Flyer - Saturday May 30, 1987




I promoted this show. My brother helped with the flyer. The Fallout Shelter was a peace organization that rented out their space so money went to the organization, which was a cool trade off. And the shows could be done as all ages shows.

Flyer - Sunday, May 17th, 1987

This was the first appearance in Toronto of the Henry Rollins group. It was the first year after Black Flag broke up and I remember Jill heath working the door. I didn't have enough money to get in and she let me in anyways. I wasn't sure what to expect and I think "Hot Animal Machine" was about to come out so that was the material performed at the show. I went to the matinee show. Circus Lupus were the band that morphed out of Mike Marley and the Sailors and would become Rocktopus after Jonathon Cummings moved to Montreal to join the Doughboys.

Flyer - Friday, May 15th, 1987

I remember giong to this show. At the time I had no idea that Dez Cadena had played in Black Flag prior to seeing the posters. I remember noticing that Dez did not look very punk, but that was also trye of other members of Black Flag so it wasn't really a surprise. The show took place in the back room at the Cameron House, which is the norm for this place.

This flyer was provided to the blog thanks to the archive of Noxious Art.

Photos: Beyond Possession





These were pictures of Beyond Possession that I took. They played a show in the summer of 1987, I think and it was at Ildiko's. They were into skateboarding and had a crossover sound. The singer was wearing hospital pants and was splattered in blood.
