n answer to Martin Glatz' Dark Star interview on 28 June that year Oldfield had said:
"We'll have a fifty piece string orchestra, a couple of woodwind, an opera singer, two child sopranos, a rapper, a fifty piece choir, and we're going to make a documentary film to go along with the whole thing. We'll tour it. We would go in much the same way as Jean Michel Jarre does his things." The details were similar, still spectacular, but not quite the same as he envisaged at that time. The very impressive concert and light show are available on video.
"The Edinburgh show was an outdoor show and we can have fireworks and we can have lots of people and that kind of show is more like a big event, like a Jean-Michel Jarre type of thing and I'd love to do more of those - I love outdoor shows.
