Danceteria flyer archive from the '80s

Mmmmm I can smell the hairspray and cigarettes already. Magnificent gallery of posters from New York's Danceteria, an '80s mecca for new wave music and weird / hip / artsy culture. Featured artists and personalities include Nina Hagen (shown here), Sonic Youth, Gene Loves Jezebel, Laurie Anderson, Richard Hell, and many others.

As you browse the scans, remember: at the time, design was 100% Photoshop-free, making these all the more awesome.

Link to gallery. I'm pretty sure this image is my favorite: Link. (Thanks, Jason Grier).

Update: Robin says,

Nina Hagen is still around and recently set up her own fashion label "Mother of Punk". She hasn't let go of her old look, just made it all new again.

And BB reader B.D. sez:

Nina Hagen is indeed still kicking. She's playing a live show in Seattle tomorrow night at Neumo's. She'll be in Portland on Saturday night. This is part of her "50th Universal Bearthday Concert Bash".
