OMD are trying to raise money and awareness to the situation faced by their crew, whose livelihoods have been so affected in the wake of the global Covid-19 pandemic. Origianlly planned as a gig on October 24th and merchandise range the band were forced to postpone the show to March for many reasons including Andy' McCluskeys Covid 19 diagnosis.
All profits and donations will be divided between the band’s dedicated and loyal crew who work on their infamously brilliant live show, and who have been struggling both mentally and financially from the impact of no touring due to Covid-19 and uncertainty of their futures. Above all, it’s more than the money - it’s been an opportunity for both Andy McCluskey & Paul Humphreys to show their appreciation and give back to their team, granting them a sense of purpose and dignity with something special to work on. Live crew are often overlooked and only acknowledged when things go wrong, so ‘You Me & OMD’ is also a chance to shine a light on the crucial work that they do. The are the essential but unseen stars of OMD’s live performances.
