Marc Almond "live" cover of Rent.
Marc performed a great cover of Rent this evening at Cadogan Hall with piano accompaniment from Chris (Braide!) saying beforehand that it was a song he wished he'd written and afterwards that he's always jealous of it!

Re: Marc Almond
The title alone without the brilliant song is (and certainly was at the time) very provocative, especially when combined with the moody sleeve art.
I don't know whether any fans filmed it, I just didn't know it was coming and we weren't supposed to be using cameras anyway. It seems it's the first time he's ever performed it - hopefully not just a one-off.

There's a message from a fan asking him whether he's going to sing West End Girls again with Chris Difford!

frustrating that instagram is a walled garden, so hard to follow links
gave up, but found this cool mashup for Soft Cell and PSB https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umrHRaUyviA

Despite being a big Marc Almond fan, I don't always check his Instagram!

Hmm, weird, not sure why it stopped working, I get the same error on my Mac when even navigating to the main page. https://instagram.com/marcalmondofficial/
Seems fine via the App.

Marc performed it again tonight giving credit to Neil and Chris for the number one physical single of Purple Zone which he performed afterwards.

Superb thanks! I was lucky enough to have a seat in Row D. Enjoy Cambridge - you are in for a treat.OakeyDokey wrote: ↑Sun 16 Oct 2022, 11:49 pm Nice one, was he good? Seeing him next week in Cambridge.
As a heads up just in case there is a relaxed filming policy (unlikely I know!) he went into ''Rent'' almost immediately after his great cover of Peter Hammill's Vision.
