Ten thousand peoploids split into small tribes, Coveting Bowie’s back catalogue…
This sounds impressively ambitious, a whole bunch of musical type Bowie fans carving up the Bowie back catalogue to perform the songs live from 2:00pm on Sunday, August 21st, under the shared umbrella of Love You Till Sunday.
In fact, around twenty artists will perform a collective tribute to David Bowie, consisting of approximately forty Bowie tunes, presumably played at breakneck speed to fit ’em all in!
Still, if the attention to detail is anything like it is in the above flyer for the event, then a splendid time should be had by all.
For those of you wondering, the flyer is based on the original Dutch Love You Till Tuesday picture sleeve 45 from 1967, below.
You can read more about the event on the Love You Till Sunday facebook page and find out how to get to the venue here on The Railway Hotel site.
