I was there too! I'm a huge Gary Numan fan and have seen him many times. We convinced my niece and her husband to go to the S.F. show in March. They enjoyed it so much they wanted to see him again in Santa Cruz.It was our first 'No Vaccine/No Mask' requirement show. Needless to say we masked up the whole time.
It was kind of weird because they blocked off the side with bars as it was an all-ages show. No alcohol was allowed on the 'under 21' side. This meant the huge contingent of young Gary Numan fans could check him out. Both of them.
Anyway - Nine Inch Nails is an acceptable comparison to his new post-apocolyptic nomad persona. I posit that his music is much more melodic than NIN and deserves a listen via studio work. Check out "My Name is Ruin" on you tube for a taste.
If you see a Scion XA with a Gary Numan bumper sticker, that's me!
