The New HBO documentary Pee-wee Herman as Himselfis generating plenty of buzz. Among those to take notice are the Go-Go’s, who rose out of the same Los Angeles punk rock scene that spawned the comedian/actor.
On Sunday, May 25, the Go-Go’s posted a carousel tribute to Pee-wee Herman and his alter-ego Paul Reubens by sharing some photos on Instagram.

The first photo, which appears to be a screen shot from the Herman doc, shows Ruebens waving in front of the Roxy Theatre in West Hollywood, Calif. Keen observers will note that a poster for an upcoming Go-Go’s gig is framed on the wall behind him.
The next photo in the carousel reveals a blurry closeup of the poster, while the following pic shows an ad for the Roxy revealing that the Pee Wee Herman Show played at the club on June 15 and 16, just one night before the Go-Go’s headlined a sold-out show at the iconic nightspot. (The Go-Go’s returned to the Roxy on April 9 of this year for a charity warm-up gig prior to their appearances at Coachella on April 11 and 18).
The final photo of the bunch is a black-and-white shot of the Go-Go’s posing with Pee-wee. “Have you all watched the new documentary on the one and only @peeweeherman on MAX? We have made an "appearance" in the documentary. We had a sold out show June 17, 1981, the same week Peewee had his show at the @theroxy in Los Angeles. The last photo with Peewee, our manager Ginger is on the far right,” reads the caption.
