OK, so on to the big one. The winner of the actual Diamond Dogs Abbey Road acetate song of their choice. This incredibly lucky BowieNetter has BowieNetter ms.moose to thank for randomly choosing their lucky number in aforementioned live draw in chat last night. That lucky number was 32 and it corresponded with Canadian music retail region manager, Mr Chris Hanington, BowieNet user name c.hanington, strangely enough.

Well done to all. Please furnish me with your real names and addresses and we’ll have your prize out to you as soon as we are able. Chris, you also need to tell me what track you have chosen for your acetate… you lucky, lucky, bugger!
