Signed copies of ‘A Preferred Blur’ on pre-order are now sold out. Man, that was quick! For those of you hoping the economic crisis would slow sales and keep you in with a chance… you were wrong. OK hands up, who’s going without food this week so they could get the book?

If you missed out, don’t worry. Hello Henry will have a treat for you on Monday. You might remember the “In Henry We Trust” Henry Rollins stencil we posted a little while ago. Well Hello Henry reader, Kat, has been kind enough to write a tutorial, complete with photos, on how to make your own t-shirt using the stencil and some freezer paper. So look out for that on Monday and have a great weekend!

Henry Rollins latest book “A Preferred Blur’ is now available for pre-order at the official store. The first 1000 copies will be personally signed by Henry.

I’m curious to know whether the person who receives the 1000th copy will open the book to find an indecipherable scrawl. Signing your name 1000 times must surely be a test of hand muscle endurance. But you know Henry. He’s probably been on some intense diet and hand exercise regime for the past three weeks in preparation for this mammoth signing session. Even so, I’m tipping he starts cramping like a MF at #365.

So when you receive your signed copy of ‘A Preferred Blur’ next month,  spare a thought for Henry’s poor Abductor Pollicis Brevis.

Just a reminder for fans of Henry Rollins radio show Harmony In My Head. He begins broadcasting on KCRW 89.9FM today at 6pm. The show can be streamed from the KCRW website and a will also be available on the site for one week after it airs.
