Henry Rollins – Good To See and Hear You: Interview

Henry Rollins is returning to New Zealand in July, bringing his Good To See You Tour to Christchurch, Wellington and Auckland. Here he is to explain…everything.

The 13th Floor’s Marty Duda spoke to Henry who was home in Nashville. As always, Henry’s got a lot on his mind and he’s not shy about sharing it. So, sit back, relax and listen as Henry Rollins pontificates on life, politics and music. And find out what his most treasured possession is in his massive record collection.

Henry Rollins brings his Good To See You tour to Christchurch, Wellington, Devonport and Auckland, with dates and venues as follows:

Wednesday 5 July – The Vic Theatre, Devonport

Thursday 6 July – SkyCity Theatre, Auckland

Friday 7 July – James Hay Theatre, Christchurch

Saturday 8 July – Old St Pauls, Wellington

Rollins’ popular spoken word performances, or “talking shows,” mix political commentary and personal anecdote, humour, outrage, and pop culture, all with a healthy dose of scepticism.

For his first New Zealand tour in seven years, Henry Rollins recounts the events of his life in the pre-Covid period since the last tour, and when things got even stranger over the past year. It’s been an interesting time to say the least and as always Rollins has some great stories to tell.

Henry Rollins 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, favouring road-less-travelled locales in places such as Nepal, Sri Lanka, Siberia, North Korea, South Sudan and Iran.

Entertainment Weekly describes Rollins as “Punk Rock icon. Spoken word poet. Actor. Author. DJ. Is there anything this guy can’t do?”
