David Live 5.1 Listening Party At Abbey Road

Gather you all and listen here…

This is the one a few of you seem to be getting a bit excited about, and rightly so. On Saturday, February 12th, 2005, five BowieNetters will attend a 5.1 David Live listening party in Studio 3 of the legendary Abbey Road Studios in London, England, as guests of the very generous Nigel Reeve and EMI.

I know five members doesn’t sound a lot, but due to the nature of the 5.1 listening experience the physical area in which you can enjoy the full effect of 5.1 is actually quite small. Anyway, if five was good enough for Willy Wonka, then it’s good enough for me.

If all goes to plan and things run smoothly on the day, we will also give the winners a chance to listen to Stage in 5.1.

To be in with a chance of winning your Golden Ticket, all you will have to do is be absolutely certain you can be there on the day, then e-mail me at TotalBlamBlam@davidbowie.com with a subject line of: David Live Golden Ticket

The draw will end at midnight UK time on January 30th to give the winners plenty of time to arrange their own travel. The randomly-selected winners will be announced on the morning of January 31st here on the news page.

Usual rules apply: You must either enter from your BowieNet account, or at least supply your username, the validity of which will be checked before the winners are announced. Only one entry per member account.

One final point, the subject line of David Live Golden Ticket must be used on your entry e-mail. This is because the entries are routed to one in-box from where the winners will be selected. Failure to do so could jeopardise your chances of a successful entry.

Good luck, kidz.
