I’ve fallen off the Bowie slightly over the last 8 months. How’s things? X⚡️✨

But things did tend to coalesce. I love the notion that ‘Tis a pity she was a whore’ came from a soundtrack. I certainly never understood where it fitted.
Did you get tickets for the first release of the archive? ⚡️✨

And the overspill of the Orwell inspired musical that wasn’t 🤷‍♀️🧑‍🎤⚡️✨

‘Tis a pity she was a whore’ now seems to fit with Bowie’s next musical plans… 🧑‍🎤🥰⚡️✨

Totally agree Chris, David’s interests were often obvious and diverse
I was just posting about his influences including 18th century London history, the so called ‘freaks of society’ and obviously Baal, The Elephant man and Lazarus 🥰🧑‍🎤⚡️✨

David Bowie’s final project was 18th century musical, new V&A exhibition reveals A forthcoming display of the singer’s archive includes sticky notes detailing a theatrical work called The Spectator, about a petty thief and high-class gangs in London

Of course it was… his influences were clear
David was interested in 18th century London history, ‘the so called freaks’ of society like Elephant man, a favourite book in human oddities he shared with Duncan, musical drama like Baal, had already written Lazarus⚡️✨

Not for the first couple of weeks. I’m going later at the end of September and had picked out my 5 items but there wasn’t a time slot free… on the day I had a ticket 🤦‍♀️
I think this will be the best thing… better than the museum itself even. Here were my choices 🤷‍♀️⚡️✨ #BowieArchive

After 3 years of Long Covid, 6 months since my stroke and two weeks from major surgery, I am beginning to feel like myself again
Walking by the canal, listening to Bowie, planning my Archives trips
V&A merchandise is coming thick and fast too
Happy days🧑‍🎤⚡️✨

If I was a proper one of those influencer types I’d be live streaming on my channel… broadcasting about @davidbowiereal and the archive!
Mind you I’d have to stop crying at the beginning like I did at the premiere of Moonage Daydream 🧑‍🎤⚡️✨

Not sure about the size of the exhibition. They have more items to draw from than ‘David Bowie Is…’ ⚡️✨

Got a hotel provisionally booked but I didn’t intend to travel down regularly, especially as they said some of the exhibits will rotate every three months ⚡️✨
