A UK exhibition tour of many ‘never before seen’ photograph­s of David Bowie has been extended to include a visit to Peterborou­gh next spring.

After a sell out 2016 tour, Off Beat Lounge, in conjunctio­n with David Bowie’ s official photograph­er, Denis O’Regan have added an extra eight locations to their 2017 UK tour of Mini dealership­s, exhibiting forty photograph­s, many of which have never been seen by the public before, documentin­g Denis’ time touring the world with David Bowie.

The tour will now visit the Sycamore MINI showroom on Papyrus Road, Werrington, for one night only on June 8.

As well as being official photograph­er to Bowie during the 1983 Serious Moonlight Tour, the 1987 Glass Spider Tour and the 1990 Sound and Vision Tour, Denis O’Regan was also the photograph­er at events such as The Concert for Diana and Live Aid.

Through the 1980s and 1990s, Denis toured the world as official photograph­er to the Rolling Stones, Queen, Duran Duran, Pink Floyd, Spandau Ballet, Thin Lizzy, Neil Diamond and the Bee Gees.

Denis said: “I’m really looking forward to coming to Peterborou­gh for this exhibition, which pulls together a decade of travelling around the world with David. It’s been a real trip down memory lane for me, of time I spent with a great, great friend, both on stage and during our down time between concerts.”
