Stand & Deliver

On the 30th of November I went and saw Adam Ant, The Good The Mad & The Lovely Posse. For anyone that doesn't know who Adam Ant is, he was a big pop/new wave star back in the 80's. His original band were called Adam and The Ants, known for songs such as Stand and Deliver, Prince Charming, Ant Music and Kings of the Wild Frontier.



Adam was known for his unique and iconic sense of style. His look was hugely influence by classical romantic looks and 16th century piratism, blended with a new wave/punk twist. I have always been in love with Adam, his music is so different from anything else, and its the same with how he dresses.
 
When I saw Adam last month he had this amazingly cool and sexy all girl band named Georgie Girl And Her Poussez Posse. The lead singer Georgina Baillie, had some of the most amazing stage outfits I have seen a a gig. Georgina is also backing vocalist for Adam's band too. Through out the night she probably changed into 6 outfits. And every one of them were as gorgeous as the next. She has a rockabilly, punk/ 50's edgy look. Most of her outfits consisted of PVC bralets and PVC pencil skirts.







 
 
Considering that Adam is now in his 50s. I think it is wonderful that he still touring and releasing new music. I was so close to him at the gig, I could have lent over and touched him, if there wasn't a barrier and big security guards. One of my favourite gigs so far. He has a new album out soon which I cannot wait to get my hands on.
 
Adam Ant, I love you.
