That's it really. Reviving my youth, so many memories, all on vinyl. Playing on Sonos now though - wouldn't have the dexterity or patience to faff with a fluffy stylus. Anyone else playing stuff?

How does it feel....

Go for it i guess i'm around the same age as you. I looooved New Order growing up and the Pet Shop Boys. Takes me way back in a happy way Grin

I go for a dance with my mates once a month or so to a local club which plays this kind of music. I danced to Duran Duran last time but yes New Order, Pet Shop Boys, Erasure, all sorts. It's great fun.

Funny you should say this. A friend of a friend died recently and was listening to these two bands, his favourite, when he went (surrounded by friends). Sorry to be morbid but it's quite touching that the love is being passed on...

YANBU! :)

Snooks1971 · 07/10/2017 22:47

Thanks all! Sonos has come to a halt because kids are finally in bed!
orange that's not morbid, it's lovely Smile and I agree about passing the love on
Erasure are cracking brilliant

All I need is to hear a song by the Cure and I'm 17 again Grin

But WHERE did the last 30 years go? I can't believe that it's been that long since the golden age 80s.

Yes to all of the above! They don't make them like that anymore Sad

I've been playing Tears for Fears in the car... 'Don't take my heart don't break my heart don't don't don't throw it away' 🎤

GrimDamnFanjo · 08/10/2017 10:49

Just you wait till I get you home!

CrystalQueen · 08/10/2017 10:53

Was gutted that the tickets for Erasure gig in our town sold out instantaneously.

Why do people post threads like this? WHY would it be unreasonable to play any type of music? Confused
