In order to properly celebrate the "birthday" of one of the most famous record from The B-52's, let's enjoy a show from the first american leg of the Cosmic Tour. People from Boston were one of the luckiest people on earth back in '89, since The B's came to perform 3 shows in their "warm-up" tour in summer, and then came back in november for two sold-out shows at the Orpheum Theater. I've already uploaded their Citi Club performance a few months ago, but I wanted to upload this one for a reason : it's the only time (for now) we can hear "Ain't It A Shame" performed live by the whole band on a bootleg recording ! It's also my favourite performance from the "Cosmic Tour", with a great audience and an extended second encore with the popular favourite "Whammy Kiss" performed with the usual show closer "Channel Z". I guess it's one of the longest gig the band performed in the 80's, so kudos to the taper and the people that uploaded the bootleg on the internet : it's a real gem ! The B-52's (1989) were : Kate Pierson : vocals, keyboards, guitar Fred Schneider : vocals, percussions Keith Strickland : guitar Cindy Wilson : vocals, percussions + Zach Alford : drums Pat Irwin : keyboards, guitar Sara Lee : bass
