Complete David Bowie Tribute - The VirtualBowie Show
A One Man Salute To David Bowie
» Profile
Bootleg Bowie UK aka Nick Butcher has been performing in various bands around the UK for many years. Originally a guitarist, then later a lead vocalist/guitarist, Nick finally settled in an 80s tribute group called 80s Revolution.It was only in an attempt to play more gigs during lean times with the group that Nick decided to start a solo tribute to David Bowie, whom he had long admired. Some years on and Bootleg Bowie is going stronger than ever.
The show is constantly evolving as new ideas and songs are incorporated.
The present show boasts a first set of Bowie's 70s era, with costume based on 'Aladin Sane'. Then an onstage magician like change into Slacks and braces from 'The Serious Moonlight Tour', and straight into songs like 'Let's dance' and 'China girl', from Bowie's 80s period.
The third set is more laid back and gives Nick a welcome rest from the more restricting costumes worn in the first set, with one taken from Bowie's more recent ' A Reality Tour '. The songs however remain classics from the 70s and 80s, widely considered to be Bowie's best work.
The show is completely self contained with a powefull compact sound system, lighting and sound enginner.

» Testimonials
Nick played at my 40th party. His Bowie act was superb, the way he preformed Bowie through the years was brilliant. Everyone was up dancing and singing along to all his classic numbers. I would defiantly recommend Nick's act to anyone who is a Bowie fan, all round great entertainment.- Chrissy Burgess
