Dawn of a New Age
Absolutely stunned by what I saw on September 28, 1972 at Carnegie Hall. I was 18 years old and read a story in the New York Times that day about a newcomer from England named David Bowie and his Spiders from Mars. Talked a couple of friends into going, got in the car and drove to NYC., bought scalpers tickets for 15 BUCKS!!! Had about 20th row seats and was mesmerized as they emerged to Beethoven music and strobe lights. Saw Anthony Perkins arriving and realized he was gay as I saw him up close.The music was fantastic, different, unique and for me, it was the end of the 60's in one resounding night.
I went on to discover all Bowie's previous music and saw him next at Radio City in 1973. This time, I was ready.
