    Diana Live in Brussels 1982

    As others have mentioned in a different thread, Ross had her 1982 "Work That Body World Tour" concert in Brussels, Belgium, recorded on film, as we know because she used the footage of that concert [[with Marvin Gaye) in her Missing You video [[based on what she's wearing, she must have invited Marvin on stage during "Work That Body"). It would be wonderful if that concert would be released on DVD! The Brussels concerts were on June 14 and 15; the two days before she was in Rotterdam, the Netherlands [[12 and 13 June). I don't know what she sang in Brussels, but I'm sure it must have been similar to the program in Rotterdam.

    Would be wonderful to have the concert released [[or any others that were filmed but shelved), as it was my very first Diana Ross concert ever.

    This is similar to the show I saw in August of 1982, but she didn't sing IT'S MY TURN, HOME, and GOD BLESS THE CHILD.

    This tour was the first concert I ever saw 1982 I was 13years old and won 2 tickets to see Diana Ross in Wembley Arena in the Daily Mirror newspaper I have been a avid concert goer ever since!! The UK opening of the leg of the tour was a bit of a disaster and the press dubbed it ' the World s most expensive soundtrack' saying that sound was so poor that miss Ross dropped the Mike and run of stage, but thankfully by the time I saw the show it was phenomenal and it was more or less the set from above and I believe the only time I've seen Remember Me live

    They had to work out the kinks after the UK opener, one can guess.

    I attended that first concert at Wembley Arena in June 82. For me the night was not one of Diana's finest moments. Apart from being angry about the sound, shouting at the band and throwing her mike down she also appeared annoyed with an unruly audience, especially when singing the LSTB segment. The friend i was with wanted to leave early. I believe the rest of the shows went smoothly without a hitch.

    I saw this tour in 1982 with a sold out show of 20,000 people at Oakland Coliseum arena. It was one if the most exciting concerts that I have ever attended. Diana got rave reviews. It was the best!!
