SPARKS

Thanks to Miss Fierce for the photos, DeeDee for the review (sorry about your lost CD copy) and everyone for the review links. Sounds like it was a spot-on performance, and the excerpts on YouTube mak ...

MrMonte -- that's a pretty cool idea! But i'd have to agree with others here that R&R probably consider the idea done, dead, and buried -- it was a lot of work, very cathartic I'm sure, and they ...

I wonder if this will be the first concert in years where they don't perform "This Town"???

That'd be great. But I bet they bring it out for the encore.

Whatever you guys do, I'll send moral support and good vibes from across the pond!

Poppers sounds like a good idea. The chant for each musician would be cool too -- it'd annoy some of the other fa ...

Watched the stream. What a great show... and seeing the musicians at the end, you got a real feeling of accomplishment. Cute to see Tammy and Ron hugging.

Kids, ya done good.

Fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

Well, since this is my unquestioned favorite Sparks album, I can't say the live performance overshadowed the studio versions that much for me.

but it was a thrill to see these song ...

Aw - no Ron dance during Mickey Mouse!

No matter - the show's rocking!

heaven knows, the archbishop doesn't permit me to have fun i'm afraid!
i've played angst today and, must say, really like it. much more interesting than whomp to these miserable ears!

Over 100 golden tickets? That's great news. I was fearing super sparse crowds for some of the shows like Interior Design. 100 people can make a good amount of noise and generate lots of enthusiasm.

OK -- that was fun. That slick Harold Faltermeyer sound, though... I can honestly say i didn't even like it in the '80s. Whomp That Sucker tomorrow is going to be such a relief!

"Singing in ...

Watching the live stream now. Never heard any of these songs before. Dig those '80s synth sounds!

Watched parts of the webcast, and it looked like a fun show. Someone was commenting on one of the previous shows, about how so many Sparks albums have great closing tracks -- this one, no exception, ...

I wonder if the sound varies a bit depending on where you stand.

Yes, in most places it does. The rule of thumb I've heard from clubgoing friends is that the sound will be the most balanced if yo ...

Wow, that was stunning. Horns for Get in the Swing and Looks^3, string quartet + recorder for Under the table, and a fiddler on 1918 - this was a big, grand package. I like Propaganda as an album m ...

That was my first time watching one of the webcasts, and it worked like a charm (a few delays in the video -- but i'm on the other side of the pond, so to me that's a small price to pay). THANK YOU s ...

I gotta go with "Moustache."

Oh, that's amazing. Thanks!!!
