Velvet Goldmine…
As we mentioned last week when we set the competition to win promos, (06/21/02 NEWS: BUY ZIGGY 30TH, HEAR SNIPPETS, WIN THE PROMO AND MORE!) the EMI release of ‘The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars’ 30th Anniversary Special Edition double CD is out next Monday July 8th in the UK and the following Tuesday July 16th in the US.
Don’t forget, you can pre-order via the BowieNet Store, and if you purchase the CD from the store before July 12th, you will automatically be entered for a contest in which you could win one of 30 Ziggy-related prizes, not to mention 10% off all subsequent purchases in the BowieNet store for the month of August.
Ziggy Promo Winners
Now for those five winners, who each win a copy of the highly-collectable and extremely limited, promotional only, double CDR of the 30th Anniversary ‘Ziggy Stardust’ . We asked what track was originally recorded during the ‘Hunky Dory’ sessions, but was eventually released on ‘Ziggy Stardust’ instead?
This was a very popular competition to which we had hundreds of entries, surprising really, as looking back at the question, it ain’t easy. Actually it is. In other words, ‘It Ain’t Easy’ is the answer we were looking for, and here are five of you who supplied the correct answer and were randomly selected by TRG?:

If you five lucky beggars send your address to MrTotalBlamBlam@AOL.com with a subject line of “Hunky Ziggy track winner”. We’ll send you your prize as soon as postmistress SusanS has finsihed gallivanting about Europe! (Hope you’re having fun luv…well, I know you are, seeing as you’re giving me hourly updates!)
Ziggy 30th Anniversary Special Edition Competition
In celebration of the anniversary of Ziggy’s Last Stand at the Hammersmith Odeon in London, 29 years ago today, and the fact that the DVD isn’t out for a few months yet, we are giving away five copies of the finished EMI release of the ‘Ziggy Stardust’ 30th Anniversary Special Edition CD to five BowieNetters who can answer this question:
The version of ‘Moonage Daydream’ on this CD was mixed especially for a TV/cinema ad…what was that advert?
