Paris 2002

I am so excited about this concert I am literally wetting my pants. For American subscribers, I mean my underpants. Roll on Thursday. I am not a fanatic, just an hardcore appreciator of deep subsonic bass in auditoriums. Good sonics will make you live longer. To go to this concert I have had to: a) tell my girlfriend that I love her but this is something I MUST do (she is too busy to go anyway but you know how it goes). b) I have just started a Masters Degree and my presence is urgently required on Thursday - I will not be there (yeehaa!) c) I work in education and this is enrolment week. I have personally contacted all new students and told them NOT to appear on Thursday as our learning centre will be undergoing some important but hazardous building work. d) I will be claiming that I am sick on the day (How could you?) e) Frustrate the Credit Card people by booking flights and tickets I can't afford f) My mother is very ill and will be visiting her doctor for her final consultation that day Nah, only kidding about f) but the rest is for real. Right now to the serious business. My brother (who taught me all there is to know about KW) can no longer make it to Thursday night's concert (8pm). He is obliged to work (he has standards unlike me). So I have a spare ticket. I booked the moment that Brazilian guy informed us all that the concert was announced. Whether this means I have good seats I know not, perhaps someone could enlighten me. Is it first come, first serve? Anyway, my ideal companion would be female. About 5"7-9inches (sorry, we are taking a while to go metric here in the UK), brunette, adventurous, likes a good laugh attractive but personality is more important. Oh fuck it, nice biteable tits and cute ass and has that natural playfulness and go-to-bed-eyes. A FREE TICKET TO LISTEN TO THE MOST SUBLIME MUSIC SINCE BEETHOVEN LOST HIS HEARING AWAITS YOU! Why do I get the funny feeling Noone is listening. Adios amigos. See you all in Paris. I'll be the one sitting on my own with a can of Stella wrapped in a brown paper bag with an empty seat next to me. I could always sell it. over n out All bound for mu-mu land mu-mu land

Leon said "And yes, I was there in Karlsruhe (1998) and now in Gent (2002)... I must be one heck of a lucky bastard :-)" A question I have... neon lights... can you some how describe that? Maybe comparing it with the original... and maybe with the 1981 live version (if you've heard it?) With thanks.. and... Keep Werking John www.keepwerking.co.uk

KW at Gent

Hi guys, nice to hear some info about KW gig in Belgium. Sony laptops, uh? People, send more reports to the list, please. I have some questions about the gig. Probably the luck guys in Gent could help me: 1. What about the new version of Neon Lights? Any difference from the original version? And what about the videos on this song? 2. The robots were not there (probably some problems with their european passports... hehehe). They played The Robots only with the screen robots? 3. Can anybody post the the correct sequence of the songs? 4. Which Expo 2000 version they played? Any video screen? 5. Some guys told us there's some mistakes at the concert. More details, please? 6. Any photo or even a live recording? 7. Comparing with 97/98 concerts, this 2002 gig was better or not? peace Nicolau www.kraftworld.hpg.com.br
