Nope. Press agencies say today that tenor Andrea Boccelli will sing at the funeral and a parade by italian three-coloured airplanes will take place after it.
Bono's presence hasn't been confirmed yet, but anyway, regardless of it, I hope the funeral will be shown on TV to give everyone the opportunity of following the Maestro in his last applaud.
onekea, do you know if the funeral will be aired on the RAI?
I could check RAI ceefax, but I wouldn't be able to read or understand anything anyway..

Thanks for this link, such beautiful, emotional words from Bono, I am totally moved now because of the way he is talking about the life of this great man, his personality and the friendship they both shared.
It's not only about the big notes, it's about the big heart behind those notes.
So true.

I´ll never forget the time he played in Buenos Aires for free. He played on 9 de Julio Avenue and the streets were packed. Man, that was some show!
I'll never forget that man. He has a special place in my heart ´cus my Italian grandparents used to play his records and sing to me in Italian when I was a little girl.

I really hoped it, but unfortunately the TV's programming doesn't relate anything to it yet.
To be honest, I'm not even sure anymore if B. will be there...news keep on legging and confirming it...
...the fact is, tomorrow will be a hard day for Modena.

I wonder if there will be coverage on cnn.com live streaming. there was when Modena was awaiting the arrival of Mr. Pavarotti.
He held such a presence, and seeing some coverage, may make us feel a little more closely connected, in a way.

Good for Bono that he is paying tribute and respect to his friend by attending the funeral, I wonder who else is going to be there. It's such a sad occasion.
Btw, can someone make a downloadable file of the BBC interview, because I would really love to have that on my mp3 walkman, it's so beautiful, but I can only listen to it, not d/l it. Thanks.
