Peabody's Down Under

I just wanted to re-live my LB experience. He was playing at Peabody's Down Under ( a tiny little bar in Cleveland's entertainment district downtown)

I paid like 15 bucks and there were no chairs in this little dive bar. So i stook right below him sort of off right center. Isn't that weird? (this was his Cradle tour of course). This was an absolutely incredible show. I will never forget it. He sweats and sprays too much however!! But who cares when you are that close to your hero.

I had same experience at Christine's solo tour in 1984. Cleveland Agora she had a Grand Piano on the right and I sat with my parents right below her. And she smiled at my parents and I. I went into shock when she smiled at me. She didn't sweat on me!!!

Ooooh, I'm so jealous. That Lindsey-performance must have been awesome. In such a cosy setting. Freakin'!!!!

I hope he comes back to Peabody's for his next solo tour. I would love to see him at a small venue! I wonder if he will go for larger venues, like Blossom, if and when he does another solo tour?

You know, I always admired LB and CM for doing the small club tour. I don't see it happening again but never say never.

I'm sort of glad LB and CM aren't as big as SN. Hence the small venues. I would be really cool to see SN play in a bar and I don't mean the HOB. Maybe in my next life.
