David Bowie during the taping of the Today show in NY last
Friday. Winning picture taken by BowieNetter David Poley.
After Today…
Last Friday (14th) we asked you for your pictures from David’s performance at NBC’s Today TV Show 7th Annual Summer Concert Series, (06/14/02 NEWS: LIVE REPORT FROM TODAY SHOW SOUNDCHECK) and we promised to reward the person whose picture we used with a highly collectable ‘Heathen’/’Slow Burn’ package, that comprises four different European CDs, two of which are much sought after promotional items.
“‘Rock ‘n’ Roll Suicide’? No problem son!” DB takes requests
during rehearsals for the Today show. Picture by David Poley.
Well, we have a winner in superfan, David Poley, and two of the pictures he sent us within moments of DB leaving the stage are reproduced above. Mr Poley was also the man responsible for requesting ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll Suicide’ during the soundcheck, for which he was rewarded, unbelievably, with most of the requested song. Thanx a lot David, send your address to TotalBlamBlam@DavidBowie.com with a subject line of “Today Pic Winner” and we’ll have your booty off to you as soon as you’ve responded.
“Look at him up there, that disguise is fooling nobody!” – or…
“Somebody Up There Likes Me” – Picture by MIchael DeCero.
We’ve also decided to reward BowieNetter MIchael DeCero with the same prize for two of his superb pictures, (above and below) which didn’t reach us quite as quickly as Mr Poley’s shots, but deserve a prize anyway. Well done lads, don’t forget to forward me the address you want your prizes delivered to, and thanx again for sharing your work with BowieNet.
“Here Slicky, why has Blammo taken a whole week to post these pictures up do you
think?” – “Well he’s been busy at Meltdown all week David, and we know better than
anybody that Rockin’ ‘n’ Rollin’ is a pretty tough gig, man.” Picture by MIchael DeCero.
