Black Flag Reunites?

LOS ANGELES (Henry Rollins Fans Website) - Henry Rollins has sent word out to Keith Morris and Chuck Dukowski to help him perform the songs of their former group, Black Flag, at an in-store appearance at Hollywood's Amoeba Music on Dec. 3.
"I've got no confirmation on their involvement," Rollins says. "Keith's on tour with the Circle Jerks, and I wrote a letter to Chuck last night and haven't heard back from him. But if they show up to sing, great."

The concert promotes Rise Above, a new benefit CD for the Free the West Memphis 3 Defense Fund, on which Morris and Dukowski perform alongside Rollins, Iggy Pop, Slipknot's Corey Taylor, and others.

In the past year, Rollins has immersed himself in the case of Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin, and Jessie Misskelley, who, as teens in 1994, were convicted of a triple homicide, largely based on the stereotypes their rural Arkansas natives held against their music and lifestyle.
"When you can put someone in prison for having a Stephen King novel and a black Pink Floyd T-shirt in America, someone's got to look into that," Rollins says.

Although Rollins enjoys performing the songs of Black Flag, he isn't interested in reheating the whole souffl�. He says he last spoke to group founder Greg Ginn in 1989.
"If there's a reunion type thing, I wouldn't go," says Rollins. "It wouldn't be very good. So why go backwards, unless it's just for money?
And if you need money, go get a real job."
