Always a Great Show! And I've seen a LOT of them!
by Doug Carroll on 11/19/23I may have seen more Henry Rollins spoken word shows than any other artist. Second only to Tom Petty, who I have seen at least 4 times. I will continue to see Henry whenever he has a new show. He has an endless amount of mind blowing stories! This show was great! I may have seen 6 shows in person, and bought all spoken word media. For one of his best, see if you can buy "Eric the Pilot"if he's still selling it. He always sold his spoken word shows for $5, which is totally reasonable. (Talk is cheap! (Inside joke!)) "Eric"is a fantastic story! YouTube if you must, but if you love it, buy the disc and support the artist! This is the disc I'd love to have him sign, if I think he'll be doing a post show meet and greet! (or I go to a pre-show!) I've loved all the TV shows he's produced. If any of those shows, such as "10 things you don't know about"are streamable, they were always very interesting! Who wouldn't want to hear stories from someone who loves to travel as much as him? They should still hold up, too! *Looks like the merch store is a bit vacant at the moment. YouTube Eric the Pilot and try to find the LONGEST one you can. Or find the CD in at a music store. That's probably the best version. **Henry! Put out a collection of all your spoken word material! I'll buy! And make the box "Vinyl"sized, as I would be HAPPY to put that on my wall as art, and add my tickets to the shows I've seen! I was lucky enough to see him the first time when I was in college in the 90s. I've gone to shows from Muncie, Chicago, South Bend, and Indianapolis! Always an amazing show and fairly priced! If you read this far, thanks! You're a hero!
