Subject: (mobility) An open letter to moby / Washington, DC Concert.
Hello,
I was excited when I first heard of moby's upcoming tour. I have
been a moby fan for a few years now, I can still remember that magical
moment when I heard my first moby album way back on a summer
afternoon, I was instantly hooked. Well, I live in maryland, very
close to DC and saw that moby was playing and the nation on Sept.
10th, but low and behold it states the show only open to those ages
19+. I'm 16 and would deeply love to see moby live, from what I've
read here his shows are amazing and unquie, I don't want to let this
opportunity go by.
I know that it is mainly the venue who makes these rules, but can't
their be any exceptions, this _is_ moby.
I need help, I don't know what to do, I was thinking of getting a fake
ID just for this show, but I am not one to break the law...
A very sad moby fan,

Hmmm...if it were any other venue you might have a chance, but Nation got
busted BIG TIME a couple of months ago: drugs, sex, underage drinking, etc.
It was all on the news. I'm sure they'll be pretty strict at Moby. It will
probably be a late show. And no offense to you young people, I could tell at
the Chicago show last night who was under 18 and who wasn't. Yes, working at
the 9:30 Club taught me well. So if you are that daring, get a fake ID, but
remember, Moby will probably be around again anyway. Is it worth the risk?
Probably...but use your best judgment here.
The Chicago show was good, but maybe more mellow than previous Moby shows.
It was neat to hear all the new stuff, it sounded great. I might be
interviewing Moby for my web page, so perhaps I can ask a few questions from
the Mobility list and then post it here. But I'll let you know if it follows
through.
One little sidenote: let's all try to practice concert etiquette, okay? Last
night in Chicago was a great show, but the frat boys at the Metro really
began to annoy me. Leave the testosterone bonding shit at home. Also, when
people have been standing for an hour or so to see the band, please don't
push your way in front of someone who has waited patiently. If you need to
be up front, get there early like everyone else. And if you MUST go ahead,
ask someone politely before you push your way through. It is REALLY annoying
to have a boyfriend with a short girlfriend push their way up and then suck
face throughout "Everloving". Give the song (and the performer) a bit more
respect. After having been to 250 concerts in my life, these things kind of
piss me off. (Great, now I sound like a whiny bitch...I'm really not! ;-)
Thanks...and just have fun at the show! Dance your ass off and be sure to
note how Moby says "THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!".
XO,
Joe

No you don't...not at all...I've been to more than my fair share of shows as
well...and everytime I go to one full of people like that I say it's gonna
be my last...a few bad apples can really hurt a show for others...(luckily
the Austin crowd was really nice...except they were too still...I was
practically the only one dancing up front)

manage to do it?)
and to everyone else who's already seen moby-
how high was the glowstick to people ratio at the shows you were at?
did the show lean towards rave crowd or "regular concert" crowd? or was it
(which i think

Hi Kelbert,
I met up with another list member (brad) and we drove up to pick up some
friends and then drove to dallas the next day. We had a lot of funny and its
great to get to meet some other moby fans. We met a few others at the show and
that was pretty cool. If you get the chance to meet other mobility members,
take it! I had a lot of fun.
Also, at our show i think i saw about 7 or 8 glo sticks the whole night.
It was kind of a combination crowd. People were dancing and having fun but
they also crowded around the stage. Best audience i've ever seen :)

It was a good mix of people and vegetables. It would've been better if Greta
* Scott had some celery of cauliflower or something. ;)
Additional stage antics: Moby asked us if we wanted to see his tits. A
concert crowd loves stuff like this, the response was roaring, and Moby
lifted his shirt and did some hip grinds.
He introduced "If Things Were Perfect" by telling us that the song was
inspired by his 3 a.m. walks through New York City in the freezing cold.
Somewhere in there he said "because I'm the only one crazy enough to like 3
a.m. walks in 20 below weather..."
Somebody in front told he he was sexy. (I thought she said "play Feeling So
Real!" but Moby respnded "I'm sexy? No." He invited the person to gratify
him/herself in the washroom.
He introduced Bodyrock and Honey as sexy songs.
He asked for quiet for a quiet, peaceful, romantic love song, and proceeded
to plunge full steam into a pounding "Ah-Ah", which STILL has my left ear
ringing 36 hours later. (literally, no embellishment here) That'll teach me
not to stand so close to the speakers.
Ok, I think that's it. (yer all prolly tired of hearing about the Chicago
show by now)

