Kate Bush: LIVE ON STAGE!

OH MY GOD! After 35 years, the iconic, legendary Kate Bush, CBE, is going to play a series of live shows! This is phenomenal and so unexpected--a true once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I mean, seriously, this is a huge, huge, huge, huge, HUGE, HUGE deal. You must understand that this is like getting one more chance to see John, Paul, Ringo, and George play live!

She is booked for 15 nights at the Hammersmith Apollo (formerly the Hammersmith Odeon) in London where she played a series of dates 35 years ago. Tickets go on sale March 28th: see the screen cap from Kate's website below.


There is already some speculation about the title of the show, and the promotional shot you see above which is eerily reminiscent of the photo that accompanied her profound masterpiece, "The Ninth Wave" from her album "The Hounds of Love." Will she be playing "The Ninth Wave?" Will she play old hits? Newer songs? Both?


I am sure the tickets will sell out in mere minutes. And we should be hearing about the concert, along with pictures and videos, after the fact.

Thank you Kate, for deciding to come back to the stage! Break a leg!

Kate Bush is magic. Kate Bush taught me how to fly.

UPDATE: Because of heavy demand, as would be expected, Kate has added seven nights to the already full tour, bringing her engagement to 22 nights! She is now playing to October 1st.

UPDATE 10/2/14: I was lucky enough to get two tickets to see this historic event and posted my review of Kate's show here:
