I was 17 or so when it came out, and couldn’t stop listening it over and over, on a cassette deck. And it’s still there, 40+ years later, and it still has the same effect on me. Gary’s only 4 years older than I am, and he’s still on stage, performing! Amazing!
When i first saw him in 79/80 the floorboards vibrated it was a thunderous show and he actually blew the power out and we were in the dark for 15mins till they fixed it. Can never forget Paul Gardiner(RIP Paul) only 6ft from me, the way he stood and played was excellent, he had a real look to him. All songs were from Replicas and TPP. Seen him again for the TPP Tour, which was great to hear the whole album live, yet the 79/80 show i witnessed was a beauty, perhaps the bleak, cold, android sound live and those great songs suited those times following after the Punk era. We really staggered out of there and were stunned, but then again, we all took 3 tiny little dots that were so potent.
I remember Gary early 80s. I wasn't a numanoid like some of my mates but I remember his image was like an" alien being "and he moved quite robotic if at all in that period.
Sounds ad good today and I wasn't even a GN fan but love Bowie. Can anyone else confirm that when Garry went on Top of The Pops Garry meet his hero and David had nothing to do with him af he was selling more records than him? Sorry if this is old news for GN fans but it is also known that he was there when Bowie arrived back in UK from Germany at Victoria Station
Heard you first time in 79. I know there would be no nin, Manson, so on so on.....without you Mr. Numan. Maybe just me but when I see a parent (who was totally bad ass to begin with) copy his children's style................. No disrespect, just would be cool if you turned back in to an android.
100% the truth. going to wembly saturday. my first gig ever back in the "farewell" era then. my last numan gig this saturday. the old stuff is genius. after that... dull.
Honestly haven't seen him. Best for him (he is an autism hero 100+%)...........(my oldest son has asbergers) and maybe it's just me being an old bastard but yeah.........you were the legend as an android.
What, you mean like the rolling stones, aerosmith, and every other great band that came from the past ? Stupid comment, if you don't like his music, what the hell are you doing here ? Tosser..
Everyone who realize that there's nothing but shit being shoved in your gob nowadays. This is original and everything you hear now is nothing but retreaded versions of music like this.
Excellent gig. Brilliant band. God bless Gaz ✨
Just love Gary Numan. How unique this sound was when originally released...and it's aged well!

The one and only the great Gary Numan love this guy
Great songs always stand the test of time, this is no exception, fantastic. 🤟
Gary's still got the amazing stage set up
Brilliant 👏 off to Birmingham concert meet and greet today.. thanks for sharing 👍
It still sounds fresh & banging. 😁
We loved this. We are off to see this all again at Wembley.
Nice one👍
I think people who saw him first time around should all be given free tickets to see him again!

Sounds fantastic live, great night at Brighton :)
Was such a great night.

He looked 50 when I was a kid in the early 80’s ... how old could this musical genius be now ?
March 8th 1958

Gary’s hair just goes from strength to strength.
He’s got more now than he had 40 years ago 🤔
It's a wig!
My Girl Friend's got an electric friend.
good head of hair for his age
Are Fiends Dyslexic?
Are ‘Friends’ Electric?, no some of them are Diesel, Gas, Solar and Wind. Why do you ask?
OTT RUG.

You would think he’d have some new songs by now. It’s only been 43 yrs !
He does. This isn't the entire gig you know.
He has over 40 albums, i suggest you get out more often..
Dumbest comment I have heard in a long time. This entire tour is promoting his NEW album Intruder!!!
@@quintinjohnson3742 Well he needs to do some more promoting then. I’ve never heard any of his music since the late 70s.
Numan when he was interesting,then he went.................
Or,as a music mag asked at the time of AFE release,
"Are Trends Eclectic"?
Was all the sheep 🐑 in there having had their dips because twiggy told them to?😅🤣😂😂😂
Talk about living in the past! Who goes to see this guff?
Everything lives in the past, the present is too fleeting to grasp, this comment is now an echo in time.
Guff lovers!
He is a silly old fart . . .

People who have taste and a mind of their own . Today is shit compared to then.
Sounds terrible should have stayed in in past from whence he came
Mr Grumpy??
