rufus!!!

last night was the night...Rufus' Wainwright first performance in Israel...the chosen place was the Heichal Hatarbut, the theater where the Israeli Philharmonic plays...it was FULL of people, specially gay people (more gays than in a Halloween party)...it was amazing!
he played for almost 2 hours, alone in front of the piano or playing acoustic guitar. his mom joined for some songs too.
he is so crazy "fagulous", wearing a really crazy suit, alternating sad songs and jokes, playing some of his classics - Gay Messiah, Cigarettes and Chocolate milk, Going to a Town, Poses, and more) and some new material. it was a magic night and the annoying Israeli audience went crazy with every song...
Beside the two pics from the show, I leave you the clip of Over the Rainbow...he sang that one last night too with his mom and it was unforgettable.
