The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust
We think this'll blow your mind.
Overview
If The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust wasn't already MELT's number one must-see event, it certainly is now. What was first conceived as a celebration has become a tribute to the dearly departed icon, attempting to honour the man known as David Robert Jones, David Bowie, Aladdin Sane, the Thin White Duke and, of course, Ziggy Stardust.
It's the latter that's in the spotlight here, with a who's who of Brisbane musicians performing in full the album that brought Bowie's glam-rock persona to the world. Yes, there'll be tears — but there'll also be the joy of timeless tracks such as 'Starman', 'Moonage Daydream', 'Suffragette City', 'Five Years' and 'Rock 'n' Roll Suicide'. Plus, 10% of all proceeds will be donated to the Australian Cancer Research Foundation.
