Yet another brilliant performance by Colin Hay and the band. Hope it’s not another 17 years until they return

Just great to have finally seen Colin/Men At Work, having loved them since 1983. A very talented band, led by a genius ☺️🎼

I took a day off work to go and see 'Men At Work' - at work at Manchester Academy on Thursday. It's the first time they've played in the UK since 1983 and I missed that gig! There's just one original member but it's the main man Colin Hay. They were terrific in an intimate venue on the University Student Union campus. The Lene Lovich band supported! did you know that her Lucky numbers 1? It was my first time at that venue and the sat nav took me straight there! I had a bit of difficulty finding a car park but once in the venue it was easy enough. I like merchandise but there was none, so just photos and my ticket stub for memories. The music is key at the end of the day and that was spot on!

Took me dad. It’s the first time he has been out since a long period of illness. He used to play Business As Usual to us as kids and we all have a vinyl copy at home - it is comfortably one of my top five to listen to out of over 500. Was lovely to hear it live and the experience still left me thinking about Australia even though I was in Manchester in the presence of a great Scottish accent, and a band of South American’s. The gig was a lot of fun and was musically excellent. Got home near 1am last night and was up at 8am this morning - my dad was in the kitchen listening to ‘Be Good Jonny’. Thanks for the chance to see you perform and for cheering my dad up.
