NYC planning, tickets to be free with VIP for sale.  Clive Davis being tapped to bring in 8 acts.

My question is who might be available to play this thing.  Seems like they would want to go big.  Some of the biggest touring acts in the last 3-5 years would include:

Taylor Swift

Beyonce

Guns 'n' Roses

Lady Gaga

and all those are available.  I am not sure who else.  I would go just for GnR alone.

Foo's at MSG on 6/20 so not them.  Beyeonce/JayZ seems like a good bet.

I would think Beyonce/JayZ would definitely be a distinct possibility.  Also, Alicia Keys.  

I had not thought of it, but U2 would be an amazing get.  They had toured pretty much constantly from 2014-2019, with the last show being in Mumbai.

I bet anything they get that song stealing POS Paul Simon and Garfunkel to play at that thing.  

My first thought was that they were going to get those motherfuckers to headline it, because NYC.

If Springsteen shows up at an event, I think it's more likely it'll be Sea Hear Now in Asbury Park a few weeks later.  They already announced both Patti Scialfa and Patti Smith in the lineup.  And his Broadway show is over by then.

They gotta have Billy Joel too, right?

If he’s still performing then that’s a no-brainer. New York State of Mind would be required. And Miami 2017 because we’ve “seen the lights go out on Broadway.” That would have to happen.

Hearing that Bruce will do a duet with Patti Smith which can only be Because the Night. So expect acts to do a song or two, not full sets.

Pass.
