BAUHAUS MINNEAPOLIS

Hi there
Just returned home after seeing Bauhaus in Minneapolis....what a show! Anyone who has not already got there tickets for the UK tour should have a rethink. It was very different to the Resurrection tour, a lot less theatrical, more stripped down..and the venue (State Theatre) was the perfect place for the Bauhaus experience....a 1920's vauderville/picture palace.
My wife was over the moon as she got Kevins drum sticks from the show...autographed!
We were definately seen by the people of Minneapolis as a bit of a novelty.... I think we were the only English people in the city, and at one point mistaken for coming from Iceland!
Anyway, enjoy the upcoming shows

In Fear of Fear
Terror Couple Kill Colonel
Swing the Heartache
She's in Parties
The Passion of Lovers
Silent Hedges
Kick in the eye
Hollow Hills
Rosegarden Funeral of Sores
Stigmata Martyr
Hair of the Dog

Dark Entries

I'm glad "Bela Lugosi's Dead" is being played last as I fear I may die of excitment whan I hear it live and would hate to miss the rest :lol: .
Would love also to hear - Severance, The Passion of Lovers, Boys.

Never heard anything by them before, but just got me that Bela Lugosi thingy, and I most say it's quite good indeed :notworthy:

Without wishing to rain on your parade Ms Emily, I will warn you in advance that Alexandra Palace is the worst venue in London by a long shot. I saw The Stripes there last November and apart from the mile walk up the hill (take your trainers and change) from the train station in the rain (that always gets you in gig mode) it's in the middle of nowhere. On a hill. Hence the captive market price of £3.00 for a bottle of water at the bar. Which nobody needed as the place has no heating. I think the cloak room made about 50p that night. The acoustics are sh!t as well. You're welcome. :wink:

Ever considered taking up a position as a motivational speaker Johnny? I foresee great things...;)

Most notably a great rise in voluntary redundancy :innocent:

sorry Emms

gotta agree with Johnny...Alexandra Palace is a bastard to get to...and a crap venue once inside...(messer Manson :urff: i would have preferred the Stripes :wink: )

should suit the talented young men called the darkness down to the ground :roll:
