(I may have been a bit drunk but I felt so proud.) The rest of the set was as great as the first song.I left the concert with a huge smile on my face. I think during one of the later songs, he pointed to my hair and gave me the thumbs up. I missed most of these bands perform the first time around.Īlthough Michael Score had a different hairstyle, I did not regret my choice. As a big fan of 80's music, I never miss the chance to see an 80's band in concert. Mike Score still occasionally tours using the band name and is currently pursuing a solo career. The band’s momentum waned and despite the recognition they had earned for making headway in the new wave scene, the band broke up.

The band’s next two albums, “Dreams Come true” released in 1985 and “The Light At the End of the World” released ten years later failed to even make it onto the charts. The lead single from the album, “Wishing (If I Had a Photograph of You)” climbed to number 10 on the UK singles chart and helped the album become a top 20 hit in the UK and the US.The band’s next album, “The Story of a Young Heart” was moderately successful but ultimately was unable to attract the same attention as A Flock of Seagulls’ first two albums. A single from the album, 'I Ran (So Far Away)' became a runaway success hitting the number one spot in Australia and reaching the top 10 in the United States.Despite their popularity abroad, the band had yet to achieve significant success in the UK but that was set to change with the release of their 1983 album “Listen”.
