Well done for doing Wild is the Wind. And now you mention it there was a wonky bit in Golden Years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shambo Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 I was lucky enough to be present at this gig. Maybe the best gig of my life. It was absolutely mesmerising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleabag Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Saw Bowie on the Serious Moonlight tour at Milton Keynes Bowl, with The Beat and Icehouse. That was some gig. Check Bowie at the BBC theater 2000 on YT. Great gig - the sound is awesome under headphones. Highlight was Mark Plati's bass on Ashes to Ashes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleabag Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Nah, the Beeb gig is still there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleabag Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Ah, the whole video - yes you're right. I remember seeing that a few years ago, but it seems to be missing , as you say. Still, one of my fave TV appearances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Band tight as hell, the voice amazing and I've long considered that Mark Plati bass as one of my favourite bass YouTube clips. I was always puzzled why he swapped instruments with Gail Ann Dorsey for that one track. She doesn't like slapping?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are four breaks in the song and only the second and fourth are the same, the other two are different, plus the length of the verses alternate. Not one you coast through without paying attention I've found 😀 I meant well done for picking it, it's a beautiful song. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i remember being cooked in the sun there, and when you've quaffed a load of cider, the sun/cider mix takes it's toll. Yes, i was mashed - again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's a competent guitarist and he slaps that MM like he was a bass player, rather than a guitar player. PS Earl Slick's guitaring is sublime too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fleabag Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 (edited) I asbo lootly agree. Sterling is one tight drummer, and drums like a drummer, if that makes sense. The Dorsey / Plati / Slick / Campbell / Garson line up are superb for Bowie, and i also include Holly Palmer and Emm Gryner ( backing vox / percussion and backing vox / keys respectively ) Palmer is not just a backing singer - she's a crooner in her own right. It's a super band all round, and the 2000 line up is also my fave Edited October 28, 2018 by fleabag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from Bowie, one of the many things I remember from that day - The Icehouse bass player throwing his bass across the dressing room/caravan after their show, and thinking, "What a kn#b!"
