Pet Shop Boys

Did anyone go to the PSB show last night? It was like a Broadway show. A very, very gay Broadway show.

Isn't that a redundancy?

Very good time.  Definitely more like theater than a concert.  Loved the giant heads.

In one word: fun.  it was indeed an electronic broadway show, great lights, moving props and projections.  neil's voice sounded very good - as did DAR Hall, relatively speaking.  i believe that my GF was one of about 10 women in the whole place.  i was surprized at how many of their old hits they played - namely, all of them.  the giant heads, and the crazy "hats" that the backup singers kept popping up in, were a hoot.  i thoroughly enjoyed the PSB's show.

It was a good mix of old and new stuff.  Among the hits:
 
 Suburbia
 Opportunities (Let's Make Lots Of Money)
 Always On My Mind
 Where The Streets Have No Name
 West End Girls
 It's A Sin
 Go West
 Domino Dancing
 
 ...I'm sure I'm missing a few
 
 Noticeably absent:
 
 Being Boring
 What Have I Done To Deserve This?
 NYC Boy
 Absolutely Fabulous
