Yeah, me too. Except I didn't get there until probably a half hour before Bowie came on.

Maybe next time.

TRON said:

he said he would be mixing it up. i don't know if that meant different songs or a mixture of both sets. either way, i wish i was going! that's me, never satisfied.

his joking was just constant. almost between every song. he was cracking jokes about getting older and knowing less and less. he was cracking jokes about americans: "you're all so polite...you'd never know you were americans". a lot of silliness in general. i've seen him about 5 times and this was certainly his most personable performance.

SassyBritches said:

This was my 5th time too.

I thought the Chicago audience was a bit polite too. It wasn't until he was finished with a song that I even knew they were alive at some points. Detroit was a lot more wild. There's no way you can go tomorrow?

TRON said:

baby, you know i'se be workin' on it!!! anything is possible...

SassyBritches said:

I wish I could go too. There's no way though.

I wish we could've met up somehow, but I got there so late and I have absolutely no idea what you look like.

TRON said:

where were you sitting, just out of curiousity...knowing you, you probably had some prime seats in the 1st to 3rd rows! lol.

SassyBritches said:

I was on the far right hand side, Row 5.

I waited up at the front like I said, but no one came running up to say "Hey TRON".

Did you wait afterwards for Bowie either night? He came out on Tuesday to say hi.

TRON said:

you're kidding me...i had no idea that you would be waiting around...that's shitty!

no, i didn't wait to see bowie. i was with a friend from miami and we both have serious issues with the cold...after the show we practically ran to the cta station. i really wish i had the chance to have met up with everyone. i looked for anxiety and stymie but couldn't see anyone familiar.

SassyBritches said:

I told ya I was gonna try to get a setlist and hang around afterwards!

I looked for Anxiety too but I really can't tell what he looks like from the pictures in his profile.

I just tried to pick out what looked like a guy with his mom. LOL. Didn't work though.

TRON said:

you told me, directly, or you said that in a post? i'm so sorry, i would have loved to meet up with you!

SassyBritches said:

I told ya in a post that I'd be the tall kid up at the front trying to get a setlist.

You were like, "LOL. Okay. I'll look for the tall kid then."

I know that was a pretty vague description though.

TRON said:

i so fucking thought you were joking around! everybody says "i'll be the..."

SassyBritches said:

I'm sorry.

I thought it was the best way to describe where I'd be and what I'd be doing since I couldn't meet up ahead of time.

TRON said:

lol. sometimes i'm very dense. and i think sometimes reading something (rather than hearing it) can give you the wrong impression.

regardless, it sucks and i would've enjoyed meeting you!

SassyBritches said:

Damn you! Had you called me on my cell like I told you to, I would have gladly given you and your friend a ride back. :meanface:

TheOrgerFormerlyKnownAs said:

apparant;ly, i'm havin a hard time listening to my orgnotes...
the offer was sweet but i didn't want to be a trouble. i know how it is when its late and the last thing you REALLY feel like doing is chauferring peeps around, lol.

SassyBritches said:

It would not have been a bother, sweetie. Anx lives moments from you and it would have been a honor to be in your company again. Us Orgers oughta get more organized.

TheOrgerFormerlyKnownAs said:

i know you ain't lyin'! we all live relatively close to each other, yet we only see each other once a month?! what is that shit?

SassyBritches said:

You've met Anxiety? What's he like?

TRON said:

oh, just dreamy

Here's a great shot from the show.

TRON said:

notice the suggestively placed belt...mmm...hello? clean up in aisle three! i must get into that show tonight!

SassyBritches said:

I did notice. It really gets flopping around and crucial moments. LOL.

Are you gonna try to make it to tonight's show?

TRON said:

tron, i'm going to give it my best effort! i can just smell moonage daydream, drive in saturday and loving the alien!

SassyBritches said:

Have you checked ticketmaster or bowienet yet to see if there are tix available? Hope you go!

TRON said:

nope. its dry. no tickets. but i've been informed that the scalpers get desperate here in the chicago cold and sell them cheap once the show starts...that's where i may hav the best luck. i'm good at bargaining!

SassyBritches said:

Oh good luck! Is your Florida friend gonna try to go with you? You should wait afterwards for Bowie. Maybe he'll surprise y'all and sign some shit. Dress warmer this time.

TRON said:

gina is back in miami. she had to eventually get back to work. good news, though...i just got an email from someone who's friend has an extra ticket! i'm going to try and work out a deal. i may stick around with my aladdin sane vinyl...where does he come out?

SassyBritches said:

Cool. He came out by the stage door and the tour bus. There will be a whole bunch of people waiting there. It was on the side of the self parking or on the opposite side of the valet parking and entrance. Let me know how it all turns out!

thanks for the tips, tron!
