08/27/05 Ste. Adele, QC Bourbon Street North
The venue was great. $20 for parking though was a killer! The sound was great, but the sound level of Billy's voice was pretty low, except when he yelled, but considering it is Billy Idol, the original Rebel Yell, it was OK. From what I hear, the sound in the back was better.
Steve Stevens was great. Totally old school rock-n-roll. Cigarette hanging out of the mouth, playing the guitar behind his head. He looked like he was catching up to Keith Richards! You have to give it to Billy, still rockin close to 50, with the spiky hairdo. Loved every minute of it.
All the classics where played, plus a few new songs. Playing to the crowd, Billy tossed out these picnic plates, signed by himself. I caught one, but the tall guy behind me had a better grip. He gave it to Coleen, but her husband already had one, so she gave it right back to me. Cool souvenir of my anniversary night.
I have to say that Bourbon Street North was a great venue, and the party continued after Billy left the building. Oh yeah, watch out for the girl at the main bar...they had to be fake for sure.
Worth the 50 bucks? Hell yeah.
