Speaking of tributes, I was at the Bowie's Beckenham Oddity festival on Saturday, as was Mawders. Resisted going to the facepainting tent and having a Ziggy flash (not such a good look on the bus) but enjoyed listening to some sincere but dreadful Bowie tributists. Nice bit of local history too - too bad they didn't sort out proper icecream and beer.
I was reminded while there that I currently live one street away from where Bowie lived when growing up in the 60s. The same street in fact that Berlin Bromley (one of the original Bromley contingent, along with Jordan, Siouxsie Sioux and Steve Severin) lived on. If I can find out where Billy Idol, Poly Styrene, Topper Headon, Peter Frampton and Pixie Lott grew up in Bromley, I could run a punk/rock nostalgia bus tour (I'll also throw in Enid Blyton's house for free).Statistics: Posted by Johnny Anarchy — Mon Aug 15, 2016 5:30 pm
