Erasure, Was (Not Was), Adamski, Electribe 101: Milton Keynes Bowl

THE FINAL date of Erasure's world tour, "The Wild Party", takes place on a windswept grassy slope so the atmosphere's not especially "partylike", but everyone still enthusiastically cheers the first band, Electribe 101, as Billie Ray Martin wanders onstage in her flapping polka-dot flares. They're quite good, the 'Tribe, as they rave through their dance hits but it's broad daylight, and not really the right setting for getting "down".
