The synths of Howard Jones’ “Everlasting Love” and ABC’s “Poison Arrow” pierce the Genesee
Audiences have been the grateful recipients of an abundant Howard Jones touring schedule these past few years, and we’re lucky he’s back with another round, which he kicked off at the Masonic in San Francisco on the night of February 6.
The fans packed the Royal Concert Hall to capacity on Tuesday night, to energetically cheer on vocalist Martin Fry and to joyfully relive some of ABC’s best songs.
When ABC released their debut album The Lexicon of Love in 1982, the record went on to become a pop music classic that epitomised the New Romantic period in popular music.
Let's Rock is a festival held during the summer months throughout the UK in various cities. It is a very popular festival, with many thousands of people in the crowd - attracting many of the big names to play.
