Month: April 2005

La la la la la la, La la la la la la… etc.

The exceedingly efficient BowieNetter Bianca has been in touch again with the news that the German edition of Just a Gigolo (Schöner Gigolo, Armer Gigolo) is released in Germany this week. (April 5th)

She also tells me that the DVD is in German language but can be changed to English and that the bonus material “is of Marlene Dietrich and some Trailers.”

I know the original German edition of the film was different to that released elsewhere, not sure if that’s still the case…Perhaps somebody out there could kindly let us know.

Bianca has also supplied a link for those of you that wish to order online. Click on the DVD cover above to get there.

And they turn and they dance, And they laugh and they lust… (Allegedly)

I know regular visitors to the MBs will already be fully aware of this event, but for those of you that aren’t, the very lovely Angelnr12 has sent in details of a party in Amsterdam scheduled for May 28th which she and fellow BowieNetter Wine have organised. Over to you girlfriend…

Well, it doesn’t look like Mr Bowie is gonna perform live this year. But that’s NOT a reason to stay at home and miss out on all the fun, doncha think?

Since there’s a lot of Bowie-fans all over the world who like to meet up for a good party, we decided to organise one in Amsterdam, on Saturday May 28 2005.

You’ll be able to enjoy the music of the Dutch Bowie tribute band “The Ziggy Stardust Experience’, have a drink (or two), dance (eventually) and talk with people who share the same ‘strange fascination’.

More info about the party, and how to order tickets for this event can be found on our website here, or by clicking on the image above.

Hope to meet you in Amsterdam! Angelnr12 & Wine

Should be a jolly good fun do…those Dutch certainly know how to party!

There’ll be some blood no doubt about it… (and a sprinkling of glitter too)

The perfectly unbalanced Mick Rock will be in Berlin next week to open an exhibition for the new German edition of Blood & Glitter that we told you about a couple of weeks back. (03.13.05 NEWS: MUCH MICK ROCK MADNESS COMING UP)

Mick will be at the Kulturkaufhaus Dussmann on Monday April 11th from 6:00pm (local time) give a talk and to open an exhibition celebrating Blood & Glitter with the book’s publisher, Oliver Schwarzkopf.

The characters populating the pages of Blood & Glitter will be the subject of Mick’s talk, including his reminisces of the time he spent working with them.

The book is published with both German and English texts on April 15th and the exhibition runs until April 30th from 10am till 10pm every day except Sunday.

Thanx to BowieNetter Bianca for the pointer, a very helpful young lady who I’m sure won’t mind imparting some of her local knowledge to those that ask nicely.
