ETING & PROMOTION / SELLING POINTS
• DELIGHTFUL 2003 BROADCAST FROM THE BAHAMAS
• David Bowie’s Reality Tour was a worldwide concert tour in support of the Reality album. The tour commenced on 7 October 2003 at
the Forum Copenhagen, Denmark, continuing through Europe, North America, Asia, including a return to New Zealand and Australia
for the first time since the 1987 Glass Spider Tour. At over 110 shows, the tour was the longest of Bowie's career. A heart attack in late
June 2004 forced the cancellation of some dates near the end of the tour. Bowie retired from performing live in 2006, making this tour
his last. The whole thing grossed US$46 million, making it the ninth-highest-grossing tour of 2004.
• Bowie announced the tour in June 2003, intending to play to over a million people across 17 countries, and was billed as his first major
tour since the Outside Tour of 1995. Rehearsals began in July, with the band from his previous Heathen Tour mostly unchanged; Mark
Plati had other work booked, so guitarist Gerry Leonard was made the new bandleader. The band played a warm-up gig on 19 August
in New York to a small audience of about 500 people at The Chance Theater.
• The band performed in Europe across October and November ’03, after which they decamped to North America, playing in Montreal,
Canada, New York and Connecticut, before the band’s final show of the year, which took place at the Atlantis Paradise Island Hotel in
Nassau, The Bahamas on December 20th.
• A Sterling Bowie show, the performance was broadcast live across the USA and now features in its entirety on this new CD.
Bonus tracks here come from a French broadcast by Bowie, recorded for the TV music show Trafic Musique, broadcast on 4
September 2003.
