Yep having a camp night Saturday 11th June and realy looking forward to it.

No need for a tent just a night of Erasure who ive never seen live and are one of the bands I realy loved during mid 80's...bit of a guilty pleasure!! Now to dig out my old vinyl from my parents garage.

Forestry Commission - Erasure ‘Total Pop’ Forest Concerts for 2011

Vince Clarke is a genius in my eyes, not putting a finger wrong with Depeche Mode, Yazoo and Erasure.

Went last night.......amazing.

Warm up act being Sophie Ellis Bextor, fine looking but cant sing to save her life. Felt a bit sorry for her as her act sort of died on its feet.

Erasure, Andy and Vince, true geniuses the pair of them Despite having a new album due (which im sure will be awful compared to their older stuff), they played 1 new track, 2 or 3 from post 90 with all remaining tracks from their mid/late 80's catalogue. Andy Bell not only sang a great set but was also realy funny on stage with loads of funny comments between tracks whilst catching is breath. As he explained he's getting older meaning some of his upper vocal range has gone and he needs to catch his breath alot more.

Great evening out, left with a big smile, well entertained and happy having seen a great electronic pop act with their best tracks. Dont get me wrong, im not a huge fan of Erasure (although I do love alot of Vince Clarkes work) but its great to see a classic electronic pop group playing their best stuff
