      @@sharpvidtube yeah righto thats cool man. Loved the name of that band hehe i shall check them out. Look dont get me wrong i do like some artist today like The Week End, love Miley Cyrus and not becsuse shes pretty and all that just love her music. I hated the 90s it was like hiphop overload but some it was ok i mean i liked MMN and many more but god it was just to much how ever there was alot of good stuff that did come out of the 90s but i think like every decade ive noticed now music is just evolves. Like techno music which i dont mind acturly and county music its all changing and making its own genre. I do nown again just playing some classic classical music. These people that have spent all there life to profect an instrument and put them alltogether playing all of them is brilliant. Im really injoying stings concert on blue ray in my projctor screen with my surround sound set up in the shed lately its brilliant. You get a taste of everything.

      I did eventually get to see them in concert, at the SIU-C arena, in 1986 I think.

    I'm featuring the music of the Thompson Twins on my YT channel, so I was curious to hear what the band sounded like playing live today, and UA-cam led me to this clip. An interesting performance. I ended up being distracted by the drummer and bass player, because it looked like to me that they weren't actually playing their instruments. I don't know why they wouldn't be...in a live concert...but something seemed off. Singers are going to have bad nights, we can't expect them to be perfect every single night so I don't want to judge Tom on this single performance. At least he is singing! Pay to go see The Eagles in concert and you're going to hear Don Henley on tape. But still, it's weird that the musicians seemed to be playing along to a prerecorded track. I hope that's not the case.
