Here we have an original poster showcasing one of the most popular female new wave / pop rock bands to ever grace the surface of the earth The Go Go's performing at the Portland Meadows in Oregon during November 1998. The Go Go's rose to fame during the early 1980's as the first all-female band that wrote their own songs and played their own instruments to top the Billboard album charts. Historically important bands like this are a crucial ingredient but it’s the insanely great art by Mike King appearing on these pacific northwest posters that make the Ultrasounds Collection so irresistible.
