ABC, Naked Eyes, Human League, Dead Or Alive, Flock Of Seagulls Join Most '80s Tour Ever
M83's Saturday = Youth, especially the John Hughes-y "Graveyard Girl" video, has the '80s very much at the front of our minds. But, like, the '80s when it was the '80s. Milking nostalgia in a far wrinklier way, this summer's Regeneration Tour pairs together beyond-their-prime '80s icons the Human League, Belinda Carlisle, ABC, Dead Or Alive, A Flock of Seagulls, and Naked Eyes for a month-long tour (which opens 8/1 in Phoenix). Billboard uses the word "inaugural," which makes it sound like it's the first in a series of shows. If that's the case, this should get more awkward with each passing year... - Source
