I thought The show was almost as strong as Monday, but the Wellmont has crap acoustics. Crowd not as enthusiastic, at first, but there was a build till a stage rush & dancing for Love Is The Drug. Whole band in fine Fine fine form. Ollie gets better EVERY TIME. Set list below. I was trying to no avail to sell extra tickets from last minute Avalonian cancellations, to no avail. There were a dozen of us trying to sell tickets. As in DC, tickets were released at the last minute for a supposedly sold out show. Security said the show was not sold out. While trying to sell the tickets, I recognized Fonzi Thornton. He & the other back ups had gone off to find dinner, & were bringing take out ,back to the bus. Told him he must have a really ugly portrait in the attic as he is remarkably unchanged since the High Road video. wonderfully gracious, he introduced me to Tawatha & the other back ups. Also saw the engineers Simon Willey, who i'd met outside Letterman, & Johnson Sommerset, coming back from dinner. "We tried Beauty Queen in rehearsals, Didn't work well. He'll probably never do it live again." After going in, thought i'd hang at the smoking corral. Next to the corral, was a young guy I had seen in MD the previous night. Oh, you're with the tour, We talked a bit... Tata was por power drumming, Newmark for finess, we decided just one drummer for the US Tour What's with ollie & the dotted shirt? Is it lucky, or doesn't Ferry pay him enough? "Laugh, a little of both." ..... What do you do on the tour? "I'm Mr Ferry's assistant" Uh.I heard one of his sons was doing that. "yeah, he's my dad." So then you're responsible for the best graphic projections I've ever seen at a show. "well, BF had a lot of input. He wants them to be right" (He calls him BF!!!) We talk some more about the great graphics. They've been showing the really funny Can't Let Go images during Oh Yeah!, as the OY! ones didn't work out . Well, I was hoping to get some autographs on the tour book since the bus is here. Would you sign my tour book? "Well I designed it, so yeah... Who else's autograph do you want?" Everybody, anybody. "OK, pick this up at the merch table later." Isaac Ferry is my new hero! Everybody on stage signed the book, even the dancers! So excited, I almost wet my pants! Came home and fell out! Long day after the drive back from MD New show tonight, Beacon Theater, my last! Regards, R Deagle Setlist same as Monday's except they dropped Casanova & Oh Yeah!, and no encore Hold On I'm Coming The Main Thing You Can Dance Slave To Love Tom Thumb's Blues If There Is Something Make You Feel My Love Kiss & Tell Boys & Girls Alphaville Like A Hurricane Interval Tara Bittersweet Along The Watchtower Reason Or Rhyme Avalon My Only Love Love is the Drug Let's Stick Together Encore Jealous Guy ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ End of avalon-digest V15 #206 ***************************** ======================================================================== For further info, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: info avalon-digest
