During his first visit to Kino Šiška, punk rock icon Henry Rollins, the legendary frontman of Rollins Band and Black Flag, actor, writer, activist and more, will tell us stories from his life in recent years in one of his unforgettable performances. Don’t miss an evening with one of the most important figures in music history, certainly one of the highlights of this year’s programme in Šiška!
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.” Entertainment Weekly’s list includes “Punk Rock icon. Spoken word poet. Actor. Author. DJ. Is there anything this guy can’t do?” TV Guide has more concisely called him a “Renaissance Man” but if Henry Rollins could be reduced to a single word, that word would undoubtedly be “workaholic.” When he’s not travelling, he prefers to keep a relentless schedule full of work, with gigs as an actor, author, DJ, voice-over artist and TV show host to name a few of the roles that keep his schedule full. He has toured the world as a spoken word artist, as frontman for both Rollins Band and Black Flag and as a solitary traveller with insatiable curiosity.
On the Good To See You 2023 tour, Henry Rollins 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. We’re honoured he’ll share them with us live in February.
Tickets on sale online and at Eventim outlets.
Organisation: Kino Šiška.
