Review from the show at The Embassy Theatre, Skegness:
Duran Duran numbers were generally handled by fellow frontman, Jason Ashton. He loves what he does, and it shines through his entire performance. As well as performing Planet Earth, Girls on Film and Rio, Ashton delivered belting performances of two of Ultravox’s greatest hits Dancing With Tears in My Eyes and, of course, Vienna. His performance of Vienna was a controlled, emotive cry from the heart and left the audience hanging on every note. It was a pleasure to see and hear it performed so well.
“Calling Planet Earth” – The ultimate 80s experience – not to be missed
The show that defines a decade. A night filled with unforgettable hits from iconic artists like Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, Depeche Mode, Ultravox, Eurythmics, Culture Club, ABC, Japan, OMD, Tears for Fears and more. An incredible live band with stunning arrangements and captivating vocals.
