If you don't know Henry Rollins already...
...here's why he's a remarkable human
So turns out RuPaul of RuPaul's Drag Race fame (among other things) has a podcast with Michelle Visage where they talk to show biz legends about their journey and about their own relationship with touring etc.
We've been recommending it around, and just got back from on of our contacts this email: "I listened to the Henry Rollins episode today: A W E S O M E!".
The briefest of contexts is that he was in the punk band Black Flag which was from the rough parts of LA in the 80s, and he toured relentlessly for many years. He's still considered an absolute icon by many – and it's not hard to see why.
His storytelling incites goosebumps multiple times, and without giving any more away we just recommend checking out this podcast episode, and if you don't know Rollins already, his work.
