Remember the first kid on your block who had a Davey Crockett coonskin cap? Elvis Presley sideburns? Beatle haircut? Peter Fonda sunglasses? Mick Jagger lips? Well this season it’s David Bowie, and it seems that every where you turn there’s another suburban streetcorner incarnation of that lunar prance.
If you’re one of the aforementioned Bowie mutants, you’re just who we’re looking for. Or even if you're not, maybe one of the pack you run with has been bludgeoned with the flash stick. Turn in your grandmother if she fits the bill. She’ll thank you all the rest of her days.
Why? Because the most perfect Bowie image we can locate is in for a heart-stopping treat: a personal selection from David Bowie’s performance wardrobe. That’s right, David hisself will rummage through his ever-so-fabulous closet and finger a garment that he’s actually worn onstage. That garment will then be presented to the winner of this competition. That’s only the beginning. The five second-place winners will also receive a very special prize, to be selected by David, Mainman and the editors of CREEM. The five third place winners get nothing except the chance to see their divine mugs in the pages of America’s Only Rock ’n’ Roll Magazine.
All you gotta do to put yourself (or a friend) in the running is to take the best photo that local technology allows and send it ffosthaste to:
ZIGGY PROXIES P.O. Box P-1064, Birmingham, Ml 48012
The last day we’ll accept entries for consideration is April Fool’s Day. Anything received after that date will be burned or sent bdck to your mother. So do it now.
