Rodriguez ( Sugarman) – Australian Tour 2007
It was crazy doing this show. Sixto is one really gentle humble guy. He moves at his own pace, and his songs resonate strong after all these years.
When we got the chance to do this show it was pretty overwhelming. Having been fans of his music for a long time, and well aware of the myths surrounding his possible death and then his rediscovery culminating in a fantastic tour of South Africa that it seemed like it was just an incredible dream that we were going to see him in concert let alone do a poster for him.
The pic on the poster is obviously Rodriguez from his ‘ Coming From Reality’ Album. The cool thing about his music are the lyrics and the stories. He has a pretty strong view on the inner city dwellers, especially the poor. So we went for a inner city feel in the poster design with a brownstone building in the background, rough scrawled lyrics on his clothes and some bright eye popping colors making it jump from the pages.
After the Show Sixto hung out and signed posters, cds, photos and whatever else people had brought along for him to sign.
He made sure everyone got a signature, or met him. He was very cool indeed, and showed a deep apprciation for his fans.
Here’s hoping he tours again.!!
