poster use
by RICH ROBINSON
LIFE Staff Writer
The concert poster Program Hoard received for the upcoming
Tubes show Sunday has been rejected by the hoard.
I he greater part of Tuesday's meeting dealt with whether or not
I'B was going to use the poster, and by a 29 1 vote, decided not to
distribute it around campus.
i'he posters were delivered to the PH office last week by concert
promoters, hut because of its make up. officials decided to hold off
■ ■:, distributing it around campus until Tuesday's meeting of the
hoard.
There were a number of reasons why the board did not want to
use the poster. Much of the discussion revolved around errors it con
t.lined. The poster does not have the PR logo, and is missing some of
t he ticket outlets w huh were supposed to be included.
"Overall. I think it was poorly done." said Assistant Concert Coor
uiriator Jim Briley.  "It's hard to read, and it's just an unprofessional
n!i,'  s.tid Rriley. Okemos sophomore.
Another consideration the board debated over was the picture on
the poster. Most of the members thought the photo, showing lead
singer Fee Waybill between two women, might he considered offen
sue to the campus community.
There's been a lot of sexual controversy around here lately."
Pnlev said ""I don't think we need to be a part of that not with the
