Bringing back some very serious memories - like seeing them in '97 at the Live 105 gig in SF and then leaving and driving literally all night to LA to see the KROQ show. Hadn't thought about that weekend in ages. I may be able to get you one from an obscure Mach II gig - must've been in '93 (now I'm feeling pretty seriously old 'cause that seems like yesterday but was more than TEN YEARS AGO!!!) It was at the Catalyst in Santa Cruz, California. My boyfriend at the time had Will sign his guitar and I very vaguely recall him getting a setlist - I've emailed him to see if he did.

I was a little upset about this too. I am a big fan of INXS and started listening to them very early on. I saw them a bunch of times and thought the later albums, especially the last few, like "Full Moon, Dirty Hearts" and "Elegantly Wasted," were very good records. The show, unfortunately, isn't about "the music" or songwriting, it is a gimmick about being a rock star. For that, I find fault. But, at the same time, the band doesn't need a songwriter since they all write pretty good songs. What they need is a frontperson. Most of the singers aren't "cool" and what Bunnymen fans perceive as cool. You won't see a Mac-type grasping on to a mic stand for dear life blurting out the lyrics; all the contestants have that entertainer/show/star thing going on which, I guess, is what the band is looking for. Having said all that, I found the show to be a lot of fun and what do they have to lose? Personally, I thought he idea of having Terence Trent D'Arby front the band was a great idea. Plus, I didn't mind the women singing the INXS songs during the second elimination round. They did a good job and a couple of them really sound great. The show was on three nights last week.
