A David Bowie fan site — travels · live shows · art · collecting
ALADN SANE
say it out loud — a lad insane · aladdin sane
One lifelong Bowie fan, chasing the work around the world — the pilgrimages, the live shows, the art, and a collection that got a little out of hand.
Who’s behind this
About me
I’m Shan — hooked on David Bowie since I was ten, the day “Let’s Dance” came over the radio back in southern Illinois. I even crossed paths with the man himself once, briefly, on his Reality tour. Still grinning about it.
These days I cut curly hair here in Boston and spend my days off chasing Bowie around the world — shows, exhibitions, conventions, the whole thing. “Aladnsane” was my old BowieNet handle (say it out loud); I was born the year Aladdin Sane came out, so really, it was always going to be him.
The obsession, sorted
The Bowie World
Everything used to live on one crowded page. Now it’s broken into the places I’ve been, the shows I’ve seen, the art, and the collecting.
Pilgrimages
Bowie Travels
The places — exhibitions, residences, the David Bowie Centre, and everywhere in between.
On stage
Live Shows
Concerts and tribute nights — Holy Holy, Celebrating David Bowie, Sound + Vision and more.
On the wall
Bowie Art
The artwork — pieces I’ve made, found, and fallen for over the years.
On the shelf
Collecting
Records, prints, and the rest of a collection that keeps quietly growing.
