The 'Greener Postures' tour was a performance tour by Philip 'Snakefinger' Lithman, funded by Ralph Records and The Cryptic Corporation. The majority of material performed on the tour was co-written by The Residents. It lasted from 1980 to 1981. The second leg of the tour is notable for it's abrupt ending following Snakefinger's unexpected heart attack. The third leg is notable for being Snakefinger and Eric Drew Feldman's first work together.
