Lost 80’s Live
Place Bell
September 28, 2018

80’s pop nostalgia has never been more in demand — while Simple Minds played a long sold-out show at MTelus on Friday, the Lost 80’s Live tour took over Laval’s Place Bell the same night with a bill including Wang Chung, A Flock of Seagulls, Men Without Hats, Naked Eyes, Farrington and Man (featuring the original singers from When in Rome UK), Animotion and Nu Shooz.

That’s a lot of acts for one night, and reports from the show were rather mixed, with most singling out Wang Chung as the only band that truly recaptured their 80’s glory.


Below you can check out photos from the night by Eva Blue, along with some classic videos from the lineup. For all upcoming tour dates and individual show lineups, visit the official Lost 80’s Live site.
