DC and NYC posters on sale



The Doe Eyed Design posters for Mogwai's recent Washington DC and New York shows have gone on sale today:

Wow, this has been a busy few months, as you can see from the SEVEN new prints we're unveiling. First up, we have two prints from Mogwai's recent tour. For those keeping track, that makes FOUR Mogwai prints that we have designed over the years. We thought we'd celebrate with a little discount. Buy any TWO Mogwai prints and we'll ship them for free! Just use the code ROCKACTION at the checkout (International customers, please use the code DIEYOUNG for 50% off your shipping).

Hand-printed edition of 75



The final few copies of Dan Grzeca's poster for Mogwai's Bonnaroo show (9th June) are on sale here:

I understand that the Doe Eyed Design posters for New York and Washington will be on sale next week.

Unusually for recent tours, there seems to have been several shows with no poster this time around.

If anyone has spare copies of the Kevin Tong (Los Angeles) or James Flames (Philadelphia) posters, I'm more than interested.

Mogwai play Mexico City as a four-piece

Mogwai played last night's show in Mexico City as a four-piece. Stuart, Dominic and Barry were joined by James Hamilton (Errors) on drums. Martin and John were unable to leave the USA due to visa issues.

Presumably normality will be restored when Mogwai appear in Atlanta on 8th June, and for the remaining US dates. The run of US shows is broken by two shows in Canada later this month, although Mogwai have already managed to successfully cross the US-Canadian border once on this tour.

I stand to be corrected on this, but I believe this is the first time Mogwai have performed as a four-piece since 23rd September 1998 (Hereford, UK) - the last gig before Barry joined permanently. Unless any of the Curiosa shows in 2004 were four-piece line-ups due to John's illness?
Last night is also the first time Mogwai have ever played live without both Martin and John.
