I don't really know if this would be any good for such a big gig, but it would be interesting for sure.

The songs:

Aladdin Sane - I really don't think any track from Reality would have been either good or fitting enough to be used on this occasion. This piece segues into...
On Broadway - With Karl Bartos (of Kraftwerk fame) guesting on percussion. The piano of this piece then segues into...
Ashes To Ashes - The classic to be used instead of "Heroes" (I briefly considered Let's Dance but it might not have been quite fitting for the occasion).


The band:

David Bowie - vocals (obviously)
Mike Garson - piano
Philip Glass - keyboards
Carlos Alomar - guitar
Mark Plati - bass
Matt Chamberlain - drums
Karl Bartos - percussion (possibly vocals) on 'On Broadway'
