## Resource

This week on the Rockonteurs podcast, we welcome Blur drummer Dave Rowntree to the show.  Dave has recently released a beautiful book of intimate, candid, and never before seen photographs from the very early days of Blur. ‘No One You Know’ is out now and chronicles the band’s first adventures.  Dave chats to Gary and Guy about those early days, his life with and without Blur, and shares stories of flying the band around, early trips to Japan with his Olympus OM10 camera, and Blur’s triumphant 2023 shows at Wembley.  You can buy the book here:  https://www.diggersfactory.com/merch/326845/david-rowntree-no-one-you-know-early-blur-photos Instagram @rockonteurs @guyprattofficial @garyjkemp @davidrowntree @blurofficial @gimmesugarproductions    Listen to the podcast and watch some of our latest episodes on our Rockonteurs YouTube channel.
