Shit. Now I gotta go buy some music. I think the last Numan disc I bought was Hybrid. And I bought it on disc.

The Numan show was spectacular. Think it was the Exile tour. And he played something hot off Exile to open the show and scared the shit out of everyone who came to see him do "Cars." Then he did a rocking rendition of Cars to get it out of the way and the audience fuckin' loved him for it. Then he dropped right back into something heavy from Exile and all the yuppies who came to see "cars" stuck around for two encores.

A month later I mixed Modern English. They refused to play "Stop the World" until the 2nd encore, by which point there were six people in the audience.
