Had to share this one with you:
BOWIE'S NEW BOOK BREAKS THE BANK

David Bowie's limited edition autographed book - 'Moon Age Daydream: The
Life & Times of Ziggy Stardust' - will soon be available from Genesis
Publishing. The bad news is, it will cost around £280. The book, which was
assembled by Bowie and photographer Mick Rock, was conceived to coincide
with the upcoming 30th anniversary of Bowie's album 'The Rise and Fall of
Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars'. Only 2,500 copies are being
printed. 'Moon Age Daydream' features text from Bowie and Rock as well as
many rare and previously unseen photos, including pictures of memorabilia
such as handwritten lyrics.

To me when an artist of this stature does this, he:
a) proves he doesn't give one almighty toss about his fan base
b) his career must be in a mess if he's reduced to this
c) if it isn't, let's hope it soon will be
