Item Description
8.5x11" photocopy (xerographic print) on thin white stock produced before the show. PNW flyer promoting a "Live Black Flag New Wave Rock From L.A." concert at the "Long Goodbye" on April 21, 1980 in Portland, OR. Only minor handling, of file copy quality. NM. 2.75x4.25" ticket is offset print on thin dark yellow/goldenrod stock. For a concert featuring Black Flag, Decendents, The Chiefs, Vicious Circle & The Skrewz in Redondo Beach, CA at the Fleetwood w/hand stamped "Apr 11 1980" date at right. Additional text of note "Write Your Name & Address On The Back For Our Mailing List." Handling wear inc. diagonal crease. VF. These gigs were part of Black Flag's Summer 1980 tour, the band's first West Coast tour saw them venture out of the Los Angeles area for the first time.
With Keith Morris having left the band, guitarist Greg Ginn, bassist Chuck Dukowski, and drummer Roberto "ROBO" Valverde recruited Ron Reyes to become the singer. Reyes stayed long enough to record the Jealous Again single and make an appearance in the documentary film The Decline of Western Civilization. Reyes left the band mid-performance a little more than a month after this show, replaced by Dex Cadena before Henry Rollins joined in 1981. Considered the first hardcore punk band, it is fascinating to see the promoters in Portland pushing them as "New Wave Rock" in the early days as the group built its cult following.
