Happy 62nd birthday to ultra-intense American hardcore punk icon (and tattooed muscle daddy icon!) Henry Rollins (born Henry Lawrence Garfield on 13 February 1961). Pictured here in his youthful feral Black Flag era.

On this day, May 22, in Type O Negative history:

Type O Negative play an unknown venue in Portland, OR (1994)

Type O Negative play The Thunderdome with Ozzy Osbourne and The Rollins Band in St. Petersburg, FL (1996)

Ever since that weird-looking dog bit him during a plumbing call, Kenny had been having strange dreams of wandering through the moonlit woods and ...feathers. The strange dreams seemed to stop after he stabbed his finger with a silver solder-tinned wire while replacing the pickup in his guitar. And so ended the stories of the mysterious pigeon-devouring 'Midwood Monster' that was rumored to stalk Prospect Park.

If today is your birthday, you share your special day with riff-master, lyricist, songwriter, vocalist, and resident 'Wolf Boy', Kenny Hickey! Happy Birthday to you and to Kenny!

World Goth Day

If you find yourself drinking werewolf coffee and listening to Fields whilst browsing the Lip Service site for something to wear to Whitby Goth, you might be a Goth Rocker.

If you find yourself chain-smoking clove cigarettes while waiting for moonrise, you might be a Goth Rocker.

If you find yourself wanting to go out because it's raining and blowing, but you can't go out because your roots are showing, you might be a Goth Rocker. (apologies to Jeff Foxworthy)

Despite Type O Negative's rejection of the "Goth" label to describe their unique musical style, observant Goths are guaranteed to be listening to two songs today- Type O Negative's "Black No. 1" and Bauhaus' "Bela Lugosi's Dead".

Voltaire, author of the 2004 book What is Goth?, briefly describes his observations of the vintage New York Goth scene:
