| Gary Numan, Nightmare Air
Saw Gary Numan with Nightmare Air opening for him at Irving Plaza in NYC. | | 1 |  | Gary Numan Savage (Songs from a Broken World)
I hate to admit it, but the only song I really knew by Numan was "Cars", which is OK but not a song I loved. He and his band are great live, though. His newer material is dark, very gothic, very NIN, except that I like Numan much better. Definitely not an '80s nostalgia act. Listened to the latest album, "Savage" yesterday to prep for the show, and liked it a lot. | | 2 |  | Nightmare Air Fade Out
A Los Angeles 3-piece alternapop band with a female lead singer. They were also really good. | |

09.23.18 | Numan is one of those artists my wife was much more familiar with than I was. I agreed to go along because Nightmare Air's sound interested me. I enjoyed Nightmare Air, and was way more impressed by Numan than I expected to be. Not the most comfortable club, but you can't have everything, I guess. | DadKungFu
09.23.18 | This was one of those shows I briefly considered going to but decided against. Kind of regretting it now | Divaman
09.23.18 | I wouldn't have gone except that my wife really wanted to, but I'm glad I did. For anyone interested, there's a full write-up on my blog at longislandmusicguy.blogspot.com. | widowslaugh123

09.25.18 | His new albums are getting good reviews. He's in the middle of a late career revival. But I'm the worst kind of fan, I only want to hear his early stuff. I know it's technically The Tubeway Army, but I'm waiting for Numan to tour the 40th anniversary of Replicas--fingers crossed! | Divaman
09.25.18 | I'm waiting for little Persia Numan's first album. Only half kidding. |
