Sailor's Journals 1998-2006

Don't really remember where I got it from... Possibly from some Russian fan, who was a member of BowieNet back then, when David used to be online and 'hang out' with regular people... Those were the days... I vaguely remember downloading it around 2008-2009...

It's a compilation of his "dairy" posts on BowieNet, plus some random posts in the end of year 2000.
The archive contains 2 pdf files, nothing more. But when I read it for the first time... it was so amazing, like finally feeling closer and getting to know him (if that was/is possible at all).

[Initially it was separated by years - every year in a separate file, but I've compiled it all in one for printing purposes back then...]

I've remembered about it when I saw the Zoolander 2 trailer. Because David talks about being in Zoolander at some point...

The big Scary has never left driftwood. He's just been loading up on carrot boosters. Bigger and Better!  ;)

Nice to "Cedar" you're back in form! Be careful though of my Oz cousin "Silky Myrtle" who often sings the following little ditty...

"Mama's wittle baby woves wabbit, wabbit, Mama's wittle baby woves wabbit stew!" :D

Who said I'm a принцесса? And since when did you start using Cyrillic?  8o    :D

Well, I hope that Google translate is correct otherwise we'd better start running! :-)

OMG this is AMAZING, I am really enjoying it.  By the way, a quote

"Tony Visconti, Reevz and I had a blast earlier this month working together on the Lennon track 'Mother' for a tribute album that will surface next year. "

I never even heard of this, thank you. (I think this is the first of many more thank yous from this Journal download!)

Found it at Youtube!

from 1998:
"5pm RUMOUR. I'm planning a stage production of a career retrospective. Not true. As Teenage Wildlife speculated this story may have spun off from the news that I'm working on a Ziggy project."

Haha, spyprettygirl, I'm honestly glad you are enjoying it! These Journals are indeed amazing  O:-D

When I just got these files, I printed everything and made it into a hardcover book (there's a small place near my old university in Abakan, and students usually make covers for their thesis works there).
