David Bowie

RIP.

A true artist.

He is one of those great musicians that, although I never had any of his albums, I always knew he was one of the geniuses in modern music.

Undeniably original. Undeniably brilliant. Fantastically progressive.

2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Lemmy dies ending 2015, David Bowie dies at the start of 2016 and Justin Bieber is on top of the charts...I'm sure Nostradamus predicted this as the start of the end of days.

I was lucky enough to see Bowie in concert in Budapest many years ago, weird but brilliant. Never understood the giant inflatable eyeballs bouncing around the crowd. But he sure knew how to play the audience. One of a kind :-(

Big news, and very sad as always when we lose any rockers. RIP David.

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low.

Goodbye, David.
