DJ Setlist: Bowie’s Birthday Bash – Tribute to David Bowie on his 70th Birthday, San Fran, Sunday, January 8, 2017

imagesWell, we paid tribute to David Bowie on his 70th Birthday in the only way we know how – just as last year we played a tribute show at the San Fran with various DJs so it was again. I played the opening afternoon set, and then a little blast a bit later on too…in-between my sets Mel and Lily of The She-Jays delivered the goods. Geoff Stahl played remixes and covers and it was an all-around Bowie celebration with a lovely vibe. A great Sunday afternoon session in the bar too – here’s to more great Sunday sessions down the line eh…download
