Why see Adam Ant?
Antmusic 2024 Tour!
Eccentric musician and ultimate modern dandy Adam Ant was one of the 1980s' most iconic music artists, with ten top ten hits between 1980 and 1983. Initially, he performed as the lead vocalist in his post-punk band, Adam and the Ants, before continuing as a solo artist. Catch him live in 2024 as he heads to the US shore, the first time in five years on the 'ANTMUSIC' tour!
New wave band The English Beat will be joining the tour as support. So dig out your best highwayman-meets-new-romantic gear, touch up your face paint, and get yourself out into the night and into the concert hall.

Adam Ant starts "Friend or Foe" tour in Milwaukee
Friend or Foe set, then:
Dog Eat Dog-Kick-Vive Le Rock-Zerox-CarTrouble-Ants Invasion-Ant Music-Prince Charming-Strip-Beat My Guest-Kings of the Wild Frontier-Fall-In-Stand and Deliver
Encore: Press Darlings-Red Scab-Physical
Excluding the ballad "Wonderful" (and a few 'Prince Charming' charmers) these are likely ALL the songs a fan could dream of hearing, especially in one standing. Hearing all the "F.O.F" songs all at once was disorienting; I hadn't spun both sides for decades. Assessment: many lyrics were just silly & redundant. I forgive him because FOF contains some gems.
On to performance.
Adam seemed tired. Maybe it was a first show thing; gotta work the bugs out. A few vocal cues missed, but the band powered right through.
I wish I'd seen the "Kings of" tour, to compare notes.
Adam did some signature dance moves, with some appreciated banter interspersed. All that was lacking was vocal energy & clarity as a whole.
So many gold nuggets, overall. All things considered, 4 stars ... Read more
