LIMITED TIME / LAST TIME

Very common recording but always loved this more than any Glass Spider show, especially for the songs that didn't make the tour setlist. 




David Bowie


Rehearsals for the Glass Spider World Tour

1987-04-xx, unknown rehearsal venue, New York City, NY


NEW YORK'S A GO GO

Label & nr: DAV 1/ 2
Cover: printed full colour cover
Records: 2 CD
Released: 1991
Venue: New York, March/April 1987.
Bonus: 4 page booklet 


COMMENTS: This is an undated rehearsal for the Glass Spider Tour, and it contains rare versions of SHINING STAR / BECAUSE YOU'RE YOUNG / SCREAM LIKE A BABY, all dropped before the premiere show! Lots of talk between the songs and some mistakes now and then. A look at the running order shows that CHINA GIRL was intended as an encore instead of a part of the main set. The sound quality is very good. The title is rather stupid since THE JEAN GENIE isn't played!

My DVD Collection (Pictures)

 Getting some containers off Amazon but will probably be purging a lot. Not even watching anything right now and barely watch any of these. The format is terrible and those slimline drives are just foul. Dual layers? Even if I can get one to successfully burn now it will be unwatchable in a few years. Too bad, love video but can't make a career out of it. Or if I can, lemme know how.

My Want List

it's been awhile, write to ijwthstd AT yahoo DOT com if you can help     **ETERNAL WANT LIST**  (Nothing added since Dec 25 post, just bumping to the top for new users) In this total media universe with everything at my fingertips, individual shows have taken on a lot less importance, however I still want to get my eyes and ears on these. This was copied off a much older list where I deleted several found titles so it's not impossible I'd say I have plenty to trade but I stopped withholding stuff for those purposes years ago. I can always offer up the super secret Mystery Drive list of my friend's rare masters (1971 to 2017) and pull something from there. Really one of the only things I am hoarding is that list only to preserve my sanity. Remember your hoarded recordings are only worth something while there are still people alive who care. Therapy? @ Whisky A Go Go Nov 1992  (this was recorded) Therapy @ The Roxy 5/4/96 (saw this on a list of Westwood One shows,...

The Who 2025 round up

The Who 2025 round up https://pixeldrain.com/l/pa6SQ88X I am just assuming I will be unable to attend the private show Oct 3rd but if you can ease the way anyhow, let me know. So chasing the possible last show ended up being a futile exercise after all. This is all pretty much a blur now but I will do my best. I am way too tired to proof read this. Lots of grueling travel. Might add more tomorrow  ** Night 1 For Joe Perry Project I stayed near my original seat way up high. There are already 2 other sources for this. I so wanted to see a headline show. Not really all that excited at the thought of more Aerosmith shows especially with Yungblud.  The Who - moved into E section around row 8, might be a little overloaded.  I might some day tell the excruciating saga of my extra ticket. Had 2 but my girlfriend couldn't go. She was already taking time off for Nine Inch Nails.m  For the 2nd night I bought a ticket for $34.50 at the box office after asking around for a few mi...
