This is a coalmind's personal review of the show from her site:
a word: PHENOMENAL!
They sounded
fabulous, they all looked fabulous, and Siouxsie is more sexy, mature, and
captivating than ever!!
I can't remember
everything that was said to the audience, but here are some quotes, all
approximate...
Pure
Jigsaw Feeling(Sioux
greets audience, "Well! I'm here, and they're here, and we're here, and
YOU'RE HERE!!")
Cascade(Sioux begins to recite 'Mittageisen,' then: "enough of the
fucking German, how about some English?!")
Metal Postcard
("How about some Arabic??" crowd
goes crazy)
Arabian Knights
Christine
("and now a calm
before the next storm")
Lullaby
Lands End (I think here Sioux rants about
MTV and record labels, then says something like: "we don't need any
of that fucking crap!!")--right on!, very fitting statement for next
song...
I Could Be Again
(Next song
begins, but Sioux tells band to stop and complains about the cold air
blowing on the stage --the breeze I actually liked-- but she wittily says
that she wants it "hot up here!... I know they call me the 'Ice Bitch' but
I don't like the cold THAT much!")
Switch
Night
Shift
Voodoo
Dolly (Knox
plays TRIPPY effects and improvisations on this one!, while Siouxsie lays
down and writhes around on the stage a lot)
1st Encore
(Siouxsie: "The guys played this next song last night with their pants
off, let's see if they can play it with their pants
on!")
Nicotine Stain
Cities In
Dust
2nd
Encore
Spellbound (I am amazed that during the line: "take them
by the legs," Siouxsie actually grabs her left foot and raises it up, about
as high as her shoulder, completely stretching that leg
out straight!! She did some high kicks during the concert too + lots of
jumps and dancing)
Blue
Jay Way (--a cover of a Beatles song!-- They drew the song
out long with lots of improvisation, at the end Siouxsie repeats again and
again: "... please don't be long, please don't be long...")
