Elton John live-tiny dancer-s

l-am mai vazut pe 21 iunie 2003 pe Cotroceni, cind au dat drumul la moca si ne-am luat tzeapa cu bilete destul de scumpe, dar am stat macar pe alea de A.
Acum n-am luat bilete si cu valul de caldura, cod galben rosu si albastru, am zis sa ma duc pina la Piata Constitutiei. Numai Geo s-a aratat destul de brav s-o faca, si ajunsi acolo moca bilete. Casa inchisa. Ce-or avea in cap oamenii astia ? Plus ca Elton a inceput pe la 8 si zece, pe lumina si caldura. Dar am intrat finally (thanks CRM), pe piesa norocoasa, Tiny Dancer, si am purces pina in fata. A cintat vreo 2 ore 20, tot minus Pinball Wizard, cu care l-am vazut in 2003.







The Bitch is Back (my video)-si Paul Anka a cintat piesa

Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand
Jesus freaks out in the street
Handing tickets out for God
Turning back she just laughs
The boulevard is not that bad
Piano man he makes his stand
In the auditorium
Looking on she sings the songs
The words she knows, the tune she hums
But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you, and you can hear me
When I say softly, slowly
chorus
Hold me closer tiny dancer
Count the headlights on the highway
Lay me down in sheets of linen
you had a busy day today
[repeat chorus]
Blue jean baby, L.A. lady, seamstress for the band
Pretty eyed, pirate smile, you'll marry a music man
Ballerina, you must have seen her dancing in the sand
And now she's in me, always with me, tiny dancer in my hand
But oh how it feels so real
Lying here with no one near
Only you, and you can hear me
When I say softly, slowly


one of the best LA songs, knew it was about Bebbe Buel the groupie, but it seems it was about Taupin's future wife...but also made famous by Penny Lane from Almost Famous by Cameron Crowe...

Clapton /Winwood over Bucharest

ma bucur mai ales pt posesorii biletelor de 6,5 mil, stiu ei de ce,
in rest, i took the piss at last, GLAD, and..this concert was brilliant,
lights and sounds and all...
si sa fii cu 10 oameni konaiseuri si toti sa se intrebe de ce se cinta Gimme Some Lovin' (Spencer Davis Group, people) ???
o Layla pe 2 chitari unplugged.......
o Georgia superba...
un After Midnight pe la 10 seara :)
mi-ar fi placut un Roll With IT dar a fost un Voodoo Chile special, ca unul cintat de Gilmour and co, at the time of Dark Side of The Moon jammin', si n-a fost Little Wing si la final un/o Cocaine cu o clapa tenebroasa care tinea ritmul si un solo Winwood (care a stat jumate de timp la orga Hammond) in care l-a intrecut pe Clapton...
have to go see Elton tomorow, Tiny Dancer had to have her way !

opinia presei noastre si a presei lor: "another strong performance despite an unengaged audience."

Remembering Dennis Hopper

"

I don't have a problem playing bad guys,but it would be more interesting if I had a variety of roles to play

."
(DH)

"

I've been in a lot of really bad movies that I think I gave some of my best performances in. And there were some movies that I've really been bad in … It's shaky material a lot of the time but I try to do the best job that I can under the circumstances."

continuind surfarea prin viata si cariera lui Dennis the Menace, de la The American Dreamer la Mad Dog Morgan, Tracks si The American Way-o sa revin cu the B side (The Piano Player, The Keeper), am descoperit niste articole minunate despre el in Guardian si Observer, de la un obituary, la un elogiu al lui Alex Cox, fostul sau angajat, la un tribut de Peter Bradshaw, Hollywood's Uneasy Rider,, Paul Joyce, despre el ca artist si fotograf, si chiar un articol al lui Dennis despre prietenul sau Jack Nicholson cind a implinit 70 de ani (2007)

la Cannes in 1970, alaturi de Peter (Fonda) si Jack...

dar cel mai bine o spune un user cu un citat din Kerouac,

'The only people for me are the mad ones,the ones who are mad to live,mad to talk,mad to be saved,desirous of everything at the same time,the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing,but burn, burn , burn, like fabulous Roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.
