Quick! What's the capital of Nebraska? How about Maine? Do you know the capital cities of all 50 states? It's like a flashback to fourth grade! If you'd like a fast refresher, simply look at the list of Henry Rollins' Capitalism Tour dates below.
From Honolulu to Washington, D.C., the former punk frontman with the ridiculously long resume has announced that he'll be visiting all 50 state capitals with his spoken word performances.
"It's just me and what's left of my intellect," Henry says. "I just call it a 'talking show,' because that's all I do."
With his first stop in Honolulu, Hawaii on September 6th, Henry will hike around the country until his final show in Washington, D.C. on November 5th.
"We will be going all the way up to election eve," Henry says. "It's always a great time to be in America, but this will be the high point of this year's tour. Shepard Fairey did a great poster for the tour to make it extra noteworthy. I can't wait to start this one."
