West Auckland Punk Gig Poster
1982


This is a gig poster for a local Punk dance in Auckland New Zealand from 1982. No Tag, The Mormons, The Plunket Boys and Red Cross were  cornerstone bands of the early 1980’s West Auckland hall punk scene. They played self-organised gigs in hired West Auckland halls. The gigs were promoted by world of mouth and self-designed photocopied posters like this one. The Plunket Boys put this gig (and therefore this poster) together. It was closed down early by the Police like many were. The reason the Queen says there are four bands playing but there are five on the poster, is because No Tag were added at the last minute.
