Wire on tour

[Obscured]

They'll be playing June 3 at the Music Hall of Williamsburg in Brooklyn and June 4 at The Bowery Ballroom in NYC here. Any other fans? I coulda sworn there was a thread here a year or two ago. (Ok, I see some chat about them in the Go4 thread.) Tickets are only $25- and go on sale in a couple of days.

Saw 'em in 02 or 03 in Los Angeles. Fantastic show! A lifetime top-20 concert, even though I didn't know much of the material. I think they played nothing at all from their early era, the only era I was familiar with beforehand. I subsequently bought the SEND cd, which is the one they were touring behind. I love it as much as the old stuff but have not checked out any of the more recent releases. I may actually be in NYC in early June so a good opportunity to go.

Can't say I enjoyed that much. Harkens back to their mid-80s sound. Probably my least favorite era. And the tune is just not very memorable. Still, I will give them more chances. They have usually delivered in the past.
