The Psychedelic Furs (Live) 30 October 2018

Last night I had a great time with my friend 

Sean watching The Psychedelic Furs perform a 

set of classic songs that have aged extremely well.

34 years after I was entranced by the video for 

"The Ghost In You" I finally got to hear the song 

performed live with all of Richard Butler's signature

gestures and angular body language firmly in check. 

Thanks for a great show, P Furs... 

and thanks for all the years of great songs.

Completion of characters

Development of background spaces

Development of floating objects

and repeated atomic medallion graphics
