Clubbing! Show ads from a hairier era...

Filed under: Unearthed

We've gone deep into the City pages vault and emerged with a handsome collection of ads from the big Twin Cities metal clubs of the '80s.

We've got a rich archive here at City Pages headquarters, and we'll be mining them from time to time for a series of posts we're calling Unearthed. For the Sex, Drugs, & Awesome Hair story, I pulled dozens of issues from the '80s and scanned ads from the big clubs of the day. These images go along with our vintage slideshow of the bands. Here they are, see you at the show!

I really enjoyed the City Pages article on the Hair Bands. I was wondering if you guy's at City Pages of a really young band that went by the name of Warloxx. They opened for acts like Paradox, Obsession and Dare Force. I think that they put these other bands to shame. I saw them in 1986 at the East side armory when they opened for Dare Force and when Dare Force was between songs the crowd was still shouting for the Warloxx. Do you guy's know where any of the members of Paradox or Warloxx or Baddatude or Obsession are today? Thanks for the article
