackPhotoKCMO I'm usually the last person to say this, but if you legitimately don't agree with what liberalism really is then leave our country. If you disagree with liberals then please stay, because a differing opinion is always necessary for a good discussion to occur. Just maybe Google a word before you say that it's what's wrong with America.

[@antthomas7916]

If you don't like it, leave.

[@matthewlogan4267]

Henry always a fraud when he be telling his story's 😂😂🤣🤣
