We may have mentioned once or twice that we're headed to Bonnaroo next week (cue the panicked holy cow, next week? freakout over my lack of preparation). Disorganization notwithstanding, we're pretty damn excited about it. Here's our second in a series of features on the bands that we're looking forward to seeing: Henry Rollins Henry Rollins is one of our five Ruckus Heroes (the other four are Abraham Lincoln, Frank Turner, Steve Martin, and Casey [...]
