I was invited to go and see Adam Ant play last night at WILTON'S MUSIC HALL, by...well...Adam... which was a great treat! If you get the chance to go to Wilton's....GO!!!! It is an incredible Georgian Music Hall, and one of the best places to see a band, or have a party...
Adam played a stripped down set of ALL his hits and a host of amazing covers, No Fun, Cast Iron Arm, Peggy Sue, and Get it On amongst them!
Adam had taken a shine to the art I'd done of Tank Girl in a top hat, with an Adam Ant stripe on her face... so i gave him one of the new Gyclee Prints I've done, and a page from our book, Visions of Booga, in which he featured!
Adam was a huge inspiration to me as a kid, and it was a real honour not only to meet him, but find he's a fan of my work too. I wish I could go back and tell my 7 year old self that!!
I'll be uploading the new prints for sale today... including the iconic Tankie/Adam Ant stripe image!

Very cool, Rufus. I'm taking my son to see Adam in Edinburgh next week. Is he a comic fan or just a Tank Girl fan? I remember him being at a UKCAC bar years ago, in the company of Jamie Hewlett and Damon Albarn.
He's a massive comics fan... and a big tankie fan. He has her tattooed on his arse!
He's often browsing in Gosh Comics in Soho...
