David Bowie Birthday Bash at Howard House Jan. 8

Kensington DIY space Howard House will be hosting a David Bowie Birthday Bash tonight. At the event, there will be a full art installation dedicated to the iconic rock star who turns 67 years old today. There will also be musical performances by Nicos Gun, who recently shared a couple of new tracks from their upcoming album Dream Vacation, rock ‘n’ rollers Black Stars, Fat Possum’s Mean Lady and I am Bowie (featuring members of i am Love), who will be covering the master’s works. Admission is FREE if you show up dressed like David Bowie. (Sidenote: I once saw David Bowie crossing the street near me and a group of friends in NYC. When one of them pointed him out, he looked at us. We all looked in amazement and jerked forward towards him at the same time. He turned quickly and took off. Being all pretty good concertgoers, we decided to give him his privacy, and stopped ourselves from chasing after him. Then, we walked a couple feet, turned and looked at each other, and started screaming with joy while we high-fived. That’s my David Bowie story. Cheers!) Howard House, (Please contact one of the acts or venue for more info.), 8pm, $7 (Free if in Bowie attire), All Ages – Q.D. Tran
