U2 to Play Millenium Gig

U2 PLAYS GIG OF THE MILLENNIUM
U2 are among the 50 performers set to play at what promises to be the gig of
the new millennium - a 24-hour global concert to rival Live Aid, broadcast
live on the Internet on New Years Eve 1999. Eighty national and
international TV broadcasters have already pledged to broadcast parts of the
show live themselves. Other performers include STING, SINEAD O'CONNOR, PETER
GABRIEL and ALANIS MORISSETTE, and the POPE and NELSON MANDELA are among a
specially selected group of world leaders invited to deliver messages on
that day.
