We have never offered this original first printing handbill until now and it’s in super clean Museum Quality condition! This handbill promotes a Tubes concert on Oct 29 1977 at the historic Paramount Theatre in Portland Oregon. It features abstract Cubist-esque graphics of the group's faces with their band logo typesetting.
The Tubes first big hit "White Punks on Dope" was an anthem of wretched excess and ridiculed the Hollywood kids of the rich and famous in LA. A year after this show they embarked on another successful American tour which included an appearance on the Cher TV Special. They briefly returned to Europe but the trip was cut short after Fee Waybill fell off stage and broke his leg. Deadheads are aware that original Tubes member Vince Welnick later replaced Brent Mydland on keyboards in 1990. To check out more about their historic 1977 tour click here.
