Pic of the week 10/11/19
On Friday, Becky and I went to see the magnificent Orchestral Manoeuvers in the Dark, OMD, at the Bath Pavilion.
They were brilliant.
Up there with the best bands I’ve seen. Andy McCluskey is a real showman (and I hope to be as fit and mobile at 60 as he is), the light-show was great, the audience “up for it” but it was the music that stole the show.
One forgets how many hits they’ve had, and they belted them all out.
If I have to pick out a favourite OMD track, I think it would have to be Maid of Orleans, which they played about a quarter of the way into the set, straight after Joan of Arc.
But each time they started the next song you thought: “this is brilliant.”
A great night. A life affirming night.
