TOMORROW NIGHT! Music Tech instructor Eric Kuehnl’s 80s band, Retrospekt, is playing the Ivy Room in Albany again on Saturday, Feb. 11. This is a Valentine’s show featuring a New Romantics theme. So, bust out your best Adam Ant rococo look (or not) and dance to 80s new wave hits from artists such as Tears for Fears, Depeche Mode, New Order, Thompson Twins, Simple Minds, The Cure, and many more. Check out how Eric packs way too much technology onto a tiny stage for not nearly enough money.

The band plays from 9-11 p.m. so you can get home in time for Johnny Carson. DJ Clavé plays before and follows until 1 a.m.
