[Sa...] Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Wait Nick, (sorry this is back to my non trivia intrusion)...there’s only black or white...so you mathematically can only have 2blacks and a white, 3 blacks, three whites and a black or three whites. That’s it. See, easy peasy (so if you pull the same color....it’s a match) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Yo...] Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Yup! Here's the clip... A warning to anyone who may be watching, some may find it frightening/upsetting, and there is brief male nudity. But great practical effects from a time before Hollywood relied on CGI.

[wa...] Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Shoot. I knew there had to be one before Aladdin Sane. Couldn't think of it. Good job, Dee! Did she get it, Shook? Or is there another one in there we aren't thinking of? (There were so many! What a genius!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Yo...] Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 If you look at this article, it mentions Major Tom and Aladdin Sane as preceding Halloween Jack, but then says "Halloween Jack is Bowie’s first post-Ziggy persona"...

[Yo...] Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I think Tom and Sane are considered part of the Ziggy era. It's complicated. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Yo...] Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 https://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/inside-david-bowies-colorful-personas/story?id=36216413 This one makes no mention of Tom or Sane. From Ziggy to Halloween Jack to Thin White Duke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[wa...] Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Hmm...it does list Major Tom at the bottom, and refers to him as preceding Ziggy, due to the character being visually referenced first. Since they are "stage personas" I would think the order would be the order in which he portrayed the character onstage? But... It seems weird to leave out Aladdin Sane, since the character was deliberately created to replace Ziggy, and graced his most iconic album cover. But I digress. Nobody wins? Another question?

[So...] Posted February 25, 2019 Author Share Posted February 25, 2019 Missed the whole Bowie question - and I love David Bowie's music so much. There was a really good exhibit of his life at the Brooklyn Museum a little while ago. I am better at this game at night - let's all play tonight and heal our benzo brains with trivia!

[Yo...] Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Per the David Bowie Wiki, here's the order of his personas: Major Tom, Ziggy Stardust, Aladdin Sane, Halloween Jack, The Soul Man, The Thin White Duke, The DJ, Pierrot, Screaming Lord Byron, Jareth the Goblin King, Button Eyes I'm gonna factcheck from now on before asking a question.
