In the freezing rain and one of the worst blizzards to hit our area in forever (according to the news), I went to see Henry Rollins do his spoken work at the Fillmore. I love this guy. He is 110% Do It Yourself in his business and life. Since his start as the front man for Black Flag, he’s taken music to new heights and remained a fan and critic throughout. My favorites are his books and performances of his readings. He is intelligent, well traveled and highly opinionated. He does lots of good deeds for the USO and causes he believes in. He’ll go through hell and back for his fans and we will slay a dragon for him. If you want to know the life and soul of one of America’s greatest musicians, read and see Henry. He pours himself out onto the pages with such naked openness. He gives you his ALL and then more.
And he signed my book!
