    How this band did not make it big time remains a total mystery. Great pop/rock albums & singles plus awesome to watch live .

    Man, good to see the duo of Roland and Curt of "Tears for Fears" here. And the "Adventures" are fantastic British band with great music's of the 80s. Love it

    'When my heart was young'...was playing in my car when I came across a triple fatal car crash, only to find 2 of my friends were dead in one of the cars...it'll always be their song!

    'Broken Land' from '88 probably my favourite record of all time. Saw them support Fleetwood Mac at the time!

    I sadly only caught the last few numbers of the Adventures on this Tour but what I saw made me get into them and I became a fan and caught them again in 1988, NewcastCity Hall when they headlined.

    I watched The Adventures support Tears for Fears back in '85 on their "Big Chair" tour. Theodore and Friends is a great album and the band played and sounded so good at Bristol Colston Hall on their support slot. I'd recorded this off the TV back in the day . . . it's great footage of both bands on the tour.
