AND THE BOAT SAILS ON
Ruiner and Break Even.
Photos from the road by James Hartley.

28 page High Quality Print zine ( Digital Offset not photocopy) hand numbered out of 300 copies.

This book is a documentation of the November 2008 tour of Ruiner and Break Even. As you may know, tragically upon returning to Perth from this tour, Break Even guitarist Rowan Willoughby took his own life. This book has been designed as a way to remember Rowan, to get these previously unseen photos published and to remind everyone that life is fragile.

We need to look out for each other. And we need to talk about our own problems. There is often a weird stigma or taboo that goes with talking about depression. But the reality is that youth and young adult depression rates in australia are a constant threat. When things are dark, we gotta keep that Positive Mental Attitude.

All profits from the sale of these books is going to pressing more copies of Cloud Street, the solo cd which Rowan had recorded. These should be available on the “I’d Rather Be Gigging” Tour later in the year when Break Even return from Europe

These books will be available for sale for $10 each. You can pick one up across Australia on the Runier/ Hopeless tour, from the Hopeless merch desk. Please check them out and support all the bands playing, if you are interested, pick up a copy.

The book will also be available from Pyramid Scheme Press in the next week or so. A limited edition pre order tee shirt may also be available, its still in the works.

Peace Love and PMA
