John Hinckley sells out Brooklyn show

This is just crazy. So for those too young to know, John Hinckley was a madman who tried to assassinate President Reagan back in 1981.

Hinckley was released from prison back in 2016 and had been petitioning to have less and less restrictions on his probation.  Once the restrictions were released he started trying to get a music career going.

Turns out he’s at least a curiosity to a few people, because managed to sell out a 450 seat room for a July 8th appearance.  Hinck also plays music on his Youtube channel.

Back in 1981, Hinckley became infatuated with actress Jodi Foster and in an attempt to impress her he tried to murder the president.
