Liveandwell.com Cd Still Free To All New Members

They called it the prayer, it’s answer was LAW…

…Except of course there is no need for prayer. As you all know, if you sign up to BowieNet you get a free copy of LAW. But it would seem from recent activity on eBay that there are those not aware of this situation. Copies of aliveandwell.com are selling on the popular auction site for more than the annual subscription to BowieNet! Go figure, as you guys say. Of course this trade begs the question; what ungrateful swine would sell their CD in the first place?

Whatever, perhaps we should do the decent thing and e-mail anyone bidding on this item with the following shortcut http://www.davidbowie.com/signup/index.html to the sign-up area of BowieNet, with the information that the LAW CD is still available to new members. So for possibly less than they would waste on bidding on a copy of LAW on eBay, they get the CD, PLUS all of the other benefits that being a member of BowieNet brings. Spread the word.

While we are on the subject of the LAW CD, I have heard from people who had not realised that there is an interactive aspect to CD2 of the set. Apart from the four superb remixes, there is also a whole area that replicates the liveandwell.com submissions section in its entirety, Worlds software and more! Go take another look.

All You've Got To Do Is Win

Tomorrow is the last day for the two competitions (that I have set) currently running on BowieNet. The deadline for entries is midnight of October 31st in your timezone. If you missed them first time around, go to the following news stories for the full details:

10/02/00 NEWS: MORE FANTASTIC PRIZES IN YET ANOTHER GROOVY COMPETITION…PHEW!! go here: http://www.davidbowie.com/members/news/bowienews/news/20001002.html

10/12/00 NEWS: UNCOMMONLY RARE BOWIE AT THE BEEB T-SHIRTS TO BE WONgo here: http://www.davidbowie.com/members/news/bowienews/news/20001012.html

Remember your entries must be sent from an @davidbowie.com or .co.uk address, unless you have a valid reason for not being able to send from your BowieNet account. There is obviously no deadline for supplying your ideas for the ‘guess-the-lyric’ competition. Don’t worry if you don’t have access to a photo-editing program, just tell us your idea, and if we like it, we’ll knock it up for you. What could be easier? Go to the stories above for further entry and prize details.

Finally, if you think our competitions are hard, click on the image above, (if you haven’t already) to see how hard Bowie-related quizzes set by comedian Harry Hill are. The quiz was lifted from the tour programme on sale in the foyer at Harry’s current UK tour. If you can stand the torture of side-splitting laughter for a couple of hours, check him out…I did, and what are the chances of that happening?

A Big One For Geoff!

Once, in the Diamond Dogs days, Warren Peace, as he was known then, danced and sang his way round the world with David. He did the infamous Russian trips and all the ships that sailed back and forth across the five (that’s seven -ed.) seas. Now he continues his life as a successful dance-hit man with ‘Fiji’ a country neither David nor Geoff ever actually got to. Read all about it in Bowie’s new journal entry.

We’ll squawk like pink monkey birds!

Yes, tonight is mischief night, but the real fun starts at 10PM EST on Halloween when we chat with David! But the Yahoo chat is just a warmup for what follows next, when we follow David over to BowieNet chat which will be sure to include a surprise….

If you are unable to attend the chat but would like to submit a question in advance, you can mail your question(s) for David to: Saint Alphonzo
