Gesellschaftshaus im Zoo, Frankfurt November 1977 concert poster
Original first printing concert poster advertising American rock group The Tubes at the Gesellschaftshaus im Zoo in Frankfurt [Germany] on Thursday, 24th November, 1977, presented by Marcel Avram and Marek Lieberberg’s MAMA Concerts. The concert in Frankfurt was part of the band’s first European tour during November and December in support of the Now album – their third studio album, produced by John Anthony and released in May 1977 by A&M Records. It includes a cover version of Captain Beefheart’s “My Head Is My Only House Unless It Rains” and Captain Beefheart also played saxophone on “Cathy’s Clone”. The cover of Now (and the poster artwork) was drawn by The Tubes’ drummer, Prairie Prince, “Tubes Descending a Staircase”, and was inspired by a similar drawing in Time magazine of the Ramones.
The poster measures 59.1 x 83.7 cm (approx. 23.3″ by 33″ inches) and is beautifully printed on thin, smooth-finish uncoated paper stock. Faint crease mark to the upper left side border, else in near excellent unfolded condition. Feel free to email us with any questions you may have concerning this item. Additional images of the poster available on request.
