For your time, for your memory, for your detailed playback of what sounded like an awesome show. I truly felt like I was inside your head, reliving the whole thing with you, and it was exhilerating and bittersweet (in that he hasn't toured in sooooo long). I could hear the crowd screaming, I could hear Thomas talking, I could see him backflipping and dancing and hamming for the audience. The lighting descriptions you gave were delightful and, I'm assuming, captured the mood perfectly. Again, as someone who has never had the good fortune to enjoy Thomas live personally, thank you. Oh yeah, and happy 1997 everyone, this should fill my usual posting contribution quotient for the year :-). - -David ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 05 Jan 1997 11:35:31 -0500 From: Russell Milliner Subject: Re: Alloy: June 5, 1984 - ------------17C22C234A391 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii That was the most amazing account of a concert I've heard. I wish I could remember when I saw him in concert in 1988 as well. I only remember little bits and pieces of the concert. All I have to remember are some pictures taken with him after the concert. Heck, one girl didn't have anything for him to sign, so she ask him to sign across her well endowed chest. - -Russell Milliner milliner@iag.net http://www.iag.net/~milliner/tmdr - ------------17C22C234A391 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii

Well, FWIW, this account of your Flat Earth Tour performance is very much in keeping with my memory of the show. In fact, it answered a question for me...you see, I was *at* the concert in San Francisco a couple weeks earlier (May 24th, I think) and when TMDR sat down to do "Screen Kiss", he poured the drink and talked about Dan Hicks, saying "I hope he's here tonight." I guess he was, and it's good to know they got to meet. Maybe Thomas would like to tell us about it sometime....?
