Well... now you gotta review his work. As tribute of course :)

I'll post something. Just don't know what. Been listening to Bowie for most of my life so it's hard to make sense of where to even start. But I might do some sort of 'personal' reflection-type thing on how I discovered his music over the years. Turns out that the first time I ever heard a Bowie song I was 9 years old and it was 'Space Oddity' which I saw on Top of the Pops in England.

Have you see this:

Hey thanks for that! I've actually seen the statue myself, many years ago, may 10-15 years on a trip to Moscow. It's quite monumental, as is a lot of the architecture of Moscow, left over from the Stalinist times.

Been busy -- am out of the country actually, so haven't had time to update. Will have lots to say soon.
