I tried with Frankenstein a couple years back. I actually thought about that again recently just as a themed concert, but then they were doing 'Total eclipse' in Melbourne and I didn't want to 'compete' with that, if it ever happened. The idea was that it would have used all of Jim's greatest hits in the one show, with the idea that the songs were all like.. creations I suppose. It's easy to imagine Jim as Dr Frankenstein haha. When he wrote "All coming back" I think he was flying around all over New York at a Grand Piano which was like a rocket or something with exhaust pipes? Whoooosh. "Baby baby baby when you touch me like this" *bashing away at the notes on the keyboard* *Jim's hair actually starts glowing* "Oooh I've gotta write that bit down."
Omg... Anyway!! I couldn't do it at the time because the songs in the context of a theatre piece were exclusive to the BOOH show. So that was that more or less.
