She's In Parties
Joe was paying attention when he saw that the Bauhaus are coming to town! Yes, yes, the reunited full band! Wooohooooo! Dead Can Dance AND the Bauhaus all in the same year! We scored presale tickets!
That picture is circa 1981 or something, I think. Totally cracks me up. But I'm so excited! This will mark the 4th time I've seen Peter Murphy on stage. He's so mesmerizing, melodic and just plain amazing. Bauhuas is much darker music than Peter Murphy, who has dozens of really wonderful lovesongs to his credit. I imagine will have quite the goth crowd there, but also a bunch of 30+ geezers as well. More mainstream listeners may be familiar with Love & Rockets which is pretty much Bauhaus sans Peter.
It's the year of reunion tours for me. Duran Duran, Dead Can Dance and now Bauhaus! And if we don't go away for our anniversary (five years!) we may go see one of the bands I used to promote when I was doing radio way back when, The Posies. I've seen them six gazillion times and was so so sad when I heard they broke up back in 97. I've followed Jon and Ken's solo careers but wow--seeing them again would be awesome! They are just so great together. Every Kind of Light is a must have album!
