Man with a hat @ Best Buy Theater- 9/23 (photo by Chris Cordani)
"1980s Electro-pop gods Human League wrapped up their 2011 US tour with a show at New York's Best Buy Theater on September 23, 2011. It's been a decade since I've seen them in concert and tonight's show was worth the wait. The show began with a set from fellow 1980s gods Men Without Hats (more to come, so stay tuned). Human League took the stage around 9:30 pm and played for about an hour and a half. For me, it was the dream set list. Every hit was played including their classics "Don't You Want Me," "Heart Like A Wheel," "(Keep Feeling) Fascination," "Love Action," "Human," "Mirror Man," and "Being Boiled.""Men Without Hats and The Human League brought the 80s back to Best Buy Theater in NYC last night (9/23). It was the Human League's last US show for now, but Men Without Hats don't go back to Canada before they headline a show at Mexicali Live in NJ on Saturday night. Tickets are still on sale.

this is serious stuff, and i would appreciate it if commenters took this seriously. i was a victim of the nitrous when some dude shoved a balloon in my face, which resulted in a really bad allergic reaction. i passed out, and next thing i remember was waking up at a lana del ray with equally confused concert-goers. it was one of the worst nights of my life
