After the release of his superb The Next Day album and all the accompanying interest that has gone with it, including the V&A exhibition, a nationwide screen of David Bowie Is Happening Now will close the exhibition.
Other big draws this week include Iron Maiden, who will close out their European tour on home soil in August, the final farewell tour for Your Demise, plus lots of rock and metal action from the likes of Less Than Jake, Steve Vai, a Metal Hammer - Defenders of the Faith tour and progressive behemoths Dream Theater. Early onsales include Laura Marling, Kodaline and Deerhunter.
By the way - that French dude Charles Aznavour? He's a huge star across the channel and is performing an exclusive London show in October, his first over here for 25 years. Way to go.
