Bonus: Before the Dawn – Five Years Later

Five years ago this week, in August 2014, a huge event happened in Kate Bush fandom: the beginning of Kate’s London residency, Before the Dawn. It wasn’t just another rock music gig. In the way that only Kate can do it, Before the Dawn was a theatrical experience like none other and, most importantly, it was her first set of live shows since 1979. It was also an event we all hope will eventually come out on DVD, but at least we have the audio for now. (Still BOOO anyway!) While our host didn’t get to see the show (BOOOO!), Cecilee has gotten to talk with a fan who was there! So in honor of the shows and also the episodes to come for this season (we’ll go into And Dream of Sheep and the rest of the Ninth Wave next week!), we’re talking with Elizabeth Bracy, a long-time Kate fan from Portland, Oregon. Elizabeth made the trek to London and saw the show and she’s here to talk about her experience seeing the show, what it was like getting tickets, AND…. seeing The Ninth Wave live on stage for the first time.
