"About ABC 2002
Peter Jennings will anchor an evening of reflection and anticipation for the New Year, live from the Rose Center for Earth and Space at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City.
The ABC News special, "ABC 2002," will feature New Year's Eve celebrations from across the globe from such locations as London, Rio de Janeiro, Capetown, Moscow and Jerusalem. The show will also include performances from some of the world's top musical artists, including Sting and U2.
Joining Jennings at the Rose Center and from around the world will be ABC News correspondents, newsmakers and entertainers and other special guests who will gather together for this year-end broadcast to share their stories, thoughts and hopes for the coming year.
Incorporating many of the highly successful elements of the 24-hour "ABC 2000" Millennium coverage, the program will feature the best of the grand celebrations and the intimate assemblies taking place this year in the United States and throughout the world, from such far-flung locations as London, Capetown, Moscow, Jerusalem, Tokyo, Rio de Janeiro, Deer Valley, Utah (setting for the Olympics skiing competition), Washington, DC, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Edinburgh (Scotland), Salt Lake City, Minneapolis and, of course, New York's Times Square.
"ABC 2002" will narrow the focus of its lens to explore the issues and events that brought us to this New Year and the challenges that we face in the coming year with special guests and newsmakers who provide particular experience or insight into our world on this memorable day. The program will also celebrate our successful journey to this year-end with performances from some of the world's most accomplished entertainers through live or taped performances across the country and around the world. These will include U2, Sting, Arlo Guthrie and many others. Guthrie will perform "This Land Is Your Land," a song originally written and performed by his father, the legendary Woody Guthrie. "
Although I like the thought of bringing in the New Year with U2 uhm, well I'm not quite sure what to make of it.
