Henry Rollins is unlikely to go back to music anytime soon, claiming that he “wouldn’t go back on stage with a band for anything”.The artist was answering questions submitted by fans via The Guardian, one of whom asked why he had stepped back from making music in recent years.“I stopped processing ideas in terms of lyrics. One day, I woke up and thought: ‘I’m done’. My manager flipped out, but I’ve never looked back,” he said. “I didn’t want to become a human jukebox playing old songs, so I filled the space the band took with films and TV and now my shows, my radio show and writing.
At this point, I wouldn’t go back on stage with a band for anything.”Another fan asked him if touring a spoken-word show – which starts tonight (March 24) – was less stressful than a full band tour. Rollins said that although spoken-word doesn’t take as much of a toll on his body, it is still more demanding because he’s alone talking on stage.“Doing the music was like gladiator sport. I’d lose three pounds of water every show.
I’ve ripped up my back and my neck, and my jaw clicks from being smashed around,” he explained. “The talking shows are more demanding, because it’s only me on stage. It’s like comparing surgery with construction – one requires super concentration and the other is just physical.
And on the bus it’s not a tribe of stenchy men! It’s four non-smoking, low-key individuals. Backstage, it’s just me.”Rollins has a “major project” in the works, which he referenced in his recent book Sic. In response to a fan asking what it could be, he said: “It’s something I’ve been working on for a couple of years with my manager, Heidi May, and I’ve put my life savings into it.
