DB strumming a twelve-string during last night’s show.
Paris: 15 million and 30…*
David Bowie’s second show at the Bercy may have been a little shorter than the previous evening, but it was certainly no less of a show for that. Last night’s gig was particularly enjoyable for those who have been following the tour, as there were five songs performed last night for the first time on the tour.
Those songs were: All The Young Dudes, I’ve Been Waiting For You, and three songs from Low: Sound And Vision, Be My Wife and Always Crashing In The Same Car.
David’s wish to rock things up a little became apparent when he stopped Breaking Glass about a minute in, only to start it again at a far ‘thrustier’ pace. Anyway, here are the 22 songs that were played:

01 New Killer Star
02 Pablo Picasso
03 All The Young Dudes
04 I’ve Been Waiting For You
05 Fame

We hope to launch a new A Reality Tour section on BowieNet shortly, that will not only be home to reviews and a few of my snaps from the shows, but also some great little bits of footage and some of your pictures and reviews too. Stay tuned for updates.
* OK, I admit 15million and thirty has nothing to do with the actual 18,000 capacity of Bercy… but I had to use Paris in the lyric quote somehow, and I refused to use the line from Aladdin Sane again!
