"I think rock should be tarted up, made into a prostitute, a parody of itself.
It should be the clown, the Pierrot medium."
- David Bowie, 1971
Come! Worship the glam godfathers.
Come! Pay respects to their jangly successors.
Come! Share tales, bands, pictures, books, magazines, and the equally fabulous ways you keep the glitz alive.
Over 30 years and still going strong.
