It’s been a long time since I saw them live in Sydney but when they toured in Australia early 80’s they were the backup band for Flowers- Icehouse. That was at the Capitol theatre, but when they were touring the UK and Europe it was Simple Minds and Flowers-Icehouse as backup. RESPECT for one of my all time favourite band(s).
I remembered seeing the minds at Birmingham ,lN.E.C.....street fighting years tour..this song is timeless....shows how ahead of their time they where back then..... ❤️.come back Mickey Mac 🙏
Cant remember if i was 16/17.............no care in the world when i was at afriends house smoking stuff and drinking stuff and i listeng to this 4 the first time.....still sming...still listening...always listening love the minds.
@@spud74 I only went Man Shitty ground for outdoor gigs that year, it was hard being a Utd fan but brilliant gig. Shame Jim had his breakdown after the tour as they would have still been up there at the top to this day I think.
Charlie is always good. Luckily there is still 1 member who tries to keep the original vibes of the '80's. Jim has long since given up and plays on automatic pilot. For me it is no longer worth to go and see them live. Especially with that terrible version of "speed your love to me". For my their best song ever made.
