Pet Shop Boys and New Order delight fans with long-awaited Hollywood Bowl show

finally – finally! – reached the Hollywood Bowl on Friday for the first of two shows, and, friends, it was well worth the wait.

Bernard Sumner of New Order performs on the first of two nights at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles on Friday, October 7, 2022. Their initial stage set was minimalist – a microphone stand for Tennant, a keyboard and computer for Lowe, beneath a pair of bright white street lights. The street scene, augmented at times by video images that included trains passing in the night, gave a kind of transitory feel to early highlights such as “Opportunities ” and “Where the Streets Have No Name / I Can’t Take My Eyes Off You,” the duo’s mashup of hits originally done by U2 and Frankie Valli.

The main set wrapped up with dance bangers such as “It’s Alright,” a cover Tennant dedicated “to all the old ravers out there, and I think there’s quite a lot of you,” and ultimately “It’s a Sin,” one of their best-loved numbers and one like many before it that had the Bowl crowd on their feet and dancing.

But their set delivered almost as many thrills as Pet Shop Boys, with downbeat songs early in the show such as “Regret” and “Age Of Consent” and “Ceremony” slowly building a bond with the fans that paid off once the energy of the music started to take off.
