Henry Rollins

Friday night we went to see Henry Rollins at the York Centre, a semi-round theater at the University of Sydney. He was outstanding - went for over three hours! Spoken word completely, which is just amazing.

Great stories about his visits to Tehran, Damascus, and Beirut, all taken especially because they are capitals considered the enemy of the Unites States. He talked about the generous and welcoming people he met on his journeys, and the fact that people are pretty much the same all around the world.

Real hyperactive, extremely intense, very funny, very serious. Thanks Henry!
