Poster for performances and screenings under the title of "The Decline of Western Civilization." Bands present included Black Flag, Catholic Discipline, and the Five. Other bands appear to be listed, but the scan resolution makes their names illegible.



At the top of the post are the logos for Pittsburgh Filmmakers and the Pitt Program Council. The bands' respective names, along with the show name, A blurry image of a man laying on his back, his tongue sticking out, appears below the names.



The bottom third of the poster reads, "and The Five," above four pictures of the band members. The very bottom of the poster reads, "Friday August 19, David Lawrence Auditorium, (on Forbes Avenue in Oakland), Decline--8:00 pm, The Five-10:00pm, $3.00, Under 21 Welcome, For Information Call---681-5449"
