Men Without Hats has taken the place of Go West. Saw MWH open for Icehouse years ago....fun show. Nice addition to the 09 tour.

MWH alone would be enough to make me go see this -- as long as they don't sound anything like their latest album. What a piece of crap.

Siouxsie or The Bunnymen would not be caught dead playing on the same stage with Wang Chung or Go West LOL![:D] so forget them. Bands like Siouxsie and The Bunnymen had careers as early as the 70's through today. These other has-beens are period pieces.

Not sure if you're kidding Yachtingtype. But I agree.
Huge fan of the hatless. Been waiting for word on their inclusion...
We got the message and if the message is clear...
I'm not interested in going either.

major letdown, especially if one catches on of those nights were not even Berlin are performing - replacing Men Without Hats with Cutting Crew, sorry, simply a no-no for me...

Tbone and I enjoyed the Salt Lake City show. I'll leave the detailed review to him, but, in a nutshell, Missing Persons were exactly that, it was nice to see Cutting Crew for no other reason that the history factor, and Wang Chung and ABC were fantastic. The sets were short, no encores, but all put on a good show nonetheless.

For $37 bucks...I've decided to purchase a ticket to this show for Tonights stop here in Vegas. Im looking forward to seeing ABC and Wang Chung the most. Does anyone know: do they do "To Live & Die IN L.A"? (my favorite WC song).

I'll let you all know how Martin and all sound Sun. The price was right, not like a year or so back, when this tour came to the Aladdin and you had to pay something like $100+Plus for tix? thats ridiculous IMHO. Under $40 bucks is PERFECT for this type of show(unless they brought in a big name).

They are playing "To Live And Die In LA" on this tour. Great song, and a fantastic soundtrack. Their playing "Let's Go" made my night though. That has always been my favorite song of theirs, simply due to the energy of it, and it never letting up. Enjoy!

Caught the show in NYC and thought it was very good.

I was very surprised by the Cutting Crew. I thought they were very good, as was Wang Chung. I didn't expect much from either, and came away very impressed.

Berlin and ABC just rocked.

It is a shame Regeneration is not promoted very well. It did look pretty crowded at Irving Plaza, and not as embarrassing as the turn out last year at Jones Beach, but considering they had to move from a larger venue at pretty much the last minute, it was disappointing.

Having Heaven 17 drop out probably played some part into the low turn out, but the other bands put on a great show and were well worth seeing.
