Happy fuckin’ Halloween. November 1, 2007 ~ 9:58 pm
Posted by Julie in : Reviews , trackbackI still have a cold. I shared it with Rick, because isn’t that what colds are for? Sharing with the people you love?
Hope your Halloween was as good as mine. Mine involved this:
I only wish there were pictures of Sting’s ass in those tights to show you. Yoga is good, and the effects of it are visible even from the nosebleed seats. (For the record, Sting was a jester with a codpiece, Andy was Charlie Chaplin, and Stewart was…well, I’m not sure what the hell Stewart was, except it was replete with ghoulish makeup, a cape, and a cobra head-dress. Was he a spaceman? Was he Apophis from Stargate? We will never know.)
This concert might have topped the August one for sheer insanity. It wasn’t as loud as August, and I didn’t dance around as much (dudes, I had a major head cold by last night, standing up was a fun trick once the sound system started cranking) but I did bounce around on top of the seat a fair amount. And any event where a band comes out in costume? Bonus points. The evening also involved free masks given away at Madison Square Garden, a blow-up doll being passed around the crowd (obviously someone likes “Be My Girl” as much as I do), and the drummer of Fiction Plane (the opening act, Joe Sumner’s band) dressed up as Stewart Copeland for Halloween. Everywhere we looked there was something new to gape at. I think I’ve come around to Retro’s view: even with a cold, Halloween is the best day of the year.

Sounded like a great show. I give Sting props for wearing the codpiece. He’s too damn funny!
