1. Tears For Fears Live Dvd

Driving the band ever since their formation has been the partnership of Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith, who met while they were teenagers at the same school in their native city Bath, in Somerset, England. Both of them were very musically talented and had chemistry together right away, performing together as The Baker Brothers around local pubs and clubs when they were a mere sixteen years old. However, they soon grew out of their band name, and since they opened their gigs with a cover of Simon & Garfunkel’s “Mrs. Robinson”, the duo decided to rename themselves after the film that the song was made famous in. As the ska/mod revival band Graduate, the band secured themselves a publishing deal and an extra three members backing the original duo.

They ended up releasing an album and a single in 1980 but both tanked in the U.K, despite making some small waves over Europe. By 1981, however, both Orzabal and Smith had moved on from what they were playing in Graduate, and wanted to start playing music influenced by the likes of Peter Gabriel, David Byrne and Brian Eno. They disbanded Graduate and formed a band influenced by the most cutting edge music of the time called History Of Headaches.

They soon came to their senses and renamed the band Tears For Fears. Using the connections they’d built with their previous group, the band secured a record deal with Phonogram Records the very same year they formed and expanded the group to a four piece with the addition of drummer Manny Elias and bassist Ian Stanley. Their first single came out in the November of that year, but “Suffer The Children” failed to chart despite it being play listed by the massively influential Radio One DJ John Peel, and their second single, “Pale Shelter”, didn’t do much better.

Things looked bleak for the band, but their third single would prove to be their making as a band. In November 1982, “Mad World” peaked at number three on the U.K charts and is one of the most enduring hits of the 1980’s to this day. With a head of steam and masses of momentum, the band’s debut album, “The Hurting”, was released in March 1983 and spent 65 weeks in the album charts, peaking at number one and going platinum with ease. They had a further two top five singles in the U.K with “Change” and a re-recorded and re-released “Pale Shelter”, and the album, along with its three singles, saw high chart placements all over the world. Tears For Fears became one of the hottest bands in the world within the space of a single year, and they had the world at their feet. One would assume that this would be the point that they’d blow it, and truth be told, they nearly did. Between late 1983 and early 1984, the band released two singles that were more experimental than most were expecting.

The first of them “The Way You Are” stalled in the Top 30 and its follow up “Mother’s Talk”, did peak in the Top 20, but its release was delayed when the band had to re-produce the whole single from top to bottom after being unimpressed by the initial results. However, the bands fortunes were sealed in November 1984 with the single “Shout”, was yet another Top Five hit for the group in the U.K, and the album it came from “Songs From The Big Chair”, went to number two on the charts and stayed in the Top Ten for six months. However, they’d done all that before. What they hadn’t done, up until that point, was make much of a commercial impact in America. “Songs From The Big Chair” did just that on its release in the U.S, hitting the number one spot on the Billboard 200 for five weeks and “Shout” topping the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks the following August. They had officially made it, and ever since then they’ve been one of the most acclaimed bands of the 80’s, with songs like the aforementioned singles and “Everybody Wants To Rule The World” becoming pop standards for generations afterwards.

They’re still a pretty unmissable live act to this day, and still come highly recommended. The acclaimed duo Tears For Fears comprising of Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith were an important player in the British new wave scene of the 1980s. Following the release of their debut album 'The Hurting' is 1983 which topped the UK chart and won critics' praise, the band has been on a steady rise. Despite having not released new material in over ten years, fans still swarm to the venue to see the iconic pair perform live and hear the classic music that has soundtracked many people's lives. With their distinctive vocal and melancholic tones, the staging is suitably sparse as the duo leads the accompanying band into position. The music created is ethereal, spanning and spine chilling all at once as favourites such as 'Everybody Wants to Run the World' are delivered with an expert level of poignancy. All of the classics are included this evening including 'Sowing the Seeds of Love', 'Woman In Chains' and 'Head over Heels'.

Yet it is perhaps there most iconic track 'Mad World' that receives the largest reaction from the crowd, the duo give this the slightest of tentative smiles as they clearly still enjoy playing this somber gem. I saw Tears for Fears a few years ago at the San Jose Civic Auditorium in San Jose, California. The venue was relatively large, seating about 3,000 or so, and the band filled every single seat in that room; I don’t think that any of them actually got used, however!

The two-man band had a motley crew of assorted musicians backing them up, and they didn’t hit a sour note the whole night. As the group had its heyday in the 1980s, the crowd skewed older, but clearly hearing the group play brought them back to their younger years as everybody let loose and just plain had a great time. The lighting in the auditorium was decent, nothing special; but this meant that it complemented the music, rather than distracting from the band.

When Everybody Wants to Rule the World played, I’m pretty sure that absolutely every single one of the 3,000 in attendance sang every word – maybe when Tears for Fears sang that “Nothing ever lasts forever,” maybe they were excluding their own songs! The duo is working on a new album, so when that comes out everybody should make sure to catch the tour when it comes to their city. Saw Tears for Fears live at the Q and was very impressed! They performed a bunch of songs spanning their career. Their voices are still amazing as is their playing. Interestingly, they would sometimes speak between songs, which was cool to hear.

The music was strong and power-driven and the feel of it was amazing, not to mention the coordinated light show and the opening. I'd love to see them again and plan on it when they come back. DON'T HESITATE SEEING THEM. THEY WILL BLOW YOU AWAY. I was very satisfied and more to say the least, glad to see one of my favorite bands.

I will never forget the experience of seeing Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith live and in person. We had the pleasure of seeing Tears for Fears a few years ago at the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles and they were awesome!!

They sounded amazing and let me tell you.they still have their mojo! The entire audience was up out of their seats and singing along with the band. Kurt and Roland just keep getting better and better.

We go to alot of concerts but that concert was one of our favorites. Now we can't wait to see them again this Summer when they come to LA on tour with another favorite power duo.Hall and Oates!!! Just when you thought life couldn't get any better! Tears for Fears NEVER disappoints! They always sound incredibly good. We had seats in the front of the balcony at the Wiltern and I have never felt it shake the way it did that night.

The format is $$VariableName or $$ParameterName Changing values of Variables To change the value of a variable, one of the following functions can be used within an expression: SETMAXVARIABLE($$Variable, value), SETMINVARIABLE($$Variable, value), SETVARIABLE($$Variable, value), SETCOUNTVARIABLE($$Variable), where: • SETVARIABLEsets the variable to a value that you specify (executes only if a row is marked as insert or update). Parameters are different from variables in the fact that: • The value of a parameter is fixed during the run of the mapping • Variables can change in value during run-time Both parameters and variables can be accessed from any component in the mapping which supports it. To create a parameter or variable, go to Mapping -> Parameters and Variables from within the Mapping Designer in the Designer client. Unless overridden, it uses the saved value as the start value of the variable for the next session run. At the end of a successful session, the Integration Service saves either the MAX or MIN of (start value.final value) to the repository, depending on the aggregate type of the variable.

I was actually a bit nervous sitting up there. It was insane - but in a good way. Also caught them at Jimmy Kimmel Live. Had to watch from outside (peeking thru a crack in the fence), because we arrived just as they closed the gate. Stood outside and listened along with other latecomers.still a fun night and worth the drive. Just don't be late at Kimmel!
