Dublin puts on the best Bowie party, hands down. I was so pleased to be invited back to take part. On the Friday, a Station to Station listening party at Whelan's and a fun conflab with Pat McCarty and John Brereton.
On the Sunday morning, "I'm A Blackstar" at the Royal College of Surgeons, with guitar legend Gerry Leonard and Róisín Ingle. Later that afternoon, "Books for Kooks", convened by Eoin Devereux, alongside Peter Quinn and Helena Mulkerns. Each of us chose one book from Bowie's list of a hundred to discuss - I brought Peter Ackroyd's Hawksmoor.
