With the tour fast approaching, people will be keen to share their experiences and discuss any new snippets of information. I’m sure there’ll be forum members that don’t want to see or hear “spoilers”. Let’s use this space so people can have the choice.

My highlights were:

Streets, which throbs and pulsates, taking the momentum from the first three songs into Boystown.

Rent, possibly their greatest melody.

Love Comes Quickly, anthemic.

Vocal, despite not being a 'greatest hit', is such a banger.

What have I done to deserve this?, the new girl...

Yes, the only merch-desk which had the signed ones available was outside the actual arena next to one of the restaurants at the entry. A bit confusing in London tonight.

Hi All, long time fan never been to one of the boys shows before. Just wondered what is the usual attire and is there anything I should know? Anybody here going to be there too? (probably a daft question :D )

Last post

I’d suggest sports casual. Ice white shoes, ice white socks with navy blue double cadet stripe, a pair of shorts, t-shirt with chevron action flash.

Classic Partridge! 🤣

Are the lyrics available?
Is it hairy back or hurry back ?
Love the original and the PSB mixes.
Had a thought when listening that it would be nice to hear with Simon le Bon's voice...

Hi peeps,

I am visiting London next week and would like to see the famous electronic show where Neil and Chris met up in 1981. If it still does exists and some people knows where it's situated, I would like to know. Thanks x

Does anyone have a definitive list of all the 7 / 12 singles that have double sleeves?

I only just discovered today that the Domino Dancing 7 also comes in a double sleeve, so wondering if there's others I'm not aware of.

Dear all.
I’m selling tickets to two PSB shows - one in Birmingham and one in London.
Due to a terrible war and injustice my country -Russia - inflicted on Ukraine I will not be able to fly abroad and attend.
I bought tickets in 2019 from Moscow and waited for 2 years to see Dreamworld tour.
Alas,...

Thank you for your kind words!

No problem Mayorova. I am sorry this has all happened. I hope you are feeling a little better now. (((hugs))).

1992. The Love album is thirty years old this week. Carter were described as “The Indie Pet Shop Boys” and indeed covered “Rent” as a B-Side to their “Rubbish” single

Later covered (acoustically) by Kylie on her DeConstruction “Hits+” compilation.

I sent mine to Neil in 2003 as he stated in one Literally, that he don´t have it in his collection.
Got the address from Mitch Clarks office from Redman (the website admin). Mitch replied by E-Mail that Neil was very happy to get it.
So one little piece of my former collection is in Neils home. :)

Really fun to see. Looks like these girls wanted something more with PSB than just watching them live, playing music. The host is quite touching with Neil and Chris. :lol:
