Yes! And wasn't "Not Just a Sex Machine" even more fab? I'm sold on the next release, too. There is an audio tape of the Sparks show from Saturday, but it's the regular awful audience recording type. I saw a sign advising us that the show would be televised, but I'm sure it's only for the Go-gos. Tant pis.
A group of Sparks fans from the e-Mael list gathered and most of them were glad that even though the audience seemed mostly clueless about the support act (Sparks) at least the non-fans weren't rude. We discussed how different it would've been for a support act at a Morrissey show (at least in the US).
Did you see Sparks at the Keyclub last November? I had a ticket but arrived very late -- right at the end. Still went to the signing and met the Maels.
