There’s a brand spanking new Shepard Fairey Henry Rollins poster about to hit the streets, and with the US election coming to a head over the next month, Hank is set to tour.
“Henry is awesome. He was and continues to be an inspiration and influence for me I was honored to do this poster for his spoken word tour. He also recently wrote an essay for my Museum show at the ICA in Boston. The guy is on point.”?-Shepard
The poster print will be on sale Friday, 10/03. Edition of 1650, only 200 available on OBEY, $45.?To purchase click here!
As the Bush era winds down, Henry Rollins is gearing up to hit the road with an eye to the future and a disapproving nod to the past. Henry’s latest talking tour, dubbed RECOUNTDOWN, kicks off September 19 in Berkeley, CA and continues past Election Day. Tickets for the tour go on sale July 17 and July 18, with pre-sales starting on Monday, July 14 at 10 a.m. Fans who purchase tickets early will automatically be entered to win an autographed HENRY ROLLINS prize package.
“Hoping that the bad times are almost over, I am taking advantage of the current situation to spend the last few nights of the catastrophic Bush administration onstage,” Henry says of the RECOUNTDOWN tour.
“Things will be so different after he’s gone. For me, the new century will have finally arrived. Since I was last in the cities that I will be visiting on this tour, I have been fairly far and wide and have a lot of new stories to tell. I look forward to spending autumn in my favorite country.”
While the tour’s title boasts multiple layers of meaning, the primary target of Henry’s wrath and wit is both singular and clear. Sometimes grave, sometimes comical, Henry’s talking shows – a free-flowing fusion of travelogue, pop-culture, and political commentary – “have become,” says syndicated columnist Alan Sculley, “a lengthy but exhilarating forum.”
