Soft Cell, signed Stevo Pearce's Some Bizarre label (on which DM released 'Photographic'), were the support act. While they might have been bigger than DM in most parts of the UK, the fact that they played at DM's home ground Crocs meant that DM were the main bill. In the audience were also present members of Spandau Ballet, Ultravox and Visage. Soft Cell's performance when miserably wrong. An intoxicated and drugged Marc could not hear what he was singing because there was something wrong with the system, and the microphone fell out repeatedly. Furthermore, the backing tapes were not as they should be. The musicians and other audience members would laugh at them and throw coins. Rusty Egan of Visage recommended Stevo to drop Soft Cell from Some Bizarre Records. | |||
