Artefact

Flyer
Mike Pickering, Little Martin
The Hacienda
9th March 1987

One of those cheap paper half page flyers, typical of that point in time. Pretty sure it's 87 as most of these weren't that well known yet. Obviously looking back on it, it screams out that it should've been a big deal event. Much like the Last Supper (I use that all the time he he), it wasn't. 200 or so, I would guess, in attendance. Don't remember too much though. Robert Owens deejayed! Oh and Cresser was well impressed with Adonis' snake/leopardskin trousers. It was sort of taking trouserware in a different direction than we were used to at the time in mcr. Sorry for the crappy scan.
