The Glass Spider Tour really deserves re-evaluating. This show's versions of Rebel Rebel, Jean Genie, Sons of the Silent Age, Fame and Time are absolutely epic.
Saw one of these shows in Hamburg, Stadtpark. It was kind of a farewell tour. Bowie claimed to play these tracks for the last time live and then to start something new. In all honesty and despite being happy to have seen him live once in my life and despite that Bowie is always great: a lot of what he did earlier and a lot of what he did later is way more interesting. He felt a bit lost and uninspired during the mid to late 80s. Nevertheless nice to have the chance to re-watch a part of these gigs.
@@dirkpehrke9909 ...I went to this tour as well , I've been a Bowie since I was about 14, I'm 59 now and I agree except I'll say this era is less inspired as it was horrible lol.
THIS MAN FILLS MY SOUL EVERYTIME I HEAR HIS MUSIC! I SAW HIM LIVE 22 TIMES ON 2 CONTINENTS! TO ME HE ALONE IS THE BEST MUSICIAN IN THE LAST 100 YEARS! HE NEVER LET'S YOU DOWN! RIP STARMAN, AND SHINE ON!
I'am so jealous 🥲 Never get the chance 💔 My mother teach me to love him, in my childhood and teenage times i was too young, but as older i get, as more i love him and today i try to get his hole stuff to let him and my mother live for ever 🫶🏻
I unashamedly love this tour. Please let us see his seated descent in 'Up the Hill Backwards / Glass Spider' and let us watch him being thrown around like a sack of grain by his dancers on “Fashion”.
@@Toni-w4l Even Bowie hated it by the end - the great mother spider set was burnt in a field in New Zealand out of resentment. The laboured theatrics of this show were unsustainable, epitomising 80s decadence. Out of the absurd grandiosity emerges a brilliant collection of camp performances with a diamond dogs-style aesthetic throughline. If we can never see Bowie's art of early 1974, at least let us see its obese, Jungian imitation in 1987
@@Toni-w4lbiggest tour ever. Biggest production ever, etc.etc. 3 glass spider stage in 70+ trucks. 2 million dollars cost BOWIE one show. Bowie was first in everything all the time. After GS tour begins new era for concert production. All big stars after GS start with big production
Saw this at Anaheim Stadium, Ca. I thought this performance was FANTASTIC, meaning the ENTIRE show! But, what do I know, I'm just a die hard Bowie fanatic!!!!
I saw the Glass Spider Tour in Atlanta, Thank you for this. I am 73 years old. David Bowie, I've been a fan from the start. I continue to be a fan in 2024. A mighty inspiration to many young gay guys on the fringes of society. Sending out love across the world ❤ 👍 ☮️ !
As a teen at her first concert with friends the Glass Spider tour was was awe inspiring, so thankful that I will always have memories of seeing David Bowie in concerts over the years, Forever missed, always remembered.
Me too. It was my first concert and I had to take the day off from primary school. Just wish I'd have seen him again as I would have appreciated it more.
@@jorussell2618 I know what you mean….I’d also seen him at Earls Court in 78 for the World Tour and Milton Keynes Bowl in 83 for the Serious Moonlight Tour.
I miss you old friend @David Bowie. I went into the city because my girlfriend was going through something difficult. She loved Bowie, but she also knew I kept my life and worlds separated, so she respected me. Unlike many others, I want proof and shove it; I never offered to take her to a show as a guest. Certain friends respect me and things I will and will not share to date. I knew someone she loved walked in due to the sight on her face, but I thought no way in a living hell of all places I don't even know this pub nore you. I looked over. It was anything but packed; it was quiet other than the music. It was David Dave, aka Bowie. I live in N.Y. raised born, or the Tristate area, so it's never shocked me or impressed me who one may run into. He ordered a drink, looked at me, and smiled, hand up a bit as hello ( I lost count of how many of his shows I attended), and my girlfriend kicked me as if I needed that. I knew his look and gesture, so I excused myself and said please don't faint, or I will be embarrassed. I will always remember the words we spoke and how he looked. I knew something was right. See, if you know anything about me, you'd know I never say Goodbye unless it is the finale or I am at a funeral. So many know never to say those words to me I have lost too many and that is what I related it to. As he had a brief liquor and was leaving, Dave came over (my poor girlfriend was holding it together like a tree in 100mph winds), Kissed my forehead, said hello to her, and said listen to me clearly; Kiddo, do not change for a soul you're a good girl human being Helen was right before she passed. No additional saving Conrad's ( my adoptive dad) ass time to spread your wings again, live love again, and keep dressing yourself. You seldom see any of us with a ho. You're correct. Keep those manners and everything you learned, even in the industry; we treasure so much art. Kiddo, always remember the clubs you were in as a youngster. They allowed you in studio 54 CbGbs and many, additionally remember those tours from each of others. Goodbye, precious youngster, until we meet again, New York, another innocent kiss on my forehead, and he was out the door. It didn't hit me. He said Goodbye until I was driving home, music blasting in, thinking, why did Dave say Goodbye? He knows not to, only to wake up to a call telling me he passed before the media found out. He rarely, if ever, just walked into any place. It was impossible to just be Dave (like him and many others It was impossible to just be Dave (like him and many others in that day and age. I am very private even though many assume I am not; I am highly). It wasn't like the late 70s or 80s and I was still a young young child. I hold Bowie close to my remembrances and soul, and I truly wasn't a Bowie fan; nevertheless, specific tunes of his hit me hard, and this is one out of idk 30. Yeah, rebel - rebel. Loved his wife dearly and daughter and loved his privacy he's missed dearly. This was a fantastic tour MSG and a few other he invited myself and late husband who passed at 29 in 94. There are many good eggs in this industry and many many many too many toxic ones who don't care about anyone (even their own fans some can be very scary). Not Dave who I first met when I was 8 walking in quickly to see this CBGBs begging the driver stop as he brought me home from every show I worked on Broadway. I was hooked and found exactly my scene at 8 years old.......... I miss way to many friends and am grateful for the tracks shows just to hear their voices ... seems like voices are the first one forgets
Bowie there will never be another love of my life since I was ten I’m now sixty with 63 tattoos all of Bowie song titles lines from song and two portraits get and ankles full of black stars as it was his last album I had Bowie tats since I was 19 girls didn’t have tattoos then but Bowie was worth all the agro now a days it’s acceptable just not being 60 lol but David Bowie is worth it Rip thin white duke.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Saw many of the greats perform back in the day. My one greatest regrets was not seeing David Bowie - one my biggest influences. Thanks so much for sharing this awesome performance.
I remember when this tour hit town (Sydney) it consumed all the TV and radio oxygen. The hype was huge it's all they talked about for a whole week as he did a few nights..
Adrenalina pura...David sei una forza della natura...dico sei perché tu per me vivi ancora....io di questo concerto ho la video cassetta ciao David ...❤️ Love
Great version. It wasn't yet on the setlist of the very first Glass Spider Tour show, which took place in Rotterdam on May 30, 1987 (we got 'New York's In Love' instead). We did hear it on the 1990 Sound + Vision Tour (great versions, especially in Nijmegen & Maastricht) and a few times during the Reality Tour, when he opened the show with it. Good times.
Era talmente tutto quello che un cantante puo essere che viene da chiedersi, ma perche' e' 'morto troppo presto?esiste una favolina che recita "perche se vai in un giardino cosa cogli i fiori belli o quelli brutti?"E' una favolina ,ma e consolatoria. E questo video vale oro
