Nick Cave does "Deanna" with Henry Rollins and Jello Biafra [live]

[StaticTremor]

As Rollins said later, more fun to do than to listen to..

[uktransplantedyank]

They should've played this song on Star Trek: The Next Generation every time Counselor Troi came onto the screen! LOL

[msjjjett]

The pole was in front of Nick's head for the majority of the song from the angle. damn you pole!

[biddyboosh]

fabulous! wish i was there :)

[KurtMcGowan]

Well Jello's clearly having a good time despite not knowing the song! x

[telegramsam]

Rollins looks so uncomfortable there.

OH SURPRISE, YOU'RE PERFORMING ON STAGE TONIGHT!

Oh dear. XD

[reconelement]

Haha Rollins looks like I picture he would look as a teenager singing in a school play.

[BibleStorm]

@reconelement He doesn't look comfortable on stage with his shirt on and his mic in its stand.

[Lieu3C4]

To singe or niot to singe that is .. er ..

[hipppriest]

Hmmm more Jello than Biafra these days . . .

[bckm54]

@hipppriest  hahaha... love that comment! :) someone once said that the reason you don't see jello biafra and the dead kennedys on stage together any more is that jello ate the other dead kennedys... :)

[moldycarrots]

Haha, what a strange group of people

[muddack]

fuckin nuts!! love it!!

[WISEBL00D]

Jello rockin out stage right, Hank looks like a schoolboy jumping around awestruck.

[FatherLucho]

Something about the thought of Nick Cave basically fucking with Henry Rollins and Jello Biafra is too funny.

[inglesidecatamaran]

Jello: "I don't know the song!" Henry: "Just say 'Deanna, oh Deanna' and then stand behind something solid because the bottles are going to fly."

[tommyt1971]

@inglesidecatamaran Yup, from Provoked.

[drbrandovalentine]

3 of the baddest dudes in music!

[theoriginaljeffro]

@drbrandovalentine NO NO NO... it's more like SIX.

[ANBUblackops666]

XD look at Jello Rocking out! I love that bastard

[brightmanonfire]

bloody awful.

[fourperson]

Rollins looks so cute just standing there awkwardly, you know he's having an orgasm

[bloodybirdbrain]

three amazing frontmans :D

[redbirdsescape]

so bad yet so good.

[hristos76]

[mivoiosi]

lol,,love it,,,just saw henry talking about it too funny so i had to see it for myself,,,love it

[KangLeRoy]

Jello and Hank?!! Nick Cave is fuckin David Bowie. WICKED ASS! Funny, this song is now an "anthem." At the time, truly one of their better ones.

[KangLeRoy]

Jello and Hank?!! Nick Cave is fuckin David Bowie. WICKED ASS!

[buokopter]

I don't know the soooong

[VicRattlehead79]

@buokopter

LOL.. good ol Jello

[Zorsha]

[TheAppletaffy]

Henry...your psychotic!

[Kidney76]

Priceless!!!!!!!!!!!

:)))))

[juiceterry67]

Classic

[straightedge442]

Where's Jello?

[cinephilefromhell]

@straightedge442 i think he's the one behind the bassist. lol

[straightedge442]

@cinephilefromhell Haha the one that looks like he doesn't know what the hell he is doing.

[LeLimeLine]

Love Henry and Jello, but Nick Cave bores the hell out of me. My best friend is big into him, I can't help but find him infuriatingly stale.

[Violetmornings]

@LeLimeLine read his books. Nick Cave is an excellent writer!

[coopersrabbit]

how unbelievably awesome is this?! oh thank you for posting this! all it needs is Hunter S. Thompson (alive preferrably) to make it the ultimate in guardo camino glory!

[USA300allstars]

Gawd this is awful.  Makes you think.

[bigfins64]

hilarious to see hank looking like a fanboy :)

[jek21]

awesome!  Henry talked about this when I saw him live.

[donkeypoopoo]

I was actually at this show at Slims in SF.  I saw the show the night before at the Great American Music Hall and sat behind Rollins. I said "hello" to him so wasn't surprised in the least when I saw him the second night and get on stage. I really don't remember Jello though.

[MrWer1138]

hahahahahaha I would have given my left nut to be there!

[Stampit88]

"I don't know the song"

[MsGeek703]

This is your freaking history, punk rockers!!! Henry Freakin Rollins, Jello Freakin Biafra and Nick Freakin' Cave!!!! Show some respect!

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

cant make out jello...

[ultamatebeatlefan]

@TEMPmichaelhansen

Far right

[willabema]

Jello is really into it! Hilarious!

[buildgod93]

@willabema Yeah, despite not knowing the song, Jello got really into it.

[Xmariah11X]

jesus I can't breathe I'm laughing so damn hard...

[chrisdrage1]

HAHAHA, henry and jello trying to look happy

[NoelOphelia]

Henry talks about this in one of his books.

[glimt1916]

Do you remember the name of it?

[niennagalathil]

He talks about this in 'A Preferred Blur'..i think. he talked about it on one of his tours too.

[christkicker]

This looks like so much fun.. Awesome of these guys to do this. Wish I was at this show!!

[Khrystene]

Oh my goodness!

