oh dear oh dear oh dear. all us old folk WERE out there werent we? Allison.....wow. The first word out of her voice in the first song (Nobody's Diary) sent people through the roof. She still sounds exactly like the records. No backup vocals, no effects, just all pure voice. Incredible. The highlight for me was when Vince wheeled that reel-to-reel player out onto the middle of the stage..pressed play...and left the stage. Thats an old school Depeche Mode from back in 81. But the remix that played of "I Before E...." that came out of that tape player blew my mind..i am officially on the search now. Thanks Mr. Vaughan for the double vodka straight, and subsequent Patrons at the afterspot, great to see everyone.....well, almost everyone. Ran into one too many former hookups from back in the day. Funniest bit of the night...when we were walking in, we were talking about how we were gonna see some bad people from the 80's still kickin the 80's bi-level hairdo's, stereotypical queens, and prolly hear A Split Seconds "Rigor Mortis" out of the opening DJ.....we get inside and the second song we hear is A Split Seconds "Rigor Mortis", and both Roberts (Taylor and Vaughan) get accosted by some tired stereotypical queen, with a bad 80's bi-level haircut. It was brilliant!!
