When those drums kick in you know immediately who it is! That was such a unique signature sound. I wish so much that he had stayed with the Ants a little longer, there was no one out there doing what they were doing. Alas, he's a true artist and gets bored easily, especially with the bipolar and I understand that. Artists want to grow and the audience wants to freeze them in place. I'm glad he's having a measure of success now, I'd love to see him perform. I hope he makes it into the Rock Hall of Fame.

I think the older people had to realize that in the UK Adam and the Ants had a fanbase from toddlers to people in their 90's. In the UK at big concerts after the break out UK television performance on Top of the Pops singing Dog Eat Dog in 1981 the whole country went bonkers parents would bring their kids grandparents everyone was ballistic for this band with a huge demographic you must realize this was among the FIRST performances in the USA so maybe the older folks weren't dialed in yet
