Five


Cyndi Lauper in her "At Last" concert, New York, 2004

I want to dedicate this little blog to Cyndi Lauper. In an hour or so we are leaving for her Amsterdam concert - her Bring Ya To The Brink World Tour. That was her latest but not one of her best albums.

We fear she is on a sales trip for this latest album. Her 2003/2004 New York "At Last" performance and her 2003 "The Body Acoustic" are/were her (and our) climaxes - musically speaking. We hope she does some work from these albums.

Now we're back and it was a great show, also Rosy and the Goldbugs as the supporting act were great. It was a smashing rock show, she was in her classy black and purple dress, great voice as ever, good sound, Cyndi was energetic and the public was also great.

Her encore-1 "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" was with Rosy, Pixy, and Plums (all of the Goldbugs) - just Hot.

Her encore-2 "True Colors" is her tribute to her lesbian sister and all other gays/lesbians. This song was of course very well recieved by the Amsterdam public.

We were standing just behind the sound guy and the photographers. I could exchange some info and bytes with the photographing girls; so maybe we can expect some exclusive pictures in the next few days (thank you girls in advance).

Just four to six hours after the concert, there were the first tubes. This is a nice one.


Her "Echo" song from her "Bring Ya To The Brink" was not bad at all.

And if you wonder, why I have a crush on this lady, you should look at this 20 yo. clip from Paris.

Enjoy
