Setlist
Hang On to Yourself/Ziggy Stardust/Watch That Man/Quicksand/Life on Mars/Memory of a Free Festival/The Prettiest Star/Moonage Daydream/Changes/Space Oddity/The Jean Genie/Time/The Width of a Circle/Let’s Spend the Night Together/Drive-In Saturday/Panic in Detroit/Suffragette City/Cracked Actor/Rock ‘n’ Roll Suicide
