An original backstage laminate from the legendary New Barbarians tour — the supergroup featuring Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood. This pass was issued to Johnny "JW" Roberts, SHOWCO audio engineer, and bears the hand-signed authorization of Richard Fernandez.
Richard Fernandez is one of rock and roll's most storied tour managers, with a 38-year career spanning some of the greatest acts in music history — including the Faces, The Eagles, Frank Zappa, Dave Mason, Keith Richards, Ron Wood, Yes, Crosby Stills & Nash, Fleetwood Mac, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, John Fogerty, Jeff Lynne, the Cars, Olivia Newton-John, and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. In 2016, Richard was honored with the Parnelli Lifetime Achievement Award, the highest recognition in live event production. His signature on this pass is a piece of touring history in its own right.
The reverse shows the natural patina of decades of storage — a testament to its authenticity and age. A rare piece of rock and roll touring history from one of the most storied road crews in the business.
