Let's Dance at Carinda

It is where David Bowie came to film his Let's Dance video 34 years ago.

In its heyday, Carinda was a bustling outback town — there was a cinema, shops, two football teams and a thriving community.

Now, there's a pub and a petrol station.



But that hasn't stopped the remaining residents of this far western New South Wales town coming together to keep their home on the map.

Carinda has looked back to its link to rock and roll history to kick-start what it hopes will be an annual festival.

You are SO right to point that out.
Bowie hated flying - I actually know that.
How he got there is a mystery.

Re: Let's Dance at Carinda

He conquered his fear of flying, after all he did have an apartment in Sydney for 10 years and spent a lot of time there!
