Those Two Daring Pirates was launched in West Melbourne at Hound Dog's Bop Shop, a record shop specialising in original and reissues of rock & roll, rockabilly, hillbilly, country, blues, soul, jive and boogie. It was later exhibited as part of The Banyule City Council Works on Paper Art Award 2005.

Huge thanks to The Pelican Duet for the music, Denys Williams for the superb venue, Elaine Haby for the serves of red beans & rice and Peter Haby for the New Orleans themed collage that runs along the spine of the slip box. Without you, this would not have been possible nor nearly as much fun.
