I had it in a kind of “Ziggy Stardust “ style all sticking up at an early show and I was trying to work it taller in the mirror. How did that come about?

Also, it didn’t matter what we played because we had no recording contract and were free to play what sounded good to us. As things progressed I realized that some of the songs we were producing were totally original and there was no other band quite like us. When I formed the band I just wanted to be in my own band and write a few songs and have a bit of fun. What were your ambitions – and expectations – when you started the band? It’s now 40 years since A Flock of Seagulls was formed. We caught up with Seagulls’ founder, vocalist and keyboard maestro Mike Score ahead of the show to find out what it means to him to return to the city, and what fans can expect. Their hits included Space Age Love Song, Wishing (I Had a Photograph of You), The More You Live, The More You Love, and the Grammy Award-winning DNA, while the video for their 1982 song I Ran (So Far Away) became one of the most played on MTV.Ī Flock of Seagulls was formed here in Liverpool – and now four decades on from its founding the band is returning to make its first-ever appearance at the Cavern Club. With their distinctive look and synth pop sound, A Flock of Seagulls were one of the most recognisable and successful bands of the early 1980s.
