Set List

Postby Simonp on Fri Sep 07, 2007 4:27 pm

That's a nice selections of songs if that's what they played but there are only 13 tracks????And where the hell is DARKEST BIRDS, GET THE HELL OUT and MONEY FOR ALL? And surely Sylvian could have slipped in DARKEST DREAMING as an encore.

I just got this info out of the mind of someone who was there *waves* on a text so there might be more songs, no clue! Just thought everyone would like to know.

So, more details from Bridget (that was the one there, heh) though she will tell you more when she's back (she took pics and video too, we'll see how they come out):

-She got a smile from David. Probably because she said that everyone there were in their 40's and 50's and she's younger, hee (my opinion!) Very enthusiastic audience btw

-keith Lowe wore a kilt

-A man screamed "I love you" to David *heee*, someone replied "good for you!"

-A woman gave him flowers

-David's outfit: dressed in black, white shoes, grey socks and looking very well ;)

-They made 2 encores

Well, she will tell us more soon! ;)

Thanks for the info Sisterlondon :D

White shoes? Oh dear, back to he 80's :lol:

shame there's nothing from Blemish - I would have traded World Citizen for pretty much any song from his back catalogue.

I'm just thankful he's touring though :smt038

So, does Keith have nice legs? :-D

Well that sounds really cool. Glad somebody got David to smile at least!!!

Yeah, white shoes after Labor Day---not very fashionista of him!! :lol:

Did he like his flowers? How was his voice?

He sang Wanderlust(melting in my computer chair........then passing out)

I am impressed with the set list---I bet he shakes it up a bit down the road though.

But what about Steve----bet he was looking tasty too!!!!!

What instruments did David play?

And whoever has video---post it on YouTube or wherever because I just gotta see it baby!!!!!! :-D


THanks for the report so far.
