Magazine The Academy Glasgow 16th February 2009

 

Another night on the brief Magazine comeback tour. On this night in 2009 they were on stage in Glasgow. I saw them in London on the tour.... I loved them, Gunta hated them. I was amused that for this night only, the leather jackets that I was used to at gigs were replaced by trench coats.... we had crossed over into post punk's manor!

I loved them for the fact that they used Dave Formula's keyboards to create massive sounds that melded punk and prog. Gunta hated the idea of Howard playing chess against himself on stage.... she had a point!

But in the unlikely event that you find yourself on this page and are unfamiliar with the music of Magazine, give 'Real Life' a spin in old money or at least a stream (in the new!). You will not be disappointed I promise you.
