To watch Henry Rollins is always a delight, whether it be 50 pounds of microphone cord wrapped around his arm in the presence of the band or solo for almost 3 hours without even a glass of water. Always intense, always passionate, always intelligent with a purpose or lesson behind almost everything story while being clear and quite funny too. American politics, musical influence, world travel, being a work slut, he covers much. He's a very bright light in todays entertainment arena. Is Henry Rollins related to George Carlin? Now that would be an intense conversation between uncle and nephew if it were only true. Different arts, somewhat, but topics are often aligned.

Mr. Rollins was full of piss and vinegar! His spoken word performance was powerful and insightful. He had many comments in regards to our friends from the south and there recent election. It was high brow night of thought provoking entertainment. I left it realizing that our generation is driving the change needed to make this world a better place.

Henry was a machine! He started just after 8:00 and didn't stop talking until after 10:30!! He stood stock-still for that whole time, only moving his right arm while keeping his left arm cocked and holding the microphone (with the cord wrapped around his hand a few times, as is his custom).

His performance was impressive; to be able to recall stories for over two hours is almost unbelievable unless one was there to witness it. One-third of Henry's anecdotes are autobiographical, one-third are political, and one-third are about his interaction with other people, especially people who have emotionally impacted him for a number of reasons.

Henry Rollins is a thinking person's entertainer. He mixes humour with pathos in a way that is uniquely his, and his personal evolution is obvious as he is one of a seemingly small number of people who learn how to be better humans as they age.

I recommend going to see Henry as well as listening to his recorded shows and reading his books. His take on life and society is intruiging and thought-provoking. The biography "Turned On" is compelling and also worthy of your time.

Great show, as always! Henry never disappoints. Super- kinetic mix of comic and dramatic stories that he somehow connects, though you leave not knowing quite how he did it. And how he did it without drinking any water! Masterful storyteller. Love that he seems to unconsciously revert to his one-foot-forward mic-rocking pose, like his body memory is deeply ingrained. Highly recommend!

What I love best about Henry Rollins' spoken word shows is that he has a lot of great stories to tell and he tells them in an entertaining manner. He is a man who leads a very enriched life full of traveling and experiences that most people don't even get to experience a fraction of in a whole lifespan let alone the couple of years that pass between Rollins' tours. It becomes quite easy to live vicariously through his stories.

As always, Mr. Rollins did his usual excellently long show. How does one man speak for nearly three hours straight, keep up his level of energy, and entertain so well? Having seen him at the Winspear the last several times, I was disappointed by the transition to the lesser Horowitz. A three hour show without intermission in those claustrophobic rows and seats gets kind of painful.

SHow was great. Henry gave out 10$ to every single person as he determined we were overcharged for the event. That was an experience i've never seen and wont soon forget.
Was my forst time seeing him. He had so many interesting stories and kept everyones interest. He basically didnt mocve for 3 hours or even stop to take a drink of water! A complete pro! Will definitley go back to see him when he comes back to Toronto.

Had a great time. Henry was in fine form. Talking about visits to William Shatner's house, stories covering 30 years of performance including the early years with Black Flag up to playing for one amused woman in Costco.

The man talked for about 2.5 hours almost without taking a breath.

See ya next year!

Fantastic show. Henry is the master of the segue. It's very hard to keep up with the brilliant mind of this man. Hey, how did he get to where he is talking about shopping at a U.S. big box store, a visit to North Korea, his Black Flag days.....

Oh ya, and laugh, did I ever laugh, non-stop. It's awesome for the soul to laugh like that.

Mix in the societal insights and social commentary, plus the $10 refund delivered personally to your seat. Yes, Henry apologized for a computer glitch that overcharged everyone at the show by $10. So, to start the show he explained that 5 Canadian fans sent him very respectfully crafted notes to ask why the tickets to his show were so pricey. He reached behind the curtain and withdrew a wad of $10 bills and handed them out. That's a class act.

I"m a conservative, and although Henry is clearly from a left wing and I'd say a little more than center -left, he clearly has some very important things to say from very interesting points of view. I believe that we need men like him who are indeferant to the average thinker bound by the laws and ideas of society and is brave enough to take his own path through some of the more difficult areas of the world that others would avoid and return with it's story though pure insight and comedy.

Henry was intense! He ranted for just shy of 3 hours only moving one leg once. Didn't even have a bottle of water on stage. It was a continuous stream of Rollins banter with the audience hanging on every word. I hope he stays away from HellA spends more time where he belongs on the road spreading the word. Spoken Word.

This is the fourth time I have seen Henry Rollins in a spoken word tour. I think its a must see because its so entertaining, but it makes you think as well. He has a great perspective on life and I really enjoy hearing about his experiences in his life.
He really should be seen at least once for those of you who are unsure how good it would be- give it a shot, its worth your time!
