LEGENDARY STARDUST COWBOY
"No one knows what's going to happen when the Legendary Stardust Cowboy takes the stage. Decked out in a cowboy hat and boots, spurs, leather chaps, and a jean jacket with his name emblazoned on the back, the 69-year-old singer carries a bugle and shoots off a pistol filled with blanks. He may ride a stick horse around stage and he'll probably strip down to his underwear, but he never plays the same show twice. There's one thing that's certain with the man his fans call "The Lege." He'll begin, and likely finish, each of his performances with "Paralyzed," a wild, unintelligible song alternately acknowledged as one of the worst ever recorded and a masterpiece of outsider art. It's the song that landed him a major label record contract, made him a cult figure, and ultimately immortalized him as the inspiration for David Bowie's iconic alter ego, Ziggy Stardust." - Noisey
