Imagine: David Bowie decides, ten years after his death, to go on tour one more time. Sounds unlikely? Maybe. But with The Moonlovers and singer Tom Hannes, it comes suspiciously close. Together they pay tribute to Bowie with music from his impressive career of more than fifty years. From great classics to forgotten gems.
The result is an intense and immersive show that brings the Bowie universe back to life. Going to see a Bowie show one more time? Admit it: you wouldn't pass that up.
No, David Bowie was no ordinary mortal. We knew that. But that he would find a way to return one last time for a final tour 10 years after his death, on what would have been his 80th birthday? We didn't see that coming.
That he would choose The Moonlovers as his backing band is not surprising. They have been playing for many years like no other almost everything that can be played in better pop music. And that Bowie would courteously but accurately ask Tom Hannes to lend him his body during the tour is not entirely unexpected either.
But still. Admit it. Going to see a Bowie show one more time. With the best of the best from 50 years of brilliant songs. Van Wild eyed boy from Freecloud to Lazarus. With world hits and forgotten gems. In an intimate and intense setting. David Bowie. Come. You don't want to miss this.
