Wild! lege radio and three songs charted on Billboard’s Hot
Dance Music/Club Play chart.
In the UK, Wild! continued Erasure’s mainstream suc-

launched the first of their many elaborately staged con-
cert tours - this one featuring gigantic sets and props
and several costume changes for band members Vince
Clarke and Andy Bell, as well as several back-up singers
and dancers.
