…which accounts for way more than half his total output.
And people say John Foxx isn't a current artist?? mad

Morning Glory 2 votes
Uptown/Downtown 2 votes
Golden Green 2 votes
I Want To Be a Machine 2 votes

5 of the 8 tracks are from the last 10 years of John's output.
An interesting summary - but sadly not entirely representative of how the votes have been coming in to me. If you want your vote to count (and you're on the Metamatic News E-Mailing list), then drop me a note of the five songs you'd like John and Louis to perform at the 'T-Shirt' gig later this year. wink

That's a shame! As much as I love John's classic material, I was really glad to see that people are voting (on here at least) for the new stuff. I fully understand the inclusion of Ultravox! material; only a few songs have ever been performed and the re-issues have renewed many peoples interest.

I just meant that the songs themselves weren't necessarily the ones which were proving to be the most popular. wink

Did John & Louis made a decision where they want to play this show?

Hopefully it will be in London... wink

Yes, it will be in London - and it's likely to be towards the end of the year.

I am surprised how easily I found making this list, or maybe I will regret it in the morning. I took: songs I love, ones which I don't remember hearing live, ones that are pre-Louis because with Louis they'll presumably sound like the album versions. Then I just crossed out the ones I didn't think would work. This left 8 songs. A few seconds later I had these five:

When You Walk Through Me
You Were There
Twilight's Last Gleaming
A Kind Of Wave
Morning Glory

More haste, perhaps.
