The dancers appear in the same songs they did in Glastonbury.

I wondered if he had confused songs... and meant Love comes quickly?

After years of looking at these forums, I finally joined up to post.
I went to the Monday night performance at the ROH and like others saw (and sat near) to Michael Portillo who was shorter than I expected, and at the end of the show I exited the building with Janet Street Porter next to me in a blue trouser suit, looking amazing considering she’s in her 70s, oh, and taller than I expected.

I love them Image
btw about Clare Uchima before i started listening PSB i think i heard that name before and today i realised where from. She sang one of the main songs for game Ghost of Tsushima.
Your life's a mystery, mine is an open book. If I could read your mind, I think I'd take a look.

perhaps, Love is everywhere by Cicero/psb. Reached number 19 January 1992. :)

I know, right? Can’t believe it’s over already. :cry:

They could have played a whole month at the Opera House and it would have still sold out.

I’m jealous of all of you who are going to Blackpool and Preston! :mrgreen:

Watching them at the ROH from the orchestra pit on Friday really was incredible! A real 'experience'.

My 29th time seeing them live (and 4th seeing Dreamworld), and the most special. It was also extremely comfortable even in the 'busiest' part of the pit - not crowded at all, despite being sold out.

It really doesn't matter how many times you've seen Dreamworld, seeing it in the ROH over an arena completely transforms the experience. Worth every penny.

Agree with you, I went Saturday in the pit, third time at ROH and have seen Dreamworld (Bournemouth, Bilbao, Leeds, Brighton, Koko, Electric Ballroom) amazing experience. Took my eldest daughter (21) who loved it as well, the music plays forever.

Absolute ball on Saturday at the ROH , booked the weekend in London coming from Ireland. . Got the tickets for 40 pounds as they were high up , but a small venue so not bad at all for the Saturday night last gig there . Got there early this year , last time on the super tour we got delayed in a restaurant down the road and didn’t get a chance to enjoy the pre gig atmosphere . This time we were nice and early and what an amazing place .
The great thing was we were in the last row so you could stand or go nuts for the whole gig without anybody giving you the “evil eyes”. 2 lovely lady’s beside us with Boy hats . Even gave me one for a photo .. you can see why they PSB love this place ..

I love the typical older electronic bands, DM ,PSB Omd etc . We are all getting on these days .
The crowd at the OMD gig in London o2 in March was on the older side compared to the other bands , however I would say I’ve never known a concert like it . Howard Jones was support , and we couldn’t believe how empty it was walking into the venue, then we walked into the O2 and the place was packed . Was a bit surreal to see a a support act so popular . O2 was only half used with the higher deck closed .

I was there for that gig. Howard Jones was incredible. That was my tenth time seeing him and easily the largest audience he’s had for nearly 30 years. He done himself and his back catalogue proud.

Within budget, I specifically wanted a sitting and a pit ticket at ROH as I've never been and wanted to get the experience/enjoy the venue from both angles.

I do normally try and get the end of the row at seated gigs as while I'm short, I don't want to annoy too many people by getting up and dancing. Once I've had a few vinos, I turn into a bit of a hype (wo)man and try to cajole sitters into dancing, I've even been known to look up into arena seating and balconies and gesture for people do get up. I know, I'm a pain in the arse.
Having said all of that, after arriving at Stansted at 7am on Tuesday and tramping round London all day, I was quite glad of a little sit down 🤣

I saw OMD in February in Belfast, small venue, standing on the floor, seated in the balcony, the place was bouncing.
