Awwwww Sloanjosiecat! I hope you have the opportunity!

I saw David at Madison Square Garden twice when tickets there were much cheaper.
The first time was The Serious Moonlight Tour, and the second was his Scary Monsters Tour.
I was too young to have seen earlier concerts - I wish I had, though!
He's a great entertainer!

I also had the opportunity to see him in "The Elephant Man", which was a tiny one room play that was absolutely excellent. I prefer to see my actors/singers in person; it's a much more invigorating experience.

If you can, join David's Online Fanclub. They often offer the opportunity to win tickets to see David performing - these performances are rarely advertised in the media.
His website is at:

I have seen him twice. First time was at the Area2 festival in DC and the second was the Reality tour in NYC. It was awesome. He does a really fabulous live version of "i'm Afraid of Americans," which is particularly valid now.

I saw him in the 80's on his Glass Spider tour - in I think 1987 - actually saw him for this in two states. It was incredible. He is not just a singer he is an incredible entertainer. What a show he puts on.

His songs included his, Glass Spider/ Day in Day out/Bang Bang/Loving the Alien/Time and many more. AS all his concerts I'm sure, it was an over the top spectacle - some people think too over the top - but not for die-hard Bowie fans like me!

I recommend the video - or by now - the DVD of the taped version.

Enjoy.

Definitely not your garden variety rock concert. No one can beat a performance by Bowie, he doesn't just out there and dance around and sing, he brings us entertainment to engage our senses and our imaginations. A feast for the eyes, ears and mind.

I have seen him only once in the Reality tour 2003 but I have friends who have seen him during every stage of his long career.

I saw his reality tour and his Earthing tour.
I saw The Reality Tour at the Greek Theatre...that night when he went past curfew..it was the best...and the Earthling tour I saw at the Universal Amphatheatre...I love both those venues...they are not too big.

I saw him in Melbourne in the Rod Laver arena - i think it was in 2003. It was great, he really puts on a show. A few costume changes, a great set, fantastic band as well. He did a fantastic version of Under Pressure with his Bass player singing the part of Freddy Mercury. She has the most amazing voice.

This was part of his "Reality" tour which I think you can get on DVD if you're interested. Definitely don't pass up an opportunity to see him.

i saw him a long time ago, in the 80s on the Serious Moonlight tour... the show was okay, but not as much as i had been expecting - entirely mea culpa, i had just spent so much time imagining how it would be, and it didn't live up to that.

i haven't been to very many concerts - i've found that i don't enjoy live music as much as studio work - i won't even listen to live albums.
