lineage: Audience recording. "Lyon 1987" Cdr>Eac>Wav>Flac

Description : The first Bowie show I saw on that beautiful Sunday evening of June '87...
The first part was played by a french group from Lyon called Kent who was very well received,
singing some funny songs for what I can remember.
Bowie waited for the night to come on stage, and the stadium wasn't what we call a hysterical one... Very calm...
Some had come just curious to see the Bowie show they had so much heard of on the French Tv and on the radio...
Others had come with small kids on their shoukders, and I knew some people who were only there to see Frampton on stage !!!
There were evidently some old true fans too with their Ziggy T-shirts and finally me with my newly bought black beautiful T-shirt too.
I was somewhat deceived at the time by the stadium atmosphere : no massive screams from the audience, just claps here and then...
Years later, I have now a bit of nostalgia about that night, knowing how lucky I was to see a show of that tour.
For the encores , with 'Time', I can remember I was searching desperately Bowie on stage till I finally found him when I saw everyone
looking at the top of the Spider !
A great moment for a great song, never to remember !
There exists at least 2 recordings from that night, as there was a guy just behind me who was recording the show too with his small tape recorder...
