Henry Rollins

Those who grew up listening to Damaged probably never imagined that Henry Rollins would one day turn into a no-necked David Brenner, but at this point, Rollins has spent more time working the spoken-word circuit than he spent in Black Flag. He uses his stand-up spiels to temper his rage with humor, but with the current governmental gridlock, don't be surprised if he offers up a little Thomas Paine-like Common Sense—with an emphasis on the pain, you know, because he's all ripped and mean and stuff. This tour shares a name with the age he just turned last month: 50.
