This is a link to Google news where it has every article from the past couple of hours.

It states Goldenvoice is trying to get Bowie to perform at Coachella as Ziggy.

Here's one of the article:
David Bowie is in talks to headline the 2009 Coachella festival in Los Angeles, according to reports.

Organisers are said to have launched a new bid to attract the singer after discussions for Bowie to headline last year's event fell through.

It's claimed that he has been asked to perform his 1972 album, 'The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars', in its entirety at the festival.

"Coachella tried to book Bowie last year and he refused, so they got Prince to headline instead,” a source told the Daily Stars newspaper.

“But there's a very strong chance they will be able to persuade him this year."

Bowie's 1972 concept album is widely regarded as one of the greatest albums of all time.

I thought you meant "look at all this Bowie talk on this board"

You know, since there's already a bunch of threads on the same topic.

I am saying that there is tons of it now.

Some from even an hour ago.

It's just old fashioned lazy journalism. One sketchy news source publishes an article and everyone just rewords it in hopes of it turning out to be true so they can brag about leaking it.

Oh well, delete the thread then.

Didn't know there was already so much information.

GV also tried to get MBV last year but didn't.



We'll see what happens later this week.

But Bowie might get confirmed like Prince did: right before the festival

I wouldn't doubt it. Bowie would sell over 10,000 more tickets right when the initial push starts dying down...

Plus it would get insane headlines.

Yup.

that's true. but if they can get someone as stubborn as Prince, they could get Bowie too
