It was also one of the most good natured, pleasant gigs I'd been to up to that point. Stadium gigs were marred by such savoury goings on as people lobbing bottles of piss into the audience. I saw none of that there. Oh, and the women were stunning.
? Which concert was that ? Never heard of that before ... " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |

I really DON'T know why I didn't try to get tickets for one of his Dutch concerts... 
I've only read glowing reports about this tour. Been playing his albums a lot lately and have nothing but the utmost respect for the guy. One of the best singers of his generation and a great songwriter as well.  | |

One question : What did he look like ? I haven´t seen him in a long time, the last pic I´ve seen was the one behind his steering wheel and I seriously couldn´t recognize him, he looked so different ( you know, that pic where he looks really old). He looked great - slim, fit and exuberant. The reason people - i.e: the gutter press - are giving him such a hard time is that he makes for good copy, and good copy sells papers. Unfortunately, George's escapades make for good reading. As do pictures of him looking frazzled. He got a lot of flak for Shoot The Dog - including stick from that genius writer of incisive lyrics, Noel Gallagher (I AM joking) - but, had people bothered to read the lyrics they would have read the words to one of the most surreal - and funny - protest songs written this side of Dylan. There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently | |

? Which concert was that ? Never heard of that before ... This happened when I saw The Who at Wmbley in 1980, The Rolling Stones at Wembley in 1982, Bruce Springsteen in 1985 and 1988, The Rolling Stones again at Wembley in 1990. It happened at all of the Donnington metal festivals a friend of mine went to. It's pretty much died out now, thanks to better facilities, BUT, when I went to New Order in Finsbury Park a few years ago I saw a guy pissing down his friend's leg - "for a joke".

One of the best singers of his generation and a great songwriter as well. They're all good aren't they? I think Patience was a few slow songs too long, and Songs From The Last Century is the least essential one. Older's still my favourite, and I think it may be his too. He played four songs from it yesterday. [Edited 11/30/06 8:13am] There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying.

here's the setlist... Waiting (reprise) Flawless Fast Love Father Figure Everything She Wants The First Time Ever Praying For Time Too Funky This is Not Real Love (with Mutya) Star People My Mother Had A Brother Shoot The Dog Interval - John & Elvis Video Faith Spinning The Wheel Jesus To A Child Amazing I'm Your Man Outside Careless Whisper Freedom 90 Ah, he did an Easier Affair too. Much better live. He did a bump n grind with one of his (very beautiful) backing vocalists when he sang the "Dancing with the freaks now" chorus. She looked a bit shocked.
