, along with another drummer, two keyboardists, guitar and bass support, a young woman on sax who looks like she could be Mackay’s daughter, and three side singers positioned right next to Ferry. The kickoff number “Re-make/Re-model,” a tune most in attendance surely did not know, and one with semi-nonsensical lyrics that they surely could not follow, earned its pimp spot as Side 1/Track 1 of the first self-titled Roxy Music album in 1972, back when the then-sextet included “technical advisor”. Of course they opened with their first song! How clever! How obnoxious! What eccentric little English eggheads these are! They must be very impressed with themselves.
Ferry, Mackay, and Manzanera are pretty spry old-timers, clearly enjoy each other’s company and found each others’ performances entertaining, and really, what more can we ask from our distinguished rock veterans?
