Dream on Stage Boy. You will never get on again. And you are not Bono.

P.S. I would have to say Madonna. Just for the hell of it.

If it was me, I would love to see U2 & Eric Clapton do one killer rendition of 'If I could change the world' or 'Tears in heaven'... or even U2's 'Starin at the Sun'... something acoustic... Perhaps thats just me... but I would love that... how moving would that be? *wants to cry* lol

DeathBear: So Damn Funny! My initial response was identical...

It costs a fortune to look this trashy.
 
Why would U2 not play their *own* song.

There are plenty of good U2 songs they could sing with a dedication before hand, why must it be a cover? I don't go to U2 shows to hear them sing other people's songs.

Sorry.

You're right, but it would be great to see something really special this time. Something like the Amnesty shows, or the other collaborations and jammings they've done on stage over the years.

Sledge-You know that very song crossed my mind,Iam a big Peter G. fan

The line-"War w/o tears!" was a little too depressing tho.
Peter's best song live is San Jacinto-(sp) dont you think?-#9

Dr Miller,

I would encourage you and Sicy to go back and reread the original post.

I spoke of having Bono and Bowie on stage together.

My name is "Diamond" I never claimed to be "Bowie".Nor do I want to cover his material live.

Now Bowie has and albulm called "Diamond Dogs" and for the record I've been addressed as both. But that is a different story.

Thank you for taking time to respond to my thread.

Have a great day-
(chuckling to myself)

This is totally irrelevant, but I think itd be kinda cool for U2 to cover the song 'lets get it on', just to see what theyd do with it.

I say, go with a more or less 'regular' elevation setlist. Trying for something overly meaningful may or may not work. I think the passion of the band and the energy/emotion of the audience will take it's own direction. Bono's always great for feeding off the crowd and using that to great effect. We'll just have to see.......

OK -time for a 'diamondsidenote'-
The 'ExMrsDiamond'loves-Johnny Bravo. So one day she comes home w/a Johhny Bravo tat.No big thing. Then some more tats, Then some piercings,a few more piercings interesting piercings then turns into a bad-biker freakshow.

Then I wake up one day and I says-"Hey how bout if I give YOU half of everything we have? Half of my retirement? Half of our home equity even support your ass to finish school so you can get your 4 yr B.S. that youve been 'doddling'for the last 7.5 yrs thru our marriage?

And then she told me wanted and expected more..(we won't even go into the betrayal or loyalty issuses)
And I let her know I have already given more than I could give and it was starting to turn into a bad version of a song by "Tonic".

And I also told her that I should of dropped her back off at the resturant I found her 8 yrs ago waiting tables..

And now she's calling me up inviting me out for cocktails these days still requesting occassional 'DiamondPonyRides'---

Women!

I always knew that you were from a different planet..

And I dont need to say that 'this is my story and Iam sticking to it" as it is the truth already and the truth stands on its own two feet..

Yeah, San Jacinto is GREAT live, especially the version from the POV video '89.

SO moving!

"Heroes"-by David Bowie.

(I posted this 3 weeks ago on 9-30-2001 so I guess the diamondsuggestion is about to reach fruition,Ladies and Gentlemen)...

I would have it prearranged to have Bowie join Bono on stage. During the opening melodies of that beautiful no. Bowie would come sauntering in from Adam's side . He would be holding his left fist in the air acknowledging the crowd.

Bono would say, "Ladies and Gentleman will you welcome our friend, Mr Bowie to stage!"

Both men would join ea.other at center mic and do a tremendous rendition of this great song. Many in the audience would weep.

What are your thoughts?suggestions?

Hope Brother Mcguiness doesnt call wanting any other hair-brain "diamondideas" for the 3rd leg....

I think I'd just pick Bono up, stick him in under my armpit and spin him till he cries for mercy.
