In describing Henry Rollins, the tendency is to try to squeeze as many labels as possible into a single sentence. “Rollins is many things,” says The Washington Post, “diatribist, confessor, provocateur, humorist, even motivational speaker…his is an enthusiastic and engaging chatter.” They’re not wrong.
2023 will see Henry return to the stage in the UK and Europe with his engaging and often hilarious “talking shows.” Upon announcing the tour, Rollins shared: “Hello! Henry Rollins here. Very happy to announce I’ve got a ton of shows all over Europe / UK on my Good To See You tour, February 1st – April 7, 2023.”
He continues: “It’s always good to be on tour with a show every night but this time around, it seems better than ever. There were several months where I didn’t think I’d be doing shows ever again. The tour of North America started in March of 2022 and ends in Honolulu on November 5th at 114 shows. I’ve got a lot of stories since I was last with you, travel before COVID, and some truly crazy/memorable events that transpired over the last couple of years, which made perfect material for storytelling. I’d rather not get into it here but ask (beg) you show up to hear me roll it out in person. I’m excited about next year’s shows already and feel so fortunate to have them to look forward to. The last time I was in Europe was 2018. It hurts to know it’s been that long. I hope to see you soon. Henry”
On the Good To See You tour (artwork by longtime friend and collaborator Shepard Fairey) Henry will faithfully recount the events of his life in the brief pre-COVID period since the last tour and when things got even stranger over the last several months. It’s been an interesting time, to say the least, and he’s got some great stories to tell.
