Not a fan? I find at least half the songs I like on each album - except Exciter.

Why is it that 50 doesn't seem that old to me anymore? I used to think it was ANCIENT!


because you're 47?
With the Force as his ally he did battle with the Dark Lord. And he showed the measure of a true Jedi at a place called "The Death Star" where hope for the Galaxy was reborn. May all who struggle against tyranny hold his memory in their hearts

Mr. Brian, I find that offensive.

...plus they are all stadiums. Not many bands from the 80's are still doing stadium tours.

Then they head to North and South America!

I know...I had to book it though.

I suspect they may do a couple of Arena dates in the UK after the N America dates.

I wouldn't open the window to listen to them if they were playing in the garden.
