i was reading the sunday morning paper and saw that david bowie and macy gray will be in minneapolis on sunday january 11th, 2004 at 7:30 p.m. at downtown minneapolis' target center.
well definitely!
and i then i couldn't help it i started thinking.
*hmmm. mm hmm!
!... wouldn't it utterly rock if prince invited macy gray to the park and she happened to bring david bowie I MEAN DAVID BOWIE! along with her ??
uh, i mean, you see, it's like this, david bowie is one of my other favorite artists. in the entire world.
i saw 'the man who fell to earth' when i was eleven or something. and to see him at the park?
WITH PRINCE??? WOULD THAT NOT BE THE CONCERT OF THE YEAR???
i'd...i'd be like...

is anyone with me on this??

*disclaimer: dreamin' when i wrote this, so sue me if i go astray

and of course, the target center concert will rock too..
anyone from mpls thinking of going?

I'll be diggin' DB and Macy a coupla days later in Chicago.

i know but wouldn't it rock if prince got up and played a few bars with them?? just a couple of measures? PRINCE AND BOWIE. dang. i'm actually sounding like a fam. . .

Don't stop dreaming XxAxX. Wasn't it Prince who sang that 'dreams become the reality"? He jammed with Santana a few years ago after a Mpls concert, maybe he wants to jam with Bowie and Macy too!

Prince played a little with Macy Gray at the first Celebration. Just one song, but it was kinda cool.

XxAxX said:

I would have heart failure on the spot if I heard Prince and Bowie jammed together, but unfortunately I don't think Bowie "jams" all that much unless he's working on stuff with Visconti & his touring/recording band.

I hope I'm wrong.

XxAxX said:

I've got my tickets. If Prince got worked into the equation somehow, I would spray my pants with glee.

XxAxX said:

i live right up the street from the target center so i'll be swimmin through bowie fans if i head over that way.

but no, i'm not gonna go...

I love Bowie too. It would be amazing, more if you think Bowie loves Prince very much.
Can you imagine "Under preassure" with Prince soloing on his guitar?

Oooh, I've gone all warm and fuzzy inside.

And a few days earlier, this Friday, Jan 9, David and Macy are in Detroit. The tandem are in Cleveland Wednesday, Jan. 7.

Detroit Crawl's calendar page has got it covered. Dig it.

it will never happen...but god bless if it does

THANK YOU FOR THIS THREAD!!!

I was so sidetracked by prepping for my new term of school that I seriously had forgotten that the show was Sunday!



I mean, I bought the tix months ago and just didn't realize it was finally almost here!

so, any of you MPLS people catching a drink pre-show anywhere?

Bowie/Macy Gray song exchange:

David Bowie - Caligula

Macy Gray - Putting Out Fire (With Gasoline)

I can hear Macy rockin' something from Aladdin Sane.

I think after Macy's cussing spree at the 2000 (?) Chicago aftershow, I doubt if Macy will get the invite... Mr Jones, though... And maybe DB will show P how to do the whole "independent with a major" and artist website thing...

Eff a Jam session, give a business lesson...

Macy's my girl.. I dig all 3 of her albums

soul-psycodelia

funkateer!

I'm sure P will be drinkin Molson's and watching hockey in
Toronto that nite

Never liked Macy, she sounds like Marge Simpson.

JavierAlcalde said:

No - I CANT!

Just remember - this is a QUEEN song, not a Bowie song, thanku very much!

Anyway, didnt Macy do something that pissed Prince off at the Celly the other year?

oh dear. is prince mad at her now?? well i hope he might go and shake his pants or somethin anyway. but, even i he doesn't i'll still be jammin because BOWIE ROXX!!!

I'll be at the Bowie show on the 11th at the Target Center. Guess where I'll be? In the third row!!! Yipeee! Only time I've ever had a third row seat at an arena show before was at the Prince show in St. Paul during Celebration 2001. Prince I have seen up close many times but never Bowie (I've seen him twice but both times from far back) So I am EXCITED about this show! And Macy too! Only time I've seen her was the first night of the first celebration in 2000.

I'll look for you with my binoculars

Dansa doesn't like Bowie!

Would be great, but going off what P said at the meet and greet in Sydney - "David bowie has TOO MUCH MONEY, why does he need that much money" - I dont think he'd perform...Prince, jealousy is a curse!

I'm sure Prince could rattle off just about any Bowie under those circumstances
