Italian Party A Big Success

Photographs and press cuttings about the event are now online at Velvet Goldmine, here, and Stefano has kindly written us an English version of his review of the event :-

The night of may 26 at Mago di Oz in Rome was a wonderful night and a big success.

The local press has given news of the event. More than 200 people has attended the party, many Velvet Goldminers were coming from any part of Italy, Torino, Milano, Padova, Rimini, Firenze, Palermo. The cover-band “Mr. Ziggy and the Glass Spiders” has been playing for almost 3 hours, raising a great enthusiasm among the people who were singing and dancing upon their chairs?..

Concert started with Warszawa sliding into 5 years with a dreaming ending of saxophone, Starman was a collective delirium, the fascinating Scary Monsters, the enjoyable Young Americans, the extraordinary Station to Station with a marvellous chorus of the audience, the out-of-space Moonage Daydream, the ever-touching Rock?n?Roll Suicide, the devilish Hello Spaceboy were just the highlights of the astonishing performance! And after this incredible and highly professional gig, the night went on with only Bowie music on the dance-floor until 5 in the morning??..

A special thank to Sailor, it?s just because of him that we had the chance to meet the people everyday we e-mail and chat with!
