The L.A. and Bay Area rock scene started in the late 1970s until new wave and heavy metal bands became the central focus of the 1980s. Some of the bands include: Mötley Crüe Iron Maiden Guns N’ Roses Depeche Mode Fatal Attraction Porno for Pyros Billy Idol Culture Club and others. The tickets span from Los Angeles to San Francisco and cities in between from 26 different venues some of which include The Troubadour Coconut Teaszer The Stone Trocadero Transfer The Metro Cow Palace The Palomino and Filthy McNasty Station. Many of the tickets are bright colors with printed pictures and stamped band logos showing the typographic designs of the time frame. Many bands kicked off their careers in California during this time. Mötley Crüe a popular heavy metal band formed in Los Angeles in 1981 is featured here playing at Oakland stadium on October 10 1987. The band is well known for their heavy make-up shocking clothing high-heeled boots and their abuse of drugs and alcohol. In 1985 the band transitioned to a more glam metal style influencing the heavy metal signature look. Guns N' Roses formed in 1985 in Los Angeles and is featured here playing at the Warfield Theatre on February 5 1988. They are a hard rock band that quickly gained popularity after the release of their debut album “Appetite for Destruction” which has sold over 28 million copies worldwide. The band has been labeled as the "the most dangerous band in the world" due to their rebelliousness and were credited to the rekindling of rock music during a time of dance music and glam metal. 1n 1992 Porno for Pyros formed in Los Angeles as an alternative rock group formed out of Jane’s Addiction. They are featured here playing at the Trocadero Transfer on June 19 1996. Their shows featured props extras and pyrotechnics. The band lasted through the mid-1990s and mixed the sounds of grunge and rock together. In the 1980s California became the melting pot of music genres mixing in punk rock new wave and metal. Certain venues became synonymous with the music genres and bands of that time. The Stone opened in the 1980s and was linked to the Keystone Berkeley and Keystone Palo Alto. It was large enough for a capacity of 700 sold only hard liquor at the bar and attracted an audience with bigger hair bigger shoes and makeup. It featured many local and big name artists in its day and was an important part of the Bay Area rock scene in the 1980s. The Coconut Teaszer operated from the 1980s through the mid-2000s. It hosted bands from all genres and featured a downstairs acoustic bar named “8121”. Sawdust on the dance floor and giant goblets for draft beer were some of the popular trademarks of the venue. One of the notable and peculiar policies of the venue was “no open toe shoes” which was painted on the front door. The Troubadour which is still functioning today opened in 1957. New wave and punk was the main feature for The Troubadour in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Through the 1980’s the venue became synonymous with the heavy metal genre and glam bands during that time. Today The Troubadour is revered as one of Hollywood’s most respected places to see live music. An attractive collection of brightly colored concert tickets featuring popular heavy metal and punk bands from the 1980s through the mid-1990s displaying over a decade of music in California. hardcover books

1931ref. 23714New York: Gold Label Books. Very Good in Very Good dj. 1941 c.1931. Reprint. Hardcover. price-clipped solid copy minor wear and slight bumping at several corners light dust-soiling to top of text block; jacket has some very tiny tears and a bit of wrinkling along the top and bottom edges very slight paper loss at a few corners lightly soiled but still bright and garishly attractive. The second book in the "Lost Soul Trilogy" I don't think anybody's actually ever called it that but it sounds good doesn't it originally published in 1931 as an opportunistic follow-up to the sensational "No Bed of Roses." The books were written by one-time N.Y. Evening Graphic reporter Marjorie Smith purportedly based on the "discovered" diaries of one "O.W." a prostitute and drug addict. In fact in the final chapter of this volume the narrator/diarist relates how she was tracked down by the woman presumably Miss Smith who had found three of her diaries; she proceeded to sell her the rights to her sordid story along with another fifteen! notebooks. This wealth of material allowed the author to document another five years' worth of "drunken brawls maniacal paroxysms poverty disease suffering and raving viciousness" that ultimately drove O.W. to commit herself to "narcosan treatment" i.e. drug rehab at New York's Welfare Island.which basically led her to conclude that she "didn't want to be saved." The book's conclusion is about as bleak as can be imagined: with the windfall from the sale of her diaries she buys herself a banana split briefly contemplates upgrading her wardrobe figuring if she looks prosperous she can get $4 for a trick instead of a measly $1.50 then admits to herself that all she really wants is "decks and decks of dope." And that it seems would have been that -- except that nearly twenty years later Ms. Smith made another fortuitous "discovery" i.e. that O.W. had had a daughter given up for adoption in infancy. And before you can say "Trilogy" there was another book "With My Eyes Wide Open: The Story of Another Lost Soul" chronicling THAT poor ignorant girl's doomed struggle against the curse of her wretched mother's "bad blood." Ah for the good old days when sluts were scorned and degraded instead of being given their own reality shows. . Gold Label Books hardcover books
