- The TubesAn Evening With
Five months before London, a full-evening headline show on the West Coast — no support, just the band and the production, $7.50 in advance and $8.50 on the day. The poster treats the eight of them as a single silk-screened wall of faces in purple and yellow, which is about right for where the band’s identity had got to by 1977.
Now the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. The poster carries no city; it is placed in Portland by its ticket outlets — Meier & Frank, Lipman’s, Stevens & Son — all Portland businesses.
