Jump on the nostalgia train when three ’80s-era Brit bands storm the U.S. OK, maybe storm is too strong a verb. After all, it’s been 25 years or so since the Fixx, Wang Chung and Naked Eyes were musically relevant. Still, we can’t help but feel sentimental at the notion of listening to songs such as “Red Skies” (the Fixx), “Dance Hall Days” (Wang Chung) or that keyboard-heavy take on Burt Bacharach’s “Always Something There to Remind Me” (Naked Eyes, pictured). Now, if you’ll excuse us, it’s time to dust off our Flashdance-style swearshirt, pegged jeans and Ray-Ban Wayfarers. 1200 Athens Avenue in Lincoln, www.thundervalleyresort.com.
