Mirage Tourbook: Why Not?

[macmar71]

I think the US Fest started on Sept 5 and I think in an interview I saw with Lindsey on MTV, he mentioned they were a few shows into the tour. I also think I heard somewhere that the last show was in Houston, TX on Halloween night.
I think the tour was cut short due to Stevie wanting to get back into the studio to work on Wild Heart and with her best friend Robin's passing around the Mirage tour, it was not a great time for her to be on tour. I think the other members just followed suit and did their own projects as well. JMO.

Of course I was kidding. I don't think Eraserhead has EVER been accused of not having enough hair.

was the "mirage" tour around 3 weeks in the fall of '82? anyone have the actual tour schedule to post? anybody know why lindsey always wore "that hat" around that time?

It was about two months. Started Sept. 1 in North Carolina & ended Oct. 31 in Austin. At the Orange County show, attendees got a little blue fold-over card with printed info about Robin Anderson & the City of Hope on it. There weren't any cards or flyers at other California shows, just the typical sales booth ****.

If I had my choice to have had a tourbook or a rendition of "Gold Dust Woman" that year, I'd have to choose the latter.

I have my ticket stubs somewhere. Let the search begin..........
