19/02/99 - KAUFLEWER CLUB, ZURICH Review by Frances: At 8.20 We finally were at the club, but it seemed as if all the other people had the same idea and came with the car, so we had to drive around for another 10 minutes and look for a parking place. Luckily found on then pretty close... actually it was meant for buses (hope my car doesn't get megalomaniac now ;) ). We got out of the car, walked fast around the corner and entered in the club. It was about half full already but it was still possible to go pretty close to the stage, so finally we stood about 7, 8 meters from the stage, right in front of Bryan.
Exactly at 9 pm the lights went down, everybody screemed and yelled and then we heard the guitar intro of Summer of '69, then the lights went up again and there they were, the milky guys :)). My oh my, that was a look! All dressed in white, white Marshall towers, white drums, white guitars... I thought I had to get my sunglasses 8-), heehee! In the beginning it seemed to us that Bryan was not in a very good mood, he didn't speak one word, didn't announce the songs, but after about 4, 5 songs they played "getaway" and from them he seemed to thaw up (sp?) and from now on it was a real pleasure :-D. They played for about 1 hour 20 minutes, and then did two encores. Here's the songs I remember right now: '69
After the encores they disappeared, the lights went on and slowly people spread away. We went to the bar having a beer and making some more photos, then we thought of leaving and driving back home. When we walked toward the exit we saw that there was a separate area built with tables, all with a "reserve" sign. I asked the guy standing there: "Are there some high guest expected?" He: yes. Me: "Very high guest?" He: yes, very high guest. Me: "Extremely hight guest?" He: Well, the expected guest were extremely high on stage before! Me:"What time?" He: in about 30 minutes. So we decided to wait and took place right in front of this area which was separated by ropes. We stood there for some time, our legs slowly grew in our bellies ;) and finally I saw Bryan walking toward us, now completely dressed in black, looking down on his feet, accompained by two healthy looking ;) security guys. They passed right by us and I followed them to look where they go: they went to the stage, up and disappeared behind. We thought now that he'll be back in a few moments and we probably get our CD-booklets signed which we brought with us. But nothing..... we waited and waited...... at about 15 minutes before 1 am we decided to leave since we were sure he was nicely huddled in the sheets of his cosy warm bed 'cos he has to fly back to germany today... and we had to drive back home for another hour, still in the pouring rain. Anyway it was a great night and definitely "a night I will be able to remember" |
