Cool...where are you coming from? I'll be at that show (of course)..look for the guy in the Tomorrowpeople shirt. Incidentally, if you haven't been there before, La Zona Rosa is a really nice venue. They have two stages...I assume he'll be playing the big room...but even so it is a very intimate little place and a lot of fun....But the parking is shit...get there early if you want to find a place to park. On the other hand, the security at LZR are really nice...at both the shows I've been to there before I got to meet the artist/hear soundcheck...so definitely worth showing up early and staying late! Hope you have a good trip...

Being rather curious about it, the man asked how he got a giant orange for a head. 'Well,' said the orangeheaded man, "its a funny story. You see, i found a genie in a bottle. I had 3 wishes" "So how did you get the orange for a head?" "well, first i wished for a pot of never ending money to take care of all my needs for the rest of my life, and poof, there was a pot full of money, more than i can imagine" "Yea! then what happened?" "then i wished for the most beautiful and perfect wife i could ever want, and poof, i got my dream wife, perfect in every way." "What was your third wish?" "well, my third wish was to have a giant orange for a head" rather lame, i know. think about it. so stupid its funny. hell, moby told it. - -dale- We just smiled and waved... smiled and waved... smiled and waved... Sittin on them bags of seeds. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 19 Aug 1999 03:57:16 -0600 From: Daniel Cerman Subject: (mobility) Denver show I just got back from Denver, where Moby put on an excellent show that lasted almost 80 minutes. KTCL hosted the show at the Ogden Theatre, and it was free (though you had to sign up to be a "Team Adventure" member). I was really surprised by how many people showed up. The doors didn't open until 8:00 PM, yet there was a huge line going around the building when I arrived at around 6:30. There were no signs of activity from the tour bus parked out back when I got there. Moby DJed at the Twist & Shout record store at 5:00, but I missed it. Before Moby's performance, we had to endure a long DJ set by Vitamin D and Miss Audry, who served up largely uninspired minimal house tracks. Most people were standing or dancing on the ground floor, but I ended up on the 21-and-over level, with possibly the best view of the stage short of being right in front of it. Moby was supposed to start at 9:15, but ten minutes later someone said that he had just woken up. At about 9:30, Moby's show began, and it was awesome from the get-go. "My Weakness" started playing as darkness and thick stage fog were pierced by diffuse moving blue lights. Moby and his live band (Scott, Greta, and a blonde guy whose name I missed) appeared and the action got underway. There was a ton of variety in the speed and mood of the songs. Here's what was played: My Weakness Find My Baby Machete Porcelain James Bond Theme Go Next Is The E Everloving Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad? If Things Were Perfect Ah Ah Bring Back My Happiness Natural Blues Bodyrock Honey Feeling So Real Thousand Moby was bursting with energy, sometimes playing various guitars, drums/percussion, and synths. The light effects were fantastic, and greatly enhanced the show. You really must see it to believe it. The sound quality left something to be desired, unfortunately. The synths were hard to hear over the drums and general distortion. According to some people I talked to, however, it sounded a lot better on the floor. Most songs were very close to their album/single versions. "James Bond Theme" was notable in that it was significantly different from what I'm used to. It took me awhile before I even recognized it, as Moby gave it lyrics and everything. "Honey" was basically the 118 Mix. After introducing each member of his backup band toward the end of the show, Moby dismissed them from the stage and stood still as "Thousand" played. As it accelerated, he got on top of a keyboard and stretched out his arms amidst a spectacular grand finale of strobing lights, concluding the performance even more dramatically than it began. After buying a couple cool t-shirts, I went to the tour bus. Moby was near it, talking with people and signing autographs. Some people had PLAY flats, but I don't know how they got them. (Anyone?) I got to talk with Moby a little bit, and he said 'hi' to me from Damian, whom he had met the night before in Salt Lake City. :) I also got to step onto his bus and converse with Scott (the drummer). Anyways, it's too bad so many people had to get turned away. Since the show was free, any number of people could have shown up, but the venue doesn't have unlimited capacity. The show was great, and there is just no way that I can adequately relate it via email. Everybody should try to go see Moby, if at all possible. His upcoming tourdates are on the moby.org news page. Daniel moby.org P.S. Thanks to Harry for driving me there and back. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 19 Aug 1999 08:53:00 -0400 From: jgmagnus@bkb.com Subject: (mobility) Sunday, Sunday, Sunday! Sunday kicks major butt!! what else can I say? I certainly am not going to talk about religion. I'm sure there are special lists for that sort of thing. - jayson - -----Original Message----- But does anyone else find "Sunday" to be a REALLY pretty and moving track? It's almost like the End of Everything album. Of course, it might as well be really bad and I don't know it since I'm in one of my depressed moods and I find weird stuff like this appealing sometimes. I just want to know if anyone else finds it really good.

