My pal Jack (a.k.a. the guy who should blog again because I love reading his stuff) wrote in with rave reviews for last week’s Experience Hendrix gig in Akron.  Duh.  Like you would have expected anything less than awesome with the list of players attached to that show?  Thanks to Jack, I felt like I was at the show, and he shared an additional piece of awesome information with me that I’ll share with you in my next post in regards to a forthcoming show that you won’t want to miss!

This week’s show of the week comes courtesy of Mr. Henry Rollins, who will be at the Kent Stage on Thursday night for a spoken word gig.  It’s been a little while (we came dangerously close to quoting Staind there) since Rollins has been here for the spoken word thing, and if you want to check this one out, you’re going to need to act quickly.  As of right now, there are approximately 17 tickets left for the Rollins show, according to the Kent Stage website.

I think you can pretty much guarantee that this one will be sold out before Thursday night’s show.

I was lukewarm regarding Hank’s recent role on Sons of Anarchy, but I’m definitely looking forward to catching this show on Thursday night.  I’ve seen Rollins Band several times, but I’ve never been witness to a Rollins spoken word gig, although I owned many of the discs back in the day (The Boxed Life, etc.).  D.X. Ferris, Brian and myself will roll out for this one, and there’s even a rumored appearance from occasional ATV random blogger Mel.  It should be a really fun evening – come out and join us!
