Jermaine Rogers comments:
'So in 2008, I was commissioned by the FOO FIGHTERS to do a couple of posters promoting their shows for that tour. For the dates in Las Vegas and Austin City Limits, I created posters utilizing our eccentric little bunny, inserting him into a couple of classic rock and roll album cover images: 'Aladdin Sane' by David BowieMeasuring approx. 24x24 inches and printed on gallery cream stock, this screen print is from a limited Artist Edition of only 100 signed and numbered pieces.
and 'London Calling' by the Clash...both albums revered by the Foo Fighters.
Since then, both images have become somewhat iconic in their own right.
I've always planned to continue the idea...if the Foo Fighters ever gave me the chance. So there it is.
If you don't get the album reference, pray to the dark gods of rock and roll, that you may not be struck snowblind...' - jr
