Get Hot Again with Parachute Woman!

Does this gem have "b-stage" written all over it or what? Then crank out a hard-rockin' version of She Saw Me Coming!

It wasn't totally lamp,
I've done worse myself.
Both tracks you mentioned is what the B-stage was made for.

PW is among my fave tunes, which apparently will disqualify it from b-stage (or a-stage) consideration. Thank god for my everlasting memory of the near-perfect version of this I saw at the Orpheum.

Hell, Nikki, the fans succeeded in getting "Sway" into the setlist, so start a campaign for PW. You got my vote.

Nikkibong, Idea's ALWAYS pop into my head.....Load up your bong with herb, tape all kinds of colored filters cut into triangular shapes on to your TV screen, Turn the color on your TV way down to B / W. Crank up the sound to "DISTORTION PLUS" slip in the DVD for R'n'R Circus, light up your bong, push "PLAY" on DVD machine, forward the DVD to PARACHUTE WOMAN, take some deep hits, lean back and catch that buzz, put some dark sun glasses on, and Dude - it's 2006, fall tour of America....

The Orpheum version is indeed awesome! I never get why they never played this song again. They tried it ones, it was awesome and then never again...

Cheers,
Wuudy

Nikkibong, obviously, since you've been gone for SO long, you tried my idea...how did it turn out for you lad?....

I don't really understand the "b-stage"/"non-b-stage" distinction. Would you care which stage they played it on, if they simply played it?

O well they cant play anything inetesting anymore something about the time it takes to get to the B stage so only Miss You can do???...

and let's not forget that the time it takes to get back exactly equals HTW, so no substitutes allowed there either....

You're trying to make me cry, aren't you?!! No, I didn't get to go! BooHooHoo. That killed me.

Did you fly out especially for that show? (you're from San Fran, right?)

oh, I didn't mean to make a grown woman cry....

Yeah, but you'd have to be an east coaster to call it San Fran (or Frisco, for that matter). Had a great weekend there. I can rub it in more if you haven't had enuff yet....

T&A, You live In SF? In the city or outside?

Re: Get Hot Again with Parachute Woman!

...or near the bridge?
You're lucky to come from the same place as Vertigo, Streets Of San Francisco, and Dirty Harry.

T&A, does the country roads from Vertigo looks the same, now in 2006? Have you tried to find the exact places. It's my favourite Alfred movie, and I think I remember that you liked those movies too.....

Re: Get Hot Again with Parachute Woman!

like alot of movies that were set in SF (Bullitt comes to mind) they took extreme liberties with some of the outlying areas - some of it was filmed up north in the Redwoods - other parts down south. But, yeah, I know much of the area that was used and it hasn't changed much in almost 50 years since Vertigo was filmed. In fact, much of the cityscape remains unchanged....

Hi T&A, go ahead, tell me about it. I actually wouldn't listen to people talking about it because I was so mad that I wasn't able to go, and then of course, I head about the set list, and I was LIVID!!

But I think I'm finally ready to hear about it, so please tell me EVERYTHING. The more details the better. Set the stage, so to speak.
