The
band have just released their new album called ' Other People's songs'
which features lots of classic cover versions
including Solsbury Hill, Everybody's gotta learn sometime, Can't help
falling in Love.
Now the band are on tour. Clearly the 2000’s
are agreeing with Vince and Andy.
Having become reluctant to tour towards the end of the '90s, even
setting up shows where he could play 'virtually' from his garden shed,
Vince is now keen to get out on the road.
The experiences of dodging typhoons while visiting off-the-regular-schedule
parts of the world in 1999 (with Bowie and No Doubt as fellow travellers
in South East Asia, South Africa and South America) have not daunted
Erasure.
For the first time this century
they're taking their wildly rhapsodic show on the road, this time
in Edwardian costume, to honour the era when the gramophone was
invented, with a gradual change of wardrobe up to the present day.
Back bolder than history, Erasure have returned to cover themselves
in their own, and a bit of other people's glory.
"I feel a lot better about myself generally in life,"
says Vince. "I feel more positive, lots of interesting things
are going on, so I think if you've got a good spirit, then touring
isn't as bad. I've been looking at the dates and thinking, that's
going to be quite exciting!"
"I just feel like I need to be out there because
I'm a performer and I really miss it," concludes Andy. "I
threatened to do 'Taboo', the show, so they said 'Don't do that,
do this'. And it'll stop me doing karaoke in Peterborough."
You could get to meet the boys when they come to the Dome on Wednesday
28th May all you have to do is answer this question.
* What was the name of the EP which Erasure released
of ABBA tunes?
