Blondie split up back in 1984. When they suddenly re-emerged last year, you could have been forgiven for seeing it as a moneymaking exercise. Maybe they are just doing it for the money, but there was nothing tired or cynical about their performance at the Point Theatre. Their hour-and-a-half set was electrifying.

Debby Harry is a little older, and a little more decadent (if that's possible), but she still has a hugely charismatic stage presence and that cold, vampish delivery. Most importantly, Blondie's music hasn't dated. They write memorable pop songs, and although they're essentially a punk band, their willingness to dabble keeps the music unpredictable.

Blondie opened with familiar material - Dreaming, given a clear, concise performance, followed by the more intense Hanging on the Telephone. These songs were greatly aided by drummer Clement Burke, whose playing is busy, but also clear and sympathetic.

Debby Harry glided sensually through the vocal on Atomic, the band creating a suitably light backing. They extended this song to incorporate a ridiculous but apt bass guitar solo. Of the newer material, Maria is formulaic, but it's fun and it's perfect for Harry's vocal range. They also included a couple of previously unheard songs as encores - which worked well and suggest that there's still plenty of life in the band.

The show ended with the disco-inflected Heart of Glass, an old song that manages to sound thoroughly modern. Blondie are an all-round class act.
