OMD change NYC venue for March 8 show

The OMD show that I was so excited about a couple of weeks ago has just dropped a couple of notches on the happiness meter. The March 8 show has been moved from Webster Hall to the interminable Terminal 5. Judging by the comments over at Brooklyn Vegan I'm not the only one who is disappointed.

OMD to tour US for first time in over 20 years

Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, who have a surprisingly excellent new album out (History of Modern), have announced their first full North American tour since 1988. I still fondly recall enjoying a few shows of theirs back in the day - especially the first time at the Savoy, here in NY, in support of the Architecture & Morality album, in 1982. Always a very enjoyable live experience - and surprisingly loud too!
