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 traveling, Rollins prefers a 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. Rollins has toured the
world as a spoken word artist, as frontman for both Rollins Band and Black Flag
and as a solitary traveler with insatiable curiosity, favoring
road-less-traveled locales in places such as Nepal, Sri Lanka, Siberia, North
Korea, South Sudan and Iran.
