Big, bad, brilliant, Bryan was at the top of his game in an incredible 90-minute set in front of a sell-out crowd at the Regent. Mr Ferry has an enduring appeal and the throng was made up of many who have supported him since the Roxy Music days which started in the early seventies. Whether on tour with this band  or back with a reformed Roxy during a world tour last year  the fans have turned up their thousands. The 1,700 Regent crowd was spellbound by a mixture of old and new from the three decades when Ferry has ruled the musical waves. In the early days, many of the crowd dressed themselves as copycats of the "peacock" rockers, including Woodbridge's very own Brian Eno. They rocked in the aisles, wore their hair long, shocked themselves with their bright make-up and preened their sequins and feathers with pride. They thought their days as beautiful rock folk would never end. Sadly, the days of responsible behaviour soon caught up with the Roxy boys and girls  but they never lost their passion for dear Bryan, who was last in Ipswich a couple of years ago. Today the crowd may have hidden their feathers away in the loft  but the passion, if not all the make-up, is still there aplenty. Thus it was that they stormed to the front, leaving the nicely-rounded bouncers in their wake, when the Ferry ensemble  an incredible 12-strong  started belting out the old favourites. How good it was to see them in stomping action  and Mr Ferry appeared truly delighted that the crowd was rocking and a bopping. I loved the mixtures of old and new, including tracks from the new Ferry album, Frantic. Old favourites included Slave to Love, a beautifully-rendered Jealous Guy, Love is the Drug and Do the Strand. In parts of the performance, the inter-twining of guitar, piano, drums, vocals and saxophone was exquisite. Wave after wave of musical pleasure flowed over the audience  the big man, in parts strutting like a demented daddy longlegs (sorry, girls) knew he was in charge. Support came in from all his band members, but one of his oldest musical allies, Chris Spedding was in top axeman form  even if his dress sense was left at home. Ferry and Co showed Ipswich the massive importance of live music. At its zenith, the Regent performance was enough to bring a tear trilling down many a middle-aged cheek. It was haunting, majestic, magical, powerful and rounded. Three encore numbers included Let's Stick Together and Shame on You. Then the magic man, and his friends, were gone into the mists of a Suffolk autumn evening. As a young teenager, this reviewer knew the joys of a brilliant Roxy performance. He saw another stunner last night. Bryan, we were all dreaming of the past  we all enjoyed the present ... and we hope we have much more of you to look forward to in the future. *** Faith Hill - Exclusive Performances, Videos, & more faith.yahoo.com ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon Avalonians on tour 2002: http://helios.unive.it/~tcecilia/meetup.html US ticket sale info: http://www.thewebgal.com/roxymusic/ (updated weekly) ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 5 Oct 2002 07:44:21 -0700 (PDT) From: Aleks Kocan Subject: [AVALON] Roxyrama in "Q" Magazine Small feature in this months UK "Q" Music Magazine: "Roxyrama - A Brian Ferry And Roxy Music Archive" "www.roxyrama.com" "Comprehensive resource that has all the usual official site malarkey - buy the new DVD, check tour news etc - but also has a treasure trove of stuff you only get with this kind of labour of love : an extensive press cuttings libary and an excellent miscellany with autographs, postcards, sheet music and the like" Nice one Chris!

Nothing would please me more than to bung a few bucks on Bryan's piano and request what I want to hear. That's not going to happen and even in my wildest dreams, it wouldn't get the fans up dancing in the aisles. Familiarity of material is absolutely critical to live music if you want a positive engaging reaction from your audience IMO. We shouldn't forget that we a just a few, and be very, very grateful for all these recent live performances from Mr. F. I spoke with some friends recently who had seen Dylan in Brighton.All were fans of his music for many years, but the unanimous response from all regarding the show was that "It would probably have been better without Dylan"! Though surrounded with outstanding musicians, his bizarre rearrangements of usually familiar tunes left many in the audience second guessing themselves as to what they were listening to?(I can't vouch for what may have been drank/smoked by listeners mind you?) I would bet that an artist the stature of Dylan will continue to sell out regardless.Mr Ferry or most of his contemporaries, I very much doubt it. Though Ferry can carry a white DJ better than any living man known, it is a cliche,yet it is one the Fans love to see. I personally preferred the 3/4 velvet, rhinestone buttoned number unveiled on a previous tour, but that didn't arouse any cheers (well not until the moment of pure theater when he spangled the front rows with glitter during IPASOY......aaah Classic Ferry) DM ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon Avalonians on tour 2002: http://helios.unive.it/~tcecilia/meetup.html US ticket sale info: http://www.thewebgal.com/roxymusic/ (updated weekly) ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 05 Oct 2002 19:11:25 +0100 From: "Gemini Moon" Subject: [AVALON] Edwin new pics Congratulations,Edwin,very nice pics of Lucy,Julia and Katie on the Remake-Remodel site,also Chris and Paul of course! _________________________________________________________________ Join the worlds largest e-mail service with MSN Hotmail. http://www.hotmail.com ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon Avalonians on tour 2002: http://helios.unive.it/~tcecilia/meetup.html US ticket sale info: http://www.thewebgal.com/roxymusic/ (updated weekly) ------------------------------ End of avalon-digest V7 #332 **************************** ======================================================================== For further info, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: info avalon-digest
