Peter Murphy presents the Mr. Moonlight Tour, celebrating 35 years of Bauhaus, playing solely Bauhaus material. The tour began early this year on South America, then The United States, following by Australia, then the U.S. again, then Europe, and at the moment the tour is going around United States again, with Ours from NY, as a special guest.
The opening band, Ours, a rock band from New York played for like 40 minutes, performing old, and new material. The show was great. Once they left the stage, a preview of Lions, Peter Murphy’ coming album, was presented.
Light was weak, the crowd was quiet, and Peter Murphy came to stage. They began the show playing King Volcano, a song that almost everyone was waiting for, because everyone was singing along.
A dark ambient, with warm light colors, the show was decorated for almost two hours of Peter Murphy. The band performed many Bauhaus classics, bringing the memories back to the crowd.
