Default Murry. I was there! (weird/fun begining)

I'm starting a new thread since the other go slightly off track! I put a little in there though, so sorry if I repeat myself.

First it started with a tall slim man (i'm pretty sure it was Joel) in a Jesus-looking clothe draped over him and a black hood/mask with big red glowing eyes. He walked out slowly on to the stage, sat down and stared a bit of drumming on this little set up they had a the front of the stage of all sorts of rhythm instruments. He was followed by a really large man in a bright orange jump-suit with something about the "pshyc-ward" on the back. His face was covered with a huge brown curly wig/beard. (he looked like the giant from the Harry Potter movies. i don't watch them so i don't know his name) i later realized this fellow was part of the crew. Then a woman (pretty sure it was vyvienne) came out draped in black, with her hair wrapped in a black cloth with large sunglasses. Finally another man dressed like the first came out. They all sat at the front of the stage doing a nice little rythym number. No one really knew what was going on. IT was pretty funny though. So, like I described everyone's face was covered so I can't be %100 sure who was who, but i'm pretty sure it was Joel, Vyvienne, the drummer (don't know this one's name) and a crew guy. I know none of them were damein. They were all too tall. I"m not making this up kids!

So that only lasted for a few minutes then the lights went back on for about 5 minutes, then it began!!!...................

I didn't write down the setlist, but there was nothing surprising. He opened with The Professor and ended with Coconut Skins. Before the jam durring C.S. he told everyone to feel free to come up to the stage. It was really fun and an amazing jam!!!!! He was not very talkative at all. I think he only told one story before I Remember. But it was all SO good!

LOL, the beginning sounds quite crazy!
And I love that he told you to have mad fun with Coconut Skins and to come up to the stage!

Thank you for sharing!

hehe sorry viv! ... that's what happens when the eskimos lack vital information!! hehe.... it's hard to breath and all of a sudden it feels like the igloo is melting around you and we forget all about geography ... the only way to fight is to come here!
So a million thanks for coming over and giving reviews!!!

Oh, we didn't go ON stage, just UP TO the stage. There was quite a bit of room between the first row and the stage so when he gave the go ahead we all just ran up. The stage was pretty low too so it was really cool. One girl did jump up ON stage and started damcing like crazy, but was promptly ushered away!


And I didn't meet him, we just ended up in the same place at the same time for a while. I'm not one to approach people I don't know and he looked like he was trying to just be alone and it would have been inapropriate anyway.

Ah ah, me too! LOL
In some way I think something like that can be more precious than just jumping up to exchange a few words!
