David Bowie, Hong Kong Coliseum, 1983 Bowies Serious Moonlight - TopicsExpress



          

David Bowie, Hong Kong Coliseum, 1983 Bowies Serious Moonlight Tour was a mind-boggling undertaking that involved 96 dates in 16 countries spread over more than six months, seen by more than 2.6 million people - and the climax to that mammoth sweep of the world came in the form of two nights at the Hong Kong Coliseum. This was ultra-slick, 1980s-era Bowie, admittedly all shoulder pads and bleached blond barnet but he always did know how to put on a show, and the Hong Kong concerts included some emotional moments - particularly the second one, says Yuen Chi-chung, local DJ, music critic and founder of influential magazine Music Colony Bi-weekly. It was December 8, and he sang Imagine in tribute to John Lennon on the third anniversary of his death. Bowie, ever the raconteur live, also recounted at length how hed last seen his old friend Lennon, co-writer of his 1975 hit Fame, at a market in Hong Kong. educationpost.hk/resources/art-design/140108-performing-art-hong-kong-best-ten-music-gigs-fifty-years
