Have you ever read "Get in the Van"? It recounts Rollins' involvement while touring with Black Flag. It's page after page of "I hate this and I hate that", bile flooding out and all over the book. So much so, it would actually put me into an angry mood just reading it. In hind sight, I wouldn't put too much stock in all the things Hank said that he hated, because at the time, he pretty much disliked everybody and everything. Hopefully, he's a little more balanced these days.
