Missing Hank, a kind of update to "Where in the World is..."
*sigh*
Alas, I have been lost and forlorn, missing my favorite aging alternative icon and his hoppin', boppin' and poppin' all over this big, blue Mardi Gras fun ball of ours. I miss post-show barrage on our little board and on flikr.com and youtube.com updates from fans all over the world. I miss the show reviews, the blog posts, the subterranean chatter about a relationship with Janeane Garofalo (but of course that kind of gossip is beneath us all here at Team Rollins.)
Lately it's mostly been some stuff he's doing over on the left coast a mere 3000 plus miles away from me. There is of course his radio show and I love it and listen as often as time allows, but it's just not the same. I missed out on getting the first edition of "A Preferred Blur" by about an hour so. While I have preordered it anyway, I must wait for the official release.
Oh, it appears he will be in Woodstock, NY next month! A mere 300 miles away. On a Friday night...bugger, bollocks and all around bloody hell.
No matter how I do the math, I would have to leave work at noon to be able to get home, muster the troops onto various care givers with instructions, pry the husband from the television and into the car just to make it to the show on time. Additionally, while tickets are very affordable, I don't particularly have enough flash cash on hand for a hotel room, tolls, gas, food and two tickets. So close, yet so damned far. It appears that I will just have to survive on the radio show, the weekly Dispatches, the political blog at VanityFair.com, two new books this year and some television appearances on a show I've not watched thus far. The movie he made with Cuba Gooding Jr. seems to be doing some wonky things...getting released on DVD at the end of May followed by a limited release at the theaters. Kinda' backwards that, innit? Either way, the DVD will be pre-ordered on Amazon post-haste.
Hank is making movies, doing shows, blogging, writing, acting, dispatching and DJ-ing his way through the year, gathering new intel to report to the masses...how dare we ask for more from him really. Yet we do.
Either way, Dear Henry, we miss you out here, in the real world. We'll see you when we see you.
