I remember exactly where I was when I first heard of 9/11 (walking down the stairs at Intel Ireland in Leixlip) and Princess Di's death (tinkering around on an old piano in the early hours of the morning after an all-night party in Cape Town). And now I will always remember where I was when I first heard of David's death. I was walking out of the reception of the company I am currently working for and George, the security guy at reception, said to me 'David Bowie's dead'. I told him that's impossible because he had just released an album a few days ago. It seems that Mr Bowie had us all fooled. As you say - he managed to reinvent himself - again! A great bloody loss to the world of real music.
