    I remember this like it was yesterday (I'm actually writing this 35 years and 1 day since the gig). I was a student in Sheffield and I remember hearing the announcement about the show on Radio1 one Saturday morning and that the tickets were on sale that day, I legged it straight to the City Hall and got front row. That's me in the black shirt next to the guy in the red shirt. Leadmill after the show and missed the bus back to Ranmoor Hall so had to walk.

    Just seen them at Leeds, about the 5th time now. Saw them in the 80s, 90s and 2000s, so still relevant today, and their music never dates. New Wave at its best. Even Kraftwerk came to see them, no doubt see what their competition was.

    Saw OMD last week here in Holland,they so great. Now 35 year after this concert they still great.
  • that performance of romance of the telescope is stunning, pure catharsis

    I remember watching this when it was broadcast. I didnt really appreciate Crush when it came out, but have come to look at in a different light over the last 30 years.

    On Wednesday I was walking through Meols to take a picture in the phone booth( telephone Box), then I passed in front of Andy's parents' house and from there I walked to Red Rocks on Stanley road, they say Andy McCluskey lives there, it was very cold in the Stanley road but I liked it and it was worth it.

    Seen OMD Sheffield City Hall, these audiences are so appreciative and there is alot of dancing and fun. Brilliant concerts, and hope to see them at Leeds Fest. 26 June 2021. Like the interview with Peter Powell, intelligent articulate, passionate gentile guys.
  • I was there and thought the Weir brothers were terrific, they added another dimension to a brilliant band.
