Figured this should be posted here as well and not only on FB. Fellow murmursian Werner dug these up in the Getty Images archive. Pretty cool pictures from what was probably the band's fifth ever show, May 15th 1980 (although the labels say 16th). Pretty damn cool if you ask me!

And then click "more images like these" up on the right side to see them all.

It should be mentioned that at least one of these pictures have been published, in the review of the show at the time, but all the others have to my knowledge never been published.
