One of my few rock and roll regrets is that I did not attend more David Bowie performances while he was still with us. My first Bowie concert was at Madison Square Garden for the tour which would turn out to be the double live “Stage” album. We had rear orchestra seats a little left center from the stage to witness one of the legendary performers of this or any era. The tour followed the Berlin trilogy albums and “Station to Station” was one of many highlights. I would get to see David Bowie in concert only one other time at Giants Stadium during the “Let’s Dance” mega-tour. While Bowie was, and is, one of my all time favorite performers, for some reason I always seemed to miss him when he was on tour. The most befuddling to me is when he played a show in each of the five New York City boroughs, which I believe was never attempted before or since. How I did not catch one of those gigs is beyond me.
