Hmmm...if it were any other venue you might have a chance, but Nation got busted BIG TIME a couple of months ago: drugs, sex, underage drinking, etc. It was all on the news. I'm sure they'll be pretty strict at Moby. It will probably be a late show. And no offense to you young people, I could tell at the Chicago show last night who was under 18 and who wasn't. Yes, working at the 9:30 Club taught me well. So if you are that daring, get a fake ID, but remember, Moby will probably be around again anyway. Is it worth the risk? Probably...but use your best judgment here. The Chicago show was good, but maybe more mellow than previous Moby shows. It was neat to hear all the new stuff, it sounded great. I might be interviewing Moby for my web page, so perhaps I can ask a few questions from the Mobility list and then post it here. But I'll let you know if it follows through. One little sidenote: let's all try to practice concert etiquette, okay? Last night in Chicago was a great show, but the frat boys at the Metro really began to annoy me. Leave the testosterone bonding shit at home. Also, when people have been standing for an hour or so to see the band, please don't push your way in front of someone who has waited patiently. If you need to be up front, get there early like everyone else. And if you MUST go ahead, ask someone politely before you push your way through. It is REALLY annoying to have a boyfriend with a short girlfriend push their way up and then suck face throughout "Everloving". Give the song (and the performer) a bit more respect. After having been to 250 concerts in my life, these things kind of piss me off. (Great, now I sound like a whiny bitch...I'm really not! ;-) Thanks...and just have fun at the show! Dance your ass off and be sure to note how Moby says "THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!".

We had a lot of funny and its great to get to meet some other moby fans. We met a few others at the show and that was pretty cool. If you get the chance to meet other mobility members, take it! I had a lot of fun. Also, at our show i think i saw about 7 or 8 glo sticks the whole night. It was kind of a combination crowd. People were dancing and having fun but they also crowded around the stage.

It would've been better if Greta * Scott had some celery of cauliflower or something. ;) Additional stage antics: Moby asked us if we wanted to see his tits. A concert crowd loves stuff like this, the response was roaring, and Moby lifted his shirt and did some hip grinds. He introduced "If Things Were Perfect" by telling us that the song was inspired by his 3 a.m. walks through New York City in the freezing cold. Somewhere in there he said "because I'm the only one crazy enough to like 3 a.m. walks in 20 below weather..." Somebody in front told he he was sexy. (I thought she said "play Feeling So Real!" but Moby respnded "I'm sexy? No." He invited the person to gratify him/herself in the washroom. He introduced Bodyrock and Honey as sexy songs. He asked for quiet for a quiet, peaceful, romantic love song, and proceeded to plunge full steam into a pounding "Ah-Ah", which STILL has my left ear ringing 36 hours later. (literally, no embellishment here) That'll teach me not to stand so close to the speakers. Ok, I think that's it.

I'm still gonna say it anyway... Rolling Stone did a half page thingie on Moby in the September 16 issue right before the Jay Gordon thingie. Two pictures and probably 2/5 of a page worth...but still, it's something. More than I've been in there. Which is never. Hee hee... Anyway, read it. Sure it's full of repetitive stuff (just a show review) but we're on the step to getting him noticed!! And I'm gonna vote for Moby at least 200 times tomorrow on TRL. And include Sifl and Olly stuff...I didn't watch them much, but when I did, they cracked me up. Finally got my End of Everything cd today, too. Kicks so much ass. Although, now that I think of it, all his stuff kicks ass. One more thing, has anyone heard of a clear vinyl that Moby did? I don't remember the name of it. Guess that would help, huh? Damn I wish I'd written that down. Oh well...if you've ever heard of that, please to tell me cause I just bought one from some person and need to know if I'm wasting money or not.

I am going with four or five of my friends, some of which are fans of moby, some of which are going just for the show. I should be easy to spot, I will be wearing blue jeans, a white t shirt with a picture of moby, on the front (the same picture seen in the liner notes of the Moby album, the one with Moby grabbing his wrist, and looking distraught or angered (not sure their). I have long hair, at least long enough to have it in a pony tail, just about to my shoulders, and should be wearing a black redskins hat (not sure on the hat part but maybe.) And should be doing a lot of dancing (half crazily, of course). ummmm.....I can hear those strings of GO already, man I can't wait. I should also let it be known that Much music is running an episode of the New Music, which will include a segment/and a new televison interview with Moby on Oct. 5. Hear is what the web site had to say about the segment: 'Moby mined the audio archives at Washington's Smithonian instutute for blues samples for his stunning new album, "Play". The NewMusic catches up with the well-spoken Moby about one of this year's truly great albums.' Coooool, this should be a good show then, and the best thing is this could only mean that a Spotlight episode should only be a short time away :) Spotlight is a tv show on much music where they will dedicate a half hour's time (no commercials) to playing videos by a particular artist which means finally I will be able to get a few video's on tape.
