AFTER being the most exciting thing to happen to the Liverpool MTV Awards last year and two major shows back in April, it seems that Pink just can’t keep away from the Echo Arena.
And judging by last night’s concert, a late addition to her Funhouse tour after the first two dates were a swift sell-out, she’d be welcomed back to the city in a second.
On a set designed as a funfair, all chrome and red carpet with waltzers for the band to sit in, she blitzed her way through a powerful list of hits.
Freaky yellow-trousered clowns, dancers with attitude and a layered costume that transformed from an orange biker dress to shiny red leggings and tiny top to an asymmetric cape, in a striptease lasting several numbers, accompanied the boisterous songs Bad Influence, Just Like a Pill and Don’t Let Me Get Me.
Then a slowed-down, sensual version of The Divinyls’ 1991 hit I Touch Myself, with Pink reclining on a red chaise longue while disembodied hands reached through the upholstery and caressed her.
