My first ever concert was Ultravox at Sheffield City Hall in 1983 (I think) Midge Ure left the stage saying he'd see us next year!. 25 years later and its a welcome return to Sheffield. I Cant wait..!.

At least this should send The Killers scurrying back to Vegas (hopefully never to be seen again), once the young generation see where all their ideas came from. Welcome back guys.

I'm so happy that Warren's back!!! The heart of the band disappeared the day he left. It's 23 years since the last time I saw the boys in concert, I suppose I can wait another 6 months, just!!!
