Henry Rollins talk show

Svenska (English below):

Henry Rollins (Henry Rollins.com) har en egen talk show som fr.o.m. 2/3 börjar sändas i svensk tv. Som första gäst har han Oliver Stone.
Senare skall både rapparen Chuck D och filmaren Werner Herzog gästa programmet.
Kan bli intressant.

För dem som inte känner till Rollins så väl kan berättas att han bl.a. var sångare i punkbandet Black Flag.
Han har även influerat och känner väl medlemmarna i Red Hot Chili Peppers.
Rollins har influerat många andra artister och lever i motsats till ett flertal kolleger inom rockbranschen ett mycket sunt liv.
Han är vegetarian, dricker inte alkohol, tränar hårt och skriver poesi bland mycket annat.
Han är också skådespelare (IMDb).
Kanske inte den vanligast förekommande kombinationen av intressen hos flertalet rockmusiker eller är jag fördomsfull nu?




English:

Henry Rollins (Henry Rollins.com) has his own talk show and from the second of March Swedish television is going to broadcast some of them.
As his first guest we will see the director Oliver Stone and later on he has also invited the artist Chuck D and director Werner Herzog.
Could become interesting.

For those of you who are not familiar with Rollins he has among other things been a singer in the punk band Black Flag.
He has influenced a lot of musicians and artists and he is a good friend and former 'mentor' for The Red Hot Chili Peppers.
He is also an actor (IMDb).
Opposite many of his colleagues in the rock and roll world he leads a somewhat different life.
He is a vegetarian and he doesn't drink alcohol, he train out physically every day and he writes poetry.
A rare combination or am I only being prejudicious?
