Quote from http://www.blancmange.co.uk/page/2 "The Maiden Aunts of electronic music return to the stage this November to perform the whole of their debut album Happy Families live for the first time, with the songs which won popular acclaim three decades ago given a 21st century spin. Specially re-recorded by Blancmange – and rechristened Happy Families, Too… – the new recording will be on sale exclusively at tour venues. Neil refers to the new versions as an “interpretation”. “I just wanted to approach the songs using today’s technology,” he says. “Every time we perform it’s a different interpretation. So rather than just dust off the old songs, I wanted to bring something fresh to the project and make it a contemporary reworking rather than an exact imitation.” Continuing health issues mean Stephen is unable to join Neil on the tour. However, he will be joined by guitarist David Rhodes, who performed on the original album, and sound engineer Adam Fuest, who will manipulate the mix. “The intention is to do something a bit like Roxy Music did with Brian Eno processing sounds live during a performance,” says Neil. “It might be less predictable, but I like the chance element – the feeling I’m moving forward creatively.” The tour begins on 3 November in Clitheroe, Lancashire, finishing in London and Cardiff on 15th & 16th. Tickets are on sale now from all major outlets priced between £16 and £22.50."

"After postponing the May shows (more news soon) we wanted to do something positive so here’s a brand new Blancmange album, Waiting Room (Volume 1), which is now available to download. Every time there's a new Blancmange album, some tracks written in the sessions don't make it onto the finished record for all sorts of reasons. Usually it's because they don't fit the direction of the record although sometimes we can't remember why a song didn't go on there. This is a selection of tracks that were written and recorded over the last 3 years. There are more and Neil is writing fresh material all the time so rather cheekily we've named this Volume 1 in the hope that you might like to hear others over the next few years. In the meantime, these songs seem to resonate with these unprecedented times - certain phrases and atmospheres; song titles and even the flow of the record to the final track, '3 Minutes’."
