Posted April 19, 201114 yr What I d like to see is a big one off day night concert this summer... say late July in the Wembley Arena.... basically a Bowie concert but with some up and coming acts to kick off things at 2 pm.. then maybe a few spots by established singers such as Cathy Denis, Kate Perry, Bananarama Then Bowie comes on at 7 pm and does an hour and half set.... Billy Idol takes over at 8. 30 and does a 1 and 1/2 hour set with his hit songs like In the Midnight Hour.... White Wedding,.... Eyes without a Face.... At 10 pm Bowie comes back on stage ... Bowie and Billy do a few songs together till 10 . 30... Then Bowie takes centre stage and runs on till midnight 30 with some of his classic hits like ..... Man Who Sold the World, Lady Stardust.... Star Man and a ton of his other songs... At midnight 30 all the acts come on stage for a final sing along.... running on till 1 am when it all comes to an end. That would be one hot concert and also a great tribute to Billy Idol, who deserves a bit of recognition........... a fab night for the great Bowie too... a night to remember ! !
April 19, 201114 yr Bowie would never choose acts like those to support him. Not his style or his area of interest. Much more likely to have bands like Arcade Fire as established supports. Apart from his own back catalogue he doesn't really look to the past when it comes to music. Also he's effectively retired from performing these days. One of the best live acts I've ever seen
April 19, 201114 yr Author I dont know why he does nt do the odd big one off concert like the above, it would be a big event for everyone and for Bowie, not exactly taxing !
April 19, 201114 yr Bowie retired due to ill health - he's had 2 heart attacks and last year was reported to have had a stroke. As much as I'd love to see him again.... I think the chances are pretty slim.... :( And as fine as Bananarama are, I can't see Bowie liking their style much ;)
April 19, 201114 yr Author Yes, the guy has got to think of his own health and well being, that comes first without doubt. Maybe a relaxing cruise this summer... the Greek islands .....
