[kj] ot. new bauhaus C.D, ;( "here come the comedown.."

[Bette Dillinger]

I saw Peter Murphy a few years ago at a bar called "Industry".....it was fantastic.  He even did some mime moves in honor of Bowie! The only weird part was when a 15 year old girl rushed the stage in a black wedding dress and gave him roses (it was a very small place), screaming her head off about her love for him.  He was very kind to her.
 
Does anyone know the story about Madonna trying to pick up the keyboardist on his first solo tour?  He has told it in a few interviews.

   Last time i saw Peter Murphy sing was at the Haus of Blus a few years back. 
He closed the show with David Bowie's "Space Oddity" and everyone was blown 
away. Everyone left speechless, sublimely satiated, and awed. 
(Is it possible to go into a good state of shock?)
  Funny during that show, one of the guitarists had to use the bathroom halfway thru 
the set -- so the band waited for him. We all just sort of stood there, as Peter talked 
to the crowd.

Enough to insist Bauhaus be featured at the beginning of the otherwise dull early 80's vampire movie "The Hunger."T.B. _______________________________________________Gathering mailing listGathering at misera.nethttp://four.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/gathering
