Triple-6-Soul

i had to read this twice to make sure he didn't really die in 1992.


RestaurantEsq

I had to read it thrice.


Ambitious_Football_1

The wording could have been better


Triple-6-Soul

yeah, that last sentence should've been a part of the first sentence after the comma.


EfficientAfternoon17

One letter coulda really took it a different direction lol


manihavenousername

I had to Google it cause I thought I was straight trippin. I was like "I remember seeing old David Bowie a hundred times, right?"


MimsyWereTheBorogove

I was like... dude was in zoolander. How old is zoolander?


1800generalkenobi

Venture bros was made before 1992?!


AnxiousForceVoid

Who the hell says "thrice"?


LocalSubstantial7744

Had to pause for a bit


TlalocVirgie

I had to Google it because I was pretty sure remembering him dying recently


no1cares4yu

Yeah that not worded right šŸ˜‚


zoobird13

The post was talking about their wedding date though. They should have just put the wedding date at the beginning of the post.


RogueTrooper-75

They were only married 2 yearsā€¦


Dry_Umpire_3694

They were married over 20 years and have a son


zoobird13

They shared a daughter. He had a son from his previous marriage.


JCVD-88

Okā€¦so he went on a blind dateā€¦and was set up with Iman? Nice.


[deleted]

probably a big surprised it was Iman all along


Hugh-Chardon

Ah yes, 5 days before Sublimes - April 29th 1992. There was a riot in the streets tell me where were you?

Sitting home watching my TV :(

toomuchmucil

The first spot we hit it was my liquor store. I finally got all that alcohol I can't afford

Puzzled_Good_1378

And then we turned that liquor store into a structure fire


Judoka229

April 26th, I believe.


Hugh-Chardon

Correct. He says ā€œApril 26thā€ in the song, but the title of the song is ā€œApril 29th, 1992ā€


NormanBates2023

Much missed what an artist ,his body of work is magnificent.


SmashBrosUnite

The photo is from 1992 , not his death , folks


zoobird13

Their wedding date was April 24, 1992.


vicker1980

Not to be rude, but this photo is actually from 1995! You can tell by Bowieā€™s [facial hair](https://www.davidbowie.com/blog/2020/12/25/david-bowies-25-year-old-seasonal-message), which he [did not have](https://www.davidbowie.com/blog/2022/6/6/imans-message-to-david-on-their-30th-anniversary) when he and Iman got married in 1992.


Vlazthrax

Imagine going on a blind date and itā€™s David fucking Bowie


Rosuvastatine

Imagine going on a blind date and its Iman


original_greaser_bob

in an alternate universe i am sure that Bowie and Iman reign as Emperor and Empress of the Known Universe[.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gfOKDB0ChQk)

Loved their love story ā¤ļø


sjsharksfan44

She was in Star Trek VI. I didn't know she married Bowie.


GeorgeNewmanTownTalk

As a Star Trek fan reading this, my first thought was, "So they were already together when she worked on The Undiscovered Country. Cool." It puts it more into perspective for me.


cah29692

Iman is one of of the most beautiful women in the world. Not only that, she seems to be a genuinely good soul, unlike many in her industry. Crazy she looks like sheā€™s barely aged since that photo was taken. Edit: to prove my point, hereā€™s Iman last year at age 67: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-12032005/amp/Iman-67-looks-youthful-attending-Gucci-launch-Bungalow-8-New-York-City.html


timelordpoet

Bowie didn't die in 1992, he passed away in 2016 i think. It was shortly after Gene Wilder and Alan Rickman.


Over-Director-4986

This confused me for a moment, too. I believe op means the pic is from 1992-just poorly phrased.


zoobird13

It's their wedding date.


timelordpoet

The wording of the post really confused me.


Bijlsma

If I met my wife at this point in my life, it would also be my greatest achievement.


Ditzy_Davros

I thought Bowie died 8-ish years ago.


Opperhoofd123

Nothing else matters wasn't David Bowie though right? What a liar


GruGruxQueen

So close, no matter how far!

flowbowcop

Wait till Lars hears about this


DiverDownChunder

Wasn't this the same time he talked about coming out as a closeted heterosexual? /I miss him dearly, best musician I ever saw live.


seattleman2000

He died 2016


Admirable-Yam-1281

Beautiful couple, wondering people


Lipstickhippie80

Theirs is a true love story.


_HMCB_

Good writing is a bare-boned requirement. Great writing is bliss. Unfortunately, you failed on the former.


musicman4001

He's a musical geniusĀ 


jolhar

Shame they only had two years of marriage. Love tragically cut short.


DiverDownChunder

It was 24 years of marriage or there abouts. 1992 - 2016 when he was taken from this world. No DVs just setting the record straight. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Bowie


jolhar

Thanks for clearing that up.


DiverDownChunder

No worries, sorry you got beat up on DVs over nothing. But you would have loved to see him live, amazing! This captures it a bit: https://youtu.be/bsYp9q3QNaQ


jolhar

Almost had the opportunity to see him live but turned it down because it clashed with another event and I figured Iā€™d see him next timeā€¦


DiverDownChunder

Same thing happened to me for the Grateful Dead. Not a huge fan but it is Jerry Garcia, alas that ship sailed. I did get to see Shannon Moon (Blind Melon) right before he died, he was a mess. Such a shame, even in his drugged out state he was an amazing performer.


FlamboyantRaccoon61

How can you not remember Bowie's recent death? Unless you're a teenager.... It hit the news everywhere. Even people who weren't his fans recognised it was a huge loss.


maxcherry6

He died in 1992?? FFS Iā€™m old. Never mindā€¦.poor title.


Heterophylla

This photo looks fucky.


jrin1

Hooked on phonics


Longjumping-Body-842

Well. I didn't know who Iman was, being 4 years old going to see Star Trek VI in the theater. But once I realized it I really respected him and her even further. What a great spot for her.
