• Gary Numan

  Finally seeing Gary Numan for the second time in just over 30 years! This night at Los Angeles Theater of course included much of his new songs of the last decade, some of which are not my cup of tea. However his performance of every song was so enthusiastic and powerful that the entire show was a thrill. Carefully juxtapositioning earlier hits "Down In The Park", and "Cars" with later material such as "My Name Is Ruin" was a creative blend lead by top musicians, and Gary's unique and powerful vocal. One can see how he's matured into an artist that knows just how to present the musical universe that he's developed over 40 years. As much as I loved seeing him on the Telekon tour with his cool sci-fi presentation of the 80s. This night was a thrilling combination of all he has achieved since his debut, and sounded out of this world. As an older fan I am still impressed, and enjoyed the concert immensely.

• Celebrating 40 years of making his unique music, he told the audience this was his 15th appearance at the venue! This appearance was something special not just celebrating his history but seeing him with a new energy that made this one of the best gigs he’s done! The sound was fantastic and so was the light show. The set list was well thought out and would Not disappoint people who became fans at any point in his career. He played tracks I had not heard live before, he played a new track from his upcoming album and he played Joe the Waiter on acoustic guitar, never thought I’d hear that.... the audience loved him and the place was packed and not just with old fans, it was great to see younger fans there. If you get chance to see him on this tour I can thoroughly recommend it, you wont be disappointed and you’ll be in for a treat.

• I am fortunate in that in recent years Numan has played several shows in smaller intimate theatres here in Los Angeles, even while not on tour. Each has been a bit different in both stage and lighting and with the support musicians. I appreciate that at almost 61 Numan keeps innovating. One professional trait that Numan has carried throughout his 40+ years in the business is that he gives 100% all of the time. He is a perfectionist. In the early part of his career he did so at a great financial cost (his staging and lighting shows were over the top financially) but he was adamant his fans would not be disappointed. These days his production costs are more in line, thus he can perform in the smaller theatres. These intimate settings really help one to appreciate that he (and his band) are giving it their all. Try a show, you won't regret it. Using YouTube, familiarize yourself beforehand with a few more songs than "Cars" and I promise you you will enjoy a great show. Numan, still a showman!
