You ever manage to see them? I have twice, damn near religious experiences. Although, I dont like any of their crap beyond The Quickness. If HR isnt singing, it isnt Bad Brains. I think they put him back in the mental institution. Last time I saw him, he sang the whole time holding a bird card with a fake bird in it. He would sing to it, talk to it, dance with it. the WHOLE time. First time, he had a large green gym back next to him the whole show, never touched it or looked at it. At the end of the show he picks it up, walks into the crowd, and starts passing out Bibles. He is a nutbag, but who else would have been doing hardcore rasta punk in the mid 80s? Nobody.

well to be honest i'm somewhat of a newcomer to their music. the singer in the band i'm in loves them and hes molded our sound into a lot of their stuff. but yeah i do have respect for them.
the singer said in response to what you said, "hahahahahaha. House Of Suffering is the song i said we should cover ;-) .... yeah H.R. is pretty much schizofrenic, but he refuses to take medication. so he does some weird stuff... it is actually pretty sad, to hear his life story. but underneath it all he is a really sincere, really great person.."
