Oh Hell, If I can do Morris on Friday I can definitely do this in August.
I am getting my tickets. Because of their half-baked mistakes, we get ice cream, no cake; all lies, no truth; is it fair to Kill the YOUTH ~~ Party Up | |

Betcha P'll pop up! Do not walk behind me, for I may not lead.
Do not walk ahead of me, for I may not follow. Do not walk beside me, either. Just leave me the hell alone  | |

Got my ticket. Darn Ticketbastard fees added over 50% of the price of the ticket. Ticket was $25.00. Paid $38.00! |

I usually try to go into NYC and go to the box office, but I didn't have a chance for this one.
For Eric Gales in Oct, the ticket is $50. After TM charges, it would have been $62. "Love Hurts. Your lies, they cut me. Now your words don't mean a thing. I don't give a damn if you ever loved me..." -Cher, "Woman's World" | |

I was in the city all last week for work and CONSIDERED asking my boss to stay one more week just so I could see Sheila and Fdeluxe. Right now I feel like a tool for not doing so...that is going to be a great show! |

An amazing show!!!
fDeluxe came out strong and had the crowd funked up with HighFashion, Mutiny, Desire, Nothing Compares 2 U, Screams Of Passion and River Run Dry from their first CD and Drummers & Healers, Gaslight, @8, Lover & Sanctified from the recent release, Gaslight. They also played their new track and had the CD single on sale.
Sheila E. ripped it the second she hit the stage and never stopped. Latin flavor and funk classics mixed and had the crowd on their feet and jamming along. A highlight for me was Erotic City which flowed directly inot Koo Koo. It was killer!!!!
I hope she relaizes how much love NMYC has for her and comes back soon and often.

That was a lot of fun!! Both bands were great. I like the fDeluxe album a lot and I thought the songs went over really well live. Hearing River Run Dry live after all these years was a nice touch too. There was also a nice segue from Desire to Lover.
I also liked as mentioned above the Erotic City in to Koo Koo. The sound quality in BB Kings was excellent and surprizingly Koo Koo sounded really good played out by the band. And it was fun to dance to! It was also great to see Erotic City performed by someone who is not ashamed by it. Shelia did it right.
Another surprise for me was how good The Belle Of St Mark sounded live. It was pretty rockin'. Shiela used Prince's "Y'all ain't ready" line a few times in the show and also at one point his turn-around cues from the 86 Revolution live shows. Near the end of the set Shelia brought a bunch of peeps up on stage to dance and let a little kid "play" her tambales during a break down. The kid looked scarred shitless on the stage in the spotlight, but you could tell he had a great time. She let him keep the drumsticks too.
fDeluxe hung out for a while upstairs after their set to meet everyone and sign autographs. I was SO PSYCHED to meet & say hello to Eric Leeds! I told him that I have really enjoyed his playing all these years and I can be seen riding around the city on my bike air-saxing to the man Eric Leeds!
At one point I heard someone behind me ask someone who that was and the person replied: "That's Mister Madhouse"
What a fun night! "Hyperactive when I was small, Hyperactive now I'm grown, Hyperactive 'till I'm dead and gone"

awesome!Had a great time and loved meeting so many cool people! It was awesome meeting Orgers for the first time...
Not going to re-review, but I enjoyed Sheila VERY MUCH! She is absolutely beautiful and makes it all look so easy on that stage! Can't really name which song I liked the best. She was just AMAZING!

SHEILA E. IS THE TRUTH!!!!!!!!
What an amazing night! From the moment she took the stage, she had the crowd on their feet and it turned into a big ole party!
On Koo Koo, belle of st. mark, erotic city, love bizarre, a few new songs and ofcourse Glamous Life she killed it! and she started rapping too I was like yo
AND HER BAND, they were awesome. They sounded so good, and her backup singer is da bomb! Gotta check her out!!!
I'm soooooo glad I got to see Sheila E. live. She is so beautiful and sexy, has a great spirit and is so talented. Love her!
As for FDeluxe, got to shake hands with Jellybean, they were all cool. Gaslight, Santified, Screams of Passion sound really good live. They are a good band. Susannah sounds good live, but that sex kitten act was over the top and quite uncomfortable at times and then there is her dancing

. But all in all they sound really good and most of all they are incredibly personable and friendly, especially St. Paul. I'm glad I got to see them live too.
Absolutely Amazing!
I think Erotic City and Koo Koo is what did it for me too. BB King's is a great venue giving the intimate setting a show like that deserves. I love how the band hung around and mingled with the fans. It was great meeting other orgers for the first time. I had a funky good time and look forward to when we can do this again.
Sheila has to come back to NYC again!!!

"but that sex kitten act was over the top and quite uncomfortable at times and then there is her dancing" I'll have to check that put in DC tonight. Cause i saw them in Cali and I had zero problems with her sensual stage presence. Sorry it doesn't work for you. |

I MET A GUY LAST NIGHT, WHITE GUY ABOUT 5'9 who showed me and my sister his 4 Sheila Vinyls, he was wearing all black and we sat together briefly at a small booth by the bathroom, if this is you or you know who he is please ORGNOTE ME!!!!!!!!!! very cool person!! | |

It's funny. I actually timed it by my watch when you would respond cuz I knew that comment would get to you.
I'm a chick who digs guys so it would not have the same effect on me like it did you and I'm glad you enjoyed it. But there were times where she was all up on Eric Leeds and the other guys and, it just didn't work. I'm sure Susannah is a sweet person and has a great voice but I'm just not into her stage presence. the other guys were cool and St. Paul was pretty cool. That's just my opinion.
Sheila E to me was sexy without trying to be sexy. [Edited 8/30/12 8:16am] | |
