Nerds are by definition outsiders. If you think differently, loose yourself in fiction or history, or do something strange that the "normies" can't categorize, you're certain to find yourself walking a more solitary path. Lucky us the way ahead has been lit by the luminary nerds before us. Luckier still that we lived in a world with David Bowie, a nerd who transformed our reality into a weirder, wilder, geekier place.Join Cap and Marc With A C, two Bowie-obsessed peoploids, as they share their love of this Lad Insane and personal stories of how the Thin White Duke changed their lives. It's a crash course for the ravers and the novices too with tales from deep in small town record bins and long-forgotten shopping malls, a first-hand account of the longest show Bowie ever played, and strange or little-known facts about the wild-eyed boy from Brixton.