[WarWolves828]

This is awesome. Rollins and Jello look like they're havin' a ball. ^_^

[mrbobdob1]

Haha Best 3 Frontmen Even.

[ukdk123]

What a threesome!

[samthomasmusic]

An obstinate Henry and a dancing Biafra

[ManFromMelbourne]

One Aussie legend and 2 American legends on the one stage.

[lowbattcaballo]

haha this is great, im a big fan of henry and nick. never expected to see them together

[JimmyMayorga]

Nick Cave and Henry Rollins have been friends since the 80's ;)

[lowbattcaballo]

amazing how did they get together?

[drgdrf]

Learn lyrics fag

[Grantly46]

Poor Nick got stuck behind the pole! There's always a pole, damn poles.

[guitarnoob16]

pretty cool. nick and henry go way back

[caelich]

Awesome!

[Humbertoamadeu]

Amazing and some bizarre... But GREAT!

Thanx for posting! Thanx!

[damnatium]

aparently hank and jello were just watching backstage and had no idea that nick was about to have them on

[StarsOut27]

hank?

his name is henry.

[damnatium]

and his nickname is hank

[Alofacetoface]

Yeah hahahaha and you can see Jello trying to sing good...because he doesn´t knew the entire lyric hahahaha PRICELESS !!!

[twoyogurtpretzels]

hahaha yeah!! jello's amazing!

[rainelionheart]

And according to Hank, Jello didn't know the lyrics, but went with it anyway. That's true rock camaraderie.

And StarsOut, Hank is a short form of Henry, which he apparently doesn't mind being called.

[lokrat2]

@damnatium That is exactly what happened.

[livemorbidia]

@damnatium henry rollins talks about it in his spoken word.

[BillHicks420]

@damnatium Yes, Henry talks about it on Provoked! He also imitates jello xD pretty funny, you cna find it on YouTube!

[isandrich]

@BillHicks420 haha...That's how I got to this vid

[chemicalwarfarex]

@damnatium there's a video where rollins explains that, he also said biafra didn't even know the words, which is clearly exhibited by his body language onstage as opposed to what he usually does :P

[hectorleon87]

@chemicalwarfarex only that bottles didnt fly

[nochu2]

awesome thing to post!!!!!! You rock!

[johnnysalami23]

this is an historical quality film. you were blessed to get it. pretty amazing.

[SwedxSimon02]

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

Jesus Christ, the audience acts like submissive apes.

[treefiddy723]

Brilliant! Henry and Jello look like giddy little boys.

[0fugly0]

That is fuckin awesome.. thank you

[lilylenoir]

I don't think it gets any better than this.. I'm sure that all the people at that gig can say "Ok, I can die now"

[GrimTrekkie]

HOLLY FUCKING SHIT!!! this is one of the coolest thing I've ever seen!! Nick, Hank and Jello on the same stage!! I just creamed my pants!!!

[BishopKnowsBest]

henry rollins and nick cave on the same stage? pinch me i'm dreaming!!!

[JimmyMayorga]

Agreed ;)

[d1vineinfekt]

It's a shame jello and rollins dont do more things togeather.

they're both hardcore punk antidrug faces.

and both insanly intelligent and have careers in spoken word.

I think they should make an album, or something, i dont know.

[n172ar]

I saw the two Grinderman San Francisco shows, but I'd forgotten about this (thankfully ;). Not my favorite Nick Cave song...

Just want to say, saw Henry leaving Nick and the Bad Seeds' 1985 show at The Palace in L.A., and asked him what he thought. He looked me in the eye and said "It was fucking right on!" while doing a slight crouch and thumbs up move. Nothing like a memorable quote! :)

[jravell]

Yeah it's so beautiful to see Henry and Jello on stage together. Has it ever happened before? Not since the early 80's, in that case.

[98611]

amazing, first time ive ever seen jello and rollins together!!! or speak of each other or anything i started to think those two didn´t even knew the other exsisted.

[AdamskiFTW]

he talked about this last night in Cardiff :)

[therealresistance]

when was this. its fucking great! I love jello and his wedding-dad dancing in the background. I love all these guys, seeing them all together is fucking class!

[DoubleIvan]

Saw Henry live in Dublin a few months back and he told the story behind this performance. He and Nick are still pretty tight. Thanks for posting, Nakoeth.

[fatmanosman]

I must admit when I first heard the new album I wasn't so sure about this whole Nick Cave with a sense of humour thing, but after seeing him live I'm totally into it. He seems totally rejuvinated! I saw an excellent comment on here somewhere that's spot on. It was something like-"it's great that Nick can look so ridiculous and be obviously feeling so good about himself!" I think the 'tache must have some magic powers. Henry is looking very sweet, it's touching!

[TheKnifeWon]

Haha. I love the adoring looks Henry and Nick share. . .Henry looks like he's going to explode with glee. Can't see (or hear!) much of Jello though. :( Aw.

[ktulu125]

LOL!

[sonicasfuck]

such a suprise huh?

great!

[bcrscabs]

That is awesome! Three of my favorites singing one of my favorite songs. That's rock n' roll heaven right there.

[buck123]

DO IT HENRY!!!!

[spazmodica2012]
