Searched for this awhile back but couldn't find it til now. All three songs from Bowies SNL performance from 1980 including the "infamous" "Boys Keep Swinging". Yes kids, before Nirvana there was a Man Who Sold The World.

Hmm another world tour would be awesome. Any news on that front? Can't believe I missed him a few years back :-(

Word is he's never touring again. Of course, being the unpredictable iconoclast, Bowie might just pull another rabbit out of his hat when you least expect it and announce a new tour but I doubt it. I've read he hates touring so if he ever does it will be a short one. I think more likely he'll make the odd special guest appearance at a showcase here and there, perhaps to bring attention to a worthy cause. Would be amazing to see him perform at The Superbowl... just sayin'

Hey TragicmMagic, don't know if you got the chance to see David Bowie is @ the ACMI in Melbourne, but it is definitely worth the look. The exhibition runs until 1st November.

Cheers

This might be the closest you get to hearing Bowie live again:



Rolling Stone says: Backed by a killer band that included Earl Slick, Spiders From Mars keyboardist Mike Garson and bassist/backing vocalist Gail Ann Dorsey, Bowie played stunning shows that drew equally from all eras of his career. Big hits like "Rebel Rebel," "Heroes" and "Ziggy Stardust" were in regular rotation, but they also dug deep for tunes like "Win," "Always Crashing in the Same Car," 'Fantastic Voyage" and "Loving the Alien." New songs were introduced all the time, and Bowie seemed to have a great time. It all came to a crashing halt after Bowie underwent emergency heart surgery for a blocked artery following a show at the Hurricane Festival in Germany on June 25th, 2004. That was well over 11 years ago, and he hasn't played a show since.

Less than a month before the tour came to a premature end, Bowie played a two-night stand at the Borgata Event Center in Atlantic City, New Jersey. The first show was packed with rarities, and one fan walked away with a remarkably clean audience tape that founds its way to YouTube...
