Great venue, great atmosphere and wow, oh wow what a show and what a showman. He still holds the audience in the palm of his hand. The songs are as relevant and fresh as when they were released 45yrs ago. A master class in music. Brilliant, breathtaking and a great evening. Thanks Gary.

Gary Numan Biography
May, 1979. It’s an ordinary Thursday evening, which means it’s time for Top of the Pops. Amidst a zeitgeist of punk and disco, the show suddenly appears to be interrupted by a transmission from the future. A luminous synth riff echoes out, a beat drives on and upsteps an otherworldly figure - part robot, part alien - to deliver an enigmatic lyric depicting some kind of android existence in a dystopian future. It’s Gary Numan fronting Tubeway Army for their breakthrough hit ‘Are ‘Friends’ Electric?’.
