Despite the fact that David and I returned home from Berlin > NYC late Sunday night, I had procured a ticket to see Peter Murphy live in concert here in LA last night and there was no way I was gonna miss the show. Normally, when I return home from traveling, I hole myself up in my apartment and refuse to come out for a few days. BUT, I really wanted to see Peter live in concert so … to the Mayan Theater I went last night.


I saw Peter Murphy at South by Southwest in Austin, TX 2008 but the last time I saw him perform live on stage was when he appeared as surprise guest performer for the final NYC NIN shows back in 2009. I’ve been a fan for many years but this was the first time I got to see a full concert from the man. He is such a great performer, very talkative, very spirited and he still sounds fantastic! I managed to record his entire performance of Cuts You Up, which you can watch in full below:


Altho the show ran late (with 2 long encores) and despite the fact that I was dead tired, I had a great time and I’m so glad I made my way out to see his show last night.

Tonight, David and I are planning on seeing Battle: Los Angeles so … we’ll see if that actually happens. I may want to hibernate tonight but … the weather is so nice and warm here this week, I might not want to waste it. I hope your Tuesdays are going well. Is it the weekend yet?
