[gigalot]

One of my favourite ever gigs...there's just not enough footage of it...and I miss the Astoria :-(

[mcgurkryans]

@gigalot Awesome venue... my 1st show in London! I also got to see Roger Daltrey and Razorlight (what happened them??) at the Cancer Trust shows.

[bgrrrlie]

They played this in Stockholm as well!

[mehrenr2]

Erf, I don't like what you guys did to the chorus. Its too hard. Its supposed to come out of nowhere and shock you a bit, but not like that.

David Bowie did NOT write It Ain't Easy even though it's on the Ziggy album.

[RealCoolCat]

Just checked my copy of Ziggy... and it did not say anywhere the song wasn´t written by Bowie. So, I believe he DID write it.

[ElectricLadyLand]

It dont think it was was, actually. The Raconteurs performed an acoustic session with the BBC and did this song, and they said it wasnt written by Bowie.

[RealCoolCat]

Yep, I guess you´re right. Did some researching on the internet and look what I found:

"Written by the American writer Ron Davies (not Ray Davies of The Kinks as some have mistakenly reported) "It Ain't Easy" is the only non-Bowie composition on the Ziggy Stardust album..."

[oliviascissorhands]
