Clearly, this evening was to be a taster of the 55 selected tracks, otherwise we would be watching them for in excess of four and a half hours, which some might say, is heading into Laurie Anderson territory. Tonight in the Brighton Centre we are subject to no less than 25 memorable tunes in support of the famed synthpop’s ‘Smash: The Singles 1985–2020’ compilation album, which dropped on 16th June and went crashing into the UK Albums Chart at number four, which is highly commendable for a 55 song triple CD/six vinyl release.

My appointment with the three-time Brit Award winners and six-time Grammy nominees, the Pet Shop Boys was well overdue, having last witnessed them performing live 4370 days ago, which equates to almost 12 years.
