ETHEL, Joe Jackson, Todd Rundgren 2005 Tour
War Memorial Auditorium, Greensboro, NC, April 20, 2005
Part I: Intro (How About a Little Fanfare?)
So tonight was the night hubby and my two daughters, ages seven and ten, went with me to see this show. What do we call it anyway? It's not just a concert. It isn't ETHEL opening up for Joe Jackson opening up for Todd Rundgren. It needs a name - something along the lines of the Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus. Hmmm, I gotta come up with something to call this "conglomeration." Well, that's too heavy a word. I need something lighter. Well, until I come up with something better, I'm going to call this show "The Ethereal Six." Inspired by the name ETHEL, but also harkens back to the days of "Initiation" and "RA" when thanks to Utopia and Todd I had pyramids all over the place (each with one side facing magnetic north, of course) and I was reading Madame Blavatsky and CW Leadbetter.
Please keep in mind this is not a review. It's an essay. And essays can get pretty boring. I really just wrote it for myself to document the evening.
