David Bowie: A Reality Tour (2004)
What a show
Bowie wanders seamlessly through thirty years of songs, from Rebel Rebel to his new album and songs such as "New Killer Star" and the title track "Reality." It really showcases his talent, and the incredible, elaborate performances of his musicians, Earl Slick and Gail Ann Dorsey, among others. Without kimonos or clown suits or red gogo boots, the Thin White Duke delivers a show in Dublin as powerful as "the Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust." Rather than donning classic gear and milking his countless images, like Kiss or Michael Jackson, Bowie soars above all superstars in pair of black jeans and converse. His radiant smile during "All the Young Dudes," or sly wink during "Changes" commands attention, and his voice has grown stronger through the years. When he hits the final note in Ziggy Stardust, it soars over the entire crowd. A Reality Tour is an introspective look at a career that spawns and morphs and changes and improves at every turn. One hell of a concert, not one to miss. Buy it!
