    I see Gary Numan is touring, so far seven shows have been announced in the UK, Im just wondering if an Irish date might be slotted in too. I would say he would be worth checking out, judging by his recent performance at Bestival.

    I love this reworking of Are Friends Electric.

    Numan plays small tours like this fairly regularly. The last one was the Machine Music tour in May/June of this year. This tour included a show at the Button Factory, Dublin. A show his sidekick/keyboard player Ade Fenton described as the best of the tour.

    Dublin wont be included on this mini tour given how recent the last show was, but with a new album out early next year "Splinter", and a full world tour planned, Dublin will be in his plans.

    Ive seen him live 4 times and his live shows are incredible.

    Ive also met him which was a big deal for me, as Ive been a fan since the begining. He is a gent.

    If you liked the Bestival version of "Are friends electric"?, your gonna love this...

    That would have been bad alright.

    Got DM tix for Nov 9th - have to see if I can gain brownie points with the missus before I can get the GN tix though ;)

    He's a great performer alright - managed to catch him at the BF last year.
