This button is from the 1982 Combat Rock Tour on which The Clash performed at Vancouver’s own Kerrisdale Arena on June 26th of that year. Later the same year the city parks board banned concerts at the area due to incidents and complaints stemming from a particularly crazy Motorhead show.

Here’s a link to an article about the arena’s concert history.
