    So who's going to be her musical director for these shows?

    Anyone heard any leaks from those at the friends and family shows regarding content?

    One of the attendees quoted Moments Of Pleasure on their twitter account after the friends and family show.

    I thought Paddy and Del would have been part of the band.

    I didn't know Jon Carin was part of the band, that's cool.

    Del had already said that he wasn't doing the live shows. I thought that John Giblin would do the bass duties as he has played with on and off with Kate since 1980. Paddy would have been a welcome addition though. I guess no didgeridoo then!;)

    In on the thread. According to the Guardian link, the show's program indicates it'll be 1/3 Ninth Wave, 1/3 from Aerial, and 1/3 hits.

    Is Bowie on yet? ;)

    Crazy internet rumour started by Danny Baker that David Bowie is a special guest.

    No. However Gilmour and Madonna have shown up. Not together mind you.

    2 songs form Red Shoes have been named(Lily/MOP). Very curious to see what she does with the hits portion of the show and how fans/media react to the inevitable omissions. I also wonder if this part of the show will have some variation from night to night.

    Has anyone spotted Tori Amos in the audience, cribbing notes?
