"Serving Numanoids For Over Half of Gary's Career"

Hello to the Numanoids Of The World! We're taking it global to fans in Australia, Japan, Canada and even 1 in Guam! Mad huge update this month, hence the couple days' delay. As always, I trust you will find it all worth the wait!

In the "We Have A Technical" Department, problems arose with June's much awaited release of Jagged Edge when Gary went on holiday and missed emails describing a couple technical glitches with the release. All has been sorted and the release date is now slated for July 14th. But on the upside, Gary got to take some time off to enjoy the fruits of his labor, especially with all the tour dates we'll be treated to this summer!

Cambridge Junction

I've got some bad news and some good news. First the bad news. When local band South Central opened for Gary in Brighton in March, the audience response was tepid. This was disappointing news as I thought they were brilliant, like Devo an acid! But now the good news. Gary Numan has worked with South Central on the new song Crawl. And so far the Numanoid reaction has been very positive, even likening the song to the energy of Crazier. I've included a short clip of the song in The Audio Principle so you can judge for yourself.

The latest issue of Terrorizer Magazine features a Numan interview. Definitely a good read so check it out! Consult the UK communications provider Orange for a great interview about Gary's first car and what he drives today. You may be as surprised as I was.

Brighton Dome

I just received Rob Naylor's CD of pictures from Cambridge! I've posted many of these exclusive pictures on the NAGNFC Picture Pages. The rest will appear in the next update. It was especially cool of Rob to share these with us as my camera battery died that night! Check them out here! Rob was also kind enough to send along some video from the evening. The first of them is the intro to the show which is available now over at the NAGNFC NuTube Page! Thanks, Rob! While you're there, pick up some video from the Brighton show, too.

Riveting Chapter 7: Brighton is now online! This month, read on as we nearly get kicked out of the Black Horse pub, take a taxi ride from a driver who doesn't know the streets and throw down the Replica Tour's best preshow party! Included are lots of pictures and video from the day. Or you can pick up the tour journal from the beginning here!

In the spirit of this month's Brighton chapter, I've included almost 100 pictures from the show on the NAGNFC Picture Pages. Bring a bag lunch, get comfortable and enjoy!

Gary is performing on four stages this month. If you have any pics, stories or sounds from the shows, we would love to share them on this website for you!

No winner yet for the latest question over at Is Trivia Electric. The first one with the right answer wins great Numan schwag and worldwide Numanoid prestige!

Thanks to the many people involved in keeping this month's update up to the high standard NAGNFC readers have enjoyed since the '80s! Much thanks to Stephen for his world-class artistic talent. And thanks to Rob for the eye candy from Cambridge! Much thanks to Steve for the heads up on the South Central collaboration. It's too wicked!! And thanks to Gary Numan, without whom this would be the North American Duran Duran Fan Club!

'Til next time!
