Can confirm, saw at Baltimore Soundstage a few years ago. Unlistenable.

I'll pile on. Saw them at The National about three years ago and it was embarrassing. Not Blonde level cringe but close.
was that supposed to say Blondie?
Yeah, that was a bad show too, was soo looking forward to it and it was a big disappointment.  I'm really surprised the keep getting tours booked, but I guess there are enough people out there to buy tickets
I saw both Blondie and the Furs, separately, at the State Theatre about ten years ago


The Furs were pretty good….but Richard Butler is an asshole…has everyone forgotten that since they were the first or one of foreign bands to play 930 they were supposed to play the 930 30th anniversary party but cancelled at last minute? They have never played an IMP venue again….

Blondie were not very good but the tunes are top…and the drummer Clem Burke is one of the greats… I doubt they ever where a good live band… still I had a great time and chatted with Debbie and Clem afterwards..nice peeps… I have a signed set list somewhere …it’s a weird dynamic cause Chris Stein who is their main songwriter and guitar player has had serious health issues and just sort of sits on stage… after the show he rushed on the tour bus…

It was supposed to say Blondie. Dang autocorrect.

Blondie's "performance" and the general state of Debbie Harry bummed my wife and I out so much, we sleepwalked thru Elvis Costello afterwards at The Anthem.
People forget Debbie Harry is 76! She’s older than Patti Smith!!


She was over 30 when Blondie started in the mid 70s….


You got to make allowances for that


Can I just say Debbie was the most photogenic musician in the 70s… good lord… so beautiful and sexy… it’s hard to find pictures where she doesn’t completely knock me out.. just drop dead gorgeous…in pictures at least maybe my female ideal

Elvis Costello was just too loud…

If they ask for money I will make no such allowances. As a result, I am very unlikely to go see anyone perform at that age.

Buddy Guy is 84 and he's well worth the $ for his live performances
No no he is not playing like he did with Muddy Waters 60 years ago!!!!

well I didn't claim that, but I caught him a few years ago at the State and I've seen very few 80 year olds that can sing and play a guitar with the enthusiasm he has.  Was in the crowd playin his guitar like a 20year old
Well that’s just not good enough bro..sorry you had a good time

I hate most blues music, but blues, jazz and country are much more age-forgiving than rock or hip hop.
