Vancouver Concerts in the '70s and '80s

David Bowie - Serious Moonlight Tour Vancouver 1983

Praying to the light machine

I could make it all worth while as a rock 'n' roll star

Under the moonlight, this serious moonlight

Wonder if he'll ever know, he's in the best selling show

We are the goon squad and we're coming to town

You love bands when they play it hard

Scary monsters, super creeps, Keep me running, running scared

Planet Earth is blue, and there's nothing I can do.

Oh baby just you shut your mouth, she says... sh-sh- shhh