It was May 24, 1995 and I remember that he came to DC on the "Everything is Wrong" tour. He did a signing at HMV Records in Georgetown (now gone) and I got a great photo of me and him. We both look great, a rarity for me. He was incredibly nice and gracious. He signed a flat for my sister (Caterina) and I remember spelling out her name so that he could address it to her. Then when he saw her name, he said, "Oh...Caterina. Why didn't you just say her name?" It was very funny. I never thought he'd actually heard it before. Anyway, that night he played the Black Cat. Senser opened up. They were okay. Moby came out and started with "Hymn". It was very quiet and beautiful, and he just sort of stood there, looking at his feet. Then when it was over, he looked up and said, "Hi...my name is Moby" and started to practically wreck the stage by playing "Ah Ah". It was so incredibly awesome. He had some sound problems that night. He said at one point..."This is so frustrating. It's like you're about to have sex and you're putting on the condom and POOF! You lose it." At one point his sound guy tried to repair something, and Moby played "New Dawn Fades" by Joy Division. He picked the girl standing next to me in the audience to play keyboards, and she was terrific. There were so many great songs that night. But the encore, of course, was "Thousand" and he did that thing where he stood on the keyboard and looked not unlike Christ. It was tremendous. It was not even the best show I've seen him do, but in some ways it was one of the most memorable. It was so exciting to watch him. I cannot WAIT to see him again in Chicago and DC. See some of you there, I hope!

Really? Er, kinda makes you wish you could travle all over the US and have lots of money and buy every thing MOBY puts out and see him like all the time. Which makes me think that seeing MOBY (for us it seems) is kinda like X-Mas. It's a once a year celebration (for us) that happens once a year if conditions are right (think about it, X-Mas is that way :-). We wait and wait for the day and when it comes, it seems so brief. *sigh* Oh also, I saw a used copy (how is that possible?) of "End of Everything" at a record store by my place. It was the import with the track, uh, what is that track called? "Animal...." something. *sigh* But I saw it and it was $30 for what looked like a slightly beaten copy but I did find it under "VoodoChild" instead of MOBY. I was kinda happy but I couldn't buy it since I was broke and I could've had it but then my bf would "own" me as he calls it. He's annoying when he has money. *sigh* - --kimby ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 19 Aug 1999 09:35:50 -0500 From: "Stegenga, Scott" Subject: (mobility) Run Lola Run Saw this excellent piece of celluloid last night. 90 minutes of wild film. In German, Its titled 'Lola rennt'. Anyone know German who can loosely translate? Like another film I've seen, 'Sliding Doors' this film takes the concept of 'what if she did this...' to a cool level. It showcases 3 'episodes' of a girl named Lola who must save her boyfriend, Manni, from getting killed by his mafia boss. He has lost 100,000 Deutche Marks and needs to get that amount in 20 minutes or his boss will suspect he's stealing from him. The eposides highlight her running to her father, a bank president, and maybe asking him for the money, then running to Manni just before he robs a supermarket at noon. There are alot of running shots. Alot. It starts with this phone call to Lola, and the rest of the scenes involver her running to various choices and the outcome for each trek ends differently, although she encounters the same people, and as she encounters a certsin person, the film would then pause to show what happens to that person later on in their life, as if running into Lola has somehow made a point for a certain direction in their life wether being mugged later on, married, or even involved in S&M. Each 'rehash' of events starts over with the shot of a phine receiver coming down on its base thus starting the heavy techno beats again. The prologue is very existential and, how else, German. With this artsy monologue about life's questions and answers all melding onto one or something, but then in kicks this heavy techno beat and it never stops. If techno were even made into a film, this would be its incarnation. This film and 'Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels' are my two favorites this year. The website which has some cool clips is at http://www.spe.sony.com/classics/runlolarun/ The soundtrack is very very cool. - --------------------------------------------- Scott Stegenga - Internet Engineer Tunes.com ...same company, more stuff... 312-642-7560 x109 http://www.tunes.com http://www.rollingstone.com http://www.thesource.com http://www.downbeatjazz.com and many more to come... ------------------------------ End of mobility-digest V2 #86 ***************************** ------------- To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to majordomo@xmission.com with the line "unsubscribe mobility-digest" in the body.
