Now that announcements have been officially made and photographs on Dustin's website have been updated I can post an image I've been sitting on since the day we shot it. The same day of Dustin's Words photo shoot we shot for his up and coming Bag of Bones tour. Since his tour has a man-on-his-own-playing-guitar-on-the-road-vagabond sort of feel to it, we shot aiming for that same concept. Dustin, being the good sport that he is, rolled around in a dirt pile before the shoot and stared right into the sun several times over for me. As rigs flew by us and commuters wondered what the hell two guys are doing standing practically in the median of an interstate during rush hour in the middle of Texas June temperatures, we shot pictures hoping for something that seemed rugged and epic and movie poster cool. I think we nailed it.
If you want your very own copy of this photograph you can go to www.dustinperkinsmusic.com and click on the link to help support Dustin on the Bag of Bones Tour. A donation of $5 or more gets you a postcard from wherever he's at on the road. The tour doesn't start 'til August 22nd, so don't forget. In fact, set a reminder on your phone now and get Dustin to his next gig. A big thank you to Dustin and producer Greg White for letting me be so involved on this album and tour. It's been-and still is-a blast.
