A small point: not everyone likes being called by their real-life names on these boards

Why not open yet another poll and let's see Sys, for goodness sakes when someone tells me they don't like their name being used! then I shall stop it, you are coming across as a nag Sys

Oh and Clude Im very pleased you got two tickets

Being a nag seems to be my job here these days.

I happen to know that several users in addition to myself dislike this habit. Some people don't mind it, others do; you can't make a general rule about using or not using people's real names. It might be advisable to use a person's real name only if you know the person in question does not object to your using it.

Sooooooooooooo . . . is this Fashion Rocks thingy broadcast on US TV? If so, what channel? What time?

Nice to see Bowie back--regardless of what he sings.

I believe last years version was aired on A&E at one time or another.

Firstly this is great news and about time too, Im not so sure he'll just go along with singing Fashion, Im sure this be a glimpse of the new Bowie, the Bowie that will hopefully tour next year, as for the song he'll sing? well he could just surprise us all with a new song and not "( She Can ) Do That", maybe it's my wishful thinking.


I guess so. Maybe they will just show last year's "Fashion" video again?

I just hope he hasn't been reduced to a lopsided feeble old man following his heart ~thing~.

Yes; I REALLY hope he is healthy and ok...but I wouldnt be suprised if it did have an effect on him-he is human, despite what it seems some people belief; and he wasnt exactly young...

I suppose all we can do is hope for the best and see...

When I wrote that, it did actually ram it home how horrid it would be to see Bowie just deteriorate... crumb to death over the next couple of years. I'm a cynical git, but that would break my heart.
