4.3. The Convention (Kate Bush Info)
It has really happened to us!
May 8, 1994, London's Hippodrome. Short list of events:
- lots of rare videos
- lots of live music/dance from fans
- three new Kate songs: The Man I Love, Sexual Healing, and a brand new
US dance remix of Rubberband Girl
- a raffle which got the lucky winner the Japanese gold record for
Lionheart as well as a kiss stolen from Kate
- an auction hosted by Dave from Homeground and Del Palmer where
super-rare ("one exists, two exist, ...") stuff went away for
2230 pounds (all profits, including these, went to the Great Ormund
Street Children's Hospital)
- a quiz that was won by the Norfolk Alchemists the second time in a row
(next time we will practise a bit!)
- lots of merchandise, some for money, some for free
- Paddy Bush and Colin Lloyd Tucker (Bushtucker) presenting their album
Skyscraping
- The biggest act of Happyvangelising to date
- Kate herself appearing for a couple of minutes, presenting the main
price of the raffle to the lucky winner and presenting her new film,
- The Line, The Cross, And The Curve
- Kate inspired disco
- and, last but not least, lots of fun
Thanks to everyone involved, and see you next time!
