Comments:
Bryan Ferry did not intend doing any shows to promote his Boys and Girls album. He wanted to continue with the next album before thinking of playing live again. Bob Geldof managed to convince him to perform at what has been the biggest live event in the world ever.

Bryan formed a band with many of the session musicians he had been working with on Boys And Girls including Pink Floyd's Dave Gilmour. A number of technical difficulties marred Bryan's performance. Andy Newmark broke a drum skin with the first beat on his snare drum and Bryan had to perform most of his set holding 2 microphones as one wasn't working.
