According to the Thin White Duke’s longtime producer Tony Visconti, during recording sessions for David Bowie’s recently announced latest album, The Next Day, the singer was apparently “fairly adamant he’s never gonna perform live again.” Visconti told NME that “one of the guys would say, ‘Boy, how are we gonna do all this live?’ and David said, “We’re not.’” Lest any starry-eyed deniers wistfully think, “Oh, maybe he just meant they won't be playing that one part of that one song,” Visconti goes on to say that Bowie has made a point of saying he wouldn’t be performing “all the time.” Still, maybe he’ll do The Colbert Report or something?
