    Not a complaint or anything ,just an observation . With the current economical climate , it cant be just coincidence that 3 major 80s bands , Ultrovox, Depeche Mode and Spandau Ballet have all recently announced comeback tours and Robbie williams has hinted he is keen to have a reunion with Take That although I suspect first 3 are more in need of the ' last big pay check day ' than TT . :)

    I wouldn't consider Depeche Mode being on a "comeback" tour. They were quite active throughout the 90s and 00s and have a new album out in April, which is what they will be supporting on their trek.

    I went to see the Specials back in the 80s when they played a double header with Dr Feelgood .The gig was at a venue in Georges street which was later turned into a sknooker hall .
