Dune Rats UK/ Euro tour 2014!

 
 This is pretty long overdue, but I guess it's better late than never right?

Following on their most excellent tour of South Africa, Australia's Dune Rats made their way North for a string of dates across The UK and Europe. I was asked to do a poster for the tour. I had tons of fun putting something together for this and here's how the it turned out.

Only a few dates left on this, but if you're in one of the last 3 cities, I highly recommend you check these guys out!

You are invited: Dune Rats South Africa 2014.

Last year a friend asked me to design a poster for an Australian band who would be visiting South Africa. The resulting tour saw The Dune Rats initiate South African audiences to their specific brand of chaos in the coolest way. For their return tour this year I was pretty damn amped to draw more sandworms and rippers. Here are the results:

I highly recommend you catch any/ all of these shows if you can!

UK do better 01 - the tour in posters.

I mentioned yesterday that I've recently come off a tour, playing bits of the UK with Johnny Foreigner, touring the band's 4th album "You Can Do Better".

As with pervious adventures with the band, this journey stands as one of the best things I've done with my time on this planet of our's. The shows themselves and the spaces in-between were pure magic. Totally ace, smile-inducing, mind-braking, life-affirming stuff. Much like our ghostly 2012 tour of the US (and nothing like our highly blogged about SA 2010 & UK 2011 tours) I didn't post anything about this round of life-changing exploits. This was a dead blog after all.

But, if SMAC is back from the grave, then there's surely little more worthy of reflecting back on than this tour. Without biting off more than I can chew, I'm hoping to assembly a bit of a posthumous tour diary. Luckily we crossed paths with some people that did lovely jobs of photographing, shooting and chatting to us, so with that to link back to, here's hoping I can get through this thing!

To start (something I should have posted before the adventure even kicked off) here's our tour in posters!
