Gary Numan touring Australia in March

Numanoids, the wait is finally over. The godfather of electro, Gary Numan, will be bringing his full UK light show and electrifying live performance to Australia playing songs from his entire career from Replicas, The Pleasure Principle and Telekon through to Pure and Jagged.

It will be only his second ever tour of Australia, his first being way back in May 1980, but as anyone who has seen him live recently will attest, it may be 30 years on but he's got more energy than bands half his age and he is still at his elemental and exploratory best, revitalised and recaptured, and importantly, rewriting his reborn future.

Earlier this year Numan celebrated his 30th year in music, marking the occassion by releasing a re-issue of pioneering electronic album Replicas, which features for the first time a complete earlier version of the Replicas album recorded in late 1978 and January 1979, along with the original B-sides and further out-takes, adding up to 27 tracks across the two CDs.

His pioneering sounds are still felt today inspiring Prodigy, Nine Inch Nails and Smashing Pumpkins, as well as being sampled by artists as diverse as Basement Jaxx, Armand Van Helden and even the Sugababes. Fans of The Mighty Boosh may even have seen a few of his cameo appearances on the show.
