Honeymoon Suite, A Flock of Seagulls, Men Without Hats and Spoons are performing their massive hits at the PMC.

“This tour is exciting for us in so many ways,” said Gord Deppe of Spoons. “It's the first time we've toured the country from coast to coast in decades, performing some places we haven't been to since the 80s. On top of that, I get to play with my own group, Spoons, as well as with my new bandmates, A Flock of Seagulls.”

Honeymoon Suite lit Canadian radio on fire in the 80s with hits including ‘Stay in the Light,’ ‘New Girl Now,’ ‘Feel it Again,’ ‘Wave Babies,’ and ‘Burning in Love.’

England’s A Flock of Seagulls is led by singer Mike Score. The Grammy Award-winning new wave act had massive hits like ‘I Ran (So Far Away)’ and ‘Space Age Love Song.’

Bringing their iconic 80s pop songs are Men Without Hat’s ‘The Safety Dance’ and ‘Pop Goes the World!’ The band’s Ivan Doroschuk was recently inducted into the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame.

Formed in 1980, Spoons was an intrepid young band from Burlington that helped define the sound of Canadian 80s pop. Their album Arias & Symphonies was named one of the 20 Most Influential Albums of the 80s by The Chart Magazine. They have memorable hits such as ‘Romantic Traffic,’ ‘Old Emotions,’ and ‘Nova Heart.’ 

Tickets are available at the PMC’s website.
