BOWIEFEST
30th March 2006
7:00pm onwards
West Street Live, West Street, Sheffield, UK
Tel: (0114) 253 6510.

For the 2nd year UK Bowie tribute act The Bowie Contingent are raising money for Save The Children with their BowieFest event, and whilst the event is FREE, donations will be taken on the night in aid of the cause.

This year looks set to be bigger and better than the last! Bowiefest started as a low key evening celebrating Bowie's influence over the past five decades, but has now blossomed into a full night of audio/visual entertainment.

With DJs, video projections, live music and prize give-aways (with some great items donated by Gail Ann Dorsey, Woody Woodmansey, Mark Plati and Tony Visconti, together with posters, CDs and T-Shirts) this FREE event will be raising money on the night for Save The Children.

Live music for the event is provided by The Bowie Contingent, with support coming from - Avangaad, Pisco Sour Hour, Scott Pilkington (Bhuna), Dave Woodcock & Vicky Wells (Taste of Shotgun), all of whom will be performing a selection of Bowie's hits and album tracks throughout the evening.

There will also be video projections and DJs playing music from both Bowie and other related artists such as Iggy Pop, Lou Reed, Arcade Fire etc..etc..

The night kicks off at 7:00pm and looks set to be a great event!
