It's a good time to be a Thompson Twins fan.
Frontman Tom Bailey is touring with some other terrific 80's acts (including Howard Jones and Ultra Vox's Midge Ure) on the Retro Futura Tour. And a Thompson Twins 2-disc set Remixes and Rarities is due to be released in September.
As if that wasn't enough, he sat in with The Roots on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon this evening...
Please... please... please... let Tom be inspired to release some new Thompson Twins material after the tour is over. And then tour again.
And again.

damn i missed it 🙁
I missed that Tonight Show, so I jumped out to my Hulu last night and watched it (Episode 112 on 8/20/2014 for those wanting to know exact details)
I would be up to hear new music from Tom. Also, it would be cool to have Alannah and Joe pop up on stage during one of the Retro Futura dates for a song or two.
According to Wikipedia, Joe lives & works in LA so if the tour swings past his way wouldn’t it be awesome for him to surprise the audience with a visit on stage?
