ABSOLUTE BOWIE – 7.30pm, Friday 20th October, Bedford Esquires
Absolute Bowie make a welcome return to Bedford for their 4th visit calling in at Bedford Esquires on Friday 20th October.
Now in their 17th year of touring, the UKs ‘Best Tribute Band’ and ‘Best Bowie’ act, would like to come and meet you and they might just blow your mind… With an electrifying performance from our main Starman, and theatrical mid-set costume ch-ch-ch-anges, Absolute Bowie will take you on a musical journey through the greatest hits of David Bowie with their huge stage show.
“A lovingly crafted Bowie show” says NME, and “an unmissable tribute act” hails the Times, the band will leave you wanting more from the most genuine David Bowie tribute out there. Is it any wonder when you are too cool to fool.
David Bowie’s evolving image has mesmerised fans since the early 70’s and for the first time ever Absolute Bowie will take audiences on a trip that presents all his best-loved personas in all their glory. Performed by a world class five-piece band, this unique concert features two long sets and more costume changes than any other show. A true extravaganza of the wonder that is Bowie’s work.
The band have listened to fans and evolved the show’s setlist to really give an all-killer performance and no Bowie fan is left out. All of the Starman’s greatest hits are performed plus the band perform tracks from the albums David Bowie, Ziggy Stardust & The Spiders From Mars, Heroes, Aladdin Sane, Hunky Dory, Let’s Dance and Young Americans through to the hits of later albums.
Featuring the incredible vocals of John O’Neill as David Bowie, with our very own Ronno, Andy Marr on guitar, Sam Gino on bass, Varo Sisti on keyboards, Alex Riccardi on drums and, when possible, Fiona Asbury on saxophone. The band perform with incredible musicianship and attention to detail.
Prepare to be taken from A to Z (Absolute Beginners to Ziggy!) with Stations to Station in between. So don’t miss out – don your glittery dancing boots, paint a flash on your face and buy your tickets now because the planet Earth is blue and there’s nothing else left to do…
Tickets priced £16 in advance are available from Seetickets from Monday 28th May and in person from Slide Record Shop and Esquires Bar from Thursday 1st June.
