Tributes to David Bowie continue to be on exactly the scale the Starman deserves, with New York City officially declaring January 20, 2016 – so, today in the U.S. – to be David Bowie Day.
Fittingly enough, NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio is going to read the full proclamation tonight after the final performance of the sold-out run of Lazarus, a production conceived and co-produced by Bowie.
Bowie’s Facebook page announced the news today:
BOWIE DAY DECLARED IN NY AS ? HITS #1 WORLDWIDE“New York’s in love…”DAVID BOWIE ? FIRST #1 U.S. ALBUM TOPS CHARTS…
Posted by David Bowie on Wednesday, 20 January 2016
It comes three days after ‘Blackstar‘, his 28th and final album, hit #1 in the U.S. just one week after his death. Still not okay with any of this, tbh.
