I was fortunate to see Annie Lennox on October 13, 2006 in Saskatoon at Credit Union Centre. She toured with Sting during his Sacred Heart Tour. After having seen Bowie and U2 in previous years, I was asked who was left... I answered "Eurythmics". Well sure enough I was able to realise a part of that dream on October 13, 2006.
Having seen Sting before, I was going strictly to see Annie. And she did not disappoint. I could have left during the intermission satisfied that I got my money's worth.
"Lennox brings the heat, Sting supplies the cool...
The queen of rock was born on Christmas Day nearly 50 years ago. She was in Saskatoon Wednesday night, and her gift was in full and fabulous form.
Merry early Christmas, Saskatoon.
Annie Lennox was the undisputed star of the double bill with Sting, from the moment she walked out in purple satin jacket over ripped blue jeans, a cropped black tank top - and sunglasses.
Elegant, slender, sexy and dynamic, the tiny woman with the incredible big voice slammed through an hour's set that showed she is not just a rock star, but also a force of funk, punk, and jazz.
She didn't speak for a long time, but when she did, she said Saskatchewan right. Twice."
