Before Bill Graham's tragic death in a helicopter crash, he created one of the best concert venues in the country here in the Bay Area, which is named Shoreline Pavillion.
They used to offer season passes for blocks of shows of various genres at Shoreline. One year there was a band named Erasure on my season pass. Although I was a big fan of Depeche Mode, I really hadn't listened much to Erasure, other than hearing the song, "Oh, L'amour" on the radio.
They blew my mind...Andy Bell was carried out by several vamping campy guys in angel like costumes. From there on, the audience danced the night away. It was totally crazy fun.
Musically, I prefer Depeche Mode, but the Erasure concert was one wild night that I will never forget.
