Serious Moonlight getting the deluxxxe DVD treatment

from billboard.com:

David Bowie will release a refurbished edition of his "Serious Moonlight" concert DVD March 13 via EMI, according to his Web site. The DVD spotlights a September 1983 show in Vancouver filmed and directed by David Mallet and features such favorites as "Fashion," "Rebel Rebel," "Young Americans," "Ahses to Ashes" and "China Girl."

"Moonlight" is rounded out with a 78-minute cut of the tour documentary "Ricochet," filmed in such locales as Singapore, Bangkok and Hong Kong. In addition, a four-song, digital only EP will be released Feb. 13, encompassing the audio from the DVD tracks "Space Oddity," "Breaking Glass," "China Girl" and "Young Americans."

looking forward to it!

I can't wait!

david is the King of the reissue. knowing this, i've learned to embrace it and welcome the material.

very excited about this!!

Where the hell is my Young Americans!?

Is he like the George Lucas of Rock?

well, he doesn't mess with his original recordings as much.

Do I really even need to see the Serious Moonlighter performing in his yellow suit? I'd much rather see the Station to Station White Light show, or the "Heroes"/Low tour that Stage came from. Is the Glass Spider tour on DVD yet? If not, I'd expect taht to be following soon.

when did bowie sell his rights? i knew he was selling stock in his material but that is a big difference from selling the rights. can you point me in the direction of an article that talks about this because i'd love to read why in the world bowie would do something so stupid! its really not in his character at all; he's such a smooth business man.

well it happened way back in 1999 but he got a $100mil in cash for it i think i dont remeber all the details

i see on bowienet that they're going to release the live tracks of him and arcade fire as a download ep!

of course, i already "obtained" it weeks ago, but it's worth buying!
