I know PSB's have been to see Morrissey live but I wonder if Mozzer has ever been to see PSB's. I expect not which is a shame as he's missing out if he hasn't been.
Just to clarify what WHY? said, PSB knew beforehand they would lose 1 million pounds before touring, but they did it anyway.
Johnny Marr has said "The Pet Shop Boys are The Smiths you can dance to". Neil Tennant later said "The Smiths are the Pet Shop Boys you can sit down to".
I think the 80s stuff is a little like that: fantastic singles albeit on inconsistent albums. However, I'm a really big fan of their last few releases, which I think are superb albums. Talking about Nightlife, Release and Fundamental. I think perhaps that the singles released for these albums weren't perhaps the brilliant pop songs that they used to release (not to say I don't like them!) but I think nowadays their strength shines through most across a whole album.I like the Pet shop boys a lot but I see them as a single group, never could listen to an entire album
Most of the posts are concentrating on their dance roots but they have written some great 'sad' songs to like 'Jealousy' or 'Only The Wind'.

I think 'Casanova In Hell' is also quite touching in its own way
Would love to see them live at some point, I just don't know anybody who likes them >_<.
October Symphony with Johnny Marr on guitar is their most beautiful song of all time!
