The "Celebrating David Bowie" concert was held in Bowie's
birthplace of Brixton in south London, nearly a year after the
legendary musician died of cancer.
The sold-out event was organized by Hollywood actor Gary Oldman
and featured performances by Bowie's friends and former band
members, including keyboardist Mike Garson and guitarist Earl
Slick.
"It's a little funny, not ha ha funny, but you know being
together and there's no David here and doing the show, but it's
a great opportunity ... it just feels good to be with the band,"
Slick said.
