Henry Rollins bold reflections of his view of the world around him hit you like acid on a raw nerve. His writings are a release and recollection of his thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I felt shocked, happy, sad, angry, and awed. The stories he relates open you up like a wound. I feel like a junkie, hanging on his last word, waiting...waiting for that taste of the next thought or idea. Henry Rollins doesn't just serve up the reality of the world we live in...he smashes your head into it...again...and again...and again...leaving you begging for more. This is some of the most thought provoking writing in the modern age. Get in the Van is full of journal entries from Rollin's time on tour with Black Flag, one of the most influential and relevant bands in hardcore punk. More than just a diary, this compilation of journals allows you to see, feel, hear and smell the world of punk rock the way Rollins himself experienced it. He makes you feel like you were there...in his shoes. If you really want to feel it, get the Audio Book...Rollins reads it and lends it a personal feel that is unmatched in anything I have ever heard.Read full review

This is a chronicle of days gone by when touring in a punk band was dangerous. Amazing book by Mr. Rollins. Once you start, you wont be able to put it down.
