Live: Carrier Dome, Syracuse
6 September 1983 | Live, Serious Moonlight Tour
David Bowie performed at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse, New York, on 6 September 1983, as part of the Serious Moonlight Tour.

It was the 68th date of the tour, which began on 18 May in Brussels.

Bowie’s guitarists were Carlos Alomar and Earl Slick. Dave Lebolt was on keyboards and synthesizers, and Steve Elson, Stan Harrison, Lenny Pickett played saxophones. Carmine Rojas played bass guitar and Tony Thompson was on drums and percussion. George and Frank Simms were the backing singers.

This was Bowie’s only show in Syracuse. It had originally been scheduled for 23 July but was postponed to this date.

Sept. 6, 1983 – David Bowie

It is rare when the word “perfect” is used to describe a Carrier Dome concert. Reviewer Robert A. Baker used it, though, for David Bowie. “Everything came together for a perfect concert,” Baker wrote. “The stage and lighting effects were excellent. Bowie was in perfect voice and the band was hot and tight.” Bowie came on stage singing “Waiting So Long” and then moved into “Heroes” which the crowd of 28,820 danced to and joined in the chorus of.
