ZIGGY STARDUST AND THE SPIDERS FROM MARS | 1979 | Dir. DA Pennebaker | PG | 90 mins
Presented by HARROGATE FILM SOCIETY
Your chance to be there for Bowie’s last-ever performance as Ziggy, at the Hammersmith Odeon, 3 July 1973, when he told his astonished audience, “…it’s the last show there will ever be!”
A great medley of 'Wild Eyed Boy From Freecloud'/'All The Young Dudes'/'Oh! You Pretty Things', a Lou Reed cover, and a Rolling Stones cover are but some of the highlights.
