Man, brings back memories of childhood.

Did anyone go to any of their shows in this current tour?
(For anyone who is planning to see a show that hasn't happened yet, I hope I'm not giving too much away)

I saw one of the 2 shows in NYC, and it was enjoyable. They played a bunch of cuts from their new album, and of course all the old favorites.
Funny how people (especially the ladies) would get all excited and suddenly start standing up and dancing, when one of the familiar tunes was played. When that happened, you had no choice but to stand up as well, or else you wouldn't see anything. At least that's how it was on the upper balcony, where I sat. They would probably be better to watch in a club, instead of a theater.
Seemed like "A Little Respect" was the biggest tune of the night.
Too bad not all of the instrumentals was played live.
What was up with Andy Bell (the singer) cross-dressing and later stripping? :gross:

I saw Erasure I think with Depeche Mode or New Order way back in college.

Makes me feel old.

A few friends and co-workers went to it, last night,

Saw New Order with Echo & the Bunnymen, now that was a fuckin' show!
