Wow, this is amazing! Hadn't heard this one done by him, certainly not LIVE, and it's so different from the top-40 pop stuff we know him for (Cars). I love this side of Numan MUCH more.
"In A Dark Place" - the synth and drums in this song...kick some serious azz...saw a few interviews with Numan..didnt know he had 5 death threats when he first became popular...one of the reasons he dropped out of site.-The Plastic Waffle www.pwaffle.blogspot.com
I was there @ the sydney capital theatre gig in may of 1980. 29yrs is a long wait. Still sounding like a megawatt-powerhouse. Gary don'y leave it so long next time.
can someone please tell me why the fall was missed off the dvd release of the 2009 concert?
great dvd by the way hope you release the 2011 one as well.
Hello. the first time i saw numan,was on top of the pops U.K singing Are friends electric ? back then called Tubeway Army 1979. For me his best albums would be Replicas, Pure, The Pleasure Principle, Telekon. And of cause Jagged. A numan fan forever.
Hello Numan fans, I need help.......... Which l.p. of G.N. has the sweet prog bass odyssey that appears on season two of 'Im Allan Partridge'?......my knickers are all in a twist!!!
I cant believe I missed his concert, there are things in life you must make the effort to do, I asked one of my mates if he would come along to see Gary Numan and he said who, I said Gary Numan he created the best electrified music ever. And now I am regretful not just going by my self, I hope he comes to Oz again soon, he rocks, I play Cars and Friends are Electric in my Car all the time, even my girls who are age 9,12,14 are now hooked on his music and we are in the Central West Nsw Australia..Go Gary hope you come back soon...
Hello. I'm a fan since 1979. I remember the chilling first time I heard Numan's album called "The pleasure principle" like it was yesterday. The first song is a instrumental called "Airlane". Every time I listen to it (almost every day), I think it does not only sounds like electronic music, but also as the hymn of a new era. Even during his darkest years, this artist has always been the absolute N° 1 to me.
I saw Numan on stage several times in the 80's and the last time in 2006. I missed him this year but I'm looking forward the next opportunity, of course. His come back in the years 2000 was a wonderful surprise. Like a good wine, he gets always better, like he sang in '86, "I'm back and I'm strong"...
I hoped that "The fall" would be edited as a single, but haven't seen anything about it.
Agreed - I could not find this concert on DVD - Gary also appears with Trent Reznor, you can find it on youtube in HD, also not on DVD but still available thank the gods! Just be ure to have a decent speaker setup for your computer and youre good to go.
In 2009 Gary Numan will bring his full UK light show and electrifying live performance to Australia playing songs from his entire career from Replicas, The Pleasure Principle and Telekon through to Pure and Jagged. It will be only his second ever tour of Australia, his first being way back in May 1980, but as anyone who has seen him live recently will attest, it may be 30 years on but he’s got more energy than bands half his age and he is still at his elemental and exploratory best, revitalized and recaptured, and importantly, rewriting his reborn future. “the godfather of electro” BBC “easily rivals the Reznors or Mansons of this world for dark textures and introspective anguish.” Contact Music
Yes, I am electric...
top class, Gary is THE man

Gary's coming back to Australia in May 2011 ..... Adelaide concert confirmed - the rest to follow! :-)
I lucky enough to have tickets to see him with John Foxx on Dec 3rd In London Awsome
Numan in 2010, compared to Numan in 1979-81, no real comparrasion. Either way, he has still got it!
Hello Numan fans, I need help.......... Which l.p. of G.N. has the sweet prog bass odyssey that appears on season two of 'Im Allan Partridge'?......my knickers are all in a twist!!!
it's not a prog bass odyssey, it's Pino Palladino's fretless bass...
i assassin as this had music for chameleons which a p played air bass too.

I have been a Gary Numan Fan since 1979. This was a great gig! He just keeps getting better.

This man is underrated. . Genuine Talent.
