saw human league this past summer with ABC and it sucked. Sorry, human league did all - I mean all - of their crappy top 40 songs that bored the hell out of me and did none of their good ones, played to a very mainstream audience in a mainstream place, i wanted to walk out...heard great things about their shows at smaller venues in the recent past so good luck....man it was a horrible show, I do not want to hear Mirror Man, I'd rather hear Almost Medieval if ya get my drift, then they danced on stage in a corny way

then ABC, the only remaining original member is the lead, the rest were some guys who looked like they didnt fit in at all and annoyed me (maybe born in 1983, etc)

Of course heaven 17 never ever crosses the ocean, whether that's legal issues or not, but I expect to never see them in my lifetime....so have fun and I hope you enjoy the show.

I'm a big fan of ABC -- mainly that they luckily survived several different album approaches -- Lexicon of Love is completely different from Beauty Stab, which is different from Zillionaire and subsequent albums. Although none of their albums is quite right, I admire their work. Out of the Duran/Spandau period, Martin Fry is an interesting alternative.

As for Heaven 17, I'd jump at the chance to see the other side of the Human League. They represent a sound of early synth New Wave that would be a trip to experience live.
