The former Black Flag frontman comes to the UK next year

Henry Rollins has announced a series of UK spoken words shows for January 2016. See full details below.

The multi-media artist is probably best known as the frontman of hardcore punk band Black Flag in the '80s. He went on to form the Rollins Band and release a series of spoken word albums.

He's now announced plans for his first UK "talking shows" since 2012, with a January tour kicking off in Bristol on 10 January 2016 (we've only just got used to it being 2015, and now we're making plans for 2016?)

The "Charmingly Obstinate" tour will also include shows in Newcastle, Manchester, London, Birmingham, Dublin and Glasgow.
