Rollins about Trump/MAGA junk Ted Nugent.
“My Nugent records are kind of like my guilty pleasures. I can defend his guitar playing on any battlefield. Then you hear the stuff he says and then you’re like: Ahhh! I just ruins my day. I can’t do it.”
Just go away, macho.

Gabriel was born on 13 February 1950 in Surrey, England. Happy 74 to original
lead singer of the prog rock icons Genesis whose eccentric face/voice he was
from 1967-1975. In his still ongoing solo career he only released 10 albums. But
he composed several film soundtracks and he worked with multiple other artists.
His 10th LP named i/o came out last December.
But I’ll go for his huge 1986 hit Sledgehammer to celebrate his birthday.

Hooky (his nickname) was born on 13 February 1956. Happy 68 to the legendary bassist
of iconic bands Joy Division and New Order, playing songs from both bands for years now with his own project Peter Hook & The Light. One of the greatest four-string musicians ever.
Live in Mexico City.
Henry Rollins was born named Henry Lawrence Garfield on 13 February 1961 in
Washington, D.C. Happy 63 to charismatic singer/musician who made his name
first with punk turbo Black Flag (1976–1986), and continued with his own Rollins Band. Over the years he became a spoken word artist, actor, comedian, writer and TV presenter.
With his Rollins Band.
