and his death on 10 January.

A question for all of you DB followers,which west country City did he live in when he was trying to become a musician.

There are two up and coming events,there are most likely others but please post if you know of any more.
Foyles in London Saturday 10 January and the following weekend(17 January) the British library in Soho.

Infoman, the British Library is next to St Pancras on the Euston Road, not Soho
there are four Foyles in London, the flagship store being on Charing Cross Road of course.

Bowie had a close connection with St Ives, attending the opening of the Tate there, his artistic fascinations well documented.

Before my husband had his stroke I used to walk miles and always listened to Bowie on the way.

There is a tribute to him at Aylesbury, UK.
