0012 UTC OM with "Accelerate", into "Rebel, Rebel"-David Bowie
0016 UTC "Golden Years"-David Bowie
0020 UTC OM with "XLR8", into UNID Bowie tune
(Some interesting Bowie tunes played...think there was some Tin Machine in there...not familiar with these)
0047 UTC OM with "XLR8", into "Fame"-David Bowie with John Lennon
0052 UTC "Golden Years"-David Bowie Live version
0102 UTC OM with "XLR8-Accelerate" and OFF
