You can also find an article the Illinois Times did on Henry Rollins coming to Springfield here.  From the article:

Henry Rollins is no Abe Lincoln.  But that doesn’t stop the 51-year-old punk rock icon, TV personality, author and blogger from incorporating sections of the 16th president’s 1838 speech to the Young Men’s Lyceum in Springfield as part of “Capitalism,” his current spoken word tour of all 50 state capitals, which touches down at the Hoogland Center for the Arts next Thursday, Oct. 11. “I talk a lot about Lincoln, just because he’s a very meaningful American to me,” says Rollins in a telephone interview. “I just like the way the guy thought.”
