Billy Idol at Brixton 31.7.08

Billy Idol on a greatest hits tour. Should be fun. And it certainly was! As you can see from the set list below he did exactly what was billed. Greatest hits. White Wedding was played with an acoustic intro before going straight into a full electric version and other classics such as Rebel Yell and set closer Mony Mony were elongated with superb guitar riffing by poser Steve Stephens. Despite the years, Mr Broad is looking pretty good and has had the Fabregas treatment on his chest! The two new songs from his latest hits album Idolise were played with ‘John Wayne’ sounding especially good. Must look to invest into that album with the bonus DVD of the videos. Music made for the 80s MTV generation indeed!

Set – Cradle Of Love / Dancing With Myself / Flesh For Fantasy / White Wedding / John Wayne / New Future Weapon / To Be A Lover / Sweet Sixteen / World Coming Down / Eyes Without A Face / Ready Steady Go / Blue Highway / LA Woman / Rebel Yell ///// Hot In The City / Speed / Mony Mony
