OMD - LIVE AT LIVERPO/L
Andy McLuskey says there are only four
places he feels nerves - Los Angeles,
New York, London and Liverpogl.
No sign of nerves tonight with OMD
brilliant throughout a 90 minute set.
They started with the album, and tour,
title, Crush. This was followed by a
track from the album, The Native
Daughters Of The Golden West. By now
everyone was on their feet - a swaying
mass of humanity enjoying every minute.
"Secret" was dedicated to Rob from West
Kirby. This was followed by tracks from
their six albums.

OMD - LIVE AT LIVERPOOL
Andy introduced So In Love as the
"record that kept us in America for 6
months". Doing well in America breaks
new ground for the group - now one of
the most respected synth groups in the
world.
Andy and Paul are joined on stage by
Malcolm Holmes on Drums and Martin
Cooper on keyboards, sax and bass while
Graham and Neil Weir play horns,
keyboards and sing.
On stage one hit follows another -
Enola Gay, Locomotion, and Maid Of
Orleans each receive rapturous applause

OMD - LIVE AT LIVERPOOL
A corpse couldn't keep still in this
amazing atmosphere! Andy McLuskey
certainly can't as he leaps across the
stage in a frenetic spasmodic way.
Then they're off stage - and the crowd
orders them back on. They obey and
launch into Woman 3, hopefully the new
single. It's followed by Electricity -
and then they're off again - but we
haven't finished with them yet. They
finish with the moody Sealand.
It's been a while since they played
Liverpool but it was well worth waiting
for. by Michael Morris, Whitby
