KYLIEX2008 Tour Update

Since opening in Bercy, Paris on May 7th to rapturous acclaim from fans and critics alike, Kylie’s most lavish (and expensive) tour to date KYLIEX2008 has now started to snake it’s way across Europe. After stop-offs in Antwerp, Stuttgart and Frankfurt, Kylie made her first live appearance in the Czech Republic when the tour arrived in Prague last night.

The opening of the show is spectacular with Kylie appearing from between imense video curtains suspended above the stage in a golden hoop to the pumping beats of ‘Speakerphone’.

Later in the show Kylie emerges bedecked in red, draped over a massive silver skull and performs two of the most popular tracks from her latest album X, ‘Like A Drug’ and ‘The One’.

Alongside the usual mix of hits - both old and new - Kylie has incorporated three previously unreleased tracks into the show, ‘Ruffle My Feathers’ written by Paul Harris, Julian Peake & Kylie Minogue and ‘That’s Why They Write Love Songs’ & ‘Flower’ both written by Steve Anderson & Kylie Minogue.

During the show Kylie also performs a cover of Barry Manilow’s signature tune ‘Copacabana’ which then blends beautifully into the ‘Light Years’ classic ‘LoveBoat’.

Kylie made a popular change to the setlist during her performance in Antwerp when she added the firm fan favorite, ‘Your Disco Needs You’.
