Bowie In Talks To Headline Coachella Festival?
Reports in the US claim he’s been asked to perform ‘72 album ‘The Rise and Fall Of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars’ in its entirety…
Coachella chiefs have reportedly launched a bid for David Bowie to headline the festival, following talks for last year’s event falling through.
A source told today’s Daily Star: “Coachella tried to book Bowie last year and he refused, so they got Prince to headline instead. But there's a very strong chance they will be able to persuade him this year.”
It’s been suggested the musical chameleon has been asked to perform his 1972 concept album, ‘The Rise and Fall Of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars’, in full.
Last week a Twitter user posting under the name David Bowie wrote a message saying: “Cheers form a snowy Berlin! Working on some new material!”
Bowie’s people are yet to confirm or deny if it was the man himself updating the world on his next album.
