Read more below, or go back to SwingGoth.com You might have heard of Bowie. In the 60's he was Davey Jones, a potential British Invader who's name was robbed from him by a Monkey. Still, who can forget The Laughing Gnome? In the 70's he was Major Tom, The Man Who Fell to Earth and Sold the World, Ziggy Stardust, The Diamond Dog, and The Thin White Duke... In the 80's he rose from the Ashes, turned into a vampire, was promoted from Duke to King (of the goblins - talk about Scary Monsters!), fell into Modern Love with a China Girl, and we all took shelter Underground as The World Fell Down… In the 90's he dawned a White Tie, took a step Outside, and became an Earthling. This is our chance to celebrate EVERYTHING Bowie. All in one night. It promises to be an event to remember! Come in costume, come to spectate, come to dance, but you'll regret it if you don't come. Dance lessons for "Absolute Beginners" from 8:30-9:45 consist of two rotations and three instructors teaching Swing, Waltz and Blues dancing. In these lessons you'll learn the basics required to fully participate in the Ball to follow. $15 in advance, $20 at the door Buy your tickets now to make sure you get one! http://www.gamh.com/artist_pages/bowie_ball_060509.htm Charge by phone at: 1-888-233-0449 Box Office 10:30-6:00 M-F |
