From the Japanese release of The First Flower.
Notice the mixed up sirnames! Also notice the extra tracks from the "Shine" 12" and the 1984 remix of Propaganda.
It appears that this contains an interview with the band. If anyone can translate this, I will gladly supply a full scan.

Submitted by Andy Thomson - "Flyer for gig at Klub Foot.
The venue, Klub Foot, was on Hammersmith Broadway in Hammersmith, West London, between the much larger Palais and Odeon (now Labatts Apollo). It didn't compare in size to it's larger neighbours but it had many more times the charisma and atmosphere, and provided the venue for many a good night out!"
Submitted by Andy Thomson - "Supporting Nick Cave
The Lyceum, at the end of The Strand in London. Massive venue steeped in tradition, and probably the largest venue the band had played to date. Didn't stay to see Nick Cave, and unfortunately didn't get there early enough to see Carcrash International. Nothing too memorable about this gig though."

Submitted by Andy Thomson - "Tour Dates - From The Promised Land.
Followed the band for a week except for Leeds. We forsook this date for a Chinese Meal in Blackpool as I recall. Five nights on the road, sleeping in Jason's
Mum's Ford Escort, getting mullered every night and generally falling out with each other. What a week!"

 

Submitted by Andy Thomson - "Tour Dates - Shine.
Went to Birmingham and Coventry on the 14th and 15th - my first times to see Play Dead. Both evenings marred by fighting with the locals. Only to be expected in the Midlands."
