good pity that it got away and no money damn

sold out !

If you're crazy enough, I saw some tickets on ebay around 70 euros each. And the price should a least double in the month to come. I almost wish I had gotten a second one to make some money on the side.... But that's a shitty thing to do, anyway.

When you look on the site of Olympia, it says that the tickets are sold out 'temporaly'. Does anybody know what that means? We want to go to the show, but it seems Olympia tickets are numbered, so if you buy two tickets from the non-official sites, they probabely aren't next to each other.
Anybody has (or knows) tickets for sale for this show?

Less than 30 hours to go !

Does anyone know if there will be an opening act ? I can't find anything about it, so I tend to think there isn't one.

It's tomorrow !!! I can't wait !
There will be an opening act : Jessie Evans

I'm on my way, at last !
I'll be back soon with a quick review and/or setlist.

Have a great time Ziggy, and then tell us all about it!
Cheers,
Richard

A few things : The band played tighter than in Lille three month ago. They did a great job on the fast tracks (Search & Destroy, I Got A Right, also a great Gimme Danger) and James Williamson definitly got his mojo back. This being said, the show also lacked the intensity of the Lille show, and I was desapointed by the setlist : no Gimme Some Skin, no Cry For Me, same as in Lille, minus I Need Somebody and plus No Fun.

Raw power
Kill city
Search & destroy
Gimme danger
Cock in my pocket
Shake appeal
1970
LA Blues / Night theme / Skullring
Beyond the law
Johanna
I got a right
I wanna be your dog
Your pretty face is going to hell
Open up & bleed

Death trip
Fun house
Penetration
No fun

80 minutes

Well this was fast!!

Wow - the show's only been over for a few minutes!
Thanks for the setlist Ziggy, pity it wasn't a little more adventurous.
And thanks for the youtube link Studioguy. Really fast work there. And Iggy's jeans actually fall down momentarily!
Cheers,
Richard

Yup, regarding Iggy's behavior : he was topeless after the end of the first scream of "Raw power" (why does he bother dressing up in the first place?), he did something like three stage dives, and his pants kept slipping (it really seemed accidental).

Great version of this, nice and bluesy sounding with Steve blowing on his sax like that.

Here's Shake Appeal with our own Derek See guarding James Willamson's pedals


Kill City

really good show olympia
maybe just a little under Lille, maybe because Lille was my first show of the Williamson era;

great anyway

Was on stage (Lille too) guy topless making rabit ear behind iggy's head during shake appeal...
trousers going down more often as usual..wanted effect + he threw his belt from the stage at one moment (1 hour or something)...
He divesd 2 times from stage i think and walked along the stage down of it a few times, he took something like 6 or 7 bottles of water above his head... he spitted on his chest at one time, asked the name of a girl at the balcony he will never change good good iguana!!

would be great to include few other songs like passenger and lust for like done during a bresilian show
