AC/DC For Those About To Rock America US tour pass
|
Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
As mentioned in the main description this set includes passes from the 1981/82 World Tour to promote 'For Those About To Rock [We Salute You]' album, which sold over 4 million copies in the US. After its release the band embarked on its first arena tour of North America [late 1981 through early 1982]. It was also the first and only number 1 album for the band in the USA until the release of Black Ice in October 2008.
This set includes three rectangular passes all featuring a similar design which includes the cannon image from the 'For Those About To Rock [We Salute You]' album artwork, plus the classic AC/DC logo at the top with 'For Those About To Rock America' below. One has 'Guess Pass' text at the bottom and is coloured light blue, one is a 'Visitors Pass' and is in bronze/brown colour, and one is for 'Working Personnel' for the Seattle show from the 10th February 1982 and is also in blue.
Each pass has retained the original peelable backing with manufacturer 'Otto' logo and address details, confirming these to be genuine passes.
Also includes a laminate pass which is almost identical to the others in design, features some kind of picture background with the statue image on the right with 'Pink Floyd' & 'World Tour 1994' green text down the left side, above the statue inage is the well know 'P' logo, at the bottom is 'Local Crew' green text along with a blank space for an id to be written, on the back is the Otto logo & address repeated all over.
Information On Passes The passes would have been custom manufactured on adhesive backed rayon acetate satin cloth with a removable paper backing, the early versions simply had a plain backing but soon started to have the manufatures name/logo and sometimes the address printed.
Bands touring multiple cities and large venues had their passes printed on large sheets, with layouts featuring multiple designs including different colour combinations plus details for different tour staff and areas of access.
Only a few are then cut into the different shapes so that there is no waste. Usually at the end there some printing overruns, set-up sheets, color test prints, printer's proof sheets, and discarded misprints which are usaually destroyed but some do survive and are very rare and are highly collectable.
