# I can't disagree with you
but still can't avoid the fact that I saw Duran Duran and Ultravox in the small and cosy Manchester Apollo ( Take that kids, when we went to see bands we could still see the stage!) and remember having a jolly good time. ( I was front row for Duran Duran around the time they released Planet Earth. I recall being slightly scared by Nick Rhodes. )

Oh yeah and Billy Currie blew me away the first time I heard that electric violin live on the Vienna tour.

Interestingly for me I have met Dennis (John Foxx) a couple of times at events in recent years. He's not what you would expect.
