For part four of my collaboration with MARCS and ARIA, I had the pleasure to share a cold one with young Owen. Owen is a Bar manager and on the imagery he’s wearing The Rubens band T-shirt by MARCS. Let’s jump straight into it.
Owen, do you remember your first band T-shirt?
– Oh yes, it was a RUN-DMC tee and I still have it. Or , well, I sort of have it. My girlfriend wears it now…
What do you prefer, a live band or a DJ?
– Obviously I don’t mind a live act but I prefer to see a DJ. A favourite is Adelaide DJ Driller, a resident DJ at the Sugar Night Club in Adelaide.
What’s your favourite ever album?
– Hell City Glamours EP Broken Glass, Beatless Hearts.
And best song?
– That’ll be Kenny Rogers’s The Gambler, hehe.
What makes a great band T-shirt?
– Well, first off, it has to be somewhat of a unique design. The band must be really good – and the tee and the band must be related. The whole thing must make sense.
World’s best beer brew?
– Easy: A Few Of Our Favourite Things, a beer from Young Henry’s containing smoked bacon and black truffles flavours.
This project is a collaboration with iconic Australian fashion brand MARCS and ARIA (Australian Record Industry Association). MARCS has launched five limited edition band t-shirts, all designed to support the #UnitedByMusic campaign. Let’s support our home grown Aussie music!
