  • Henry Rollins answering a few questions I asked about The Misfits and Chuck Biscuits at The Park Theatre in Holland, MI October 19, 2023 on the Good To See You Tour.
    0:00 You're featured on the live version of "We Are 138". How did that happen?
    4:20 How did you get on the recording of "We Bite"?
    7:42 Do you have any Chuck Biscuits stories?
    10:52 Do you know what Chuck Biscuits is up to now?

    Thank you to whoever asked him about the Misfits and Chuck Biscuits. Two very amazing subjects! Seen Hank 4 times and only had the privilege of hearing him talk about the Misfits once. Never heard him talk about Chuck before, and I wish I could sit around all day and listen to stories about him.

      I asked him about The Misfits and Chuck Biscuits. I was curious if he knew what Chuck is up to because of the fake story in 2009 about his death and rumors that he's working for Costco now.

    I asked Eerie Von about Chuck a few months back, here is Eeries response:-
    Hey Neil, just got your message. It was in a Spam folder. Chuck retired from the business, and is working a straight 9-5 job. I hear from him once in a while, but I suspect he doesn't have much use in his Life for his old band mates. Take care. All the Best.

      Earl Liberty was talking about Chuck in My Career as a Jerk about Chuck had a take it or leave it attitude about being in bands and the music scene in general. I wish Chuck never left. He's one of the GOATs. Some of the Circle Jerks performances when he and Earl were in the lineup were insane.

    I've never really listened to Black Flag, but I love the Misfits and Danzig and I agree, Chuck Biscuits was on another level as a drummer. I was disappointed when I was 18 and finally got to see Danzig when he was promoting his 4th album and Chuck had already been fired.

      First tour 88-89 small venue (teeny tiny actually) Was also 18 at the time. It was phenomenal!!!
      The stage was just about knee high and I was about 5 or 6 feet from the band. Chuck was great, stood the whole show of course.

      @@richardrobbins387 I used to wonder if he stood during live shows. When they would show him in some of the old Danzig videos he would usually be standing. It seems so unnecessarily awkward to play that way. lol

      ​@@Tom_Van_Zandt I get it tho. Worked in factories for almost 30 yrs. Most of that time I stood. When I earned team leader I asked for a standing desk too. I hated sitting at work. Standing gave me more control over my machines and production. And I had to do a lot of running around helping others and jumping in and out of forklifts and such. But I gotta say I'm paying now. I had to have surgery on my feet and my back and knees and arms are always hurting. It's best to alternate because sitting is REALLY bad for your insides. Had to learn the hard way. I never listened to much Black Flag. Henry could really be unhinged lol. My fave is Danzig the band. First 4 albums. I wish I could go see them, but I also wish it could be the OG lineup too. Nothing like Glenn and Eerie and John and Chuck. Have a good one!🤘🏼🖤☠️🏴

    Doyle (Paul) and Jerry Caifas Dad owned a machine shop where the boys worked when not touring. As a matter of fact theres quite a few guitars Doyle has that he made himself out of graphite. So it isnt a surprise that the Caifas opened their home up to Black Flag.

    Chuck Biscuits comes from a talented family.
    His brother Dimwit also played for DOA. He preceded Chuck in another band with Joey Shithead.
    Dimwit also saw a great feature as drummer in a band The Four Horsemen. Then tragically died from overdose a few years later.
    Charles and Ken Montgomery were/are great drummers.

      Doyle was in high school. So they only toured in the summer and did one off shows on weekends. Also, I don't consider the Misfits to have ever congealed as a band which is why Glenn moved on.

But you said you didn't want zine publishers coming up to you and you hated dudes with goatees. Since I fit your description I left without talking to you.

    Can someone ask him why he sold the Rollins band mailing list to Marlboro in the early '90s? I received mail from them and his publishing company for several years after signing his mailing list on tour. After a while that mail stopped coming but Marlboro ads and swag replaced it. How do I know it was him? Besides the fact that it's his name and birth date, my handwriting must have been sloppy at the show so they mailed to a name that wasn't mine exactly and the only other mail I've ever gotten to that name was from Marlboro. What a sellout..
