I saw them at the o2 last year. They played for about two hours, and I knew 3 songs. Well dull.

And they only played 'Falling in love' during the encore. Just seem to me like a 1980's vanilla ice - honkys trying something done much better by black people

UB40 started off as a radical anti establishment band but within a couple of years became establishment and then had their arses up the establishment by joining the cabaret circuilt with fuck all to say. After 3/4 years they were nothing more than a fucking embarassment.

I always felt with them that their stance was fake, the 1 in 10 thing just an empty, but well crafted song. Fair play though, they made a decent living out of it....I'd pay not to see them.
