There was a split second of confusion before it dawned on the audience that that really was David Bowie up there and then it happened. The audience just went completely bonkers. There was screaming, shouting and all around a sea of raised hands followed by thunderous applause. People around me were just grinning broadly; "It's David Bowie, it's fucking David Bowie!!!" shouted the guy next to me. Mouths dropped open in awe. Bowie was completely taken aback my the response and thanked the audience many times before finally launching in to Quicksand. This caused the audience to shout even louder and in that second the temperature seemed to increase another 10 degrees. Bowie quickly followed up with MWSTW, Queen Bitch and Jean Genie. I've been going to see DB since 1983 and in all that time I've never seen an audience like this. They were loudly appreciative, highly animated (people were constantly being hoisted on other peoples shoulders throughout the night) and very knowledgeable of Bowie's music. That night David Bowie could do no wrong. The atmosphere was just electric. Hanover Grand now seems like a far off nightmare, in fact I'm beginning to wonder whether it happened at all! Bowie really did seem to enjoy the whole experience and was extremely relaxed and chatty. Next up was I'm Afraid, Battle for Britain and Seven Years in Tibet. During Seven Years a punky Siouxsie Sioux lookalike (wearing a sort of leather/fishnet type thingy) mimed to the whole song while balanced on a friends shoulders. She was rewarded with a broad smile from The Man. I'm a little bit sketchy as to the exact order of the middle part of the set but as far as I can remember it went like this: Fame/Looking For Satellites/Fashion/Stay/Under Pressure The real surprise of the evening was when Bowie suddenly announced he was going to play a selection of songs from "the best album of 1995" and proceeded to play: The Motel/Strangers When We Meet/Outside/Voyeur/HFL/Hallo Spaceboy It was just great to here these songs again and just emphasized what a great album Outside really is. It is a classic and with time will come to be regarded as Bowie's finest piece of work. The crowd just lapped it up and were particularly appreciative of Voyeur and Hallo Spaceboy. The final two songs were Scary Monsters and Little Wonder. SM was a real stormer but LW was surprisingly ham fisted - a little bit too crash-bang-wallop for my liking. In truth it was the only low spot of the evening. This wasn't to put off the audience though who shouted and stamped their feet until the band returned to encore with DWM (much better with the speeded up vocal), White Light (which went down a riot), O Superman and Look Back In Anger. O Superman is still the highlight for me. There is so much happening during this song - Gail's fantastic voice, the minotaur dancing menacingly in the background, Bowie miming throughout with well placed vocal accompaniment. "Go on, David" shout the crowd when he first starts to sing. I want this as a single and I want it now!! After Look Back the audience know it is all over. In fact I don't think they could have physically given any more. By this time the temperature is just unbearable and my body is screaming for fresh air. As the crowd streams out all you can hear are the words "fantastic", "amazing", "unbelievable", and "wonderful", not to mention "he hasn't aged in the last twenty years". I just want to say how much I enjoyed this gig. It was exciting and had a big, big atmosphere. It totally restored by faith in the Bowie audience. Bowie himself showed that he is as relevant to day as he was 25 years ago. He surely is the UK's greatest musical export.
