Meanwhile, a brief update on the plans for the OMD/Peter Saville installation: The work will be premiered at FACT in Liverpool in March 2008 as part of the Capital of Culture celebrations. The installation has a working title of The Energy Suite and is based on five power stations.

OMD are also currently working with The London Philharmonic Orchestra for a unique tour in Autumn 2008. The series of concerts that will tour Europe and the States will see the LPO playing The Energy Suite from the OMD/Peter Savile Installation with giant screens carrying projections of the power station images as well as the band and Orchestra interpreting many of OMD's classic back catalogue songs.

If that isn't enough OMD for you, please remember that the band are performing as part of the Night Of The Proms throughout Germany for 18 dates later this month. The band will be playing with an orchestral backing to crowds of 175,000.