Okay, so this has probably been said already (since I get the digest thingie
and it's delayed somewhat) but who cares. I'm still gonna say it anyway...
Rolling Stone did a half page thingie on Moby in the September 16 issue right
before the Jay Gordon thingie. Two pictures and probably 2/5 of a page
worth...but still, it's something. More than I've been in there. Which is
never. Hee hee...
Anyway, read it. Sure it's full of repetitive stuff (just a show review) but
we're on the step to getting him noticed!! And I'm gonna vote for Moby at
least 200 times tomorrow on TRL. And include Sifl and Olly stuff...I didn't
watch them much, but when I did, they cracked me up.
Finally got my End of Everything cd today, too. Kicks so much ass. Although,
now that I think of it, all his stuff kicks ass. One more thing, has anyone
heard of a clear vinyl that Moby did? I don't remember the name of it. Guess
that would help, huh? Damn I wish I'd written that down. Oh well...if you've
ever heard of that, please to tell me cause I just bought one from some
person and need to know if I'm wasting money or not.

I will definitely be going! I am going with four or five of my friends,
some of which are fans of moby, some of which are going just for the show.
I should be easy to spot, I will be wearing blue jeans, a white t shirt
with a picture of moby, on the front (the same picture seen in the liner
notes of the Moby album, the one with Moby grabbing his wrist, and looking
distraught or angered (not sure their). I have long hair, at least long
enough to have it in a pony tail, just about to my shoulders, and should be
wearing a black redskins hat (not sure on the hat part but maybe.) And
should be doing a lot of dancing (half crazily, of course). ummmm.....I can
hear those strings of GO already, man I can't wait.
I should also let it be known that Much music is running an episode of the
New Music, which will include a segment/and a new televison interview with
Moby on Oct. 5. Hear is what the web site had to say about the segment:
'Moby mined the audio archives at Washington's Smithonian instutute
for blues samples for his stunning new album, "Play". The NewMusic catches
up with the well-spoken Moby about one of this year's truly great albums.'
Coooool, this should be a good show then, and the best thing is this could
only mean that a Spotlight episode should only be a short time away :)
Spotlight is a tv show on much music where they will dedicate a half hour's
time (no commercials) to playing videos by a particular artist which means
finally I will be able to get a few video's on tape.

wow,
when i was 12
it was 1967,
i was send to dancing lesson, to learn all about the steps,
one, two, one, one, two, one
about the tango and the twist, the jive and what have you, quickstep?
any of you had a classical education in DANCE?
the problem was, it was on saturday afternoon, from 2 till 4 and
that time were the MONKEYS on tv, life and for the first time!
these were the first tv's that were in the daytime (before 18.00
hours) which was already NEW in those days, and then you had to go
away from home, on yo bicycle all the way to Zaandam, to go to your
dancing class, where the first time in yo life you'd feel the breast
of a woman held close against you,
and in the mean time, on yo jelly telly at home, a sort of MTV in
advance, yo' Monkeys were playing... stupid songs played-back...
..but yo didnt have a vcr in those days, so at nites, when kissed by
your first girlfriend, yo'd have to ask yo' sister, hey what was going
on on TV? and she, the bitch, wouldnt tell you...
so yo go to yo mom, and say hey... she won't tell me.. what was going
on with the Monkeys, and my mom said: hey how was the dancing lesson?
yo did the Slow-fox? or the quickstep?
and then yo go; hey i got a crush on Marjan Boersma can I help it?
(in the blue dress)
i still love her,
thankz Monkeys,,,!
