Has anyone else here seen Laurie Anderson live....

I went back in the 1980's when she was still touring to places like Cleveland...

Amazing and surprisingly funny stuff....

1. I saw her around 1990 in a Philly suburb

I was depressed by the first Gulf War. It was refreshing to hear her views on it. It cheered me up.

It was just her alone on stage with some synthesizers , but she was still superb.

3. Everything was recorded and played out on the various screens she had set up across

the stage...

I was around Cleveland when Pere Ubu and Trent Reznor was playing down in the dives by the river.

I naturally went for all music connected to this kind of stuff, it wasn't what I liked to play when I was in my band but it was good to see what was pushing the envelope at that time.

She came through a few years ago but I was in the hospital so I missed her show.

Curiously, I had invited my future wife to go with me but she begged out and so I took a girl from the next office over from where I worked. She didn't get it. My wife would have. That was my last date with anyone but my wife...

5. Saw her in the summer of 1984.

One of the most interesting, thought-provoking and entertaining artists I have ever encountered. I was just listening to "Big Science" this weekend. She's a treasure.
