Public Enemy and XTC Contributed to My Night

Spending money to see Tricky in 2008 is not something I was willing to do. The only thing I ever liked came out in 1995.

The email from The Trocadero changed that.

Enter to win. Free tickets to see Tricky.

I won.

I suspect the tickets were not selling. In a late effort to fill the room. A ticket giveaway. A contest.

Their motives were not important. I was going to see Tricky.

We ran into Tim. We discussed how empty the space was.

I couldn't imagine people spending fifteen dollars to see Tricky. In 2008. In Philadelphia.

Tim assured me the new album was good. Though it hadn't been released yet.

I was curious to hear new material.

I did. My expectations were exceeded. Cathy's expectations were exceeded. The music. The show. Ultimately. The album.

Tricky - Knowle West Boy. Target. New.
