David Bowie spent four days rehearsing with his new backing band, the Riot Squad, from 13-16 March 1967.
This was the third of the four dates, which took place at the Swan pub in Tottenham, London. The pub, which closed in 2008, was situated at 363 High Road, on the corner of Philip Lane.
The Riot Squad’s first live show with Bowie was on 17 March at Basildon’s Woodlands Youth Centre.
