Tom was in fine voice and the sound mix was very good. We had the good fortune of sitting close to the stage (so we didn't get rained on the entire show). Good mix of classic TT songs and a few of the new ones interspersed.
I only wish Tom and his band had been the headliner and played MORE songs because he looks and sounds great compared to Boy George who looks FAT and sounds like he has lost about three register ranges in his formerly beautiful voice.

Synthpop, love it or hate it, it’s definitely an influence of at least one artist that you listen to today, with the intricate counter melodies performed in a contrapuntal fashion and the endless possibilities with the banks of sounds used. Lets discuss Blancmange, and English synthpop band who surfaced in the early 80s managing to secure number 8 in the charts with their album “Mange Tout”.
It’s great that they can pull this kind of sound off live too opening with their song “Blind Vision” which features a real host of synthesizers, a variety of sounds. “Living on the Ceiling” inspires some questionable dancing from punters but of course, a happy atmosphere at that. “Don’t Tell Me”, a single from “Mange Tout” elevates the vibe to a happy medium of fun and chill. It feels like a time warp with more moustaches than a Tom Selleck movie. They close with “Lose Your Love”, a single that has been sampled in many different records to this day.
