You and me both Sandra ... I went to her very first concert, The Kick Inside tour (at Poole Arts Centre, as was) with my boyfriend at the time  :)

and was gutted not to be able to go to her last concert, Before The Dawn tour (at the Hammersmith Odeon, as is) ...
just impossible to get a ticket even in the Kate bush fan club early access   :'(

... I cried for days and days ... Ok weeks!

Noooo.....you saw her on her first tour!!??  Oh. I'm so jealous now.

However. I did get to see her at Hammersmith. Don't know how I did it, but I was offered access to presale tickets. Couldn't believe it when I bagged some. Went with my lovely ex-boyfriend...(he of the gold snakeskin print shirt which I made earlier this year)...so, so excited to be in the same room as her.

Yes. 2014. That one.  :) 
It was wonderful. The crowd were happy and friendly. Was asked by a German couple where I'd got my t-shirt from.
Sat next to a man who'd come over from Texas. He'd got tickets for two nights.

The man sat in front of us was from Edinburgh. He'd been the previous night too. Showed us a pic of Keira Knightley on his phone who was there somewhere amongst us.
The night before, he'd spotted Jimmy Page.
People seemed excited to be there.

Later on in the show, KB sat, barefoot at a grand piano, just her, and she played and sang...my friend said he'd have paid just to have seen that. It made his night.
She could have flicked through a magazine for me, and I'd have been happy to have been in the same room as her.  0_0
(Actually, at about £100 a ticket, perhaps not. -< )

The night ended with Cloudbusting. Everyone on their feet and singing along.

Maybe we should have started a KB thread.  -<

But Imi....you were there... At The Beginning!! That's pretty cool. Please tell me you have the t-shirt/tour programme/ticket or some souvenir from back then.

Sadly Nothing ... I was an impoverished misfit and had no money whatsover (BF paid for the tickets)

I did have a programme but that got binned by my dad when I ran away from home .... :'(  :'(  :'(

But ... I do have the memory  <3

You're a pair of Kate Bush bookends!  If she does another concert you MUST go together, to keep the world in balance.   :D
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.
