2000s - #4: On June 11, 2002, David Bowie released the album, Heathen, which would reach # 14 on the Billboard charts, his highest charting album in the US since Tonight in 1984. The disc also earned some of his strongest reviews since Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps) in 1980. Worldwide, Heathen sold over two million copies and ranked in the top 5 on the charts in England, France, Germany, Norway and Denmark. Most significantly, the album dealt with Bowie’s impressions of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the US. Bowie was living in NY at the time of the attacks, and opened the Concert For New York City at Madison Square Garden in October 2001 that raised money for victims of the tragedy. Heathen, with songs such as Slow Burn, that described a world coming apart and gripped by fear, and Sunday, with lyrics such as "Nothing remains...everything has changed”, reflected the devastating impact of that day. Bowie went on a short summer tour in support of the disc, and then scheduled 7 extra shows on the East Coast in October. The first 5 of those shows were christened the New York Marathon Tour, as Bowie played 1 show in each of NYC’s five boroughs. He quipped that “I could get home from all the gigs on roller skates”. This Soundboard/IEM recording captures Bowie on the 2nd of his 5 nights in NY, at St. Ann’s Warehouse in Brooklyn, on October 12, 2002, 22 years ago today. Download this one to hear Bowie play Heathen live, along with many of his classics, just slightly over a year after the events that inspired the album.

Could you re post this link? Many Thanks
I've been listening to other DB shows from 2002 and am in love with his band and these arrangements. Any chance you could re-up this one (again)? If not, no worries, you've given me so much music through the years.
new link is up - enjoy!
Thank you so much!
Hi Speedy, at your convenience, whatever time frame works for you, would you be able to repost or renew the link to this show? From your description is seems like a very good one. 2002 Bowie shows are great and this would make a great listen. Thanks!
new link is up - enjoy!
Oh my, that was 'speedy'! Thanks, gonna give it a go!
Great sound, digging this one. The nuances of David Bowie's vocals and delivery of feature a bit more in the IEM mix. And this performance, just about to the date, 20 years ago David and the band played. We miss him.
Thanks for keeping it alive.
thanks for sharing.
