Siouxsie Sioux - Irving Plaza - NYC - 2/9/08

Currently at work listening to Hyeana thinking I really should of written about the Siouxsie show already but I didn't get around to it. Anyways....god where to begin. First off the tickets were a little high but I didn't care. Of course I go into this thinking she is going to play all the old classic Siouxsie stuff - she didn't. I really didn't care though. By the end of the show I was so amazed at her performance and how she carried herself being what 50 now! Absolutely amazing. She did manage to play three old Siouxsie and the Banshees tracks pretty early on in the show. I remember typing the info in my phone while trying not to spill my vodka. The 4th, 5th and 6th songs were as follows - Dear Prudence, Hong Kong Garden and then NightShift. I can't even begin to describe the audience reaction when Hong Kong Garden started. I had seen Siouxsie and the Banshees twice before this, once in 1992 I believe and then on a Lollapalooza tour - not sure what year. I had also seen the Creatures but something about seeing just her - really just an all around good time and a great show.
