Note: The final show of the Diamond Dogs tour:

Same as Toronto ,but Drive in Saturday Bowie replaces by Knock on Wood; Rock & Roll Suicide is missing. This is the last concert of the tour, performed in this sold out Madison Square Garden. The two con­certs had originally been planned for Radio City Music Hall, but because of the overwhelming demand for tickets they had been moved to the Garden which is three times as big. For Bowie it was an important thing that these two concerts were booked up,because it placed him on a level with a couple of other very popular artists. The amount of money grossed for both shows was $260 and both shows were videotaped. “Good evening New York!” Bowie cries before All the Young Dudes, and the enthusiastic audience respond by cheering. “Thank you,we are pleased to be here. This is a song I wrote for some friends of mine called Mott the Hoople”.
This is a great con­cert,and a great tape. Earl Slick’s guitar dominates and at places it drowns the other instruments,but this sounds rather good,actually. Slick plays beautifully and songs like Sweet Thing,Time and Panic in Detroit are performed to perfection.

  1. 1st time seeing bowie that nite , then 4 states and 6 shows later…..saved the blotter for this show…up all nite afterwards…per previous poster lots of glam all over….great set….took gf she was a real pain in the ass….or maybe it was the blotter?…music was great….crowd/freak show was better…don’t smirk….that was me filling ur kids prescription 8 years later…

  2. I was at this show. A gang of us drove from Denver to NYC. First time there, 20 years old. Very hot summer nights, but lots of glam kids everywhere. Never forgot it. Angie, Zowie, and Dana Gillespie were in the first tier of seats behind us. Ah, the memories.

  3. 1st time I’ve visited your website. I’m impressed. Especially as I am a lifetime David Bowie devotee and collector.
    March 2013 I met Masayoshi Sukita @Snap Galleries, Piccadilly Arcade. Sukita helped me to get a sculpture I was making for David as a gift to the man himself.

  4. Thanks for your compliment, I heard the broadcast of six music Marc Riley with Warren Peace / Geoff Mack Macor and is one of the interesting ante interviews of the last year

  5. Dietrich – what a fantastic resource – amazing. Did you hear the show on 6 music Marc Riley with Warren Peace/ Geoff Macormack the other evening – very interesting: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b08739hs

    I would love to hear something from this period of Bowie – the philly dogs stuff is just thrilling. Peace.
