It was one of the best shows in recent memory. (I may have been a bit drunk but I felt so proud.) The rest of the set was as great as the first song.I left the concert with a huge smile on my face. I think during one of the later songs, he pointed to my hair and gave me the thumbs up. Although Michael Score had a different hairstyle, I did not regret my choice. I bobbed my head to the music and sang my lungs out. The band had started to play their hit song "I Ran." The lights dimmed and I heard that familiar guitar riff. I found my seat and waited for the show to start. I was so excited.I arrived at the show, with my hair looking amazing. I was sure others would do the same, but I didn't care. I wanted to look like the singer from Flock of Seagulls. On the day of the show, I spent a few hours getting my hair ready. When I heard that Flock of Seagulls was performing in my city, I bought tickets immediately as I'm a big fan of these cheeky Liverpudlians. I missed most of these bands perform the first time around. Mike Score still occasionally tours using the band name and is currently pursuing a solo career.Īs a big fan of 80's music, I never miss the chance to see an 80's band in concert. The band’s momentum waned and despite the recognition they had earned for making headway in the new wave scene, the band broke up. The band’s next two albums, “Dreams Come true” released in 1985 and “The Light At the End of the World” released ten years later failed to even make it onto the charts. The band’s next album, “The Story of a Young Heart” was moderately successful but ultimately was unable to attract the same attention as A Flock of Seagulls’ first two albums. The lead single from the album, “Wishing (If I Had a Photograph of You)” climbed to number 10 on the UK singles chart and helped the album become a top 20 hit in the UK and the US. A single from the album, "I Ran (So Far Away)" became a runaway success hitting the number one spot in Australia and reaching the top 10 in the United States.ĭespite their popularity abroad, the band had yet to achieve significant success in the UK but that was set to change with the release of their 1983 album “Listen”. The band quickly released their debut album, “A Flock of Seagulls” in 1982, which peaked at number 10 in the US and number 5 in Canada. This success across the pond attracted the attention of Jive Records who signed them to their label. The group released a single called “Telecommunication” which became a dance hit in the US, placing at number 19 on the US dance chart. Once confident enough to perform in front of a crowd, the band started to play in clubs where they quickly gained a following and peaked the interest of record producers. Before performing live the band would practice above Mike’s hairdressing salon. Say 'what' again.The band was formed by brothers Mike and Ali Score with Francis Maudsley and Willie Woo, who was soon replaced by Paul Reynolds, brought in to complete the line up. They speak English in What?ĭescribe what Marsellus Wallace looks like! "What" ain't no country I've ever heard of.
What's the matter? Oh, you were finished! Well, allow me to retort. Please, continue, you were saying something about best intentions. I'm sorry, did I break your concentration? I didn't mean to do that. We got into this thing with the best intentions and I never. I just want you to know how sorry we are that things got so fucked up with us and Mr. And your ass ain't talkin' your way out of this shit. I got yours, Vincent, right? But I didn't get yours. I don't remember askin' you a Goddamn thing! You were saying? You, flock of seagulls, you know why we're here? Why don't you tell my man Vincent where you got the shit hid at?
