So it was time to put on some glad rags, ok for me it was a clean shirt and tidy jeans, and it was off to Manchester with Peri to see the B52s the best dance and party band ever…… ( well I know a lot of people who think this is correct and I would agree with them ).
The audience was definitely more mature than some concerts I have been to recently but there was a number of younger fans who were certainly enjoying themselves. The B52's played a great set, it was a mixture of songs from the new album and a number of old classics like Love Shack, Roam, Planet Claire and Rock Lobster. They were on stage for 85-90 minutes, a lot longer than some younger bands.
I even went to Birmingham the next night to see them again, TIP Manchester Academy is a much nicer venue than Birmingham Academy for seeing bands, better parking and even air conditioning.
