David Bowie and Elvis Presley…sharing a birthdate and a record label (RCA Records & Tapes), these rebel, rebels caused a lot of pelvises to rock and roll. Here's a chance for fans of either or both acts to celebrate their music, personas, and lives. The annual Bowie & Elvis Birthday Bash returns, and uniquely among other events, presents the music, image and legend of these two iconic artists who each changed popular culture as none other, and now are both no longer with us.
