Page 67 has a nice advertisement for a QUEEN concert at Madison Square Garden with opening act Thin Lizzy. (see images)
Note: On February 5, 1977, Queen performed their inaugural concert at New York City's Madison Square Garden as part of the "A Day at the Races" Tour. This event marked a significant milestone for the band, fulfilling their ambition to play at this iconic venue to a capacity crowd .
I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
The Village Voice was an American counterculture newspaper known for being the country's first alternative newsweekly. It introduced free-form, high-spirited, and passionate journalism into the public discourse - a tradition it maintained throughout its 60+ year history. It is quite common to find great political cartoons, satirical cartoons and articles, thought-provoking editorials, and ads and reviews for both concerts and theater productions - both on and off Broadway. Many iconic writers and musicians credit their appearance in The Village Voice for at least a portion of their success.
Complete in 104 pages, tabloid-size, folded at the center, nice condition.
Provenance note: This issue comes from The Village Voice's own archives, part of their in-house collection used to create their digital archive.
