Seal is touring America, playing his first two albums in their entirety. Trevor Horn is the Music Director for the tour, so it makes sense: The Buggles will be the opening act. Geoff Downes is touring in Yes at the same time so he won't be there. As far as I can see, The Buggles have played three concerts in the UK since 2004. Now there will be a US tour with a 25 dates in two months. Incredible.

It would be nice hear a buggles live album

In my own pop universe, Seal would be opening for Buggles)))

I agree. What an oddball pairing!

Well, Trevor Horn did produce the first four Seal albums after singing him to ZTT. He and Seal were a winning team. I'm guessing that Seal thought with Horn on the tour, why not? And thank you, Seal!

Ii can barely wrap my head around that conceit! But kudos of thinking of that. Now I want it.

Huh? Wow...I never listened to Seal so I did not know Horn produced his work. Now I get the connection...makes total sense...thanks for the explanation!
I still listen to both Buggles albums often...desert island for me.

A low quality audience record, a bit cleaned, still, worth listening. I love their Yes-Buggles era records.

Attending this one to see the opening act!!!

could be an early evening. only six songs. https://www.setlist.fm/setlist/buggles/ ... 86acb.html

I know. If they can just throw in "Clean Clean" and "I Love You (Miss Robot)", I would be a happy camper.
