A couple for the Z and BG.
The tour started today, in Helsinki. From the info to date, the setlist is pretty much as we talked about before. That seemed to be enough for Zelmo, but I must say Glue Birl seemed disheartened by the news and we expect to see her tickets show up anyday now, because it's obviously a HUGE waste of time...
I mean, just look at this:
Doesn't that look like the makings of a lousy stage show?
Heh. It looks like it knocks the last tour into a cocked hat. Or a Hocked Cat.
EDIT
SPOILER-BOILERS.
I have seen video.
You see Chester and Phil. playing a stool.
Look at those colors up there. It's an amazing light tech to get such pure blues and yellows. And that's only the beginning from what I see.
Zelmo, that three screen dealio on the last tour? So last century. Face it, they did the three screens back in 74, albeit with slides; the new show goes a different, and altogether completely jaw droppingly awe inspiringly, direction. Three words: WALL OF FLAME. It's scary good on crappy hand held video; in person it's gonna make people pass out.
It is confirmed, that I was wrong: Turn It On Again is not the very first opener; it comes during the first suite, however; close but no cigar. One reviewer said "Turn It On Again was only 700,000 times better than the VH1 Rock Honors" So there's a chance, however slight, that BlueGrrl won't be disappointed.
I wonder if there's a certain song introduced as "...for a Blue Girl"?

P.S. Stop by Claire's blog. You can link to it thru us or Jennifer or Blue Girl. She is talking about Chicago architecture.
I feel like I'm being interrogated by the front row stage lights.
ReplyDeleteWhere is stoneface Tony?
I made a choice to go with teh piccy that featured Dynamic Daryl.
ReplyDeleteEven though the other picture almost- almost- made it look like Banks was smiling.
But the Dar had to go up. Becasue the Dar is going to get us backstage. So I'm told.
I have my people working on this 24-7.
ReplyDeleteHowever, there is a fine line between "celebrity idolatry" and "stalking".
Well, it's up to Y-O-U to CROSS THAT LINE.
ReplyDeleteI guarantee you, having seen the Wembley viddy AND the early vids of the Helsinki show, that the visuals are astounding.
I can't emphasize that too much.
