brothercharles 807 Report post Posted January 11, 2016 Saw him at Cobo Hall in Detroit with Tom, what an experience! His opening number was Major Tom, started in a fully dark arena, spotlight came on and he was hanging up about 20 feet and 10 rows out when he started singing! He will be missed. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

loopie 15358 Report post Posted January 12, 2016 This really hit me hard. I'm not normally somebody who gets upset about celebrities, but this one really bugged me. It really feels like it shouldn't be over. I feel like the surprise announcement from David Bowie should be that he's touring again, not that he's dead.

PatrickGC 10792 Report post Posted January 12, 2016 (edited) David Bowie always seemed to put sincerity first. Both in interviews and personal choices. A career that was unique and wide ranging from the very beginning. He pushed the social boundaries in a way which encouraged exploration and communication among people. He made it OK for people to step out of the norm during some pretty conservative times. How many creative souls took root because of his inspiration? We really need to acknowledge the creative souls in each of our lives and reciprocate in some way, because all too often, the creative life is a short one.
