FUN FACTS:
His mother Rita called and baptised him David, but his father Bob nicknamed him “Ziggy” in reference to a marijuana cigarette. An alternative explanation links the nickname to the David Bowie persona “Ziggy Stardust” and his eponymous 1972 album.

WHAT TO EXPECT:
Besides a contact high? Ziggy apparently has the ability to turn his shows into dance parties almost immediately, with everyone in the crowd getting their groove on – from fifty-somethings to twenty-somethings.
