Oakland (October 4), but two of the songs were post-production dubbed and not truly live: STAND BACK and LEATHER.

Always got a kick of her confused introduction of Beauty and the Beast. "This is a story about a prince who was turned into a beast because we dont know what he did."

She said some . . . uhh . . . interesting things in October, introducing BEAUTY. Once, she even said that Beauty killed Beast and he “rose up” and carried her skyward. She got a plug in, too, for Jean Cocteau’s movie. At one of the stops, she sang the line about “My love is a man who hasn’t been tamed,” and Stevie stomped her little foot and ad libbed “He’s a total fox.” This drew a big, noisy hoot from her sisters of the moon. She was completely enamored of the fairy-tale atmosphere she had created at her concerts. Meanwhile, thousands of kids (and adults) are up there in the rafters, thinking she was quite daft. It was a great time. She really was one of those silent movie queens, embalmed in their narcissism. She was Ziggy Stardust, Theda Bara, and Princess Turandot all come to life.
