Press material and gig ads (part 4)

Here's some more clippings that may appeal to you:

Lets start with this 1981 two days festival in... Leeds of course!
Interesting to see less known gothic bands like Altered States figure here.
Note the presence of US bands like the mighty Wall of Voodoo.
Quite a mixture on this bill!


























Same year and an odd bill with Talisman, psychobilly kings The Meteors and Jaz's gang...
















This festival -associated with Amnesty International- remained to some peoples 
memories as one of the finest Killing Joke live moments...





















And to close with for now get some color - a funny add for a Play Dead live in 1984.
It looks bizzare and awkward I think, how Peter Saville's unmistakable style 
for Manchester's Hacienda is used to promote a gothic band's concert...
