We’ll spend some time together…
Judging by the MBs and the e-mails I’ve received over the last couple of days (Thanks Squeakie et al.) many of you are already aware of the current issue of Entertainment Weekly (May 31st, 2002). The magazine has loads of great pictures of DB and Moby together, and a very entertaining interview with the pair.
Here’s an excerpt from the piece that concerns the first time Moby ever saw DB live in concert, as mentioned in the news earlier this month (05/01/02 SNIPPET: MOBY: “BOWIE IS UNTOUCHABLE”):
MOBY: You did the coolest thing I’ve ever seen a musician do on stage. It was at Giants Stadium and it was during ”Young Americans.” It got to the part where you said, ”Ain’t there one damn song that can make me…” The audience goes crazy. You sing it again. The audience goes nuts. ”Ain’t there one damn song that can make me…” And you fell down onto the stage.
BOWIE: And I just stayed there, right? I remember.
MOBY: You stayed there for about 10 minutes.
BOWIE: I know. I pushed it.
MOBY: For the first minute, everyone was going nuts, but then you didn’t get up. You didn’t move. People were getting uncomfortable.
EW: What were you doing down there?
BOWIE: Just seeing how far I could take it.
EW: And what was going through your head?
BOWIE: ”Uh, am I going to get bottled for this?”
We’ll hopefully post some exclusive pictures from the Entertainment Weekly shoot over the next week or so, but in the meantime, you can go check out a few more, and part of the interview, by clicking on either of the images above.
