Naked Eyes kicks off SummerFest right on time

By alarsen | Saturday, July 5, 2008, 12:35 PM

Pete Byrne, the surviving half of Naked Eyes, along with a backing band, was on hand to kick off Mix 107.7’s SummerFest 10 at Fraze Pavilion. And they started right on time. Although keyboardist Rob Fisher, the other half of the UK group who passed away in 1999 due to complications from stomach surgery, was missing, the music was just as we remembered it back in the day. Known best for their cover of Burt Bacharach’s “(There’s) Always Something There to Remind Me” which Bacharach penned with Hal David, the band also played lesser synth-pop hits, ending with the guitar driven ballad “Promises, Promises.” It was a nice way to start a long day of ‘80s immersion. Byrne ended things at 12:25 p.m. saying, “Thank you and good morning!” Ten bands on one stage has got to be a logistical nightmare, but Fraze so far seems to be right on top of things. One band down, nine to go … stay tuned.
