[the entire Ziggy Stardust Album played on Ukuleles and other odd instruments like accordion and saw!]
Rickshaw Stop -146 Fell Street, San Francisco - June 16th - 9pm

Here's the official missive from my good friend the Uke Apocalypse:
For the last time, the Ukulele Apocalypse presents...
"The Rise and Fall of Uke-y Stardust and the Spiders From Mars"

About a year ago I had a stupid idea, "We should," I thought, "get as many ukulele players as we could to play one seminal classic rock album from beginning to end." There was no question which record it should be.
This stupid idea exploded. Bands were formed, friends were made, projects grew out of projects and eventually, the whole thing had gained a life of its own. In this last year as joint productions we've performed Ukey Stardust 4 times, "Purple Rain - When Ukes Cry", "Everything's a Dollar in this Box - Tom Waits on Cheap Instruments", "Plinkity Pleasures 1 and 2" and about a zillion other gigs all around the Bay Area... it's been a crazy year...and now it's time to move on, (after all, we all do write our own songs!) but not without propping the Starman up one last time to say goodbye.
So here it is...
The show that started it all, from the creators of "Purple Rain - When Ukes Cry". It's an entire evening of David Bowie, culminating in his glam rock masterpiece, from beginning to end, on ukulele.

Featuring: 5 Cent Coffee, Just Henry, Liquor Cake and Stella!
